Orange paired grey is one of my favorite color combinations. I started with Zoya Beatrix & then added a swooping french tip in Zoya London. Easy enough to do on both hands!

Sation Half Moon & French Nails
Sation Love At First Byte seemed like an excellent base for some classic nail art. I used hole reinforcements to add half moons & french tips in Sation Chatty Catty. Using the hole reinforcements as guides makes this manicure easy enough for anyone to try for both hands. One of my all time favorite manicures!

Zoya Dotted Flower French
This is very out of my comfort zone, so flowery, but I like how it turned out. I started with the drop dead gorgeous Zoya Julie, then added flowers with Zoya Shelby & Zoya Stacy with my dotting tools.

Heart Parts Valentine's Day Nails
This manicure drew a small crowd when I went shopping the other day. I must say it's one of my recent favorites even though it's bit messy since I did it in a hurry. I just really love this color combination! I started with Sation Overdressed Party, then added the heart parts in Sation Violet Flare, finished with an outline of Sinful Secret Admirer.
Sation polishes will be available for purchase soon. You can check out their facebook page for updates.

Maybelline Blue Water & My Favorite French Manicure

I know many of you hate this polish & understandably so, but I couldn't resist buying it when I found it at the Dollar Tree. I gave it to Ashley, since my nails are a slightly stained. Blue Water is pictured on her nails with 2 coats. It's so sheer! You're thinking "Aaghhh! Why would anyone want such a polish?"


But wait! I know Blue Water is pretty scary by itself, but Ashley transformed it into one of my new favorite manicures! She added french tips in Icing My Blue Heaven and now I think it's gorgeous!



Such a lovely effect! So if you picked up the Water polishes, don't despair! Great job Ashley!

Revlon Gum Drop & A French Manicure

This is 3 coats of Revlon Gum Drop. I love this one! It's a drop dead gorgeous lilac jelly. It has a sweet, but not overpowering scent while applying. Later, my nails smelled faintly of cotton candy.

The next day I added Sinful Colors Mint Apple on my tips. Unexpectedly, this ended being a new favorite manicure. So nice when things are pleasantly surprising.


Don't forget to check out my store. Great deals on name brand clothing and more!

Wet n Wild Shield & A Skinny Funky French Manicure

This is 3 coats of Wet n Wild Shield. It's a gorgeous taupey foil with silver and copper bits too. The formula is nice but the brush is super stubby with a big round lid. I got used too it though. Ashley loves this one so much that she bought a back up!

I used Zoya Kristi for the french manicure. I love the color combination but it would have looked much better if all of my nails were the same shape!

A Few Zoya Reds From Wicked & Wonderful Fall Collections & Nail Art
Zoya Kym is a lovely rusty red with glass-flecked, gold shimmer. This is 2 easily applied coats. Not my favorite with my skintone but a great color for fall nonetheless.
Next up we have Zoya Stacy. I think this one is gorgeous! This is 2 coats. I tried a french manicure with Zoya Cheryl.
Zoya Kristi is my new favorite red! Flawless, 2 coat application. Perfect red creme, neither to cool or too warm, just perfect! I used Zoya Kelly and my smARTnails stickers too for this manicure.
Here are my overall thoughts on both of Zoya's fall collections, Wicked & Wonderful.

Toma Purple Mist To Grey Mist & A French Manicure
I've never posted NINE pictures of any polish before, but this one deserves it! Toma Mood Changing Purple Mist to Grey Mist is one of the most unique colors I've ever seen! I have no idea how to describe it so I'll just let you look at the pretty pictures. Gorgeous!







I did a french manicure using China Glaze LOL. I didn't end up liking the color combination as much as I thought I would though
.

I would buy this in a heartbeat if I could find it anywhere!!! What do you think ladies, should we petition Mad Beauty, who took over Toma, to bring this color back?
