Jombre?

Hello ladies!

You may be asking yourselves what in the world is jombre.. Well its just ombre but today is day that I was suppose to post my J mani for the ABC challenge and I completely forgot to do one. My ombre had to do for today so thats how Jombre came to life :)



Polishes I used were (from thumb to pinky): KICKS Philosophy, mixture of Philosophy and Depend 321, Depend 321, H&M Honey Im Home, mixture of Honey Im Home and a drop of black nail polish.


I hope you like it!

Thank you for stopping by! :) xx

*All of the nail polish I own I bought with my own money or received as a gift from friends, I don't get paid for any reviews, it's just my own thoughts.

ABC Challenge - H is for Halloween!

Hello ladies!

Im going to show you what I wore for Halloween :)

Im posting for the ABC Challenge today cause I was just too busy yesterday and by the time I was done with my earthly stuff it was around midnight. I couldnt get any good lighting for my pictures so I waited until today morning.


So.. you may say cloud mani for Halloween? Well, think of it as freaky candy! I planned to do something else entirely but I failed. I just wasnt able to paint decent looking pumpkins on my nails! I settled on clouds instead..


As to my ring ringer, this is a jack o' lantern with a kitty curved out :) Kitty didnt come out as evil-ish as I wanted to but this one is cute as well! Ring finger was done with the orange as a base, painted over with Liquid Vinyl (except for the little oval where the lantern was suppose to be), then I mixed bunch of colors to get the "glow of the light" in the lantern. Believe it or not I dont own any yellow polish :( I did mix together Jessica Pure Platinum, some silver glitter striper I found at the bottom of my polish box, a drop of H&M Mustard and a bunch of others I thought would fit into all of this. Then I used a black striper to paint my little cute kitty and top coat! Had to paint about 3 coats to get it evened out, kitty was pretty bumpy!


For the rest of my nails I used: Nordic Cap NP07 as a base color, H&M Je T'Amie (Im obsessed with this polish if you cant tell) and Orly Liquid Vinyl for the clouds. 

Thank you for stopping by! :) xx

ABC Challenge - G like Gadient!

Hey sweeties!

I've been so, so, so late with all the challenges! School got in the way, it's been very intense and I had time for just a few swatches but hopefully Im back on track.
So letter G today (I know, its not wednesday):


I used OPI Passion (probably my favorite nude jelly) and OPI Servin' Up Sparkle.


I started with 2 thin coats of  OPI Passion then sponged some  Servin' Up Sparkle onto my tips. Very delicate if I do say so myself.



Thank you for stopping by! :) xx

ABC for Llama Nails :)

Hello sweeties,

I recently joined a new facebook group called "Llama Nails" and we are going to be doing a one mani per week challenge in order of the letters of the alphabet! 

The rules are simple:

1. The Challenge will begin on September 12 and runs through March 6 (26 weeks for 26 letters)

2. You only need to do one manicure a week (and it's ok if you don't do every week) we know how life gets in the way.

3. Each week something in your manicure must begin with the letter for the week. It can be the name of the polish brand, the name of the polish, the technique, the stamp, the color, the item depicted on your nails. The sky's the limit!

4. There is a document that lists some ideas for each letter. Please feel free to add ideas and take ideas from that list.

5. We will begin posting on Wednesday's of each week. But if you are unable to post on Wednesday you may post for that letter any time up until the next Wednesday when the new letter begins.

6. I will create an album for each letter (unless someone else wants to do this) that we can post our pictures in.

7. Please feel free to post your blog link to each post. But if you do not have a blog, that is fine too!

8. Have fun, be creative, and as always....save the drama for the llama. Be kind to each other and lets make sure to support one another. We are all trying our best!

Pretty amazing huh? :)

Well here is my A:


A - simply abstract animal print! I know it probably isnt so unique but it is to me! I also loved how my IsaDora Ocean Dive shows perfectly over a black base :) I went for normal gradient + stamping on my index and ring finger (Ocean Dive and Surfers Paradise -both by IsaDora) but wanted to kind of reverse it on my middle finger and pinky. On those two I painted 2 thin coats of Orly Liquid Vinyl and stamped over with Ocean Dive and Surfers Paradise. I did try to get a bit of gradient looking stamp but I didnt mix the colors well and the results are what they are :)


I loved Ocean Dive for stamping and Im sure you are going to see more of it coming soon :)
Thanks for stopping by! xx
