China Glaze: Boundary of Memory (The Giver Collection)

Hi all! I hope you are all having a good weekend so far! Chris and I spent the day relaxing, and we did make a grocery run. Now he's playing Destiny. I love playing, and I love watching him play almost as much. He's so good, and always knows what he's doing. I, on the other hand, am still learning.

On to polish! Tonight, I have for you Boundary of Memory from the China Glaze The Giver Collection. I got it on clearance when I last went to Sally Beauty, and it is a stunner! Boundary of Memory is a clear base packed with black, silver, and gold glitter.

FingerPaints: Wanna Gogh Dance?

Hi all! Ready for this week to be over? I am! It's been crazy cold in Kansas, and I am looking forward very much to some snugglin'! Even though I complain about the cold, I've been crazy enough to go for runs in the below-freezing weather. It's been tough, but far easier than running on a treadmill at the gym. I hate the treadmill. It's totally a mental thing.

Anyway, on to fun stuff! I have Wanna Gogh Dance? for you tonight, a metallic light dusty purple color.

Wet n Wild: Halloween 2014 Limited Edition Collection: Roadwork

Hi all! Happy Tuesday! I hope you are all having a good week so far. I typically have Monday off, so Tuesday is always my first day back to work. Not too bad, because I get to spend more time with Chris and my girls, even though Chris and I are fighting over the PS4. Just kidding (no, but seriously, we take turns lol).

I have a new color for you for you tonight. I have Roadwork, a dark metallic gray from Wet Wild's 2014 Halloween Collection. I used 2 coats in the photo below.

Spoiled by Wet n Wild: My Silicone Popped

Hi all! Happy Monday! I hope your week is off to a good start. Today I have another pink color for you. My Silicone Popped from Wet n Wild's Spoiled line (CVS exclusive) is a shiny Congo pink/salmon creme.

Side by Side: SinfulColors Vacation Time + Wet n Wild Casting Call

Hi all! Happy Sunday! Did we all enjoy the exciting football playoffs? Chris and I just finished watching the Cowboys, and it was a stressful game, particularly at the beginning. I'd suggested going to the bar, but he decided to stay home because they lost the last time we went to a local bar. Superstitious. Go Cowboys!

Anyway, on to poliiishhh! I decided to compare 2 polishes that looked very similar in the bottle, Vacation Time from SinfulColors and Casting Call from Wet n Wild's Wild Shine line.

China Glaze: Shower Together

Hi all! Happy New Year!! I really hope everyone had a great time celebrating the arrival of 2015 with friends. We didn't go out, so it was a quiet one for us. I did get to play Destiny!

I tried out my third China Glaze polish tonight, Shower Together. It is celadon/peacock blue, and just a gorgeous creme.

China Glaze: Turned Up Turquoise and Your Touch

Hi all! I hope your week is off to a good start. I went to Sally Beauty this weekend and added a couple new colors to my collection. The China Glaze polishes were 2 for $11, so I got a couple AND used my birthday coupon. I already had 2 China Glaze polishes, from the Hologlam collection, but I have not used them.

First up is Turned Up Turquoise, a green turquoise with microshimmer that dries matte (that was surprising). My camera could not capture the true color of the polish, but let me tell you, it is greener than the picture shows.

Dallas Cowboys Nail Art, Part II

Hi all! I decided to try Cowboys nail art once again, since today is their last game of the regular season...and I wanted to surprise Chris with it.

Here is the final result.

New York Color Long Wearing Enamel: Broadway Burgundy Frost

Hi all! I hope you are all having a good weekend so far! I'm very happy, given that the PlayStation Network is finally up and running again. I was able to play Destiny this morning, which was great because it was still a little early and people weren't up yet ;)

I have something new for you today. I decided to try one of my never-worn colors, Broadway Burgundy Frost from New York Color's Long Wearing Enamel line. Well, let me tell you, I really like this color. Despite the name, Broadway Burgundy Frost is neither burgundy nor frosty. It is a red jelly with red microglitter.

New York Color: Fashion Queen 2014 Fall Collection

Hi all! I have a new post for you today, swatches of the NYC Fashion Queen 2014 Fall Collection. It's a little late, given that fall is well over, but I hadn't really used any of the colors (I did use Crown Gold for UCLA nail art). I loved them all, and I'm disappointed that it took me this long to try them out!

FingerPaints: Where Art Renoir?

Hi all! I'm sorry, I was gone again away, this time longer. The reason for this is that I spent (spend) a lot of my time playing Destiny. Chris bought a PS4 and the game a couple months ago. I had never played a video game before, so I was addicted. I've honestly been playing more than Chris himself; I don't think he's too thrilled about that haha.

I've been interpreting at work a lot lately - lots of sick kiddos. I'm pretty sure I caught the stomach bug that's been going around during one of my interpreting sessions. I had to leave work early on Friday because the body ache and nausea were too much to handle. This is a little bit of a bummer, since my birthday is in a couple days. We didn't get to celebrate this weekend, but I'm sure we're doing something tomorrow - if my headache is gone.

On to polish. I went to Sally Beauty a couple weeks ago and left with a new bottle of polish. I'd been looking for a black polish with glitter - any color - and I found Where Art Renoir?, a black shade with silver microglitter. I had to have it, and I especially loved the name.

FingerPaints: Titian Tints

Hi all! I have something new for you tonight. As I've said before, I'm going for something other than cremes, so I decided to go with one of my latest purchases from Sally Beauty, a FingerPaints color.

Here is Titian Tint, a rosy-copper shade with a metallic finish.
