Devious and Frenzy

I can't believe I haven't worn this one yet! Sinful Colors Frenzy is one of my favorite glitters EVER. It's a really thick purple and blue confetti-type glitter that looks awesome layered over purple, I think. I just really love this manicure. And the Ulta Devious is just a great purple. Not too exciting or much to talk about, but I'm kind of a fan!

So I did two coats of Ulta Devious and then only one coat of Frenzy because Sinful Colors actually tends to make their glitter quite thick. And then a coat of Gel-ous to get rid of the bumps, and lastly a coat of SV. Love!

Harry Potter nails!!

Alright so I'm a bit of a Harry Potter nerd. Figured I'd rip that band-aid off right away lol. That's why not only did I go see the last (*sob*) movie at midnight but I had to do theme nails!

I know they look a little messy here, but I was actually quite proud of them! I did Gryffindor colors on four of my nails and then I kinda wanted a magical something on my pinky so I used Sonia Kashuk Starry Night (and then added Sinful Colors Queen of Beauty on top for a bit of extra sparkle, which actually backfired a bit because the silver glitter is so thick that you couldn't see the sparkles in the Starry Night, which is actually quite gorgeous. Guess I should've left well-enough alone.).

For Gryffindor, I painted two coats of Rimmel's Burgundy Flirt and then put a coat of SV on top. After that had completely dried, I put two pieces of tape on each of my nails and did OPI Bling Dynasty for the gold. I was kinda going for a scarf-y look, but I'm kind of proud of it!

Anybody else do Harry Potter nails??

Jolly Holly, Hi-Def 04, and Call You Later

Okay, so I know this manicure is ridiculously St. Patrick's Day-y for summer, but I don't even care! I love green and I'm not going to apologize for throwing an absurd amount of it on my nails on a day that is not celebrated with drinking green beer (which would match my nails perfectly, by the way)!

Anywho, small rant aside, this is very probably my next St. Patrick's Day manicure (though I don't partake in the excessive drinking of green anything, I do enjoy dressing up for the occasion). The darker green on three of my fingers is China Glaze Jolly Holly and the lime green is Sally Hansen Hi-Def 04 (I actually wore the Sally Hansen color to my high school graduation, which made the the most daring person ever, apparently). I then put Sinful Colors Call You Later glitter over top of both of them because I was apparently experiencing some sort of green fever. I did two coats of Jolly Holly, four coats of the Sally Hansen because it's extremely opaque, and then a generous helping of glitter because I'm in looove with it. I covered all of that with a coat (from a brand new bottle!) of SV.

(And I'd like to apologize for the large number of parentheticals in this post. Heheee)

Looooove, right???
