Happy 4th!

Happy Independence Day everyone!

For this mani, I used Zoya Lisa (2 coats) and OPI Swimsuit...Nailed It! (2 coats) for the ring finger and thumb. I stamped the stars using Mash plate #49 and Konad special polish in white. I stamped the wavy stripes using Cheeky plate #4 also with Konad white.
Super simple and festive!

Hope everyone is having a wonderful holiday! See you again soon!
Peace&Polish!

OPI Mod About You

**Products in this post were purchased by me with my own funds. I am not sponsored by or affiliated with any companies mentioned.**

How about something short and sweet? =)
This is my second favorite color ever, coming in just behind China Glaze's beautiful but impossible to photograph Flip Flop Fantasy. Mod About You is my perfect light pink. Soft, milky, girly, beautiful! Every time I wear this color, I catch myself staring at my nails. It's just such a calm and soothing color. And I always feel a little bit sad when it comes time to take it off.
On to the pics.

I purchased Mod About You from Ulta for around $8.50. You can now purchase OPI polishes at www.ulta.com.
Thanks for stopping by! Have a wonderful day!
Peace & Polish!

Color Club Eternal Beauty

**All products in this post were purchased by me with my own funds**

Another holo today. =) I do love my holos.
This is Color Club Eternal Beauty. Such a fitting name!

This is two coats over a base coat of Essie Feed Me with one coat of Seche Vite on top. Again, top coat does not dull the holo at all!

The Color Club Halo Hues are available at enospring.com, 8ty8beauty.com, head2toebeauty.com, and transdesign.com. I'm sure there are other retailers that sell the Halo Hues, but the sellers I've listed I have actually had experience with, so I feel comfortable recommending them.
Thanks for stopping by! See you next time!
Peace & Polish,

Color Club Over The Moon

**All products in this post were purchased by me with my own funds**

I love holos. Like crazy! The Color Club Halo Hues are some of the best holos I've come across. This is Over The Moon, a beautiful blue.

Camera Flash
This is two coats over a coat of Essie Feed Me base coat and a coat of Seche Vite on top. Top coat did not dull the holo effect at all in my opinion. Formula was excellent for a holo. No balding, no streaks. In some lights it looks like my picture, and in others it's not quite as dark. In all lights, it's beautiful! 
Natural sunlight.
The Color Club Halo Hues are available on enospring.com, 8ty8beauty.com, head2toebeauty.com, and transdesign.com. I have purchased from all four of these sellers in the past and can vouch for them all.

Thanks for stopping by!
Peace & Polish,

Fish Egg Wedding Nails

**All products in this post were purchased by me with my own funds**

My sweet friend and coworker tied the knot yesterday, and these are her wedding nails I painted for her. =)
This is two coats of Sinful Colors Snow Me White with Essie Shine of the Times on top. On the accent nail I painted the same two colors, then added white/clear  microbeads that I purchased at Michael's. I borrowed the idea for these nails from another blogger who basically did the same nails minus the french tip, and now, for the life of me, I can't remember who the blogger was and can't seem to find the original picture anywhere! If anyone knows the picture I'm referring to (or if it was your picture) PLEASE let me know! I would dearly love to give credit to whomever I stole borrowed this idea from. (EDIT: I finally found the original artist. It was Lacquer and Lattes. Click the link to see her original post.) Thanks for stopping by!
Peace & Polish
