Happy Halloween Everyone!
I wanted to get into the Halloween mood so I decided to do a quick manicure. At first I wanted to use the blank crackle polish that’s why I used a white base coat but for some reason I ended up using the Bundle Monster plate instead.
Colors used:
- Basecoat – Zoya Purity (2 coats)
- Bundle Monster Plate – BM13
- Nail Art – Koand special blank polish
- Nail Art – Zoya Posh Mat
- Top coat – Sally Hansen – Clear’d for takeoff #130 (to seal in everything)
I randomly printed spider webs all over my nails. Than I added a spider for color. You guys like my manicure? My sister mentioned that it would have looked better if I were to use a black base color and white for the webs…I totally agree but at the time I was planning to use the crackle nail polish.
Well Happy Halloween Everyone! Eats lots of candy?

My sister was nice enough to send me these pictures so I can share with each one of you. Color is very pretty and also the flowers.
I believe she used Sally Hansen – insta-dri fast dry polish #180 Rose Run

Another pedicure. I’ve done this over a week ago and just now decided to take some pictures to post them up. It’s a very simple and girly pedicure…I think…
These are the polishes I picked and steps I used:
Sally Hansen – Shall We Dance #160 (for the color)
OPI – Traffic-Stopper Cooper (for the shimmer)
Sally Hansen – Clear’d for takeoff #130 (to seal in everything)
Step one: I wanted a neutral shade so I picked Sally Hansen – Shall we dance. It’s a very nude pink shade. Very pretty. This polish is from the Complete Salon Manicure line. So it comes with a very wide brush which makes application very easy. I love polishes from that line.
Step two: Once the color coat dries I applied the OPI – Traffic-Stopper Cooper. Just to add a little glitter, a little bling to my manicure. I love the cooper color. And it goes very nicely with the nude pink. Since this polish comes with small and big glitter you do have to play around with the brush and polish to spread things around.
Step three: Once the glitter coat dries apply the final clear coat to seal everything up. Prefect!
Sorry about the tan lines. And as you can see this mani is old…my nails are beginning to grow out. Well enjoy! Hope you enjoy my post!

Flip flop season is here. I’ve been coloring my toes but the last couple times I didn’t take pictures to post. I just don’t like how my fat toes look. hehe. Well if I don’t post this time than I really have another else to post so what the heck.
I’ve used this color polishes below in the past. The only new thing I’m showing here is the plate image. Again, the stamping polish is kinda light but it does look nice in the sun light. It makes my pedicure very shimmery. 
Sally Hansen “Back to the Fuchsia” #530 was used for the base color and Wet n Wild - 236C Silvivor was used for the stamping color. The image plate used here is the Bundle Monster (1st Set) plate BM19.
Thanks for coming back to view this site. I will hopefully post more soon.

I’m feeling very patriotic this year. So why not do an Independence Day mani. For the base color I used Posh/Mat (Zoya). To my surprise I couldn’t find much reds in my collection. Maybe I had lent them all out… Well, love this Mat color. Application was very smooth. And since I was planning to use some stamps I only applied one coat here.
Second step, I wanted to add some blue. I purchased a bottle of Lagoon (SinfulColors – Nail Art Polish). It was $1.99 at Walgreens. It’s my first time using these kind of polishes. They come with very thin/fine brushes so you can paint designs on your nails. Since I don’t have steady hands I wasn’t able to draw anything too fancy. Also no nail looked the same. Oh well…
Third step…I used a image from the BM21 Plate (from the Bundle Monster 1st Set). And since I have red and blue already I used the Konad White special nail polish. I picked the star image here below.
And to finish it off I used the Sally Hansen Salon Clear Coat (Clear’d for takeoff).
So what do you think? Sorry I was too lazy to clean things off. Any some of my pictures are dark and blurry. I have a new camera coming so hopefully I’ll be able to take better pictures.
Happy 4th Everyone! Have fun and be safe!

I’ve been trying to find a stamping polish to use with my Konad and Monster bundle nail plates. Instead of buying the Konad special polishes…I want to find something I can easily pick up at my local drugstore or malls. I’ve noticed other bloggers out there also use other brands but unfortunately I haven’t had luck finding the brands they purchased.
So this week I picked up this silver glitter polish (Wet n Wild - 236C Silvivor). It looked very thick and I thought I might work with my plates. Tried it but again it didn’t show up that well. This bottle cost me $1.99 at Walgreens.
Also lately I’ve noticed a lot of new Crackle polishes out there. They seem so cool so I got to give that a try too. I purchased the OPI – Black Shatter for $9.50 at Ultra Beauty. I have to say…this polish works great. If you’re to lazy to use the stamping plates but still want to have some design this is the perfect way to go. It’s fast and easy.
I’ve posted some pictures…Hope you like them.
These are all the polishes I used on my nails
Sally Hansen “Back to the Fuchsia” #530 used base color and Wet n Wild - 236C Silvivor used for the stamping color. As you can see…the polish isn’t thick or dark enough so the stamping image is very light…But still pretty.
Wet n Wild - 236C Silvivor used here. Two coats used. Application is very smooth. Color is very silver and glittery. Very nice!!
Wet n Wild - 236C Silvivor used as the base color and than OPI – Black Shatter used on top. Isn’t the crackle effect cute! Very easy application on both. After nail dried I did put a clear top coat because I was afraid the black polish might chip off easily.
Four different polishes and you can do so much with all of it. So pretty and so much fun! Hope you enjoy this post.

I have been lazy and haven’t used stamps in a while. I had a purple shirt so I decided to use a purple polish to match. I used the Sephora by OPI in Domestic Goddess. It was a little messy because the full nail plates are not big enough so I have to stamp multiple times to fill up the empty spaces. I still don’t know why they can’t make the images larger. There is room on the plate.

It’s the first time I used this color on my whole nail. I guess I’ve always been worried on how it would look on me. I’m aways used to using light colors or pinks and reds. And this green is just so different. I tried it and I loved it!!
What I used:
- Sally Hansen Diamond Strength Nail Hardener for a Basecoat 1 coat
- OPI polish (Leaf Him at the Alter) 2 coats
- Sally Hansen Diamond Strength Nail Hardener for a topcoat 1 coat
The polish is very shimmery and it goes on very quickly and smoothly. It dried pretty quickly too. Just love it!
And in the background of these pictures you can tell I’m getting ready to eat my lunch. It’s Korean Bibimbp. It’s a rice bowl with assorted vegetables and meats. YUMMY!

Sorry guys…it’s been a while since I’ve posted. I’m not sure why but the days seems so much shorter now a days and I could never find time to send out a post. I now have a bunch of pictures piling up waiting to be posted. Hope you enjoy them.
I wanted something simple. So I picked a light pink and did a simple manicure. And to add a small touch an added a small flower to the ring fingers.
What I used:
- Sally Hansen Diamond Strength Nail Hardener for a Basecoat 1 coat
- Sally Hansen Complete Salon Manicure polish (#160 – Shall We Dance) 2 coat
- Konad white polish with either a Fauxnad or Gcool plates (I’m not sure why but I can locate the image anymore so I can’t give you the exact plate number)
- Sally Hansen Diamond Strength Nail Hardener for a topcoat 1 coat
At the end I tried using the Sally Hansen Cuticle Treatment. (Name: Quick Care Cuticle Treatment) It has a very sweet smell to it. I’m not sure if this really works because my cuticles is aways still so dry. It’s also very oily so you can’t really do anything after you apply it onto your cuticle nail area. I believe it cost me around $9 bucks. Since I’m not that pleased with this product, I don’t think I’ll buy this product again.
