Zoya Pippa and polka dots! :D

Good afternoon everyone!

A couple of days ago I decided to give Zoya Pippa a try, and I sure wasn't disappointed! Pippa is a bright, but non neon, buttery yellow creme, and it's totally great! This is a swatch pic with no base or top coats.

As I was wearing CC Bizerk Turq on my toes, I decided to spice my tips up a bit by adding some polka dots :D I loved the end result so much I wore this for 3 days straight and only changed because well I can't stand keeping one color too long!!

Enjoy and I hope you have a great day!! :D

LA Girl Funkadelic :D

Good morning everyone!!

Here's my weekend NOTD, LA Girl Funkadelic :D It is part of the Disco Brites collection which is supposed to glow under black light, but I haven't tested that part yet lol! Funkadelic is a bright teal-ish blue that looks almost blue in sunlight on my warm skin, and definitely more teal inside. It applied beautifully and was completely opaque and even in only 2 thin coats. This pic is only a swatch with no base or top coats as it shows the color better.

Enjoy and have a great Monday! :D

ChG Blue Island Iced Tea :D

Good evening everyone!!

Quick post before going to bed... Here's China Glaze Blue Island Iced Tea, a beautiful blue foil from the Bahamas Blues collection. This is the 3rd color I wear from that collection, and it is the 3rd color I love! The application is very nice, and the finish is so sparkly that it makes you forget the little bubbles I got ;-) In fact, it is so sparkly in the sun that I had to take the pic facing the sunlight in order to see anything!

I decided I wanted to make this look as swirling water, so I added a swirly pattern from image plate M63 in Konad Princess Blue Peal. I really really like the finished mani! :D

Enjoy and have a great night!! :D

BB Couture Zuma Wave Rider multicolored KOTD :D

Good afternoon everyone!!

I'd been thinking about trying a multicolored konadicure for a while now, and when I couldn't decide which color to use over Zuma Wave Rider I decided it was time to do it! I have to say I'm quite pleased with the end result!! This is plate M73 with Nubar Lavender, Orange Cream and Lemon Sorbet for the design :D

Enjoy and have a great day!! :D

BB Couture: Zuma Wave Rider :D

Good evening everyone!

My NOTD now is BB Couture For Nails Zuma Wave Rider, and now that's much better! I'd describe it as a baby blue creme with a hint of lilac/lavender in the background which really makes it pop against my skin. In fact, it kinda reminds me of OPI Mod About You in how it glows without being a neon :D It's also interesting that it really looks blue until you compare it side by side with a pure blue like OPI Just Groovy, and you can see that slightly in the darker parts of the pic. This was my first time wearing a BB Couture and I have to say I am very impressed by the quality of the polish and the application! You can find these at OverallBeauty.

Enjoy and have a great night! :D
