Silver Spots

Hi loves! Todays manicure is a bit on the darker less girly side but I love it. Black and Silver is one of my favorite color combinations.

China Glaze Liquid Leather and China Glaze devotion (in hand) for the spots. Bundle Monster plate BM-221 Devotion is one of the best polishes for stamping EVER! It transfers so well on the stamp. I definitely recommend trying this one out if you are a stamping beginer. 


Thank you for reading!

I can't wait for Halloween!

So I decided to test out my Skull Bundle Monster plate...this is kind of a nail fail but I still kind of like it. I definitely got the Halloween vibe from this mani. I LOVE Halloween! Actually I love every Holiday from October to January. My favorite part of Halloween is seeing all of the little kids dressed up, I buy WAY too much candy every year and completely OD on it. hahaha

China Glaze Liquid leather for the base and China Glaze Devotion for the Silver design using Bundle  Monster Plate BM-211 for the skull and Konad M57 for the fishnet.


Also I am sorry for the lack of blog posts recently....you can blame this...


Thank you for reading I hope you all are having a good day!

O.P.I Black Shatter Review!

Hey loves! Here is yet another manicure floating around on the interwebs featuring O.P.I Black Shatter...hahaha. I am sure most of you have seen or used this polish or something similar but here is my take on it!

Two coats of Not Like The Movies..a pretty silvery..green..purple duo chrome. This polish changes colors depending on the lighting and angles. It's really pretty, it reminds of dolphin skin..ha ha I know that sounds weird but it does...and I am pretty weird so what ever. :)

One coat of the Black Shatter from O.P.I  on my completely dry manicure. It is so cool to watch the shatter take effect I watched almost every nail..ha ha. I was fascinated. It happens almost instantly and dries quickly too! I have seen where people have left it just like this with the Matte Shatter effect..But I wanted to seal everything in and make it SHINE!


I added TWO coats of Seche Vite top coat because I like my nails to feel smooth and 1 coat wasn't cutting it..I could still feel the texture of the Shatter polish. The top coat makes everything pretty and complete. I can't stop looking at my nails ha ha.


I will admit that I have said in the past I wasn't a fan of  the crackle or shatter look but I completely take it back! I had never done it on my nails until this post and I am a fan. I think it looks really cool. I will try it with other bases but I am pretty sure I will prefer it with a base that changes colors. This with a Holographic!! OH MY! I am sure it looks amazing! Hmmmmm..Now I am thinking of which Holo I want to try it with. ha ha. What are your thoughts on this effect? What combinations do you think would work? I am pretty sure I will be picking up the China Glaze Crackle polishes in all of the colors. Thanks for reading!
