Glam Polish Unicorn Sparkles

I have another Glam Polish from the lovely Rachel for you today.
This one is Glam Polish Unicorn Sparkles. This mani is two coats. I didn't have to do any fishing for glitter and application was wonderful. I took the photos in sunlight so you can see the beautiful sparkles.

Glam Polish Mars Attacks

Today's mani is Glam Polish Mars Attacks. I chose to leave it as it is to let this beauty stand for itself.

Glam Polish Vegas Baby!

Rachel of Glam Polish makes beautiful polishes! I got my hands on some and will be featuring them here over the next few days.

Today's polish is Glam Polish Vegas Baby! I layered it over Wet n Wild French White Creme and did an accent using the splatter technique on the other nails.

Super Mario Bros

I was feeling the need to do some intense nail art. Luckily when I showed my husband the theme, he was on board and watches the baby while I art-ed it up.

Here are the results!

I created two collages and couldn't decide which one I liked best so I decided to use both here!

Neon skittle

I did this mani using Cosmo Girl Wild Thing (pink), Sinful Colors Dream On (purple), and Sinful Colors Why Not (blue). The neon glitter topper is Hit Polish Not So Plain Jane (she makes amazing glitter toppers; check her out!!!).

Shades of Blue

I joined a new nail group called Nail Polish Challenge. There are new themes every Monday and Thursday. It's super laid back, and there's no pressure to complete all the challenges. Plus if you don't change your polish every day (there's no way I'd have time for this!), it gives you a bit of time between each challenge day.

Today's challenge is shades of blue.
I used Hit Polish Superman as the base. The accent nail was done with L'Oreal Notting Hill Blues, A-England Tristam, and Zoya Liberty.

Beachy Nails with Zoya Godiva


I know this has been done before, but I just had to do my own beach nails with Zoya Godiva.

Crab is done mostly with Zoya Sookie. Starfish is Sinful Colors Orange Cream. It's hard to see but I did footprints on the ring finger and a heart with A + J in the middle on the pinkie finger. I did those using Essie Brooch The Subject.

1 coat of Julie G Rock Candy in the sun and the shade. It went on great and had a good dry time.

I stamped on the zebra print with Konad Black and went over some parts that didn't fully stamp.
