'Shuffle the Deck' + a Big Thank You!

Hello, dear followers! 

I just wanted to start this post off by announcing that I just reached 70 GFC followers and over 50 Facebook followers! :party 

I know this may not seem like much at all to most of you, but when I made this blog three months ago I was ecstatic to have FIVE followers, so 70 is a huge deal to me. With that said, I want to say a great big THANK YOU to all of you that follow my little blog. I started it because, obviously, I am very passionate about all things nails and wanted to be a part of the nail blogging community so I could connect with others who have the same passion that I do and to learn more about it. I've had the best time blogging and so far I've met some really lovely and talented ladies. You all are so great! I can't wait to meet even more people and see where my baby blog and I are three months from now. ^_^ 

/end mushy speech

NOW, THEN. For tonight, I have a polish from Wet N Wild's "Spoiled" line called Shuffle the Deck . :e

It's like a little casino in a bottle! :L



Two coats of Shuffle the Deck over Sally Hansen's  Heartbeat Frost.
Excuse the smushed looking middle finger. :P
Shuffle the Deck is a mix of medium sized red and silver and smaller black hexagonal glitter in a clear base. I'm really fond of this polish and the Spoiled line, in general. They can be found at your local drugstore for just $1.99, and they have a wide variety of polishes to choose from, as well! If you haven't checked it out yet, you should! :D

Thanks for reading!

How Do You Lilac Glitter Gradients?

Good day, all!

Today I'm going to show you guys my first ever attempt at a glitter gradient. :$ 

First I used OPI Do You Lilac It?
*Artificial light, no flash.

Then used NOPI One Less Lonely Glitter for my gradient.

*Natural light, no flash. 
Excuse the slight color differences. I couldn't get a good shot of the glitter inside so I took it outside. Meh, that's purple polish for you, hardly ever photographing right. >.< The color is a little darker and way more lilac in real life; the first picture is more color accurate than the second. It's really pretty, though. ^_^ So what do y'all think? I actually like it a lot! 

Thank you all for reading! <3

Glitter Badge!

Hey girl heyyy!

So my bestie over at Simply Beauty. gave me this awesome badge the other day, and I believe now is a good time to make a post about it! 


Yay! I've been a glitter polish fan for a looong time; I'm pretty sure my first polish ever was a glitter. :P Now loose glitter that gets all over the place and doesn't come off for anything... not so much, lol. Now, to be worthy of this badge I believe I must post a picture of my favorite glitter, but I could only narrow it down to five and I made sure that they're polishes I've worn before. Otherwise I'd have like 15 to show. o_O So here we go!

I chose to wear China Glaze Love Marilyn for this post. This is a new favorite, for sure.
*Artificial Light, no flash
*Natural light, no flash
The other four that I couldn't let go unmentioned.
L-R: OPI Teenage Dream, Servin' Up Sparkle, Rainbow Connection, Milani Purple Gleam 

L-R: Purple Gleam, Rainbow Connection, Servin' Up Sparkle, Teenage Dream
 And there you have it! These are my top five favorite glitters (in no particular order) thus far. I'd like to thank Taylor for passing this along to me, soo... THANKS! :P She has an awesome beauty blog and if you haven't checked it out yet, go do it now! :i 
Thanks for reading, y'all!
