OPI - Muir Muir On The Wall

Over the weekend I decided to use my Ultra coupon and pick up a couple of polishes. One that I grabbed was Muir Muir On The Wall. I absolutely love this shade!!!

Vampy colors are perfect for fall and now that it is officially fall, I can start wearing them all the time!!





 
Polishes Used:
-OPI - Nail Envy
-OPI - Muir Muir On The Wall
-Glisten & Glow - HK Girl Topcoat

I am wearing two coats of MMOTW here. I love all the different shimmers in this shade, it looks black, brown, burgundy, purple, gold. lol. Just gorgeous for the season. I plan on wearing this to work a lot this season!

Did you pick up any of the shades from the San Francisco Collection? I only have this one so far but may be heading back to the store to grab a couple more.

OPI - My Boyfriend Scales Walls

Over the weekend I picked up a bottle of OPI's My Boyfriend Scales Walls, at my local Ulta on sale. And Score! I love this color :)





Polishes Used:
-OPI - Nail Evy
-OPI - My Boyfriend Scales Walls
-No Time

The application of this polish was great, it applied smoothly and was completely opaque in two coats. I am pretty sure I'm like the last person to finally buy this polish but its a super pretty white/gray color. This is definitely going to be one of my new go-to colors. 

Also, I am trying to switch up my photos and try my hand at bottle shots and a new watermark. What do you think? Your honest feedback is appreciated.

Hope all of you lovely readers are having a good week.

OPI - Mariah Carey Liquid Sand Polishes - Part 1

Earlier this month I purchased the Mariah Carey Liquid Sand Polish mini set at Ulta. I had seen these all over the blogging world and really wanted to try them myself. I wasn't sure if I would like the feel of these polishes but I actually like them and couldn't stop touching them all day at work.

Today I will be showing you two of the four polishes that I purchased.

First, The Impossible:






Second, Can't Let Go:





I wore two coats of polish with each of these colors. I can't get over how much I like these! I will be showing you the rest of the Liquid Sand Set later this week :)

Have you tried these polishes? Do you love them or hate them?

Essie - Where's My Chauffeur & Ulta - Walking On Broken Glass

Here is a really cute simple look, using one of my favorite colors, teal!!! Both of these are untrieds, mainly because they are both fairly new to me, I couldn't let these babies sit in the untried pile too long!





Polishes Used:
-OPI - Nail Envy
-Essie - Where's My Chauffeur
-Ulta - Walking On Broken Glass
-OTD

Isn't this a really pretty combo? Both of these colors are super pretty and had really great application. I have on two coats of Where's My Chauffeur and for the accent nail, one coat of Walking On Glass overtop :) It's a pretty dense glitter, and I like it!

I got the Essie from my sister-in-law for Christmas, what were some of your favorite Christmas polishes?

Let It Snow! Challenge - Christmas/Holidays

Happy Saturday! Good thing yesterday wasn't the end of the world; because we wouldn't have been able to see all the ladies cute Christmas/Holiday themed manis!

I decided to do something simple with this theme, I just couldn't decide so it's sort of a cop-out, but here we go:





Polishes Used:
-Tammy Taylor - L.A. Red
-Ulta - X-Dry
-Glequins from BSP

I started with a base polish of Tammy Taylor's L.A. Red; this was in my untried pile and it's a very pretty red, however, it does photo a little "tomato-y". I added the silver and green glequins for a fun pop of glitter. Overall, very simple, but would be cute with an all black look for the holidays. 

Hope you all have a good holiday season and make sure to check out the other ladies looks!

Ulta - Kiss My Glass

Happy Monday! Lucky for me I have a vacation day today, so that's always fun! I am hoping to get those last minute Christmas gifts picked up and taken care of today. Are you done with your Christmas/Holiday shopping yet?

Here we have Ulta - Kiss My Glass:





Polishes Used:
-OPI - Nail Envy
-Ulta - Kiss My Glass
-OTD

I have 2 coats on for the pictures, but since this is a sheer polish, it probably would have been OK to use three. However, this is a very pretty shade, and would also look good over a black or dark polish as well for a shimmery top coat.

Ulta - Un-tile The Morning & Striped Gradient

Happy Tuesday!
I have been taking some random Monday's off of work this December to finish up my Christmas shopping and basically just because I hate Monday's lol, so today is the first day of my 4 day work week.

Ulta Un-tile The Morning was in my un-tried pile and thought it was about time to start going through it. I will show you some pictures of this polish on it's own at the end of the post, but for now, I wanted to try this striping gradient design with some of my teal colors.





Polishes Used:
-OPI- Nail Envy
-Ulta - Un-tile The Morning
-Kiss - Soft Blue
-Finger Paints - Hue Gotta Be Kidding
-OTD

I tried this nail art technique on my "Fall Flair" mani as an accent nail but wanted to try it all over. I really like it, however, next time I may use more dramatic colors, these are all very similar.  Have you tried this technique before? It's so easy because there is no right or wrong with it!

Here is Un-tile The Morning by itself. It is a nice color however, I needed to use 3 coats for this coverage and I normally like polish that is a little more opaque.

Sation - Pyramid Princess

On Monday, I picked up a couple polishes from my local Marshalls. They finally had Station polishes at my store and I was excited because I hadn't tried any yet, so I picked up Pyramid Princess.

And here it is!





Polishes Used:
-OPI - Nail Envy
-Ulta - High Roller
-Sation - Pyramid Princess
-Gelous
-OTD

Pyramid Princess is an amazing glitter bomb containing silver, gold/yellow, black, blue and pink glitters. I loved the awesome glitter-ness of this polish and the pops of color really add the extra kick. I am wearing it over High Roller, but I almost didn't need to. 

Isn't this color gorgeous?! Do you own any Sation polishes? What is your favorite?

Ulta - Broken and Blue

Hello Lovelies!

Today I am showing you one of my un-trieds, Ulta Broken and Blue.This is a really pretty shade and I am slightly disappointed that I haven't used this before today.





Polishes Used:
-OPI - Nail Envy
-Sinful Colors - Slate
-Ulta - Broken and Blue
-Gelous
-OTD

This polish is jam packed full of glitters. I put slate on under this polish but didn't need to. The glitter itself was completely opaque in 2 coats. This is a perfect polish for the holidays; it is dark, but shimmery and glittery as well. Just a very lovely simple polish that everyone should have :)

Do you own this shade or any other glitters from Ulta? Which is your favorite?
