Back after a LOOOONG hiatus!

Whew!  How have you all been?? Sorry there hasn't been anything new for so long. I've been moving and had a bit of an accident with the pinky finger of my swatching hand. 

I decided to take a break from blogging for awhile and do other things. Unfortunately, during that time I managed to badly injure my pinky nail to the point that the entire nail just fell off. It hurt and looks terrible. I can't even include it in pictures at the moment. :( Maybe someday I can but that'll be a long way off. 

I'm kind of just getting my feet wet for now so today I just have a simple nail gradient I did. I used China Glaze What A Pansy and Essie First Timer for my colors. Just something basic to get back in the game with! 

I'm sorry for how wonky my nails are. I made the mistake of getting acrylics a few months back and they're still recovering. 

I'll be back with more soon! Thanks for reading and have a good day!

Zoya Neely

Hello again! As my second installment from Zoya's Lovely collection, I have the green polish called Neely. The formula on this gave me some issues; I found it to be a bit watery. Other than that, I really like this polish. I'm a sucker for greens, and this is no exception. Unlike Julie, in my last post, this has no shimmer and is a straight creme polish.

I love it! All pictures are at 3 coats.

China Glaze: Tart-y for the Party

Hello all!! Today I have the third polish from China Glaze's Avant Garden collection. I really hate the name of this one. Haha I think of Real Housewives of I forget where -- Miami maybe? -- and there was a song done by one of them with the same name. Hated the name then too. Haha So, now that you know I watch Real Housewives, lets get to the polish: Tart-y for the Party.

This polish is a classic lilac purple. It's a creme polish and while my photos all have topcoat, it's super shiny without it too! This was most a one coater but the swatches are two.
