Wanderlustlacquer's Sea Breeze

 Hey Lovelies! For today's look I applied one coat of Sinful Colors Why Not. Once that was dry I added 3 coats of Wanderlustlacquer's Sea Breeze. This polish is a jelly base with a tiny bit of a blue pigment and packed with silver and blue glitter. 




I was having a really hard time getting an even amount of glitter over all of my nails. As you can see my middle finger wanted to hog all the glitter! I hope all my mama's out there had a wonderful Mother's Day yesterday! I know I did even though I had a sick little girl to take care of .

China Glaze Pool Party + Stamping

Hey Lovelies! Let me start off with saying I'm so sorry there is so much glare on these nails! It was crazy sunny today and a horrible day to take pictures. As soon as the sun went down I went to take some new pictures and boom I had 2 chips. So with that being said I'm sorry. For today's look I started out with 3 coats of China Glaze's Pool Party from the Poolside Collection and 2 coats of Sinful Colors Black On Black on my ring finger. Once that was dry I went in with Black On Black and stamped Shany plate SH211. 




I am loving how 80's this mani looks! I hope you all have a wonderful Wednesday!

Born Pretty Store: Super Matte Change Surface Glossy Oil Nail Polish Review

Hey lovelies! For today's post I wanted to share with you an awesome new polish that I received from Born pretty store. Item ID:3590  is a great polish that will take your super glossy finish nail polish and turn it into a stunning matte finish. The first few times I tried this polish out I got super frustrated because I was experiencing such horrible shrinkage. After several failed attempts it finally dawned on me that maybe I needed to wait until my nails were COMPLETELY DRY. Sure enough I applied 2 coats of OPI's DS Extravagance, waited until they where completely dry and then applied 1 coat of  Item ID:3590 and HOLY COW BATMAN IT WORKED!!! I am really impressed with how fast this matte polish drys and I loved watching it turn from a glossy look to a matte look right before my eyes! 


How freaking gorgeous is this color in a matte finish?!?!?! 


Not only does the Born pretty store sell matte nail polish, they also sell nail art supplies, cell phone cases, makeup, hair supplies and so much more! They also ship worldwide and it's free shipping!! If your interested in grabbing a few of these beauties for yourself swing on over to the Born pretty store and don't forget to use the coupon code JFL91 to get 10% off your entire order!!

Forever21 Love & Beauty's Black/Red/Multi Nail Polish

Hey Lovelies! For today's look I went with another beautiful chunky glitter polish from Forever21's Love & Beauty line. since this polish has a sheer black base I decided to first apply 1 coat of Sinful Colors Black On Black as my base so the glitter would really stand out. Once my base color was dry I went in with Love & Beauty's Black/Red/Multi polish and applied 1 coat over my base. For a super glossy look I applied my top coat which really made the glitter shin!



I'm a sucker for a dark polish jam packed with multi glitter! What about you guys?
