Bone Daddy by Crow's Toes

I have a wonderful friend who finds all things cool in the nail polish realm. (She lets me borrow them and then I just have to blog about them so you guys can see too.) This is just one of the cool ones. Doubt me? Well doubt no further because there's a crow on the label!
Yes, I know, super cool. And the polish inside? Even cooler! It's called Bone Daddy by CrowsToes. It has a sheer grey base with white hexagons in three sizes, and white bar glitter in two sizes. Also, there's a blue glittery shimmer when the light hits it. See the blue in my first nail? Check it out.
Worn over O.P.I. in My Pointe Exactly.
Sure, I know most people may not find crows appealing. They may even think they're a bit creepy. But I think they are pretty darn cool! Just like this polish!
Thanks for stopping by and have a colorful day. Taniya P.S. Don't forget to join my blog so you can follow me and you'll get an email anytime I post something new!

China Glaze It's A Trap-Eze

China Glaze has this fun Limited Edition Collection called Cirque Du Soleil World's Away inspired by the movie out December 21st 2012.  The polishes have cool circus inspired names like Def Defying, Bend Over Backward, and Hanging in the Balance. Today I only have one and it seems to be very popular! At least in my area. It's the one called It's A Trap-Eze. A lovely friend of mine picked this up for me after calling three of our supply stores and finding them to be sold out! When she finally found some she bought extra! Am I ever so glad she did because I love this one! Here is two coats.
I love that this color has a milky base. You can get great coverage to wear it alone with just two easy coats!
It's great over other colors as well. One coat over black.
Over this light blue by Pure Ice in Splash. One coat.
Here's a shot of one of the displays.
Six of these shades are considered the "performers" the cremes, the other six the "costumes and props" are the shimmers and glitters. I'm so happy to have It's a Trap-Eze as it was the one I wanted the most. But there's a couple others I'm going to try to get my hands on, (the bright pink called Escaping Reality will be great for summer, and a bright, deep purple called Hanging in the Balance) and when I do I will be sure to let all of you have a look! Thanks for stopping by! Taniya

Super Freak By Icing

This is the color I ended up wearing on New Year's Eve. It has so much amazing confetti glitter, it was the perfect one for the occasion and my mood. Even though I didn't do anything exciting, I just had to have party nails!
This little party in a jar is called Super Freak by Icing. This photo was taken inside.
And this one outside.
It has multi-colored mini bar glitter, mini turquiose polygons, and big fuchsia polygons.
This bottle is so saturated with glitter it was not difficult to get a good amount with just one coat. Yay! See you next time and may your 2013 be amazing!! Taniya

How To Be A Radio Superstar.

You can be a Radio Superstar...on your nails! Yes, and this is a fantastic one for New Years! It's called Radio Superstar by Icing. So you can pick this up at your nearby Icing store for about $4.50. If you don't have one of these stores nearby, you can find them online. But you won't get it in time for New Years. That's no fun.
My sweet 12-year-old son got me this for Christmas because he knows I love the sparkly ones and the colors used here are beautiful!
I put it over a single coat of What Film Noir You In? by Sephora by OPI hoping to showcase the turquoise micro glitter and fuchsia glitter. There are also silver stars in there! This is What Film Noir You In? (A gift from my oldest. She knows my love for purple:) I think it's part of the Tinsel Town Collection.
Two coats. (Lighting really changes the color, doesn't it?)
It has it's own superfine micro shimmer as you may notice above. Here's two coats of Radio Superstar over white.
The only way I could get a star was to have the bottle upside down for awhile. And I only got one! Ha ha ha!
See you next time! Taniya

Fergie's New Years Kiss

Here it is the end of December and you're thinking, "What am I to wear on my nails for New Years?" Well, maybe you're not thinking that but you should be! With all the cool and amazing shades to choose from, believe me, you can find one you'll be crazy over. No Plain Jane nails either. They must be PARTY nails! Maybe even have some confetti on them! Here is one answer to your New Years nail quandary...New Years Kiss from the Fergie Collection by Wet n Wild.
This is just one coat. It's a clear base with two sizes of bar glitter that is iridescent (Fun!) and silver micro glitter.
See those colors? There's your confetti! Here's two coats.
A bit closer.
Now just imagine how great it will look over practically any color! Those will be some great dance-all-night nails! See you next time, Taniya

Snowman Nails!

Just a quick post to show you guys my Christmas Eve nails. Like everyone else during this time of year, I've been busy, busy. But I squeezed in some time first thing this morning to paint these snowman nails I saw on Pinterest.
These are all the polishes I used. The glittery silver by Pure Ice in Beeware, the orange (for his little carrot nose) is Sinful Colors in Clementine, red (for the scarf) is Sinful Colors in Ruby Ruby, and finally Sally Hansen's nail art pen in Black. Of course you can use any old white polish you have on hand for the snow.
It doesn't look like I'm going to have a white Christmas, but here's hoping some of you will be able to build a REAL snowman! I'll just have to be satisfied with the one on my nails. Ha ha ha! May you all have a wonderful Christmas! Taniya

Sinful Colors Under 18

This is Sinful Colors Under 18, an orange-ish red that makes me think of Autumn. It also has a golden micro shimmer. This is just one coat!
Now I put some gold shimmer on the tips for fun. I made two skinny and two a bit wider so you can decide which you like better for your nails! I think I like it with a wider gold tip.
For the gold tip I used Milani in Gold Glitz. I love this glitter because it's very dense and only needs one coat!
One coat each means you'll be done with these nails and out the door in no time! Thanks for stopping by! Taniya
