Essence Surfer Babe Nail Polish

This is one of a collection of four polishes that came out for the summer of 2010. This is called The World's Coolest.

Now, I would have blogged about this long ago but I didn't know about them. It's an interesting story how I got this one. But first I'll tell you about this polish. First of all, it's made in Luxembourg, which is a little country in Western Europe. A cool little anecdote.

It's a lovely light blue/green cream polish that is similar to Orly's Gumdrop.

I had to use three coats to get it opaque even though it goes on kind of thick. Go figure.

 

 

So I came across this polish at a party...a nail polish exchange party! I have a friend who is also crazy about nail polish, even more than me, and she had this brilliant idea to have this exchange party and this is how it works. Everyone is to bring any and all nail polishes they own that they no longer want, old or new, any colors. Once at the party you dump them in a big basket with everyone else's. If you brought eight polishes, you would then be allowed to pick any eight out of the basket that you liked to take home. So this polish is one I picked from the basket, along with many others that I must blog about soon. But, I warn you, they may be old like this one! Ha ha! Thanks for stopping by and I hope that maybe this nail polish party will be right up your alley and you, too will have a super fun time having one because I sure had a blast being the guest of one! Oh yes, everyone also painted their nails at this party. The icing on the cake you might say! Have an awesome day! Taniya

Rose Among Thorns

Need a bright, fun color for your next vacay? This may be just what the doctor ordered!

China Glaze Rose Among Thorns. Super bright one coat awesomeness!

It even says right on the bottle that it's Neon so you know it will be fabulous on fingers and toes all summer long! Summer's almost here, hurray!

Have a colorful day! Taniya

Island Girl Polish in Royal Hawaiian

Here's the other Island Girl polish I promised! Didn't I tell you it was super duper summery?

 

Royal Hawaiian is a bright, neon pink that took just two coats for opacity.

How great would this be for your toes this summer? Oh my goodness, it's so pretty!

My daughter used it on her nails too but also added some sparkle.

She used this L.A. Colors polish in Sparkling Diamonds.

And this one from the Wet N Wild Fergie Collection in New Years Kiss. So either way you do it, you'll have some bright, colorful nails that are bound to get noticed! Thanks for stopping by! Taniya

Island Girl Hawaii

Big Island Volcano is a bit of a green turquoise that covers nicely in two coats.

Of course I LOVE it! I haven't seen these anywhere in So. Cal. but my wonderful pal-sey picked a couple up for me in Vegas. What a sweetie!

So be on the lookout for my next blog posting of the other color she got. Hint: It's SUPER summery. Hurray!

 

 

Have a colorful day, friends! Taniya

Easter/Spring Nails

If you like your nails to be a simple solid color with no decorations for your springtime gatherings, check out these pretty colors.

Sally Hansen's Lacey Lilac with one of my flowers of the same color. In the sun.

And in the shade.

Sinful Colors in Cinderella.

With this color you have to be patient because it takes three coats to get good coverage.

This is Revlon's Charismatic. Love this one! A one coat genius!

Last but not least, (because I love, love, LOVE this color) my pathetic attempt at making a bunny. This is Gumdrop by Orly. Super pretty bluey-green! Happy Easter!! More Spring colors to come. Taniya

Sally Hansen Lacey Lilac

By now you all know of my love of purple. Well, Lacey Lilac is a lovely shade and great for spring! It's from Sally Hansen's Hard as Nails Xtreme wear line. I didn't have one but my friend had TWO, so she gave me one. Hurray!

This was in the bright sunshine. (It matches my flowers :)

 

And this is in the shade.

Then I added some sparkle. This amazing O.P.I. with rainbow bar glitter has TONS of glitter so one coat is all you need. It's called Save Me.

Hey, the Lacey Lilac would be great for Easter and it's just around the corner! Happy Spring!! Taniya
