China Glaze Neon Gradient

Happy Friday everybody! Oh... wait... it's only Wednesday... but since it's the last day this week I'll spend at work, it feels like Friday! The only thing left in order to have a perfect weekend is for the weather to clear up and the sun to come out. In order to at least have some sunshine on my nails, I decided to try my hand at a neon gradient. I'm not know for...

Zoya Roxy

Every now and again you see a swatch of an older polish and you know in your heart you HAVE to have it! This happened to me a long long time ago with the next polish. I saw it, fell in love and realized Zoya isn't sold here. Luckily, I knew of a couple of sites that did stock this gorgeous brand, but of course they didn't have this particular polish. I searched and searched,...

China Glaze Wait n' Sea

Another Monday, another weekend over. We had some glorious weather this weekend, the temperatures rose to a very nice 23 degrees and I enjoyed every bit of it!

For the main color of my mani, I choose the gorgeous China...

OPI My boyfriend scales walls

Every nail polish lover would agree with me that every stash needs the basics: a good black polish and a good white polish. These colors can be used as a base for a glitter, in nail art or to make a sheer or hard to deal with polish pop on your nails. I've tried a lot of different black and white polishes, but I always go back to the same two. I already showed my favorite black,...

Zoya Stevie

I think it's save to say that the Zoya Pixie Dusts are my favorite textured polishes. I love them so much because the texture is so fine, no big chunks and my hair doesn't get stuck on my nails if I run my fingers through it. This particular Pixie Dust has been standing in my stash for a while, not unloved mind you, but I just felt it was more appropriate for Spring and some nice...

After all the bright, light and fun polishes, I felt it was time for just a bit of DarknTwisty on my nails. I'm so happy the weather is changing and the sun is coming out, but even in mid Summer, I crave a dark nail every now and then. This polish is perfect, as it is a little dark and dreary, but with a perfect glitter surprise. Dollish Polish Cold winds are rising...

piCture pOlish Chillax (with a cherry on top!)

Yesterday, I was having the same dilemma lot's of polish hoarders like me face several times a week: what will I paint on my nails today? I stared at my stash for a while, pulled out several polishes and put them back again. I wanted them all on my nails and none of them at the same time. I know, I have issues... So I did what anybody would do, I asked a friend of mine who is...
