Day 29: Inspired By The Supernatural

 Only one more day left!!! I really thought I would have dropped out of this challenge a llloooonnnggg time ago. I think that having my friend Rachel from Polished Criminails start the challenge made me keep at it. It always helps to have a friend doing something along with you to keep you motivated.

 

So today is supernatural day... I had no clue what to do. I stopped at Sally Beauty on my way home from the dog park today and I was so happy that I did. They had just put out the China Glaze Halloween collection. I ended up getting the 4 piece set and then the other 3 separate polishes to complete the whole set. I really wanted to use a few of them so this is what I came up with....

 

 These are the polishes I used, only 2 of them are from the new Halloween set.

Orly "Au Champagne", "Faint o Heart", Wet N Wild "French White Creme", China Glaze "Rougish Red", "Liquid Leather", "Immortal", and "Ghoulish Glow"

 

 lol Yeah this is my lovely creation lol. I really wanted some evil eyes. So I used "Immortal" as the base on my ring, middle, and thumb nails, and "Faint of Heart" as the base on my other 2 nails.

 

 Doing the best I could I used "Liquid Leather" to make a headstone and my eye shapes.

 

 My thumb is suppose to be a full moon, and the pinkie is suppose to me red eyes looking out from the mist.

 

Hehehe I also used some glow-in-the-dark polish :)

 

Alright, only one day left. Make sure to check back to see it. Thank you all so much for reading. And check out the ladies below!

 

 

An unexpected dupe!!

I recently found another blogger (NailXchange) who had China Glaze "Zombie Zest" and was willing to trade!! I was so excited. I later saw a picture of "Ick-A-Bod-Y" and have since been wanting that one as well. The other day I was at Wal-Mart and decided to take a stroll down the clearance aisle. I'm SO happy that i didn't I found 2 polishes I haven't seen before. They were from last Halloween from Hard Candy. I bought "Mischief" and "Wicked" After looking at "Mischief for a bit I decided to look and see if anyone had done a comparison between "Ick-A-Bod-Y" and "Mischief"... and they did...

I was soooooo excited. Now I don't have to drive myself crazy looking for the China Glaze polish :)

So on to today's mani...

These are the polishes I used for today...

L.A. Colors "Topaz", Sinful Colors "Show Me The Way", China Glaze "Ghoulish Glow, and Hard Candy "Mischief"

I wasn't really sure what I was going to do so I kinda just flew by the seat of my pants lol. I was going to use "Show Me The Way" as the base color, but I realized it was to sheer so I used "Topaz" as underwear. "Topaz" is a very pretty color and sparkly :)

 I used 2 coats of "Topaz" and then topped it with 2 coats of "Show Me The Way"

I wanted to use "Mischief" but I just didn't know what to do with it so I just pick up a paintbrush and this is what I ended up with lol

The stripes aren't perfect, but I'm still pretty new to all of this :) Well that's all for tonight. I hope you like it and please follow me and leave any questions or comments you may have below. As always thanks for reading!

Oh and I almost forgot... Here is a preview for my next post :)

It's Alive!!!

I really wanted to do something with China Glaze "It's Alive" instead of just putting it on plainly lol. I decide to kinda attempt a half and half. Please keep in mind that I'm not a really arty person so I'm doing the best I can lol.

I was going through my polishes the other day and I found a nice light green from the Icing called "Uncommitted" I think this was 3 coats. It has a very lite shimmer to it, but pretty.

For the divide I used my "perfect tips" and tried to put it about half way up each nail, please don't make fun of my loner pinky lol, for some reason it doesn't play well with others :)

I then added a thick coat of "It's Alive" on the upper half of the nail.

I just love this polish, lots of glitter and I love green, the glitter seems to be a mix of both greens and golds of different sizes so it looks like it's shifting colors a litte hence the alive part I guess.

I decided to give the "Goulish Glow" a go too

These pics were before I cleaned up my nails so please excuse the mess. The glow polish did lighten the look of "It's Alive" a little but not too much, not enough to warrent much concern.

 I was able to get some glowing pictures :)

I thinks it's kinda cool that you can tell were the polish colors are different. I was trying to find my blacklight to charge the glow polish, but couldn't find it any where.. sorry :(

I hope you enjoyed. Please leave me any comments you may have. Thanks

Latest haul..

I've been really busy the last few days and haven't been able to do any posts so I plan on making up for it tonight :) I have a few things to show off today. First is my new polishes that I picked up on Friday. I went to Sally Beauty Supply and I was very glad that I did. They had 50% off of their clearance items so I got a couple of China Glaze polishes for just $1.00!!! Great find :) So here I go...

The three China Glaze Polishes I bought:

The colors look much better in person, now I just have to wait until I find a time to use them :)

The other polishes I bought were the China Glaze Haunting Collection. I really wanted "It's Alive" and I figured it was cheaper to buy the set for $12.99 instead of just the one color. I bought this at Sally Beauty as well.

I already have a black crackle, but another bottle never hurts :) And I've been wanting to get a glow-in-the-dark as well so it was worth it. In the above picture you can also see the Sally Girl polish I bought. I love sparkles and glitter and it just caught my eye so for 99 cents I bought it. It didn't have a name on it so I just have a barcode lol.

My next post will have my mani using "It's Alive"  :)
