I Need More Time on My Hands

I'm sure you guys are wondering where I've been... the answer is temporarily bogged down with a buttload of homework! I'm finishing up my Junior year in High School right now, and I want this year to end with a bang, so I've been MIA for a couple months to focus on my studies.

Never fear, though, I will be posting again soon! I am going to release the recipes of the frankens I wanted to sell a couple months ago on my next blog post. There are a lot of indie polish sellers doing their own thang right now, and I wanted to let everyone have a less expensive (read: free) opportunity to get some unique creations. I'll be posting them soon! Stay tuned, and hopefully I'll be posting more over the summer :) Thanks for sticking around!

Revlon Powder Puff + Lynnderella Snow Angel

Decided to keep it clean and simple today. This was two coats of Revlon Powder Puff topped with one coat of Snow Angel. Clean and pretty!

Revlon Chic

Here's another blue polish to balance out the purple :) This is Revlon Chic, two coats. This is a very... blah polish to me. It's pretty, but would be prettier with some hidden shimmer. It's too plain!

Lots of Revlon posts lately!

Revlon Royal Cloak

I have some purple spam for all you purple lovers out there! I'm actually not a huge fan of this polish to be honest (and by not a huge fan I mean I don't like it at all...). It looks nice in the bottle, but not as nice on the nail. Boo! Even so, Revlon is on FIRE lately with how many great nail polishes they're releasing. Definitely my favorite nail brand right now! I think this was two coats.

What do you think? Like it? Leave it?

Revlon Fashionista

I can't believe it's already 2012. I found these over winter break with my friend, Layla, in Ulta. I saw the Revlon display that has Whimsical in it totally empty, and I had to ask if they had put the polishes out.... they didn't! So I got to go through all the boxes of polish and get first dibs to any colors I wanted. Hooray! One polish I chose was Revlon Fashionista, a beautiful one-coater.

I decided to make it funky for New Year's Eve. I can't file my fingernails into points because they're super short, but I can make them pointy using polish! I used a nude franken for my base color and Revlon Fashionista for the tip color. I think it's super cute!

Know what else is super cute? BABY ALBINO OTTERS!! Am I right??

Revlon Lily with LA Splash Baby Octopus and GITA!

Today I have one of my favorite cremes, Revlon Top Speed Lily. It has an awesome formula and the color is amazing. Try this one out if you can, it's totally worth the $6!

Here it is with LA Splash Baby Octopus. This is a holographic glitter polish with circle and octagon glitter. 

Here it is with my favorite, Lippmann Glitter in the Air!

Thanks for lookin'!

Teal Franken

Today I have a teal franken that I made a while ago. I made this one using NYC Kisses, Wet n Wild Black Creme and an LA Colors Color Craze blue that I had lying around. The sparkles come from NYC Kisses, and I'm in love with them! Everything was under a dollar, too: I bought the LA Colors polish at the dollar store, and bought the NYC polish in a two pack at the dollar store as well. Wet n Wild Wild Shines are already 99 cents to begin with, and Rite Aid had a deal a while ago to get two for 99 cents, so I stocked up! Cheap frankening is my favorite by far.

Here's a bottle shot. You can see the shimmer really well in this one.

Thanks for stopping by!
