Quickie post here!
I think this week is not gonna be as busy as the past and coming ones, so I'll take the chance and jump on "Purples Week"!
Sounds fun right? Hopefully I'll make it for the week '^-^

I Fail - Day 9

3

2 weeks into the semester and school is already kicking my butt :c

I've been ridiculously busy, running around campus, trying to sign up for classes, adjusting my schedule, so by the one I get home I am K.O'd.

I definitely don't want to drop this, so I'll pick the "90 days" back up, but I know I won't be able to post every single day, is that cheating?

I'll try to build up a schedule for the blog so it's not all random and with my Mondays being free (yay!) I should have more time to organize everything :)

Now, I do bring a peace offering: pics of my current manicure! I gave water marbling (sp?) another go and I am still not convinced. It's so much hassle and product and time for a look that I'm not so keen on... But I do believe this has been the most successful try, yet!

Easter NOTW - Day 2/90

0

Hey, guys!

I don't have the best pictures for this, but I might edit this entry tomorrow if I remember to take pictures in day light.

Lately I've been really into nail polish. My collection went from 20-25 polishes to maybe 60 in the last couple of months. I know for a lot of people that's nothing but to me it was really fast and I'm still eyeing so many nail polishes, it's crazy. 

The last thing I've been really into is matte nail polish, and I just got OPI's Matte Nail Envy that I'm using as a top coat, the only matte "clear" polish I've been able to find around here.





I hope this pictures aren't that bad :(
The other hand is actually different, I used an iridescent glitter polish on the accent nail, but pictures aren't picking it up very well in artificial light. Again, I'll try to post pictures of it tomorrow.

EDIT: Pictures in day light; not the sunniest day, though. And as I'm typing this I noticed my left thumb chipped :( Damn mattes and they're sucky adhesion... 



Onto the products!

Essie First Base as base coat.
Essie Haute as Hello
Etienne Maximum Long polish in 715 - Bijoux Strass
Sally Hansen Nail Art Pen in Gold
OPI Matte Nail Envy Nail Strengthener as top coat. 
OPI RapiDry Top Coat for the accent nails.

And that's it! Remember to check out the rest of the blogs doing the challenge:


Hope you enjoyed! :3

NOTW :)

I'm sorry I haven't posted in a while, but this two last weeks have been crazy!
I have more swatches coming up, I'm just waiting for a sunny day to take pictures of the jars :)
And I did my nails last night, using clear polish, Patriot (BFTE) and Paris (BFTE). Next time I paint my nails with a pigment, I'll post step-by-step pictures.
Here are the pics!
