Halloween Mani!

This is my NOTD for halloween. I can't believe I am actually getting a NOTD up. Lol It's very simple and kind of blah but I have tried my hand at nail art before and we just don't mix. But anywho Pictures!

This is one coat of Julep Natasha as my base. It is almost a one coat orange. It's kind of awesome. You can still see nail line but it's one of those that is never really opaque. Over that I put a coat of China Glaze Dreamsicle. Its Holographic glitter in an orange jelly base. On the ring finger I used a coat of China Glaze Fairy Dust. I am just going to assume everyone knows what Fairy Dust is :) I then used Sinful Colors Secret Admirer for the tips and the decals are from Kiss. I went hog wild on these and bought like 15 packs. Lol Love them.
Until Next Time

LA Girl Punk

Today I have LA Girl Punk for it. It is an amazing blue I am going to say glassfleck with a purple flash. It was a pleasant surprise when I got it on the nail. I almost didn't buy it but I am glad I did. :) The application was nice went on smoothly and it covered well. I think my pictures might be three coats for maximum color I could of gotten away with two though.

Until Next Time,

Orly Charged Up and OPI Funky Dunky

Today I have the comparison that I said I would put up a while back ago. I am sorry it took me so long to get it up.

Pinky and middle finger Funky Dunky Ring and Index Charged Up

I stated in my post that they are dupes but as you can see they are not. Orly is a few shades darker than the OPI but the formula on the Orly is no bueno. I used three coats of the Orly and if you look closely you can see some bald spots. Funky Dunky is a dustier purple and a little lighter. It was two effortless coats though. Funky Dunky is my first OPI and I love it. I think I am going to have to invest in some more. :)

Huge Fail turned into Meh

I wore this a long time ago. This is Grey's Anatomy by Wet & Wild and Oxidized Aqua Crackle Glaze by China Glaze. Grey's Anatomy was a long time lemming of mine. I had seen it all over and I knew I had to have it. It looked like such an amazing polish but when I got it home and used it I was MAJORLY disappointed. I couldn't get it to look anything like what I had seen. I used two coats and still had VNL it was just bad. So when all else fails and when a polish fails this bad it's time for Crackle. I put China Glaze Oxidized Aqua over and had something I could work with. So enough rambling.

 As you can see in the above two pictures the craptastic polish I got. You can really see it in the second one.

  Here it is with the crackle over it. The look is subtle but I like it. I will most likely use Grey's Anatomy as a base for sponging and other nail art stuff but NEVER alone. Please don't take me wrong I love Wet and Wild but this is just a fail.

Blah Flipping Blah!!!

I started writing a post explaining why I have been gone for so long and went to write up a post about polish to almost get it done and lo and behold I realize I have already done a post for that color. UG! I guess I am going to spend today sorting out my pictures so that doesn't happen again. I will do an actual post later tonight. I promise. I have wore some pretty amazing colors lately that I want to share with all of you.
My deepest Apologies,
JessieMae

Essence @Holographics

Today I have for you one of the Essence @Holographic polishes. This is Gagalectric. Its not a holographic but a duochrome. It has a purple base and it flashes green, purple sometimes blue. I tried to capture everything about the polish but no avail. This is one coat layered over Fingerpaints Amethyst Atelier. Sorry about the shape my cuticles are in. I haven't found an cuticle oil yet. If you have any suggestions please feel free.

Until Next Time,
