Manicure Monday: Pink & Gold, Stripes & Glitter

Just a quick post today, to show you my nails for the weekend.

I saw a few neon pink and gold glitter manis around Vday, so I decided to do my own take on it.

I found a trio of Color Zone neon polishes at Ross, this is the pink one. It dries to a semi matte finish, which looks really cool, but I had to put top coat on to even out the finish. The gold is a Kiss nail art polish.

On the accent nail, my base is OPI Simply Smashing (yes, again) and a Milani nail art polish. The pinks are slightly different, but I still think it looks cool.

I love the look of pink and gold together! I think next time I’ll try the pink matte and layer some chunky gold glitter over Simply Smashing.

Hope you had a great weekend, Beauties! And Happy President’s Day to those in the US :)

Flakies & Leopard & Hearts & Glitter: 2 Vday Nail Looks

Happy Valentine’s Day/Forever Alone Day Beauties!
I love hearts. And I love pink. So Valentine’s day is probably one of my favourite holidays!

For the first mani, I did 3 coats of an unnamed Color Club pink polish, 3 coats of OPI Simply Smashing on ring finger. Then 2 coats of Nubar 2010 over the Color Club polish and used the same pink for the ‘leopard’ and heart design on the ring finger. I outlined using Wet n Wild Ebony Hates Chris.

This is my first time trying to do leopard print, so it wasn’t great… but it looks pretty enough from a distance. I like how the gold and pink flashes from the flakies complements the gold and pink accent nail.

Maybelline Baby Lips: Cherry Me, Pink Punch & Peach Kiss


Beauties. I am soooo in love with these lip balms.


BabyLips



I adore sheer, juicy looking colour on lips, especially for spring/summer. It definitely seems to be the trend right now, like the Revlon Lip Butters I previously reviewed.

From the Maybelline website:
• Visibly renewed lips and 8-hr hydration
• The secret: Exclusive lip renew formula with SPF 20
• Protects and moisturizes lips for a full 8 hours
• After 4 weeks, lips are visibly renewed and  reborn
• 6 varieties
These, unlike the lip butters, are definitely a coloured balm. They have the texture of a balm and hydrate and smooth lips beautifully. I had dry, chapped lips, but after using Baby Lips all the flakes were gone and my lips felt soft and smooth.

There are 6 different shades and I picked up 3;

L-R: Cherry Me, Pink Punch and Peach Kiss.

Revlon Colorburst Lip Butter: Peach Parfait & Strawberry Shortcake.

Hey Beauties :)

There's been ALL this hype about the Revlon Colorburst Lip Butters, so I had to pick up a couple. I got Peach Parfait and Strawberry Shortcake, because I'm predictable and love peach and pink.
I got both from Target for $6.98.


L: Peach Parfait     R: Strawberry Shortcake
