Hey everyone, school starts for me on the 8th. I'm taking some really difficult courses and I might not be posting as frequently. I'm talking maybe a post a week. Thanks to everyone who reads my blog! =]

Fairytale Summer Updated
Hey everyone, I was talking about the bubbling of Fairytale Summer and how I might layer it, and I did. I used a cheap dollar store polish (it says light changing polish, but it does not change colors) and immediately, the bubbles disappeared. *poof* I'm loving this layered look! =]

My Own Franken: Fairytale Summer
Hey everyone! Today I'm showing you my own franken, which I named Fairytale Summer, named after SUMMER 09! =] It was truly an amazing summer.
Anyways, since I didn't feel like using the base coat anymore, I dumped it all into a bottle and added different colors to create Fairytale Summer. However, there was bubbling ten minutes after I took the pictures and I might layer it with another polish.
Fairytale Summer was streaky and thick, resulting in 4 thick layers, but I love the end result. It's a very very light pink with a faint shimmer. It just looks so clean and fresh and it's really different than all of my other polishes.

Bubbling Issue Solved!
Hey everyone, today I finally figured out what was causing the bubbling in my manicures. It was the base coat I was using! I was using Nicole by OPI Base Coat. The only way to not get bubbles is to apply a ultra sheer layer and that is something I don't have the patience to do, soooo, does anyone have any base coats they would recommend?

Wet n Wild Minis
Hey everyone! This morning, I was in a pink/red mood, but couldn't decide between the two:
I decided to go with the red, because it's just ah-mazing! It applies really smoothly and only needs one coat!

My Sister's Manicure: OPI Blushingham Palace
Hey everyone, here is OPI Blushingham Palace on my sister's nails. It's a close color to my favorite pink hue. This was two coats...I think. (This was a few weeks ago, just found it today!)

Limited Too Nail Polish
Hey everyone! Today I have a funky manicure I did using some really old Limited Too nail polish. Then, I kinda went crazy with the acrylic paint and painted on designs on all of the nails. XD Tada...

Claire's: Periwinkle
Hey everyone! At the mall during CTY, I bought three nail polishes, two from Claire's and one from Sephora. =] This is one I bought from Claire's called Periwinkle. To tell you the truth, I thought it was going to be a obvious duochrome, except it's actually a blue-ish purple base with tons of sparkle. The sparkles are duochrome, turning blue to purple. I had to use four coats, but I really like this color!

My Manicure!
Hey everyone! Well, at CTY, we went to the mall, and guess what, I got a manicure there! I wasn't especially happy with the service, but I liked the finished effect. =] I layered this sparkly light blue over a darker metallic hue. (This is what I mean by a short post. ;] )

Yet Another Craze Break: Yellowstone National Park
Hey everyone, sorry for not posting! I had to unpack and then pack again for my trip to Yellowstone! Busy, busy. whew.
Also, I'm currently debating whether or not to continue this blog. I might put it on temporary break until I have time to continue to post. Thank you all for making my blog experience enjoyable! Or, I might just post pictures and a short description. Regardless, I hope everyone has a good summer!

Wet n Wild Mini
Hey everyone! Today I'm showing you one of my favorite pinks. I got it in a Wet n Wild set that had 10 mini bottles in it. However, they were all unnamed.
This pink is gorgeous and very flattering. In the picture, it looks really bland and boring, but in real life, it's a bright metallic pink. I hate pink, but I actually like this color.

Zoya Chelsea...again, with a twist. =]
Hey everyone, today I'm showing you Zoya Chelsea...again. However, this time, I decided to make it into a funky french.
All of the pictures I've taken of Chelsea don't show it's true color or finish. It looks almost like a jelly in the pictures, but it's actually a very bright red metallic. My dad hates it because he says it's too bold and "reminds him of blood." XD, however, I like it a ton, and that's why I'm wearing it again. =]
