Essie Smooth Sailing+ Nailventurous Nail Lacquers Blue Fix+You Mix News

Happy Saturday!

It's pretty rare that I ever post an Essie. I think I only own 3. haha Essie is just usually a little boring for me. But this color, Smooth Sailing is an exception! I love the shade of periwinkle and the flecks of shimmer.

I have been loving all of the reverse glitter gradients that have been posted lately...so we gave that a try with Nailventurous Nail Lacquers Blue Fix. I love this glitter! It's a super fine bright blue with a greenish holo effect.

Also, did you know Amy (of Nailventurous Nail Lacquers) is opening up an Etsy shop soon? Definitely keep an eye out for that so you don't miss out on her fabulous creations!

Here's a pic with flash to show the holo. Pretty...

Also, if you didn't already know, my husband and I's site You Mix Cosmetics has been updated with color shifting glitter, silver holo square glitter, and TONS more glitters. Our black and white bar glitters have already sold out, but don't worry, we are getting more!

Black White 10 Day Challenge Day 1: Black on White

Hi!

Today marks the first time I have done a blogging challenge! Even though it's only 10 days and they are spread out 3 days apart, I hope I can stay committed! :) I was invited to join this challenge by one of my first blogger friends, the lovely Dolores from Colorful Bottles Blog.

So the first day is black on white. I chose Orly Au Champagne as the base. This polish has such a unique finish. I definitely prefer this finish to a creme for white. Then I topped it off with LA Girl Glitter Addict in Uninhibited. Such a simple combo, but I LOVE the effect! Looks like cookies 'n cream right?
