*Guest Nails*


Morning! You are probably wondering who's nails these are...these are my baby sister's! Well, she is 16 but she is the youngest of my siblings so I will always see her like that. :P

Also in other news, as of writing this post I am ONE follower away from 500! Woo hoo! Thanks for being so awesome! I am gathering a few things for a giveaway but I can't promise it will be huge like last time. Sometimes simple is good. :)

On to the mani! My talented hubby did her nails one night and I liked them so much and I thought you lovelies would too!

Polishes used:
LA Girl Iron Red, LA Girl Glitter Addict in Uninhibited, and Icing Blackout

Plates Used:
Born Pretty M59 and M71



It's no secret by now I am a sucker for anything girly so I am in love! What about you?

Hard Candy Breakup

Hi everyone! I am finally getting around to posting today... I was with my BFF since first grade today. I never get to see her anymore :(. She took some family photos for us and I am so excited to see how they turn out! We also bonded over our mutual love for cosmetics. <3

So today I am showing you Hard Candy Breakup. Besides their matte topcoat, this is my first time using Hard Candy polish. This is a glitter topcoat and it's super pretty! I haven't come across anything like this before, but I think the China Glaze 2011 re-release of Snow Globe is slightly similar. 

All the Hard Candy colors come with cute rings that match the shade. 




Rather than doing a full mani, I wanted to show what this glitter looks like over different colors. Although, I am wondering if that was pointless because I am not sure how available this shade is anymore.

Regardless- here is the first batch I tried Breakup over. L-R China Glaze 3-D Fantasy, Color Club Pucci-licoius, Wet N Wild Creme Black, and Color Club Get Your Lem-On.



And with Breakup on top:


And since I love glitter with a matte topcoat I slapped some on before taking this off. I used Hard Candy Matte-ly in Love.


And the second set: L-R Sinful Colors Snow Me White, Nopi My Lifesaver, Dr.'s Remedy Bold Baby Blue, Color Club Yum Gum.


With Breakup...LOVE these combos minus the blue...I don't think this looks that great with shimmer.


And again matte- I am so loving the white with matte glitter!


You can find Hard Candy at Walmart for $4. Also be sure to like their Facebook page because they do have the occasional giveaway! So which combo do you ladies like best?

*Hard Candy was sent to me for review in exchange for my honest opinions.
