A Nail Fail: Sephora by OPI

Hey guys!

Nothing To Disclose

Today's post is a big fat nail polish fail. I was going to do a nude and purple glitter gradient and pulled out my Sephora By OPI Thyme For A Mani and well.... it did not go well.

Since I am going through my untrieds, I hadn't used this polish before. Imagine my surprise when this was the result! I used the same base coat that I always do and applied one coat of TFAM. Uhmm.. what is happening here?

I tried a second coat and it did the same thing! I have never had a polish do this, unless it was a crackle and this most certainly is not a crackle, lol. I had to laugh because it was such an epic fail!!

What was your biggest nail fail?

Pink Wednesday: Pixi Coral Cabana and SOPI It Looks Like Rain, Dear!

Hey guys! I'm really glad that day is over. Inventory was yesterday at my job and now all the re-counts and on hand adjustments were made today and tomorrow.... I'm exhausted! Definitely looking forward to Friday!

Pixi Polish is available at Target and I was lucky enough to pick this beauty up on clearance and with a super awesome coupon, so I think it was about $2 after all was said and done :-)

Coral Cabana is a lovely coral creme! It's bright, almost neon, but not quite. I used 3 thin coats. 

With flash:

I sponged Sephora by OPI It Looks Like Rain, Dear on the tops of my nails. I love love love the gold and coral combination! 

I got several compliments on this look... a lady at Bath and Body Works went on and on about it. We discovered that we are both nail nerds, lol. She was very excited when I knew the name of her polish, haha!

Pink Wednesday: Sinful Dream On: A Layering Smorgasbord!

Hey guys!

So this is post has lots of pictures in it! I was experimenting with layering and just kept adding layers, lol.

First off, 2 coats of Sinful Dream On... and who knew this was a matte?? I had no idea. Magenta matte polish!Call me dumb, but I didn't realize most/all neons are mattes!

Then one coat of Pure Ice Oh Baby! 

Then, a layer of Sephora by OPI Electric Blue Blasted. 

THEN one final layer of Essence Color and Go Space Queen. 

I didn't have a plan for this when I started (as you can probably tell, lol) but I was experimenting with the colors and textures. It's not my favorite thing but I don't totally hate it :-) I will say that it looked better in person. The neon just doesn't look great on camera :-/

What do you think?

Talk to you soon!
