Peach Crepe Anyone?

Greetings!

I hope you all had a wonderful weekend and didn't miss me too much! :) 

This week I thought I'd add some color to my nails since I've been wearing so many dark colors lately.  I used China Glaze in Vintage Crepe and Sally Hansen Diamond Strength in Peach Pave.  Really simple and feminine, I like the way it turned out.  What do you think?

You can see that my China Glaze bottle is a mini size, I ordered a pack that came with a full collection, what collection, I don't remember but I'm pretty sure it is not limited edition.  If you can find this color you should snatch it up because it is one of those effortless colors that look super pretty on long or short nails.








I love what the Peach Pave does to the color, adds that glamour that we sometimes need during the week!  :)

So tell me, what are on your nails this week?  Tell me in the comments!

Sun Worshiper by China Glaze--One of my Faves for the Summer

Greetings!

This week I decided to up the ante and showcase one of my favorite nail colors that I like to rock during the summer months because it is an eye catcher!  This neon orange/yellow color is borderline glow in the dark at night and eye straining during the day.  This is definitely one of those colors that you can wear while on vacation or on a night out on the town, or whenever if you're like me. :)  Enough of the small talk, let's get to the business.

China Glaze-Sun Worshiper


Cute, right?  Now this is a cream finish and goes on rather opaque when using a white nail polish as a base color.  I used two coats to get my preferred finish and I think it came out great.  I also decided to add some dazzle to my ring finger because I'm extra like that.  LOL  That color is Nicole by OPI, Brilliant Idea, and brilliant it is.  The brush was a dream to work with, not too thin and not too thick.  The brush delivers just the right amount of product in each stroke and I was able to reach full opacity with three coats, not bad considering it dries pretty quick.

What do you think?  Do you have this shade?  Love it or hate it?

Make An Entrance with this!

Greetings!

After that Sally Hansen debacle I had to rush to put on another coat of one of my favorite nail polishes by China Glaze.  Make An Entrance has been a part of my nail color routine for a while now and I wanted to share with you just how pretty this color really is.  This is a very pretty raspberry color that applies smoothly for easy coating.  Typically with all of the China Glaze polishes that I own including Make An Entrance the polish is thin, some may not like this but I don't mind because it gives me more control of how much product I should apply for application.  It does have a cream finish and a quick dry time in my opinion. 

I decided to jazz the color up a notch by adding a top coat of Sally Hansen's Diamond Strength top coat in Diamonds.  This top coat adds a flair of silver grace over the cream raspberry finish that I adore.  I particularly like it because of the effect it has in the daylight, almost like a fairy dust minus the Tinkerbell costume. =)

Here are some pics!


Daylight -- no flash


 Isn't it soooooo pretty? 


So, what's the verdict ladies?  Yay or Nay?
