New Jesse's Girl Swatches!!!!

So I ran to Rite Aid on my lunch break, and was sooooo excited to see these!! They are just amazing!! Glee appears to be an exact dupe of Zoya Charla and OPI Catch Me In Your Net, and an Essence, that I can't think of the name right now.

This is Glee
Formula is great and this was 2 coats!!




This is Confetti, and this was 3 coats.



If you're looking for the display, here is my crap cell pic. There were plenty others, but I only NEEDED these two!!

Evolution of a Mani.....

I was looking through my stash in search of, god knows what, and saw Ivanka sitting there. I might have only used this once, when I first got it, but realized I needed to use it again. As we all know, it is very hard for me to ever leave a mani alone, the only time I really ever have a plain mani on is if 1 - I'm swatching or 2 - I'm in a hurry.

So I did 2 coats of Ivanka



Then did the houndstooth Konad design, using Sinful's Black on Black




And that couldn't be all, I was bored within minutes, lol, so I decided to do diagonal black tips as well, using Scotch tape, like always, and Sinful's black.

What do you guys think? Did I go to far? lol

Another Patchwork mani.....I can't help it, I just love these

So once again, I did another Patchwork mani. If you're tired of seeing this design, I'm sorry. It's just so easy, and there are sooo many possibilities of colors to do!

Here I used Sinfuls Black on Black, China Glaze Recycle & OPI Catch Me In Your Net

Another Scotch Tape mani!!

This pink, has no name :( I picked it up at my CVS in a set of 4 for only $2.99!!!!! You can't beat that, here is what the set looked like, and later in the week, I will do swatches of them all.


















They say metallic, but the pink finsh reminds me of the glass flecks, similar to Zoya, Charla.

Here is how I placed my tape. Once you paint your base color, and wait for that to dry, you can place your tape on your nail.




















Then, when you get it placed, where you would like, you put the next color on. As soon as you do that, pull the tape off. Only do 1 nail at a time. Otherwise the polish could dry to the tape, and pull up.

Here is my final design



















It's not my best application or straightest lines, I wasn't feeling to well, but I still like it!

Getting a little crazy with my girl Sally

For some reason I saw these 3 Sally Hansen HD polishes, and decided to layer them all together. Guess what.............I love it!!! You have your blue, pink, purple and turq!!! What more could you want!

Here are the 3
L-R
Spectrum, Laser & Byte


















I started off with 2 coats of Laser.
It showed more purple IRL, but my camera refuses to work with that color some days!



Then I added 1 coat of Byte
Ooohhhh Aahhhhh. look at the colors!

















Then 1 coat of Spectrum....and Ta Da!!!!
