Sally Hansen Red Zin, Etc Swatches and Review

Good Morning,

It's nothing like wearing a dark red wine color anytime during the year. It's my hubbies favorite that he likes for me to wear.  I got lots of compliments on Sally Hansen Complete Salon Manicure Red Zin. While shopping in Walgreen's a young lady asked me what I was wearing I told her what it was and she picked it up to buy it for herself.  Can you believe I made a sale for Walgreen's. Ha Ha it made me feel good *-*

Red Zin is a gorgeous creme/jelly.  No problems with the application and it took 3 coats to cover well for me.  It's really shiny too.





Sally Hansen Nailgrowth Miracle Serum is a clear gel very light and it moisturizers cuticles nicely.  You can put it on bare nails or over polished nails.  I use it at night before going to bed it keeps my cuticles hydrated.

Dry Chapped Hand Creme it's not thick but just the right consistency. After using my hands don't have that whitish dry look or feel to them. I love it!


You can find these at your local drug stores

Nailart Stamping Plate Storage

Good Morning,

Are your stamping plates growing?  Wondering where to put them all in a neat place?  Well, look what I found at Ross.  A gorgeous oblong style photo album with pretty pink roses on it.  This is so my style I grabbed it because it was the only one left of it's kind.



This album will hold 280 4x6 photos.  I can fit 2 plates in each sleeve so it will hold 560 plates. Now that's alot of plates!


3 sleeves to store the plates in


(Shown are konad plates M85 and Q1 by charming nails) 
I like keeping the plates in there own indivdual envelopes they came in.  This will keep the sharp edges of the plates from cutting through the sleeves.

How do you store your plates?  Now to figure out how to store my XL plates.  Any ideas?!

Lynnderella, Chocolotta Love

Good Morning,

Yesterday I received my package of Lynnderella, Lovely Is As Lovely Does Collection.  I'm so excited to start off with *Chocolotta Love*.  It's packed full of multi-color hexagon and square glitter specks in a sheer chocolate base.  This lovely polish makes me think of MM's chocolate candies.  Crunchy candy on the outside with chocolate on the inside...my mouth is watering while I'm talking about it.  Just bite into some and you'll see what I'm talking about.


This glitter starves for topcoat, 1 coat of Gelous and 1 coat of Seche Vite 


I chose NYC Fifth Avenue (picked it up at Dollar Deal$ in a two pack) to use as a base.  I prefer to use a base so I wouldn't have to layer on so much of the glitter.  Well, I didn't layer on the glitter rather I patted it on easier this way.  


2 coats, I think it looks like a shiny brand new penny








Lynnderella did an awesome job formulating this baby! Don't you agree?

Sinful Colors, Kissy

Good Sunday Morning,

My plan was to put on Cult Nails Toxic Seedweed.  I first wanted to put on a base so I would only have to use one coat of TS.  I choose Sinful Colors Kissy it has the same green blue base as Toxie Seedweed.  It's one of the new polish colors from Sinful Colors. After putting on two coats I fell in love and decided to wear it alone.  Kissy is a close twin to Zoya's Charla and all her other siblings you know the ones I'm talking about.

The formula was excellent.  I had know problems applying it and it covered well with two coats.  Love the shimmer in it.





With Topcoat

If you missed out on Charla and the others I suggest you pick this one up at your local Walgreen's.  You can't beat the price at $1.99.  I was told that Sinful Colors are going on sale, it starts today and ending on 2/18/12 for $.99 so hurry and pick it up!

OPI kicks off New York Fashion Week with Lauren Moffatt

Fashion News Week From OPI
(All images courtesty of OPI)


OPI has kicked off the Fall 2012 shows doing the nails for Lauren Moffatt’s presentation at The Old School (a Catholic school turned events space) this morning! The bright orange hue, A Good Man-darin Is Hard to Find (image attached) was used on models’ nails. Nails were made short and squoval (square and oval ) to give fall looks the right pop of bright color. Orange will continue to be a big color for nails throughout the year!


Orange is one of my favorites to wear in the spring and summer.
