FOTD with Pure Luxe Pigments

Simple FOTD. Use my Pure Luxe pigments in Sunny Side Up, Saffron, Misfit, and Forest. Lips are NCY Lilac Dream. Ignore the shine. This was at the end of a loooonnng hot day and we dont' have AC. Normally I would blot or add a little powder but I was getting ready to wash it off so decided not to bother.

NOTD: Sally Hansen Blue Me Away with China Glaze Atlantis

Pretty simple here. Used 1 coat of Sally Hansen Blue  Me Away and topped with 2 coats of China Glaze Atlantis. Atlantis has a green jelly coat so layering it on top of the the blue gave a cool teal-y color. 

Without flash (truer to real color IMO)

With flash.

NOTD: Pink with Staming

Been playing with my fauxnad plates and decided to do some stamping today. I use a no name/brand pale pink I got as part of a makeup set as a gift for Xmas a few years ago. It's awful and thin, it took 5 coats! But I love the color. I stamped with an old Sally Hansen Chrom polish and my Chinese Konad knockoffs. Then to finish it off I embellish with a little China Glaze Nova. Enjoy :D

NOTD: Sally Hansen Blue Me Away and Pure Ice Cheatin

I cheated again :D Added some Pure Ice on top of my old mani again. 

NOTD: Sally Hansen Blue Me Away

I'm rough on my hands/nails at work so I decided to test out Sally Hansen's Xtreme Wear. It goes on smooth (almost a tad on the gloopy side) and is super opaque. You could almost get away with one coat if you needed to but I opted to do 2 just to smooth out a couple areas. Unfortunately without a top coat it didn't even last 1 shift so it's not THAT Xtreme, but still a great bright blue with easy application.

NOTD: Essie Fiestia with Pure Ice Cheatin'

I love cheating and adding on top of an old mani instead of redoing a new one. I took my mani form the other day and added Pure Ice Cheatin, a purple and blue glitter, lightly on top and tried to gradient it towards the nails. I love the gradient look but haven't master it with polishes yet so I find using glitter is a good way to cheat :D

NOTD: Essie Fiesta

Here's my nails of the day. This is Fiesta by Essie. It's cute bright pink without being neon. Sorry about the sloppy mani and bads pics, I'm still learning.
