Manicure Monday: Spring Pastels

Monday greetings lovely Spring flowers. I hope you all had a terrific weekend, enough terrificness to carry over to combat this Monday blue. Those four days after the weekend is always the hardest to get through, but I'm sure we can make it. Right guys? Right!
For those who aren't already aware, Spring officially begun on March 20th, a mere three days ago. When Spring is mentioned, pastels automatically jump into mind. For me at least. :) Although I don't necessarily follow the "only wear dark shades" during the Fall/Winter, I still do look forward to Spring/Summer to finally rightfully sport pastels and bright neons. And that is just what I did this week. I've been sporting dark colors way too often lately so it is definitely time.
SPRING IS HERE, SO LET'S BRING ON THE PASTELS!

Manicure Monday: Sapphire Siren

Monday greetings you lovely people! :) I hope you all had a terrific weekend. Oh glorious weekend came and left like a whirlwind, and here we are back at Monday once again. But fret not, we are only four days away from the next weekend. LOL.
When Monday rolls around, basically the only reason that makes Monday manageable is that I get to switch up my manicure for the week. Yay for keeping it consistent!
Winter is nearing the end and this week's dark color is a farewell gesture. Technically Spring will not start until the 21st of March, but considering how next week is St. Patrick's Day, my nails will have something to do with that. After that, bring in the pretty pastels and lively vibrants because Spring will be in full Spring. Who is excited??

Manicure Monday: Harem by Illamasqua

Hello, hello my Monday blue jays. :P How are you all fending off this Monday? Two words for me, Manicure Monday.
Yep, it is that time of week again when I say "screw everything" and just dedicate a bit of time to do my nails. Because even if it is just for a brief moment, I am able to do something I thoroughly enjoy and just forget about everything else. It has been one heck of a week and a very eventful weekend. Life as I know it will dramatically change and I'll say it right now, it will be very stressful. Buuut, let's keep being optimistic and keep those negative feels far from the blog. :)
I finally got around to this Illamasqua Nail Varnish I picked up months ago. I was originally gonna wait until Spring, but what the heck, it is technically Spring/Summer here in the AZ already. And since last week, I had bright, semi-complex nails, I just wanted to go for nice, clean cut, basic nails.
Manicure Monday: Harem by Illamasqua
 
If y'all can't tell, I trimmed my nails short again. I've been preferring this over long nails, or even medium length at that. It's just so low maintenance, I love it!

Manicure Monday: Haze of Love

Monday greetings my loves! I hope you all had a great weekend. I had a very productive, yet awesome weekend so I can't complain really. :P
Who watched the Superbowl yesterday?? Maaaaan, wasn't that halftime show just freaken AMAZING?! Katy Perry was just perfect... Her makeup, her outfits, those shoes,  her stages, those backup dancer sharks. Hahaha, everything was awesome! Oh, and also good game too.
Back to business, today is Monday, also known as the day I switch up my nails. Welcome to another Manicure Monday post!! :D This week, I had a veeeeeeeery special someone help me pick out the shade. Said person picked "maroon" and maroon it shall be. Now, I am bad with colors but does maroon and the current color of the year, marsala kinda looks the same? Kinda? Maybe...?
Manicure Monday: Haze of Love
 You be the judge. I'd say this is close enough and could be passed as being the color of the year manicure. LOL.

Manicure Monday: A Heart of "Jazzy Jade"

Hello, hello to you all. How are y'all doing on this Monday? Sooo yeah, y'all keep warm and be safe in this bipolar weather alright? Besides the blizzard in the northeast, AZ is actually experiencing a gloomy day ourselves, nothing too extreme but nonetheless something different.
So it is Monday, regulars would know what Monday means on my blog. LOL. Another week, another manicure. Last week, I sported blue nails, link is provided if you haven't already seen it; this week, this pretty jade color caught my eyes as I was going through my nail colors.
Manicure Monday: A Heart of "Jazzy Jade"
Isn't it just the most gorgeous shade of jade??? But of course, a simple white heart to contrast. :D

Manicure Monday: "Into the Blue" With You

I am definitely feeling the Monday blues today... Into the Blue that is, which are on my nails! :P No seriously though, anyone feeling blue? Because cheer up y'all, Mondays aren't the most favorite days of the week but it's just a day and we're already over it. So over it. :)
Manicure this week is blue because I had just received this gorgeous Nail Lacquer by Probelle in my January iPsy bag. Since I have no planned manicure for this week, this nail color came jussssssst in time.
This is by no mean a review... yet. I do hope that this manicure will last me until next, next week so I can give y'all a one week update. We shall see how well this nail color will fare on its own for a whole week. Testing out nail colors and trying out new brands is definitely a favorite past time of mine.
So let's see what we have here...

Manicure Monday: Many Shades of Purple

Hello all and Monday greetings! I was gonna wish you a happy Monday but I highly doubt that was true. Haha. I mean, I can't complain about my Monday but I'd much rather it be the weekend still. Just a heads up, I probably won't go anywhere this week because I have to babysit my baby cousin all of this week. I am great with children, but it's one thing to care for them at home then taking them out. This little one is two months shy of being 2 years old so she is one heck of a hand full.
She took a reeeeeeeally long nap earlier so I was able to do my nails real quick. I was so tempted to just do a simple, classic manicure but what the hey... Let's just risk her getting up. :P But don't get me wrong, I didn't do anything extravagant either, just kinda added a bit pizzazz from the norm manicures.
Okay, here we go before she wakes up and cries for her parents. LOL.

Manicure Monday: "Mr. Right Now" is "A True Romantic" detailed

Hello everyone and I wish you all a great Tuesday. Hope that all is going well for you all as well. Only the best wishes for my readers.
So yesterday I finally uploaded the post that I was asked to do a month ago. I am behind on a lot of materials, and I know excuses aren't going to make any difference but I promise you, once this dark time is over, I will be back with 200% effort and 300% dedication.
If any of you somehow missed it, I did a guide on how to Winterize your nails yesterday. My 6 step guide on how to keep our nails clean and healthy over the long, dreary Winter months.
Today, however, I will go into details about this week's manicure using Sephora by OPI and Julep Nail Colors.

How To Winterize Your Nails - Julep Exclusive Guide

Hello Monday my pretty blog explorers! Hope the beginning of the week is treating you well. For a few, this is actually the first day back from a very long break, I can only imagine how long and tedious this day is. But fret not! Now that we are home, it's time to pamper ourselves with a nice calming manicure. Does that calm you or is it just me?
So a while back, I teased an exclusive tutorial from Julep but I never actually got around to it until today. I actually attempted the guide twice but I was not completely satisfied with the results so I ended up scrapping it. Since today is the first manicure related post of 2015, I figured it should be a great idea to finally get to it.
So to brief y'all what this is about, I was contacted by a rep of Julep about a month ago; I am amongst the few beauty bloggers chosen for this special project. For the record, this is NOT a sponsored post. I will indeed inform y'all if I ever do a sponsored post, I would not lie about that. This is just a campaign Julep has going on, on how to maintain our nails during the Winter time. I was sent this tutorial guide and was asked to create my own guide, with my own products using the tutorial. With that said, everything mentioned in this post are all bought by my own money and was NOT sent anything. This is also not a review post so I will not be talking about anything except for the steps.

Hello alllllll!! I bring y'all another combined haul today because it's seriously been too long. LOL. All were freshly purchased earlier today because after days of endless, crazy Christmas shopping, I should reward myself with a few ish of my own. :D Some were needs and the rest are wants... Haha.
Despite the bipolar rain and breezy weather, I made way to several stores. Everything shown here are either from Bath & Body Works, Target, Ulta and Walmart. It is a combination of eyes, lips, nails and some skincare products.

Manicure Monday: Pink Popsicle

Hello pretties, all my pretties, you pretties. Hahaha. I am in such a great mood today and I am not sure why! And I frankly don't need to know why!! :D
Switched up my nails today to a pretty pink. Pink is my happy color. I either wear it because I am in a great mood or I wear it to put me in a great mood. Today's choice of pink is called Pink Popsicle and it's from Pop Beauty. This is the first time I am using this ever since ordering it from Hautelook a while ago. I actually did a post about it, click here if you're interested.
I also used a glitter top coat from Sephora by OPI that I also ordered from Hautelook. You can also check that out above! :)
Manicure Monday: Pink Popsicle
Pop Beauty Nail Glam Nail Polish in Pink PopsicleSephora By OPI Nail Color in It's Bouquet With Me
Sally Hansen Diamond Strength Diamond Shine Base & Top Coat
Pink Popsicle is a pretty pale pink shade. It is not too pale that it is almost white, but not too pink that it is bubble pink. Which is great because I own nothing like this shade. It is truly very beautiful.
The formula is very creamy and more on the runny side. Ya know how some nail colors can be a bit too thick and makes the application so much harder? Well this applies like a dream. Two thin coats and it is good to go. The shin is amazing as well; what you see in the pics above are its own shine, no top coat necessary. Dry time takes about 15 minutes for the first coat, and about half an hour for the second coat.
I am not really liking the glitter formula from Sephora by OPI, it is too watery for my liking. Unlike nail colors, I prefer my glitters to be more thick. This is not by any means a bad glitter; I can definitely use it for other things.

Manicure Monday: "Keep Me On My Mistletoes" "Mr. Right Now"

Hello Monday everyone!! How was your first Monday back to work after a looooooong, food-filled weekend? Haha. :P On the bright side, we are now in December, the last month of 2014 already. 20 days until it is officially Winter and 24 days away from Christmas. It's all happening so fast it feels so surreal.
I've said it before and I'll say it again, it was one heck of a weekend for me. Shopping, dinners, gatherings, everything threw my sleeping cycle out of whack and I could not sleep for the life of me last night. I literally laid there wide eyed, staring at my ceiling then as I drift to sleep, I somehow jerk up and cannot fall asleep again. That, mixed with tossing and turn and the lack of getting comfortable. I probably slept no more than two hours combined so needless to say, I am running on no sleep and zero patience. Imma further tire myself out by killing myself working out. Hopefully that's enough to make me just pass out tonight.
Anyways, it's Monday so y'all already know what day it is!! Yep, time to switch them manicures up! It was one heck of a task to accomplished, I've realized if you are as dead tired as I was. Since it is December, I felt festive and wanted red talons. I ordered a bunch of Sephora by OPI nail colors from Hautelook on several occasions and I have yet to even use all of the shades. Amongst the shades was a deep, cool-tone red called Mr. Right Now which caught my eyes when I was going through the nail colors. And that is what I used today. :)
Manicure Monday: "Keep Me On My Mistletoes" "Mr. Right Now"
Sephora by OPI Nail Color in Keep Me On My Mistletoes & Mr. Right Now
Sally Hansen Diamond Strength Diamond Shine Base & Top Coat
In person, the shade is a cool-tone red shade but from these pictures, they appear to be a warm red. Either way, the shade is super gorgeous, wouldn't you say so? I figured having red on all ten fingers might be too boring so I used a gold for my accent fingers.
Both shades required two coats to appear even and streak free. As always, I did two thin coats, allowing each coat to fully dry before applying another, which did not take long at all, maybe 10 minutes tops.
After my nails were all beautifully applied, it still looked kinda plain so I dipped a toothpick into Keep Me On My Mistletoes and created a free-hand bow on my thumb. I should have stopped there but I went a step further and created several red bows on my gold accent nail.
I did not apply any top coat to these nail colors. The shine you see is all Sephora by OPI nail color's shine.

Manicure Monday: Zoya

Monday greetings my pretties. I hope y'all are having a lovely Monday because it is one fine, new day and I am grateful to be healthy and alive. Thanksgiving will be 10 days away, don't just wait until then to be grateful and give thanks. It should be done year round, all the time, for the big, small and not so little things. Around this time, every year for the last 3 or 4 years, I would donate food, canned goods and/or clothing and would make time to volunteer. I know it's not much, but it makes me feel warm and fuzzy inside. The Holiday Season is to spread warm love and joyous cheers, and I try to do exactly that.

Any who, today's post was originally supposed to be a tutorial on How To Winterize Your Nails but something came up midday and I was unable to finish it so as a back up, today's post is of my manicure for this week. I doubt that the tutorial will be able to go up next week as well because I will be doing special Thanksgiving manicure. I'm guessing that the tutorial will go up in about two weeks. I apologize to those who were looking forward to it. 

Zoya in Julie & Neve

Zoya Professional Lacquer in Julie & Neve

Sally Hansen Diamond Strength Diamond Shine Base & Top Coat

Julie is the lavender shade and Neve being the deep, dark blue. Both shades took two thick coat to come out evenly and streakless. The waiting time to dry is approx. 20 minutes, but even so, do be care not to touch it or it might dent or be messed up. 

I did use a base coat to protect my nails but I did not use a top coat. I hardly ever do wear a top coat, not unless I know that I need my manicure protected until the end of the week or else I just allow the nail color to fend on its own.

Again, I'd like to apologize for the confusion and delay. But please try to understand that in life, unexpected things occur that I cannot control. I'd like to thank you for your understanding. Like I said, the tutorial will go up in about two weeks. I want to do it to the best of my ability and not just BS it, because you guys deserve the best.

Although here are the steps I have created earlier. I am not 100% satisfied with the way it came out so I will redo them but just so you can get the gist of it.


Y'all enjoy the rest of your night now. Thank you for visiting and thanks for reading, Please come back soon. :)

Manicure Monday: "On A Trip"... To The Galaxy!!

Monday greetings dearest...est! :P Hope y'all had a wonderful weekend. I sure as heck did, still trying to recuperate as of now and I spent all day yesterday pampering myself. LOL. 

Now that we are officially in November, let's declare it Holiday Season already. Well, technically it started on the 31st of October, but shush shush. Thanksgiving is only weeks away, followed by Black Friday. Oh man, Black Friday, it is SO on! Ever since November started, I guess Arizona felt left behind or something, but the temperature dramatically dropped. We are now in the mid-70s to high-60s and lemme tell ya, it is CHILLY!! Light sweaters must come out to play now. Ahhhh, super excited to be switching gear to Fall/Winter fashions. I mean, short gal here loves my shorts, but jeans and sweaters, well... Haha.

Annnnywho, after my extravagant manicure last week, I decided to tone things down a bit this week. I trimmed my nails short to grow it out again. I dunno about y'all, but after having my nails long for too long, I not only get bored with the length, but my nails become weaker. So maybe once every two or so month, I trim them short to start the process all over again. I think it's fun to experiment with all sort of nail length.

Manicure Monday: "On A Trip"... To The Galaxy

Wet N Wild Mega Last Salon Nail Color in On A Trip
Wet N Wild Color Icon Toppings Collection in Icing Backup

Sally Hansen Diamond Strength Diamond Shine Base & Top Coat

For this week, I decided to go with purple, a more vibrant shade of purple because I didn't feel too dark. LOL. I then topped it off with a glitter topper and accidentally created a galaxy-esque look. I like it a whole lot.

For On A Trip, I did two thin coats; allowing both coat to completely dry before applying anything else. It took no more than 5 minutes, but I waited 10 just to be sure, since I had time today.

After the second coat of On A Trip is completely dried, I applied a generous coat of Icing Backup to each nail. Only one coat was necessary. Now, this took slightly longer to completely dry, and even after it dried, the feeling of tackiness will linger for a good 'nother hour or so. 

Again, I did not apply a top coat this time either. I didn't think it is necessary. But feel free to apply a top coat if you find it necessary.

I hope y'all enjoyed this post and like the manicure for this week. Oh! Before I forget, Icing Backup was part of a limited edition collection called Toppings that came out, I believe Spring of 2013. I'm not sure if it is still available anywhere. But in case someone who does own this, top it off a blue or purple and it's incredibly beautiful.

Manicure Monday: My "Golden Goddess" Just "Leaf Him At The Altar"

Monday greetings to you all! Hope y'all had an pleasurable weekend and received much relaxation. We all need that in our lives. Haha.

After yesterday's Honey-Almond Moisturizing Mask, my skin felt completely rejuvenated! Love that mask so much! If you haven't already checked out my DIY Sunday Mask recipe from yesterday, please do go check it out. Just a few simple, natural ingredients, takes up no more than 10 minutes to prepare but it will live your skin so lively it's not even funny.

Last week, I had on a plain gray nail color so it is to no surprise I was craving for something shimmery this week. I went through the bunch of nail colors I recently ordered off of Hautelook and this gorgeous green caught my eyes! I looked at the name and it gave me a chuckle, "Leaf Him At The Altar", they do come up with the darnest names. Haha.

After applying the green, I wasn't completely satisfied... like something is missing. And I was right! Not enough sparkle, sparkle!! I went through my glitter polishes and Golden Goddess was the answer. What a relief that the two complement each other well or I would have to redo the manicure. LOL.

Manicure Monday: "Golden Goddess" Just "Leaf Him At The Altar"

Sephora by OPI Nail Color in Leaf Him At The Altar
ELF Essential Glitter Nail Polish in Golden Goddess

Sally Hansen Diamond Strength Diamond Shine Base & Top Coat

I absolutely love this particular shade because the formula is just amazing! It glided on like butter evenly without the streaking. The drying time was well under 3 minutes for a even, thin coat. If I had done a better job, I could have left it with one thin coat, but there were certain areas not covered so I went in with another thin coat. The second coat took a tad longer to dry but it was well under 5 minutes still. 

After Leaf Him At The Altar was completely dried, I went ahead and applied a coat of Golden Goddess to each and every nail. I kinda had to scrape the speck of glitter from the bottle and strategically place it on the nail. Basically you get what you pay for; for $2, I really cannot complain too much. It is a fine glitter polish that can last for up to a week even without a top coat. The only issues I have with it is that the formula is too thick, thus needing more effort to apply and the drying time takes forever and a day. 

And that's about wraps up this post. Hope y'all enjoyed this week's manicure. Next week will be a Halloween inspired manicure. :P I gotta get to brainstorming.

Thank you for visiting and thanks for reading. Please do come back soon! :)

Manicure Monday: Metro Chic

Happy Monday all! Hope you're all faring well on this Monday. I somehow feel like this will be one long, strenuous week; mostly because my week started off kinda bleh if y'all know what I'm talking about. Just woke up not feeling like it's a good day at all. 

Maybe that was why I wasn't in the mood to jazz up my manicure in this week. I felt like I wanted something simple. Just simple. No glitter, no sparkles, no nothing of the sort. 

Gray is amongst the Fall nail trends and I snatched this Nail Color from a recent Hautelook order that I will do a post on soon.

Manicure Monday: Metro Chic

Sephora by OPI Nail Color in Metro Chic

Sally Hansen Diamond Strength Diamond Shine Base & Top Coat

I was able to get even, full coverage with two thin coats of Metro Chic. The drying time is amazingly quick. I also did not apply a top coat either.  I find that Sephora by OPI's formulas are made to be lasted for at least a week. I have worn other shades without top coats and they lasted me for a week.

So yeah, just a simple beautiful shade on the nails this week. Nothing special. Still hope y'all enjoyed it though.

Manicure Monday: Pink For The Cure #Pinktober


Hello Monday all! Hope y'all had a great weekend. One day down, four more to go until the weekend again. Haha. :P

As y'all may know, October is the National Breast Cancer Awareness Month, we also call it Pinktober because pink is widely used and symbolizes breast cancer.


All of October, whenever I wear makeup, I would incorporate something pink in honor of Pinktober. By far, I was able to keep my words on that. Since today is Monday and I usually switch up my manicure today, I thought I would do 'em pink for the cause.

As women, I urge you guys to go get yourself checked, whether self exam at home or go get a mammogram done. Be aware of what could happen guys. Because...


Self exam yourself will only take a few minutes, but it could save your life.


Moving along, today's manicure is all about pinks, accent with a pink ribbon.

Pink Poppys is the slightly darker pink on my thumb while Forever Pink is the lighter of the pinks on the other three fingers. Each shade took one thick coat to get that result, including White On.

I used a medium sized dotting tool, dipped it in Forever Pink to create the pink ribbon. 

Thank you for visiting and thanks for reading all. Enjoy the rest of your night. Please come back soon! :)

And always remember guys...

Manicure Monday: "What A Broad" Of A "Bridesmaid"

Happy Monday all! Hope you all had a great Monday and in turn have a fantastic week.

It's Monday so y'all already know what this is about. Crippled or not, must get the beauty on. Haha. Not really, my aunt offered to do my nails yesterday since my right arm is basically useless right now. Keeping it Fall themed  again; love sporting the dark shades. I also needed some bedazzle in my life. It's fun to look at from time to time so I added glitter chunks as accents.

Both What A Broad and Bridesmaid took me one thick coat each to achieve this flawlessness. I applied two coats of Twinkle Toes-ty on top of Bridesmaid to give my accent nails more bling.

I applied the top coat to each and every nail to protect the color from fading and chipping. And that is it.

Thank you for visiting and thanks for reading guys. Please come back soon. :)

Manicure Monday: Prime Purple

Happy Monday everyone! Ugh, I know, I know.. It's Monday, I shouldn't be this enthusiastic about Monday. But you know what day it is today! Manicure Monday!!! :D

I'm feeling the Monday's purple today y'all. Not blue, but purple. In fact, Prime Purple to be exact. This is one of the new SILK formula from Sinful Colors. It basically is a matte finish is what SILK is.

Manicure Monday: Prime Purple

Sinful Colors Professional Nail Color in Prime Purple
Seche Vite Dry Fast Top Coat
Sally Hansen Diamond Strength Diamond Shine Base & Top Coat

It was such a pain to remove the previous color. I redid my nails a couple of days ago for the funeral, so it still had somewhat of that staying power of newly applied polish. The fact that it was nearly black didn't help either.

Little Black Dress

I had to scrub my nails real good to get rid of all the products left behind. It somewhat stained my nails already, even though it was barely applied days ago.

Any who, I applied a base coat afterward to protect my nails from this week's manicure. Still using the Sally Hansen Diamond Shine.

I applied two thin coats of Prime Purple to my nails. If I would have done the first coat thicker, I think I could have left it at that. My nails were fully covered evenly. It took no more than 3 minutes to completely dry to the matte finish. This formula seems to be a tad thicker than their original. It's a little frustrating to work with, maybe it's just me this time. I'll give it another try before I completely judge it. 

Too jazz it up a little, I took my Seche Vite and applied it to the matte finish at random, like a horizontal, vertical and diagonal strike to have some contrast of shine and matte, It doesn't show up well with this shade. Maybe on a darker shade it will.

But yeah, that's it for this week's manicure. I'm really loving this purple. It makes me cheery looking at it. What do you guys think?

Thank you for visiting and thanks for reading. Please come back soon! :)

Mini-Haul: K-Mart & Target

Hi all. How are you guys doing? Short week this week, don't blink because it'll be Friday again if you do. Or do blink. Lol.

We continue with another beauty post, yet another mini-haul of items I bought last week. Majority of everything was bought at K-Mart with the exception of two nail polish that was bought at Target.

Alright, let's go!

Here in Arizona, Wet N Wild are sold relatively everywhere, however, not all the stores displays the latest products or limited edition items. I can always count on seeing new displays at Walgreens, CVS and K-Mart. I was able to pick up these new limited edition trios at K-Mart, I believe these six are the complete collection. 

I honestly have more than enough shadows to last me two lifetimes but I cant. Stop. Buying. More. It is rather an ill obsession. Thank goodness these trios were cheap.

Out of the six trios, my favorites would have to be Something To Rave About, No Scalpers Allowed and Lost My Wristband. The shadows seem to coordinate with each other well. As for my least favorite, I'd choose Who's Carpooling? because the shadows seem to contrast each other too much. I went ahead and picked it up anyways because I thought the shadows were beautiful and I could use it for other things.

So Sinful Colors came out with a new SILK polish. From the display, it just seems like they're matte polishes. Imma have to give them a go and I'll get back to y'all on that. I picked up three from the collection.

As for the other shades, I thought they were gorgeous and couldn't refuse them. Wet Cement will be perfect for Fall as Peach Babe and Kelp Yourself will be gorgeous for Spring.

Thank you for the continuous kind words and thoughts. I appreciate everything, thank you so, so, very much! <3

Thank you for dropping by and thanks a bunches for reading. Come back soon. :)
