Red Nails? Wine not?

**press sample ** 
Y'all Red-Y For ....  Friday??
I'm not!!!!  It's been my vacation week and honestly, for the first time in forever, I do not want to get to Friday!  Don't judge me!!! I know I'm not thinking about the long week you've been having, I'm thinking about how much longer I wish THIS particular week was. 
So I figured .... Red Nails??? Wine Not!!! 
Being that I have this perfect summer red shade that can take me into fall and accented with Fresh Prince-ss

 
To think this is where it started.

China Glaze Rebel Fall 2016 Collection

** press sample ** 

ahhh the sweet sound of the 90's!!!!! finally something that's right up my alley.  I am completely out of tune with "today's" jams and tv shows and the keep-up-with-the-times.  This is for us, the true 90's babies and the loving era. 

"Inspired by the 1990s but with a modern twist, the feminine pinks and pearls paired with deep purples, blues and grays capture the spirit of the decade that brought us grunge, baby doll dresses paired with Doc Martens, Kate Moss, and the “Fresh Prince of Bel-Air”. China Glaze puts a unique twist on the trend by utilizing some of the newest finishes in nail polish including a gorgeous matte satin in Combat Blue-ts (my personal fave) and slight color transitioning pearlescent in the aptly named Pearl Jammin’."

and one by one... this is the story all about how..... 

this pink creme got twisted upside down.  Her name is Fresh Prince-ss

Pearl Jammin' a blue opalescent.  Seen here in 3 coats for full coverage but top any dark color with it for fresh princess hue.

 

Dope Taupe - a creme nude for a neutral touch.

Y'all Red-y For  this red with shimmery tones.  The perfect summer red to take you into the trek of Autumn. 

And it even stamps well.... (seen with Fresh Prince-ss)
Jagged Little Teal:  I got to be honest, I don't get the 90's reference on this one but totally get the teal hue! 

Purple Fiction  is a staple Autumn color

When in "those days" with the change of season, get this baby to Combat Blue-TS and rock on with this matte cobalt blue. 

Heroine Chic it's a nice shimmery gray with relish/purple hues shimmer

Another princess worthy shade: Don't Mesh With Me.
a gorgeous lavender shimmer seen here with and without undies for that perfect mani that can turn any day outfit into a night bling.

Teen Spirit is the shade of my next S-Club 7 concert.
(do they even play anymore?)

     
Hey ya!!! don't miss out on this Blue-ya.  Not a fan of blue? this will turn you! 
 
Holo At Ya Girl! is the glitter topper perfect for any of the shades of the collection.  Seen here with Purple Fiction and Pearl Jammin'

The collection can be found at BeautyPlusSalon.com and selected shades at Ulta and Sally Beauty.

Lite Brites Gradient Mani

This is a super fun summer combination.
Eager to add brightness and spark to the weekend? Consider these three colors from China Glaze latest Lite Brites Collection 
Not only the colors but the names of the shades scream summer!!! and here they are:
I'll Pink to That Lime After Lime None of Your Risky Business
Like any fun summer night, things don't always end up the way they start.. so here's a before and after :)

Where it started

Where it ended

Simple gradient and super fun to make!  I'd Pink and drink to That ^_^ 

Say CHEERS! to the holidays with China Glaze

** press sample **  I hope everyone had a magnificent thanksgiving.  With December upon us and the season for even more giving.  China Glaze brings us their end-of-year-with-a-bang Cheers! Holiday 2015 collection made up of the usual holiday tints, glitter and shimmer.   "Ring in the new year with 12 new colours including awesomely named shades like Ugly Sweater  Party, Better Not Pout, Peppermint to Be and Son of a Nutcracker. " Raise a glass, do your nails and have a merry holiday season. I couldn't decide where to start so I uploaded these pretties at random and here's what randomizer picked for you.
First up is Coal Hands, Warm Heart:  is a black jelly filled with multi-color hex glitters
 
Brand Sparking New Year:  yet another jolly jelly in purple base with mixed glitters.
 
Ugly Sweater Party : Pink jelly with glitters, hold it in your treasure drawer and wear it again in the spring.  It suits cold weather and nice weather as well.
 
I Soiree I Didn't Do It : Christmas tree green glitter.  Add a third coat and watch it bling and shine outdoors. 
 
Wine Down For That:  Need I describe?? I'm down for wine and for this red red wine, vampy shade with a coat  of Bring on the Bubbly (right) and just bring the wine, because the party is on! 
 
Mix and Mingle:  Holiday party purple crelly companion. 
 
Peppermint to Be : Season perfect and not your typical Christmas red with a beautiful shimmer.

Don't Get Elfed Up : You can't elf this beauty up, grab your bubbly drink and let the micro glitter shimmer.
  
Son of a Nutcracker : My favorite name and shade.  It's a bright pink with redish hue.   Sure to spike up your "regular" holiday shades and spike up your eggnog while at it. ;) 
 
and lastly, Better Not Pout with a coat of Break the Ice.  Hot pink with a metallic finish and odd-sized glitter over a clear base.  Perfect pair? I'd say so.
 
Now go on and pair your manicures with these beauties.  Stay tuned as they will of course, be featured further with nail art.
All shades available now. and be sure to check out ChinaGlaze's site and social media platforms

Camp China Glaze: The Great Outdoors

**press samples**

It's so easy to get caught up in our daily routines losing sight of what matters the most - Life itself! 

We learned to glorify the word "busy" and has become a norm.  We're never really busy for what we think we like to do.  If you're reading this, you are probably making use of your free time! you ROCK!  grab a friend, DO NOT call him/her to try to find a mutually convenient date and time, GRAB him/her.  If you don't the answer will be "yea, let's get together, I'll let you know when I'm available".

If I'm wrong, God bless you.  If you make that outing happen, make it as simple as possible, as in a walk in the park, a hike nearby.  Enjoy the great outdoors.  

I LOOOVEEE hiking! I wish I would be hiking right now, but I'm needy so I need a buddy and all my friends are always "too busy" ha! you see!? 

Luckily, China Glaze found a way to make it easy for us to enjoy the great outdoors and the things we like to do, you know, like painting our nails ^_^ (insert excited emoji here) 

The Great Outdoors collection encompasses vast tones and textures of the wilderness.  Nature-inspired shades inspire you to ground yourself, even if for a moment, and appreciate the treasures of the great outdoors that shimmer, sparkle and wow!  and here they are:

All the names are sure to nail a good adventure.
 Now take a closer individual look at the development of our evening after a nice hike: (hypothetically) S’More Fun: (Adventurous lemon lime crème) Picture this citrusy fun shade while holding a nice golden brown glass of something nice. (scotch? yes please!) My Lodge or Yours?: (Natural mauve crème) Pick wisely... ...Or... Take a Hike: (Rich mossy green crème) ...because I will be... Sleeping Under the Stars: (Dark blue with stardust shimmer) the shimmery stardust is a sparkly dream    If you're lucky, you'll get ... Free Bear Hugs: (Deep black red crème) However, this shade stained me so this is one bear I do not want to hug without a strong base coat. I rather .... (Check Out the Silver Fox): Metallic gunmetal gray or what ....Wood You Wanna?: (Rich brown burgundy metallic) do... Gone Glamping: (Gold to green duo chrome) It's definitely a mix of the new and the old! the duo chrome and sheer-ness of this shade will have endless possibilities, my favorite!!  layer it, over or under or wear it alone.   Pondering: (Deep amethyst duo chrome) ....my nails look exactly like the bottle, however, this natural wonder is something the camera lense could not capture. ...to...Change Your Altitude: (Pebble greige crème) This swatch displays some of my findings along the trail with traces of Cabin Fever, a Pink to copper dup chrome  as well as ... Let’s Dew It: Multi dimensional blue gray glitter       Here's some #campChinaGlaze inspired outdoors mani!  what's better than hiking? seeing bear cubs play ^_^ in a camo outfit so I wont be detected. (like that will ever happen)
