31 Day Challenge Day 13, Animal Print Nails

Hey!
Welcome to Animal Print day! I think it will be fun.
I decided to go a different route today. I once saw a picture of a fish called a Parrot Fish and it was rainbow colored! This is my version of it:

1 coat OPI Nail Envy
2 coats OPI Ink
2 coats Hits Moonbow
stamped with Revlon Metallic and Mash-39
1 coat SV

Here is the little guy who inspired me



Here is a look at Moonbow on its own. Prepare for lots of pictures!






The multi chrome on this is amazing! I see green, blue, purple, pink, yellow and a little bit of orange! This polish is so distracting! I wore this for three days. That is a long time for me.
What do you think?

Check out what the other ladies did today:

31 Day Challenge Day 5: Blue Nails

Hello Girlies!
So I know I am a day late on my challenge post but I have a good reason.
I have been battling a cold for the last couple days and yesterday it somehow turned into a major toothache.
 The toothache got so bad that I ended up going to the ER. After 5 hours there we finally left and made it home around 1 am. They gave me 3 different medications and one is a pain killer so I have been a bit loopy all day :-)
I slept in a little today while my lovely husband kept an eye on the little one so I could recover a bit. 
When I woke up I did a quick mani snapped some pictures then he drove me to work, since I am on pain meds and I didn't want to crash the car! My boss is out of town so I had to go in today to take care of everything she usually does since I am second in command.
So I just got home from work and am typing this up right away, and that is why it is late.
Onto the blue nails!
I decided to pull out one of my untried polishes China Glaze Bermuda Breakaway.
I am so sad that I have not used this before it is such a beautiful navy blue. It is so strange it is a navy but it is a bright navy... figure that one out.

1 coat OPI Nail Envy
2 coats CG Bermuda Breakaway
taped off 1 coat Revlon Metallic
taped off 1 coat Zoya Carly
1 coat Seche Vite

 I also decided it needed a little more pizazz, so I added some Zoya Carly to the very tips of my nails... I like it!

Not too bad for someone hyped up on pain medication.

NYX Ink Heart

So, when I used this polish last week I said it made me want to do a glitter sandwich and I couldn't help myself, I had to do it!
This jelly polish is just so pretty that I had to pick an equally beautiful glitter to match it.
I chose OPI's Servin' Up Sparkle.
 This is one coat of Ink Heart, one coat Servin, another Ink Heart, the stamp and a coat of SV 


I stamped on it with one of the new Bundle Monster plates BM-305 and Revlon Metallic 
I love that silver glitter polish for stamping it is my go-to silver!



A close up shot with flash. I know that this washes out my already pale skin but it gives you guys a good look at that glitter!


Coming soon... I finally found the package I've been waiting for at my door...
OPI Black Spotted!!!

Movin' Out

Hey guys! Today I have a polish that is so hard to photograph!
It is OPI Movin' Out. I have it here over Sinful's Black on Black.
This polish is a beautiful multichrome and I have not done it justice here,
It shifts from purple to pink to gold to green.
You need three hands to photograph this polish!
I think I am going to get the hubby to help me take a better pic of this :-)







Then I added a stamp with one of Bundle Monster's new plates BM-314 and Revlon Metallic

Meg Stamped

So my sister and I went to Ulta the other day. It was tons of fun and nice to have some girly time and pick out some new polishes. We noticed that a lot of brands were buy 2 get 1 free, including Zoya! Plus I remembered that I had a coupon for 15% off of the entire purchase in my car. So each polish was about $4.55, what a deal!

I noticed that there was one lonely bottle on a restocking cart from the Zoya Surf collection so I snatched it! There was no other bottle from the Surf or Beach collection in the entire store, Believe me I looked! This bottle was meant for me. 

This is Zoya Meg. She is beautiful. 
Since I am also currently obsessed with the new Bundle Monster plates they were used too.
What is better than one new image? Two new images!
Sometimes less is more, but not this time. I was unhappy with my first stamp so I added another.


I first stamped with the new "water marble" image, then when that was not exciting enough I added the butterfly image.


I liked how the stamp was semi-matte, so I left it like that :)

Polishes
Zoya-Meg
Revlon- Metallic
Konad- Black Pearl

Tools
BM-320
BM-307


What do you think of Meg?

On a side note while I was in Ulta I noticed a display with "Ulta Exclusive" OPIs, this would have been really cool but it seemed like every color had been taken out of previous collections and renamed... I know OPI has a habit of this but these were pretty recent and well known collections. I didn't buy any of these but there were dupes from a lot of the Pirates of the Caribean collection and a dupe for "Last Friday Night" and "Not Like the Movies" from Katy Perry. I wasn't sure if I should be annoyed because OPI was trying to pull a fast one on us or snatching up some colors from collections that I may have missed out on? What do you think? Annoying or second chance?

Metallic, Cheeky Mermaid Tears

Hey guys! Sorry for my little absence :( 
I have had a lot going on work-wise and home-wise.
Plus I have been feeling a little uninspired, but that has not stopped me from painting my nails!
I got some new polishes and some new stamping plates!
SO EXCITING!
I just bought 3 of the Cheeky Jumbo Plates off of Amazon.
These plates are huge! There are at least 48 images on each plate.
This is made with plate C
These stamp so well it is ridiculous, look at that detail!


Polishes
OPI: Mermaid Tears
OPI: Crown Me Already
Revlon: Metallic (stamping)

Tools
