My Polish Collection!

I think I have a problem!

I have A LOT of polish and my collection just keeps growing.

This is how I keep it sorted and stored. I am quickly running out of room. Summer organizing project I think!

Ombre Nails

I haven't posted lately because of school, testing, and getting ready for a busy summer of AP English & Psychology homework to get done before school even starts!

I haven't even had time to do much to my nails and that means I am REALLY busy. I finally found some time to get my polish collection in order and try a new nail design.

Here they are, Ombre nails. Just use any three of the same color, from light to dark. Lightest color on the complete nail, then next darkest from on 3/4 of the nail, then the darkest on the tip. Smudge and you are putting on each layer. So easy and I got many compliments on the nails.

Thanks,
xoxo Peyton

Hunger Game nails!

Inspired by my favorite books series, The Hunger Games, I tried a new nail design. Just in time for the premier this weekend!!!

The flames are painted first on thin plastic bags, using any red, orange and yellow that you have on hand. Set aside to dry. Once they are dry, just cut out the flames and they will be the "stickers" you use on your nails.

While the flames are drying, prep and paint your nails with black. Apply the stickers to the nail. Because it is from a thinner plastic storage bag, it sticks to the nail. Flatten out any bubbles (if a bubble just won't go away, stick the bubble with a fine pin and flatten with your finger). Finish it off by topping with at least two coats of a good top coat. It is okay if they aren't perfectly flat. This look should have some roughness for depth and perspective.

Let the games begin!

Bright Spring Floral Nails

This nail art is springy and a little bit 1960's Mod. The flowers kind of look 60's and are so easy to do. I used the following product.

For the base - Essie Oui Madame - This is a great white pearl color.

Flowers - Petals - China Glaze Flip Flop Fantasy - This is a bright pink.

Flowers - Center - Sally Hansen Hard Lemonade - Nice yellow for that little detail.

I used the large dotting tool for the petals, and a size smaller for the center for the larger flowers. For the smaller flowers I used the same smaller one I used on the center for the petals, and a step down for the center.

This is a fun style and can be done in ANY color combination.

Kardashian Nicole OPI Colors

I finally bought three more colors in the Kardashian line by Nicole - OPI. 

I love the multi-color glitter called Rainbow in the S-Kylie. It compliments every color I have!

Blue glitter is Kendall on the Katwalk. Love it by itself or over other colors.

Dark plum purple with a slight metallic sheen is Smile for the Glam-era. It is a great dark color.

Tiffany Blue French manicure

I am really liking the China Glaze Audrey color nail polish. I saw this on Zooey Deschanel's Instagram pictures and just loved it. It is a perfect manicure for the outfit that I picked out for today (picture to follow later)

I used OPI Coney Island Cotton Candy for the base and China Glaze For Audrey for the tips. I love changing up the tips for a "French" manicure, and since it has been warm and sunny and so spring like, I think this is perfect for my mood.

OOTD - A rainy day outfit

Well, the weather took a massive change this week. It was warm and in the 70's for the past week, then this storm comes through California and I had to put all my new outfits on hold and pull out the layered look and boots.

China Glaze Audrey with Cheetah print nails

So, I got a big haul of nail polishes the other day. I couldn't wait to try the China Glaze Audrey polish. It is a Tiffany blue color that I think is so spring. I also tried a cheetah print that I have been practicing everywhere. (school folders, friends binders, even lip balm containers)

Here is the final product.

Warm California Outfit of the Day

Today is a beautiful day in California, so I'm wearing a lightweight peachy/pink silky shirt from Forever 21, Miss Me Jeans, and my Madden Girl sandals. Comfortable and stylish.

On the go makeup , using benefit palette :)

Sally Hansen Salon Effects

I change my nails like I change my socks!

Decided to use one of my stash of Sally Hansen Salon Effects. This one is called "Love Letters" and I got so many comments on it today when I was out shopping.

These are so easy to use, no dry time or smudges. I love that they last for days without looking bad. What I don't like is that they cost as much as a bottle of polish and you only get one application!

I will continue to use these for those times that I need a design that lasts and can be done quickly.

Benefit False Eyelashes - Pin-up

This was my first experience with false eyelashes. I wore them for Winter Ball and I think they really finished the look I was going for. I have real long natural lashes, but I wanted fuller more noticeable lashes for the semi-smokey look I was going for.

I found them easy to apply, glue (must purchase also) is clear and pretty easy to use. Just wish it had come with some sort of stick or applicator, since it is easier to apply and spread with an implement rather than your fingers. 

 I had them fitted when I purchased, so they were cut down to fit my eyelash line. Curled my real lashes before applying and that works well. Then added a bit of mascara to both in order to blend them with my real lashes. Worked Great!

Happy I gave them a try. I am going to get a few of the other styles for other looks I want to do.
