O.P.I Mariah Carey Liquid Sand




Today I have a swatch from the Mariah Carey collection from O.P.I.

Stay the Night

O.P.I describes Stay the Night as a matte back with red glints.
I really loved this color. I was surprised that you could still see the red glitters after 
it turned matte. 


I used 3 coats. 
It did take longer to dry than other polish but you don't use a top coat.

What do you think about this collection? Have you tired any of the Mariah Carey collection?

This was the last nail polish set that I bought in December. I'm trying to go tell August with out buying any nail polish. The only thing that I can buy is nail strengthener. If I do go that long, my husband promised that he would buy me 2 pairs of Steve Madden sandals.

My First swap!

I'm so excited to show you all what I got from my first swap!!
The lovely Priscila from priohmy send me all this!

The first polish that I tried out is Ana Hickmann in the color Techno.
It's a purple shade with really tiny shimmer.
Here is a picture of the bottle showing the shimmer it has.
Very pretty color!

 I stamped with Bundle Monster BM-205

I really like this color. I can't wait to try the rest!

Julie G polish Bikini

Today I have for you Julie G polish. She is a you tube beauty guru and now she has her own nail polish line

The first color I am going to show you is Bikini.
It is a bright pink color. It really isn't this neon/bright in person. I couldn't capture the color (sorry). I really liked this color. It is very girly. I used 2 coats and the formula was good. I didn't have any problems with it. For 3.99 a bottle is pretty good.

After it was dried, I decided to add another color from her line on to my tips.
Metallic Heels! I love this! It reminds me of Sephora by OPI Only Gold For Me. Instead of having the chunky gold glitter, Metallic Heels has small gold glitter. 
 Again I'm very sorry for the bad pics. It was getting late and had to put my kids to sleep.


 I promise it looks a lot better in person.

Mojito Madness

Good morning.
I hope every one had a wonderful weekend.
Today I have for you Mojito Madness from essie. It's from the summer 2012 collection.
Essie describes Mojito Madness as, "a fun-loving lime green."
I personally don't see lime green. It's hard to describe the color. But it's a fun summer color.


With 2 coats it was very opaque (no top coat). I didn't have any problem with the formula. I love essie formula. Never have a problem with it.
Mojito madness is a cream finish.


I decided to add some glitter to my Mani. 

I used Jordana Gemstones and Copper Blaze.

What do you think of Mojito madness? How would you describe the color?

May Julep Box and Swatch

This is Kylie from my May Julep box. Julep describes Kylie as a sultry, violet magnetic polish.
Kylie is like a grape juice color.
When using the magnet it well create darker designs consisting of stripes.

You can kind of see the darker stripes on the pictures.

I really liked this color. It's very pretty with or without the magnet effect.

Did you receive Kylie for your Julep Maven box? What did you think of it?
