Happy Valentines Day!

  Happy Valentines Day everyone! I did this heart look using Essie Leading Lady and Essie Beyond Cozy.  I started with two coats of Leading Lady and then I used a detail brush to add a cute silver heart with Beyond Cozy.

  I love these colors a lot and I really was just looking for an excuse to use them again, but Leading Lady is so freaking hard to photograph. This second picture shows the color better, but you have to see this color in real life to see just how beautiful is really is.

Baker Street and Beyond Cozy

 
   Hey guys! I hope everyone had an awesome weekend and had a great holiday, if you celebrated. If anyone went Black Friday shopping, I hope you scored some good deals.

  Here are a couple of new nail colors that I got that I thought would look really awesome together.

 The blue is Baker Street from Nails Inc. I have been lusting after this color for a while now and I finally got it with my Sephora 20% off VIB. It's a royal blue that is dark and bright at the same time, if that makes sense. The formula on this is smooth and it glides on amazingly.

The silver is Essie Beyond Cozy from the 2012 holiday collection. It's an antique silver micro glitter, so this silver has an almost gold tinge to it. This one is a winner, It also had great and easy application and this is only two coats of it! When I saw it in the bottle, I thought I would for sure need 3 coats, nope.

Silver Leaf

     
      A leaf gradient! I haven't done one of these in a while! This time I used the silver leaf that I have instead of the normal gold that I use. I just used the imitation silver leaf foil that I got from dollarnailart.com. They call it "Foil Nugget Silver" But it's really just faux thin foil leaf. I'm pretty sure you could find it at any craft store. The blue that I used for this is Essence Colour & Go Walk On Air.

Metallics

    
       Metallic colors are a huge trend for 2012. Lots of nail polish companies have come out with metallic collections for this year. Personally, I'm not really into metallic nail polish colors that much, but I thought I'd try some out anyway.

What I used

• Sinful Colors Casablanca
• Sinful Colors Leap Frog

     
     Casablanca is a silver metallic. The formula is really nice and smooth. I'm actually really surprised that I like this color. I started out thinking that this was going to be a dud. It's not, and it's really beautiful. 

     Leap Frog is what I would call a dark green gray color. The formula of this one is awesome and this color is really opaque in two coats. It looks slightly more green in real life. 

   

    
   These color actually look really beautiful together, and I'll admit that I love this metallic silver.
