OPI Funny Bunny...Jelly/Flakie/Matte LOVE!

Hey girlies! Hows it been. I've been mentally stressed out over my distraught nails. I feel so bad for them and they are breaking more and more each day. I'm sure its because of my new work and lack of any protection on them. But they need to air out...and in the process they are getting much worse. So much so that my pizzaz for doing my nails has dwindled. That combined with my repeated catastrophic attempts at water marbling has helped me reach an all-time low. I hope this doesnt last for long because I need to get my spark back. Its not like I'm not buying nail polish, I am almost every day. Its just I havent been doing all the nail art I wish I would with all the new polishes I have. Grrr. Well anyway.

So today I want to show you something I'm IN LOVE WITH!. Like Hello! The base is OPI Funny bunny as you can tell from my post. Then I put some Essie Shine of the Times over it to make it more fun. Then I mattified it and my end result was something I was gawking over for literally hours!

So you know I wish I had a better camera specifically for polishes like these because honestly you in no way can see the depth of this polish simply through these photos. IRL they catch the light at every which angle and it in turn catches your attention and its a never-ending cycle. So these pics are before the matte topcoat. If you want to know how I got the previous combo, all I did was two coats of OPI Funny Bunny, which is a white semi-sheer jelly...not so extravagant on its own but really makes a difference in this manicure as opposed to a white creme. And here are the pics after the matt topcoat.

I think the last picture is the clearest because I used a much better camera for it. I just adore the awesome effect the matt gives it. I feel like it captures all the flakies in still time and you can see all the different light flickers together. I couldn't think of a better way to wear this mani than simply as it was. Love Love Loved it! Try it out you guys...You wont be disappointed.

Well not as disappointed as I am with my sad sad nails. I dont know what to do? Has this every happened to anyone of you? Any tips?

Thats all for now loves!

Nail Art...Hit or Miss!?

Hey guys! Hows it going? Today I want to show you some nail art I did quite a while ago but Im not really sure whether its a hit or not. My sis seems to think its really cool but I'm not totally into it. Individually I like the designs on each nail...I dunno, you tell me.

Strange, huh? Well let me break it down. I did a slanted cheetah print on my thumb with the base of Color Club Incognito and dotted the cheetah with OPI Senorita Rose-alita. For my index I used a base of Color Club Oh Naturale and Did the rose with Essie No More Film. My middle finger is done the same as my thumb but with a full print. My index finger is Orly Ingenue. My pinky finger is the same base as my index but the rose is made with Essie Olie Caliente. The leaves design are with .Sally Hansen Green with Envy.

So, Hit or Miss?

OPI Go On Green

Hey everybody! Whats goin on? So today I want to show you another color I've used in some of my posts without ever properly swatching it. It's Go On Green by OPI. I'm really trying to go through my polish stash before my massive shipment of polishes comes in. So this is just another one I found today and thought I needed to go through. This color is technically not green so I dont know why they named it that but anyway here it is...



OPI Go On Green



I really dont know what to think of this color. On the one hand its very summery and fun and on the other hand I dont think its flattering on my nail shape. The last time I tried it on I thought it really complimented my skintone and nail shape and now I dont really like it. Plus I've gained alot of ridges in my nails recently (joy!) and so because this color is super sheer you must use a ridge filler before or else every single ridge in your nail will be defined, just like my nails in these pics.

Go On Green is a sheer blue base with green glitter all throughout which gives it a duochrome appearance in lights although I couldn't get the green shimmer to show up in these pics but its very visible in life. This color required three coats to become like this but I would even go in for another coat because its actually very sheer, I have some VNL in my pics. Application was good and easy so thats a plus.

As for skin tone appropriatness if your skin is like me and looks super tan and nasty with sheer light colors dont go for this. I really didn't think it was flattering on me right now but it still is a very beautiful color. Thats all for now. Peace and Love!

OPI Senorita Rose-alita

Hello chicas! Hows it going? Today I have on a beautiful nail polish that makes me want Summer to come all the faster so I can put on more bright nail colors. Its funny, when Summer is actually here I think its too hot and the weather is disgusting but when I'm in the middle of Winter I wish I wasn't. Never satisfied...eh. Anywho, I absolutely adore this color and I'm sure with a slight tan it would look smoking! So for anyone who ever wondered whether they should get it or not...take a look and then decide.



OPI Senorita Rose-alita



Do you see that lovely shimmer? There's nothing I love more than a deep colored polish with gold shimmer. It makes me wanna dance! I seem over ecstatic about nail polish dont I...well I'm a geek that way! Ok so Senorita Rose-alita is a deep pigmented pink almost raspberry with a gold shimmer spread evenly through it. This was two coats and it doesn't need anymore. See how super shiny it is...Yeah, no topcoat! This polish really surprised me..in the bottle it looked cute so I got it. Inside I wasn't in love with it...but outside it came to life. Anyway, thats it for today. Have a great day!

Spring Nail Art

Hey everyone! How's it going? Today I have a design that I did a week ago but never posted because I took pictures of it when the weather was pretty bad and they didnt come out as clear as I wish. Originally, this morning I was going to do a nautical themed manicure but with my luck the weather was completely and absurdly awful. Kinda funny, tho! Anyway so the nail polish I used for this is...OPI! Yes, I found OPI in Jordan. You'll notice in my 11 questions tag that thats the nail polish I wish I had access to here in Jordan. The very next day from posting that I thought I would take a trip to my favorite beauty store and I walk in and WAAM. Right in front of my face is a section of OPI nailpolishes and a poster for one of their collections (I do think it's an old one though). Anyway, long story short I got a cool OPI which I tried out last Thursday and here are the pictures today.

And this is Go On Green by OPI by itself


OPI Go On Green

Go On Green is beautiful blue with duochrome green shimmer. It's opaque at three coats and gives the most amazing softness to your hands when it's on. It looks so fresh and girly and thats probably because it's an iridescent sheer polish. Anyway, really great polish...not great pictures.. at all. Thats why it took me so long to post them, but when I saw how bad the weather was today I realized I'm not getting good pics today either so I might as well post something. So, thats all for today...Have a great one!
