Lacey Lilac & In the Spotlight

This is Sally Hansen's Xtreme Wear Lacey Lilac. Its a light purple creme and I think its a perfect spring shade!
(One coat, no flash)

I decided to add Sally Hansen's Xtreme Wear In the Spotlight over top and, It turned out much better than it looks in these photos. In the Spotlight is a silver, holographic string glitter.

Black & White Mani

I've been seeing quite a few tape manis around lately, so I figured I'd try one out. I decided to keep it simple by just using black & White. I used Sally Hansen's White On and Black Out.

Del Sol Ruby Slipper

(Inside, no flash, two coats)

Del Sol is a neat brand because their polishes change color in the sunlight! Ruby Slipper starts off as a wonderful silver glitter in a clear base, and when in the sunlight it turns into an incredible red! The only problem I had with it was that I'm not such a good polish applier and my mistakes showed up during the color change. Oh well, I still love it!

China Glaze Turned Up Turquoise

(Inside, no flash, two coats)

Turned Up Turquoise is part of China Glaze's neon collection. Its a great turquoise green-blue color and it drys sort of matte, so if you're willing to not use a top coat, you get a really cool effect.

China Glaze Lightning Bolt Crackle

Lightning blot is a white crackle polish from China Glaze. I layered it over Sally Hansen's Black Out and Cover Girl's Red Revolution.


Nicole by OPI You Can!

You Can! is an awesome nude from Nicole by OPI. It's kind of peachy, but it's got a sort of metallic finish which looks great.

China Glaze Celtic Sun



(Inside, no flash)

Celtic sun is a neon, and I mean neon, yellow. I love the color, but I wasn't to impressed with the formula. I have seven, yes seven, coats on and you can still see my tips. So I would recommend wearing a creme white or yellow underneath.
