Blood Spatter

Hey ladies! I'm still not back to regular posting yet, but I wanted to share with you some crappy, blurry iPhone photos of one of my recent manis. I was too excited about it not to. ;)

The right hand photo isn't that bad, but I for the life of me could not get a non-blurry photo of my left. I liked this mani and got compliments on it. From guys of course.

What do you think?

Is anyone still out there? I'm having issues with my camera. I think it's time for a new one. I wouldn't post these pictures normally, but I want to show you guys that I'm not backing out of blogging, just that I can't take good pictures to even post. You also get to see my uneven right hand that I STILL haven't evened out since I lost my ring fingernail in Corpus.

Somethings wrong with the something or other, I don't remember. But I think it's on its last legs.

Okay, for all of you that were wondering where I was, I was visiting with my aunts and little cousin for a few days, then we went to Corpus for a couple days. I wasn't able to post my NYX Jungle or ChG Emerald Fitzgerald manis because I didn't have time to take photos. Then when they left I got all sad and depressed blah blah, and didn't feel like doing my nails or blogging. I'm back now though, one follower less and a few nail casualties, but I'm good! My nails held up amazingly, I thought they'd all be gone since they were naked the entire week or so, but they stood up to the abuse of water and other things.

Last but not least, I wanna say thanks to all the wonderful ladies that read and comment on my blog. It makes me happy to be able to share my obsession with others!

Zoya Anaka

Really pretty jewel toned magenta. Nothing much left to say about it!

Zoya Charla

Please don't slap me, but I'm gonna show you yet more photos of Charla. A lot of these are unfocused because it looked better that way in photos.

My ring and pointer nails looks so creepy. I swear they don't look that creepy in real life. It's all because of that weirdo curving that long nails seem to get. I don't know why, but it pisses me off. Man, can I ever stop complaining and being negative? Probably not.

Later! =)

LA Girl Rock Star Addict

How's everyone doing? Today I did my nails with LA Girl Rock Star Addict. This color has to be in my top (insert number) reds, up there with Ruby Pumps. I have ChG Stroll too, which I think is a dupe to this. So that needs to be up there too. But back to Addict. It has such beautiful gold and red flake glitter in a maroon jelly base. Sometimes it looks like the dark red color and sometimes it looks like a burnt brown red, almost completely brown. I loves it.

Gah, my middle nail is taking forever! I know I keep filing it to shape it, but damn it, I'm impacient!

Close up *drools*

Haz click it!

Orly Royal Navy

Royal Navy. What more is there to say about it that hasn't already been said? It's beautiful. Oh wait, that's already been said. This is 3 coats. I didn't have VNL like it shows in the photo. Which is weird cause it's supposedly not a jelly and jellies always seem to show up like that on camera on my long nails. I should probably just stop trying to describe colors and finishes and leave that to the polish queens. I'm just a lowly peasant. In fact, you should probably leave here since my photos of this suck and there are much better ones out there.

I'll shut up and stop boring you with my negativity, but first, how about a picture of the kitten?

I just wanna bite that little belly!

That's better. I did some white konad spiders over it after a couple days, though I don't have photos of that. Once again excuse the broken nubbin.

Now these next ones are really bad, but they show the shimmah!

Sorry for the glare.

WowSoCool

An early birthday gift from my what shall I call him, SO. =D He was too excited to wait. Awww. Sounds familiar though. Oh, back to Konad.

I didn't leave that plate all dirty like that. It was my thief of a sister.

My favorite image is the unicorn...NOT!

China Glaze Visit Me In Prism

I know I've already posted this before, but that was bad quality photos. I love holos and I don't know if it's just me, but they seem to accentuate my nails (not because they draw attention) and make them look so nice. I only have two holos. I need more holos in my life. Like now. I just wanna dive into that rainbow soup. Oh where was I? This is three coats without top coat.

Holy schnapps, f-ed up nail!

It's weird how my nails look so long in pictures. They don't look so long to me in real life.

Sparklez...

Which do you like best, the OMG or Kaleidoscope holos?

Claire's Fabulous/Funky

I get such a kick out of these Mood Polishes. I want the new ones! The pinks probably my least favorite though, just cause the funky french effect isn't as obvious as it is on the others.

Now you're probably wondering why I have a smiley face, or in this case a sad face, on my middle finger. (I'm a paint expert.) It's that that's the nail that tore and I had to glue back. Well, it decided to be an a*shole, so I just tore it off all the way. It's like nonexistent major nubbin nail and I don't want you all to see!

*Something to keep in mind: The warm color is a really bright neon pink, so imagine this pink but super bright.

You can see the funky french look better in this photo.

So, do the faces bother you? If so, I guess I'll try to do two or maybe three finger swatches. Or maybe wait til it grows out. I'd use my right hand, but the middle finger also broke a while ago on that hand. I guess my middle fingers have been used a lot...

Zoya Nidhi

Okay, let me start off first with these pictures suck because 1. It wouldn't stop raining and 2. I had no acetone which means no cleanup. My middle finger nail was also glued on, so it looks pretty weird. Which is sad because this is a pretty color. I just wish the gold sparkle would show up more.

You can see the sparkle in these two photos.

These are both wrong color-wise, but they show the pretty red and gold shimmer/sparkle/glitter/whatever.
