May the 4th be with you........ Star Wars Nails!


So today is #starwarsday so I figured I would do some cool Star Wars nails.

Out came my OPI's and off I started.

I used OPI Black Onyx, Alpine Snow, Don't mess with OPI, 50 years of style and a bunch of acrylic paints. Oh and some brown flock from my craft stash!

I hand painted all the of the images my self.
I even did both hands different!!!


Lto R - R2D2, C3P0, Bobafett, Darth Vader, Storm trooper 

L to R- lightsabers, Jawa, Greedo, Chewbacca and Han solo

As you can see my left hand is not as good as the right as I am left handed, but I gave it a good go!!!!

I hope you think they are as cool as I do! Especially the fuzzy Chewbacca!!!!

Until next time...

Minion Nails!!!


Hi there everyone! 
Today I have some nail art. My girls love minions. they really do! well who would not love them?? they are so cute!! Anyways I was sent some neon polishes for testing by an indie brand and I thought I would use them to do minions. Now to be fair im actually gutted this indie brand is not releasing them. Apparently there were a few issues with the pigment but OMG these polishes were opaque in 2 coats and there was no need for a white base either!!!

OK Anyway's...... check out the mani. I used the neons and some acrylic paints.

I also did a water marble on one nail too which turned out ok.

Until next time.....

Sally Hansen Complete Salon Red Carpet Edition Swatches



*Press Sample

Hi there everyone!
Today I have the New Sally Hansen Complete Salon Manicure Red Carpet Edition polishes to share with you.
These I had seen in the shops for a week or two before I received the samples. and honestly. this collection is the best that Sally Hansen has brought out here in Oz for a long time. Don't get me wrong I love all Sally Hansen products. The formula is 99% of the time perfect and I love the colours, but lately I have been seeing what USA Sally Hansen customers have been getting......YES.....I'M TALKING THE FOIL COLLECTION ......* Stares at Sally Hansen Australia.....*  and yup it has been disappointing that we have not been getting the same stuff. The last time I checked we were in the 21st century so I don't understand why we cannot get the same stuff as USA. It makes me sad that I don't have all these polishes in my collection :(

Anyways lets get back to this amazing colour array I have today!!!!

So all of these colours have a fantastic formula. I used 2 coats with all of them apart from the silver which needed 3 coats for full opacity.
I used a Sally Hansen base coat and their big gloss coat for TC.

Let's check them out shall we????

Dance Legend Duochromes...Celia




Hi there everyone! Today I have a older but very pretty polish to share with you.
Dance Legend make the most amazing polishes. Really they do! and I cannot wait for them to start shipping to Australia again so I can purchase all their new ranges! its killing me that I see swatches and cannot get my hands on them :(

Today's Dance Legend is called Celia. It is from the monsters Inc themed collection and is an amazing shift of colours.

celia

Celia is a purple polish which shifts to blues and reds with even a goldy orange hue. The colour is quite amazing. Tho unlike all the others in the collection I don't think that this range of colours represents Celia as much as the others represented their counterparts. Saying that the colour is amazing and I only used 2 coats over black gel polish for this effect. You can wear it by itself in 4 coats but you do not get the full shifting effect.

Dance Legend can be purchased direct if you live in Russia Here. The rest of us have to find a reseller which you can find the list Here. Keep an eye out tho as hopefully soon their shipping will change and we can start buying all the pretties!!!!!

Until next time......
