AN Monday, Christmas Tree Nail art

Morning...and welcome to another AN Monday!

We are now in December!!!!! so its Xmas all month long for ANmonday, and to kick off the month we have the theme of Christmas Trees.

Now i have a confession to make...... i did my nails yesterday,not thinking of todays ANM and im sporting mermaid nails.(post to follow) so i managed to convince Zoe to let me use her as a hand model for today. And to top it off, Pops wanted her nails done too!!! and exactly the same as her big sister! tho pops nails are not as good as she fidgets a lot they kind of look the same.....

Ok so here are the pics.......

 And here are Poppys nails.....

So what did i use on the girls nails?????

For the green and red polish i used Zoya holly and chyna(which is a texture polish), for the white i used Ulta3 lily white, the glitter on the ring finger was China Glaze snowglobe and the thumb was Lynnderella eleven ladies dancing.

You can pick up Zoya from HERE, Ulta3 from HERE, China Glaze from HERE and Lynnderella from HERE. All these sites ship withing australia!!!

Until next time....

Limited Edition polish for my barnicles birthday

Hey there!

 firstly i hope you have all entered the giveaway on my last post!!!

Now this week is all about my 2 girls aka the barnicles birthdays! so with this in mind i asked my 2 girls to pick glitters to put into 2 very special limited edition polishes to sell in the month of september.

Zoe really took it seriously and went through my glitter collection and picked out some beautiful colours while Poppy just grabbed anything she saw that was pink!

After popping the glitters into a base and letting them sit for many weeks the girls got to see their creations today! and they were both happy.

so here are the pretty polishes......

First up is Zoes, called.......Barnicle 1 which is her nickname when im calling her!

It is a beautiful combo of blue and silver dots, purple glitters and a ultra fine violet glitter dust. all in a black jelly. For anyone who knows Zoe this is really "her"she loves these colours! and i think she did a great job in picking the polish colours!

Now for Poppys polish- we have named is .....Barnicle 2 ...of course!!!!

This is just Poppy! she is the polar opposite to Zoe! where Zoe is a bit of a fangirl and tom boy, Poppy is the girliest girl! she loves her accessories and you will rarely see Poppy without a hat or handbag!

It was quite funny watching Pops picking her colours, i opened the glitters boxes which have all my sample glitters in them and all she said was "OHHHH!!! PRETTY MUMMY!!!" and then proceeded to pull out nearly every neon pink glitter i owned!

Barnicle 2 is a complex glitter topper of neon pink glitters in all shapes and sizes with a fine micro holo dust through it and also a bunch of holo fuchsia glitters and fuchsia dots and white squares. there is also a pink glass flake as well in the base.

Considering Poppy just yanked glitters out of the box i reckon it turned out pretty well!

Both these polishes will be on sale from tomorrow 9th september 2013 at 9am till 30th september 2013.

they will be $9.50 each or $16.95 for the twinset.

you can find them at LOKIS LACQUER or you can also contact me on LOKIS LACQUER FACEBOOK PAGE If you live outside of australia.

Until next time......

Celestial Cosmetics- Poppy's Flower Swatch and review.

Hello there everyone! Today i have a beautiful polish up for review.
I have to admit i am a little bias as this polish was inspired by my little one pops. so you can see why i would just love this polish. But irrelevant of the name i fell in love when i popped it on my nails!!!

Introducing.......... Celestial costmetics Poppy's Flower. I was lucky enough to receive this bottle of polish for my birthday group pressy so i have got it before its release on 1st July.

Now im not a huge fan of red polish, tho since i had the Pops i have grown to love a lot of red and orange polish purely because i have started to collect all polish with the name Poppy.

Poppy's Flower is a beautiful red jelly with black glitter in several sizes along with some red hexes too.

how much does this represent a poppy???!!!!

I think it does perfectly!!!


So the polish itself.... All my swatches with this polish are with a clear base coat and 2 coats of Poppy's Flower and no top coat.

The quality of the polish was great and did not streak at all even when i applied my second coat only a few mins after my first coat. The polish dried really quick  but as with all polish i always recommend a Quick dry top coat just in case of an unwanted bump.

The distribution of the glitter was great, and i did not have to dab at all, just normal brush strokes to get this coverage.

Celestial cosmetics Poppy's Flower will be available from  1st July over at Celestial Cosmetics this polish is part of her new collection coming out and i really hope to eventually get all of them!!!!
