Happy Valentine's Day!

 Hello! Happy Valentine's Day! This is the manicure that I am wearing for the occasion. I like that this design isn't overly Valentines-y, and could be worn pretty much any time of the year. The base color is OPI Can't Find My Czechbook, The pink is Xtreme Wear Pretty In Hot Pink, and the light blue is Zoya Blu.

V-Day Skittle

Hello! Today I have another Valentine's Day nail art! Of course I had to do at least one skittle manicure! This is what I came up with. The dark pink is Xtreme Wear Pink Punch, and the light one is Zoya Shelby. The light purple is Xtreme Wear Lacey Lilac. The purple glitter is Color Club Tru Passion, and the gold is Sultry Diva.

China Glaze Magnetix II

Hello! Today I have swatches of my picks from the China Glaze Magnetix II collection. This collection came out last September. I'm pretty late on this one... I took these pictures around Christmas and completely forgot about them. The collection included new colors, and a magnet with three new designs! From the collection I got Con-Fused?, and Sparks Will Fly. This collection is definitely an improvement on the original Magnetix, and the magnet designs are much more interesting.

Con-Fused? is a green, my only green magnetic! I used two coats, and the formula was good. This polish picked up the designs very well.

Sparks Will Fly is a blue that, when the magnet is used, shows a blurple color. It's really pretty! This polish didn't pick up the designs from the magnet as well, they weren't really defined when compared with the green, but the bulls-eye just looks so neat!

Chevron Hearts

Hello! This is my first Valentine's Day nail art this year! I should have one or two more coming. The inspiration for this design actually came from a folder I have. I really wanted to paint the design before, but I've been waiting to do it for Valentines Day! The folder has a longer chevron pattern, but this was all I could fit on my nails. I love how this one turned out!

 I used Zoya Mira, Xtreme Wear Pink Punch, Color Club Vintage Couture, and Xtreme Wear Lacey Lilac.

Zoya Vespa

Hi! Today I am wearing a nail polish from Zoya's PixieDust collection! This collection is comprised of 6 textured nail polishes of varying colors. The only one I picked up is Vespa, I'm not huge on textured nails. Vespa is a light green with a ton of sparkly silver glitters. The finish is textured, but not rough, my nails didn't end up snagging on anything! For me this chipped off within a day, but it lasted a whole week for my sister, I guess I just have bad luck. I used three thin coats for evenness and opacity.

Zoya Aurora

Hello! Today I am wearing Zoya Aurora! This polish recently came out as a part of Zoya's Ornate collection this past winter. What an amazing color! Aurora is a purple color, dense with scattered holo shimmer. The formula was amazing. For my nails I used three coats, just to make sure that there were no bald patches.

Gradient Over Zoya Paloma

Hello! Today I have a manicure that I originally saw on Pinterest. It's from Lucy's Stash, and I fell in love with the look as soon as I saw it. I'm not totally happy with how my try turned out, but it'll do! For this look you lightly brush on a color to create a gradient look. Lucy used Zoya Mimi over Zoya Paloma, and I happened to have those colors!
