Below deck

This is my first time trying a watermark on my iPhone. It's not really a watermark but it works. I find the only way I post consistently is if I post through my iPhone. This is China glaze below deck. Somehow I find myself with three shades almost exactly like this, I guess I must really like this color!! It's actually nice on applied evenly and is very work appropriate in my opinion. Below is two coats no top coat, I figured out it was my top coat causing my polish to bubble possibly I apply too much? Not sure but I'm waiting till tomorrow to apply it this time

Soft petal

So since I swatched all my polishes I put myself on a no buy until I have worn over 1/2 of what I already own. Recently. I have lots of super old polishes which I probably have worn years back but just don't recall since it was before my official obsession began. I am currently at about 35 percent and today I have a super old bath and body works polish, this must be back from early 2000 which means its probably about 10 years old I looked it up and polish never goes bad ( which sadly only fuels my addiction) anyway I didn't put any thinner in this when I should have so it's a bit clumpy, but it's such a pretty color. It needs thinner and a steady hand when applying

Strike a pose

So this is my first official opi purchase. I have a few bottles but they are steals from my mom. I still have not gotten official opi but I did get some nopi off eBay I got the full Kim kardashian spring line. I don't even like Kim like that but the colors of this line spoke to me! And I found a decent deal on all 7! Incidentally I'm trying to put myself back on a no buy till July we shall see how that goes my swatching has me up to 130 polishes and counting! On to the photos

I love the brushes on these such easy application formula was great also

St Patrick day mani

I actually felt like doing a st patty Mani! Green is my favorite color to look at (not sure if it's a money thing) but I didn't realize I had so many green hued polishes till I started searching them! I am planning a post of my stash! Or at least of my swatch wheels I decided to go by color so I don't purchase too many dupes. Anyway on to my mani
Sinful colors happy ending base
Sinful colors nail junkie glitter tips
Ring finger is vs French white base with crackle and nail junkie over- don't much like how it turned out but ahh well.
Thumb is happy ending vs French white and American apparel neon orange freehand flag!

Easy going

I started out with sinful colors easy going, rushed 1 coat over my naked nails then rushed to the store... Sadly I 4 got to fasten the top on the polish so when I came back to do a 2nd coat it was a gloppy mess, I rushed it plus that equals a sloppy mani I then topped it with barielle buda- ful fleck I'm not sure if it shows in the natural sunlight pic

China glaze electric beat

From the china glaze electricpop collection. Formula was heavenly 2 coats w top coat. I love this blue neutral yet bright and not too boring very spring! It's been nice here in NYC so I wanted to brighten my nails
After 2 days I added some nicole by opi pink with stamp special polish blue to change up my mani... And yes I did imprint my nails by sleeping on them a few hours after I painted them :(

Barielle out-grey-geous

I just did a transdesign haul and got a bunch of barielle polishes this is my first wear! Out-grey-geous needed 3 coats to full opacity I love the gold shimmer and decided to bring it out by adding a top coat of wet-n-wild the gold and the beautiful I loved the result of this Mani even tho I usually don't like silvers. I'm on my 5 th day of this Mani and no chips yet.

Stamping and crushed plum

I started with old Victoria's secret crushed plum color. Then I stamped with china glaze admire plate bm11 then I topped it all off with sponging on Sally hansens rockstar pink glitter this mani was also long lasting I think I was a bit over ambitious and didn't totally live this Mani but it grew in me after about 2 days.

Addition to American apparel mani

This is a kinda sample post to see how well posting works from my iPhone

I must say I was very impressed with the AA formula as well as how well this polish lasted ( full week) I hope phone posting allows me to keep up more. I'm probably going to have to abandon my watermark but it's a small price to pay for consistent posts :)
