12 Days of The Hunger Games: Day 12

Yes.. My official countdown to the movie release date has begun.. And, as a way to aid in this countdown, I will use each one of the 12 polishes from the China Glaze 'Capitol Colours' collection.

Now, originally I said I would go in order of how often I felt I would use the polish.. That is now incorrect. SO. These are now going to be in no particular order.. Because.. After I use each one.. I love it more. It is so strange.. But I shouldn't have judged them before actually owning them.. That was my first mistake!

Anyways, on to the post..



This almost feels Halloween-y to me.. Which is great, as I freaking love Halloween. That was a necessary statement to include.

I used Orly Liquid Vinyl as the base, then followed up with some lines of OPI A Roll In The Hague, and China Glaze Electrify. On a side note - this glitter is crazy dense. Yes, I did just say 'crazy dense'. You'd be able to almost fully cover your nail in 2 coats. For some reason I always find that amazing with glittery polish.

See you for day 11!

Canada Day - Saran Wrap Style

I had said the other day that I would be using the Saran Wrap method again soon.. And I really did mean soon. I figure it was the perfect way to celebrate Canada Day (nail-wise) without over-doing it.. I mean, I'm fairly patriotic as a rule, but sometimes sporting a Maple Leaf on my fingers isn't exactly my style.. ANYways.. See? The love is there with the red and white.. I know I said the next time I did the saran wrap method, I was going to try with three colours.. But, I think I will maybe leave that experiment for tomorrow - today is only about these two colours! So.. How I get to this? Well, allow me to show you. Start off with the colours of your choice - one as the base, and one as your.. distress-er? And some saran/cling wrap. I take two pieces and ball them up.. You could use more or less.. But I figure two hands, two, er, balls. Yikes. After your base has COMPLETELY DRIED (you can do these a couple of hours in advance, the night before, or even use some

Splatter Floral Nails

Hey everyone! Last night, after I did these nails and when I went to bed - I was quite pleased with my nails. When I woke up this morning, though, I wasn't overly crazy about them. I thought of a few things I could change so that I would really like them.. I am very tempted to take how I want them to look and recreate them before work.. I might just have to do it. Anyways! Really, there is nothing wrong with them.. I just sort of find them.. boring? Ah well! I used: Lime Crime Milky Ways China Glaze White On White OPI My Favourite Ornament China Glaze Highlight Of My Summer China Glaze Sweet Hook OPI Mod About You Formula X For Sephora Infatuated Orly Liquid Vinyl China Glaze Strong Adhesion Base Coat Seche Vite Dry Fast Top Coat I made the roses with a "main" colour and white, then I did the details with the "main" colour and black mixed together. Again, I don't dislike these bad boys.. I am just not amazed by them! Also.. did you
