Dove & Fully Turqued

Hello everyone!!

Today I bring you two polish that I am insanely excited to share! Plus x 2: I think this pairing is brilliant and the names of these polish are genius!

I will start off with sharing why the polish names are genius. Zoya Dove.. I use 'dove' as a term of endearment for pretty much everyone. I call people 'my dove' or 'my sweet, baby dove', and it seems to make people smile. I adore it. And I (heart) NP Fully Turqued. Okay, I know it is a play on the added turquoise activity in the polish, but it is also a play on being fully torqued aka a line from one of my favourite shows: Workaholics. (I actually discussed it with the creator of I (heart) NP - and that is exactly where she got it from! Yes!)

Enough explanation.. photo time!




Again, I apologize for the dry shape of my mitts. Stupid *insert whatever I am lacking in my life*.

Anyways, this was three coats of Zoya Dove (which was sent in my Private Pumpkin exchange from the wonderful Silver) and a single coat of I (heart) NP Fully Turqued. Love this combo. Though I feel an orange or a pink will be my next base with Fully Turqued. Yeah, it will be magical!

See you all later.. and.. Let's Get Weird!!!

Fully Turqued is amazeballs. I'll never be done lemming. ;p Also can't wait to see it with orange. --0a burnt orange would be really rad. Thanks for showing!

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
