The Valentine's Day blehhh

Good morning!

So today's mani did NOT turn out like I had hoped -_- I was working on another Valentine's Day one and it just didn't look anything like it did in my head :( BUT I shall show you all anyways!  It's not particularly bad just not what I wanted.

I saw THIS picture from Google it's from the awesome Leslie of Polish Art Addiction and wanted to do something like it... except it didn't go that way ;)  But take a look!! :) 

Colors used:
- Layla Jade Groove
- Lime Crime Crema de Limon
- Lime Crime Parfait Day
- Lime Crime Lavendairy
- Maybelline Color Show Green With Envy
- NYC Matte Me Crazy

As you can see I was attempting to do a candy heart mani lol! I tried to do the writing too but that failed epically bad! And can someone please tell me why on earth I would mattify the beautifulness that is Layla Jade Groove? Because I'm not very sure why I would do such a thing -_- I suppose going for the whole chalky candy heart look is why but still a Layla holo should NEVER be mattified! Also Maybelline Green With Envy is just too close a color to Layla Jade Groove so you can barely see it...

Welp not every mani can turn out like I want but I will always show them to you guys here no matter how bad ;) And they don't always turn out bad, just not what I expected... sometimes they turn out even better :) 

So what do you guys think? I've got another Valentine's Day mani in the works for you all :)

Holographic leopard

Good morning guys!

So Saturday was a really amazing day for me... I went to an Ulta and found two Layla holos on clearance! I couldn't even believe it! LOL I had heard that some people were finding them on clearance so I actually went to one last Tuesday but they didn't have any :( Thankfully there are two near me and the other one had a few left! You know I scooped them up! 

I was super excited to use them so I picked Layla Coral Glam to put on. I had a slightly different idea for this mani but I ran out of time Saturday night.. so I just stamped over it with some good old leopard print :) Check it out!

Colors used:

- Layla Coral Glam

- L.A. Colors striper polish in Black

Of course the sun was already down by the time I did these so sorry no sun pics! I did shine a flashlight on them though so you can see the holo a but more ;) 

I was sad when I realized that top coat dulls the holographic effect a little :( I mean it's still there and the holographic-ness is amazing but it was a bit stronger before tc -_- Oh well!

What do you think?
