I've Been Busy!!!

With a few different things! I graduated from college at the end of April and have been preparing for the MCAT since. I've done a couple of manis, but haven't had a whole lot of time, especially when a little surprise fell in my lap! You'll see more about that in a minute... First, my nails! Here is two coats of Sinful Colors - Fig with a coat of Wet n' Wild - Kaliedoscope over top. I am such a glitter maniac! I should probably start waiting a day or so before I coat my manis with glitter just because I think they look boring at first. I've already started a no-buy, maybe I need a no-glitter for a while too!

Fig is a nice plum purple with a bit of shimmer in it, and Kaliedoscope is a scattered holo glitter.

Look at all that color and shine!

So sparkly!

But now, on to the little guy that's taken my heart and attention for the last week and a half! This is little Icarus, a former stray that my mom found after he fell through the roof to her basement! Poor little guy, huh? We thought that Icarus was a cute and suitable name for him, as he "fell from the sky" and loves to sit up on people's shoulders as high as he can get, and I mean anyone.

I can't tell if he likes my mani or not!

Waiting to go in the MINI!

He's so precious! He's had a bit of gunk in his eyes and has developed a little sickness since my mom got him when he was about five weeks old, so we have him some eyedrops and antibiotics from the vet, not his favorite thing, especially considering the vet had to use a thermometer on him! Yikes! But he's doing a lot better since we got him, and he's plumped up quite a bit and finally eating dry food. He's about six weeks old now, so we just have to pick out a birthday for him so we can spoil him on his first!

This video is one of him before he started on dry food, and would go straight to the fridge when he was hungry and start meowing for a syringe of the formula we'd gotten for him! So cute! And no, he was not starving when the video was taken, he just myows like that all the time. :D

As you can see, I left on my toenail polish forever, don't judge!

I hope you enjoyed the mani and seeing little Icarus! Happy painting!

Happy Saint Patty's Day!!!

Happy Saint Patrick's Day, everyone! I hope you are wearing your green today! This post will be a little quick because I've got some brownies cooling that are awaiting a nice coating of green icing! My manicure for today is two coats of Sinful Colors Irish Green with a coat of Sinful Colors Green Ocean over top.

Green Ocean has become a really popular polish in the nail blogosphere. The flakies of Green Ocean are so pretty, giving a nice sort of blue topping to the green of Irish Green. I used two coats of Irish Green, but since it is a jelly, it would have needed a few more coats to be opaque, but you can't really tell with the flakies added on. :D

I hope you enjoyed this mani and enjoy your St. Patty's Day!!! Happy painting!

Just a Little Sinful

Wow, sorry about all the long-time-no-see business; school has been stressful! Senior year in biology isn't a walk in the park, although I do try to take some time to myself to paint my nails and do other girlie things like shopping!!! It's been a bit extra stressful because I haven't had a car to drive myself around in until yesterday. It had been out of commission since September 2nd, our second day of school. I finally got everything fixed up with it and now it's all back in working order, thankfully! Anyways, on with the nails!

These super-bright nails are from last month, brought to you by Sinful Colors and Walgreen's! I love the Sinful Colors nail polishes I've gotten so far, and hopefully I'll continue this affair with them forever. So good!

Here is Sinful Colors - Love Nails at two coats. I would've used three if I weren't planning on layering it with glitter, which has become my weakness. I almost can't stop myself from layering everything with glitter.

And now, topped with a coat of Sinful Colors - Frenzy.

So pretty! I hope you enjoyed these!
