Blobbicure Mix and Match

Hey guys, I hope you're all having a good day. So, I know a lot of you are eager for Spring and Summer to arrive. Well a few days ago, I started to kind of miss Fall. Lol! Call me crazy, but it's my favorite season. Therefore, I decided to do a mani with some Fall appropriate polishes.
I decided to do a blobbicure mix and match mani. It's actually my first attempt at a blobbicure, I've been wanting to try out this technique since I first saw it floating around Instagram. I don't know who came up with it, but it looked so cool I knew I had to do it. Well I chose a rich chocolate brown and a fiery orange for the blobbicure. I also used the same colors individually, and added a black nail with glitter.
I loved how this came out, and I can't believe I'm recently just trying out these mix and match manis. They look so pretty, and both times I've done them I've had so much fun.

Well thanks for stopping by, I hope you enjoyed this nail art post. Until next time guys.

Frazzle Dazzle/ 3, 2, 1derland/ Hot Lava

Yay, it's officially Fall!

So, today I have 3 swatches for you. They are Sally Hansen, one is a Hard Nails Xtreme Wear polish and the other 2 are Complete Salon Manicure polishes. They are gorgeous, and I love that the Complete Salon Manicure polishes dry pretty fast. I will try to describe each polish as best as I can.

The first one is "Frazzle Dazzle". A clear base glitter topper with copper and gold micro-glitter, various sized copper and gold hex glitters, and long black bar glitters. It's a wonderful fall polish, it reminds me of Halloween actually. I did a swatch showing 1 coat on my pointer, 2 coats on my middle, 1 coat over white on my ring finger, and 1 coat over black on my pinky.

Second up is "3, 2, 1derland". It's a clear base glitter topper with blue and green hex glitters in various sizes. This one to me is very mermaid-y or "Under The Sea". I really liked it, especially because it didn't take long to dry, which surprised me. Again, the swatch shows 1 coat on my pointer, 2 coats on my middle, 1 coat over white on my ring finger, and 1 coat over black on my pinky.

The last polish is "Hot Lava". I fell in love with this polish when I saw it, but I was afraid that it would be one of those polishes that look good in the bottle and not on the nail. Fortunately I was mistaken and it looks gorgeous. It's an orange polish with gold shimmer, I can't even describe it correctly. The picture doesn't do it justice, it's just a must-have polish. It can look coral-y in 1 coat, even a bit pinkish-orange. In the bottle you can see: orange, yellow and gold. It dries pretty quick, which I love.
