Priti NYC Dandy Dahlia

Pin It How was your Easter weekend everyone? Hope it was a good one!
Over here was really busy. I cooked for 10 people and Easter dinner was at my house. I am mastering the Easter menu and my homemade rolls was a hit!
I love having people over but I've been so busy I don't get to enjoy it a lot cause my mind is on the next thing I need to do. Bad. I know.
I had an Easter mani but don't know where I placed my flashcard :( will post pictures when I find it.
But anyways, weather is looking a lot more like Spring lately except last week we had a snow storm that came out of nowhere. It melted right away though by a shinny bright warm sun. And that calls for some bright colors on my nails!
Here I have Priti NYC Dandy Dahlia. Pictures show it to be a little too brighter than it really is in real life. It's more like a peach orange packed with fine gold shimmer to it. Sad that we can't see that on the pictures that doesn't really make justice to this polish. It's beautiful in person. I am in love with this shade. Priti NYC have really good polishes from formula, colors to application, brush. Plus, it's a 3free and non-toxic polish. Gotta love it! Read more about Priti NYC HERE.



Visit Priti NYC on Facebook.  I am still trying to get used to the new Facebook timeline and Priti NYC have one of my favorites. Head on over there and LIKE them HERE!!

My Thanksgiving Mani

I was neglecting blogging but just cause i did not had the time to upload pictures to my computer and then here. It's late but it's finally here and I'm updating my blog. Hope you guys still enjoy seen my pictures even if they are belated to its date. Hope you all had a fun and safe Thanksgiving though :) I kept myself busy making yummy rolls and a sweet potato cassarole with marshmallows to mingle with family.
Anyways, watch what I had on my nails!


 What I did was I started with my color base being NYC Fifth Avenue a shimmer orange cooper polish. Love the NYC nail polishes. Easy application and beautiful colors.


Then I started playing with some sponging using Sally Hansen Insta-Dri Bronze Ablaze. I knew I wanted to do something over it so I kinda did the sponging in a deliberate way.


Then yeah, I found what I was looking for, leaves and leaves. I absolutely love this mani. Hope you guys love it as much as I do.

Monday Mani - Happy Halloween - Color Club Wham!Pow! + Nicole by OPI Black Texture

Welcome Monday and Happy Halloween!!
This is gonna be super quick. Sorry, I couldn't be more creative with a mani for the Halloween day. I was wearing  some cool mani the past days though. If you want to them them out go HERE
For the mani of today I had like 10 min only to do this and I knew I couldn't do a more elaborated mani. I grabbed a pumpkin neon color from Color Club Wham!Pow! and used a black shatter polish from Nicole by OPI Black Texture.


Sorry for the picture above. I had such a hard time photographing that color Color Club Wham!Pow!.The real color is more like a traffic neon orange cone. My camera usually has a hard time getting corals, oranges.
And hey, I have to go :) I hope you had a great weekend. Did you get to go to any fun Halloween party?

Halloween Series - Priti Polish - Gatsby Dahlia

I'm not a big Halloween person but I'm sure enjoying halloween mani requests I'm receiving. It's been fun. Also whatever I go I get lots of compliments on my nails. People ask "Where did you get your nails done?" and when I say "I do myself" , people are like "How?" I love that surprise face.
But here I have other Halloween mani for you guys. 
For the designs I used several nail plates, just so you know. The girl that thought my nail were so cool thought I draw these things myself. Oh, I wish i had that coordination!


Below you can see a swatch of my very first Priti Polish - Gatsby Dahlia. A very bright pumpkin jelly polish. I got this in a swap I did with Jodi. I got 3 Priti polishes.  I'll do a swatch of the 3 others latter. My opnion on this new brand is that I love the bottle (easy to hold for pictures and storage), the brush is flat which makes the application really easy. The formula is jelly and with 2 coat I could reach full coverage. I think I just don't like the color. It's sooo in your face bright. Besides that, I love my first experience with Priti polish. Also I have a hard time photographing some reds, corals and oranges. The tone of my skin changes incredibly on images. But here it is. How do you like this? Have you used or own any Priti Polish? What's your favorite color?

Essie Braziliant Swatch

Like I said yesterday I AM NOT READY FOR FALL - laugh!
I want to wear my bright colors and enjoy the sun. Please summer don't go awayyyyy. I'll you miss you so much. But it's alright! Fall starts on September 22nd and I still have some time to enjoy the warm season. I love fall don't take me wrong. I love to see al the leaves changing colors, cooler weather, beautiful colors and scents. But then it comes winter and I don't like it except I cna go snowboarding and I love that.
To enjoy my last days of summer here I have Braziliant from Essie.
It is a bright, vivid orange-red with slight pink shimmer. Very vibrant and sure bring a smile to my face. Also got love the name right? Wish I could go some Brazilian beach and sport this manicure there.

This first picture was taken indoors.


Then I went outside and took these. it so pretty!
