NOTD: Layla Jade Groove

Moving right along ... not quite as quickly as I'd like, but quicker than I've managed recently LOL so I guess I shouldn't complain.  Another holo - apparently I was on a kick - this one is actually a very light green but it's hard to tell in most of the lighting, you just see the holo effect.  This is Jade Groove:

And here's a look at it in motion:

I'm not only enjoying editing my old manicure pics - I'm enjoying all the pics I'm finding while digging through them =)  Here's a bonus pic of Dude looking very alert & serious:

NOTD: Layla Metallic Sky

OK, so I didn't get much done over the weekend but never fear - I'm not going AWOL again =) One more magnetic beauty before we get to March - which I treated as a theme month on YouTube.

This is a combination, the polish is Layla Metallic Sky, but I used the China Glaze magnet for the star design - which, if you don't already know, is THE trickiest magnet pattern to get looking decent LOL.  But I was pretty happy with my results:

For the second day I added Warpaint Beauty Mattify:

Finding some other cute things in my trek through old pics - these were, after all, taken in February - and while I was out taking pictures I couldn't resist the perfect snow & made a lil mini-snowman:

Next on my catchup list - water marbles, water marbles & more water marbles as I revisit Water Marble March!

Thanks for reading.

NOTD: Zoya Dannii

I meant to get this up last night, but at some point I just got too tired & didn't finish editing the pictures ... but oh well - that's what weekends are for, right?  Staying up late & sleeping in lots =)

Zoya Dannii is from this spring's Intimate collection.  In the bottle the shimmer in this purple polish looks kind of silver, but on the nail the shimmer transforms to gold:

And here's what a failed patch looks like - looks worse than it was, but thank goodness I always have nail glue with me:

I love purple <3  I've mentioned it before, but for new readers purple is the only color that has 2 drawers in my Helmers LOL, although blue & green are both trying to catch up.

Bonus pics - the peonies are in bloom:

Thanks for reading =)

NOTD: Sunirse Burst Water Marble

Bright, summery, fun colors - I quite like this even though it's not the design I originally thought I could pull off.  Base is 2 coats of Color Mates Spring Fling, marbling done with Spring Fling, Color Mates Fuchsia Flash, & China Glaze Thataway:

Favorite nails - left thumb & index, right pink & ring:

& the tutorial:

Bonus pics - this is the kind of weather we're dealing with - nearly 90 degrees (mind, it was snowing last Monday), mammatus clouds, and hail - some pretty as an agate, some bigger than a quarter!

Too humid for doing nails ... so mom's marble is put off yet another day LOL.  Thanks for reading =)
