Kiko Cupcake Polishes #649 #651 #656 Swatches & Review

Happy Friday everyone! I'm so sad that my spring break is over but I kind of like getting back into my routine you know? Is anyone else like that haha? Also my other exciting announcement: I got into grad school! I'm so happy and relieved because the program I applied into has quite high standards. I look forward to starting some grad classes along with finishing my Bachelor's degree in the fall.

Today I have some more Kiko polishes to share with you guys! I actually got these free when I bought the other three that I reviewed a bit ago. I think they're discontinuing or getting rid of them but I'm not sure. Last time I checked on the Kiko website they were on sale so I apologize if you can't get them anymore (then again you could probably find them somewhere on the internet). Anyway if you want to see my full thoughts and swatches of Kiko Cupcake polishes #649 #651 #656, look for them after the jump!

OPI Hello Kitty Collection Swatches & Review

Hello my lovelies...it's been quite a while right? I normally don't disappear for so long but I was having a lot of problems in my personal life and I was slammed with work because Spring Break was coming up. Things in my personal life have since gotten much better and now that my crazy week before Spring Break is over, I can finally relax for a minute. Other than that, I have exciting news! I'll announce the first now and the second in another post next week~ My first exciting announcement is I'm going to be studying abroad in South Korea this summer! I won't be gone the whole summer, just 6 weeks or so but I'm still very excited to finally go back!!

Now onto my actual post: the OPI X Hello Kitty collab that slayed my life. When I first found out OPI was coming out with this collection, I about died. I realize that this post is "old" because the collection has been out for a while now and OPI is moving on to the New Orleans collection for spring (which I've got my eye on a few of those ;) ) but I figured that I still should post it anyway. I don't get PR or normally have enough money to afford to preordering the whole collection, so I have to wait until it hits the stores. I love OPI and Hello Kitty anyway. I ended up picking up 4 shades, two individually and two came in a set with a little Hello Kitty coin purse. For swatches and my full review on these polishes, check it out after the jump!

St. Patrick's Day 2016 Nail Art

Happy St. Patrick's Day everyone !

Long story short, sorry for not posting in awhile. My next post will fully explain why I've been missing, but for now I just wanted to hop on here and share my St. Paddy's Day nail art!

I used a lot of different things haha. For the green on my pointer and ring fingers, I did a base of Essie Vices Versa then sponged Color Club Angel Kiss on the tips and somewhat gradient-ed it upward!


For my middle finger, I did a base with China Glaze Mingle With Kringle then went over it with a layer of Zoya Maria Louisa. This combo reminds me so much of the "Golden Egg" bath bomb from Lush which I totally adore as well. 


Finally for my ring finger, I first laid down a white base with my favorite Nature Republic 01 화이트. After letting my quick dry topcoat dry, I applied straight nail vinyls and then applied China Glaze Mingle With Kringle again. Then after I removed the vinyls, I stamped the clover using the Bundle Monster BM723 plate!


Overall, I'm so happy with the way these turned out! I think they're so cute and perfect for the occasion.
