nailingit - a positive (FRANKEN!)
I’M BACK Y’ALL! this is one of my newest frankens and it is awesome if i do say so myself. i’m so deep into frankening these days, i really can’t stop. mr. nailingit named this a positive because it reminded him of blood cells.
color club - get a clue
nyx - blue avenue
PINK WEDNESDAY!
i wish my camera would accurately portray flakies, they’re a thousand times sparklier. this is probably my least fav manicure i’ve ever done but i can’t deny the flakie goodness IRL.
opi - pink me, i’m good
ON WEDNESDAYS WE WEAR PINK.

omg y’all, i found 4 bottles of this relatively HTF polish from valentine’s day 2010 at a CVS that time forgot about. scooooooooore! shoulda seen my greedy grabby hands after i realized what i stumbled upon.
i really love this coral/pink/melon jelly packed with gold, sort of iridescent glitter.
unknown brand - silvery grey (no polish name either)
essie - kisses and bises
one day (last week or so?) i came home to a lovely little box with 2 mini polishes in it that mr. nailingit surprised me with. love him. he got them from a small boutique that sells handmade things in SF- these mini polishes are custom mixed by someone and they rule.
i had the most difficult time of my life trying to capture the pink shimmer from essie - kisses and bises, (i’m talking about DAYS of telling my cameras to go ffffffffffffff themselves) and this is the best i could do. in low light the finish is pretty opalescent and in better lighting the shimmer is very visible. i really love this manicure and i’m already on the 4th day wearing it but i don’t want to take it off yet!
china glaze - mrs. clause
this is from the 2010 holiday collection… jelly reddish/pink base with silver and pink glitter. this one kept catching my eyes all day long, loveeeeeeee.
santee - brown speckle
first off, mr. nailingit picked this up from the flea market all on his own accord. pink-champagne-ish beauty. i love ittttt!
second off, why in the world is the name on this “brown speckle?”
and lastly, i’m playing around with my watermarks because there has been a picture-stealing-and-cropping-epidemic and that annoys me very much.
china glaze - sexy silhouette
essie - matte about you
mr. nailingit suggested i matte-i-fy this color, twas an excellent idea. matte hot pink wooooooooooooooooooooo!
zoya - marley
from the new intimate collection. :)
i decided this one is valentine’s day-ish enough. pale lavender with pink tones (& super subtle shimmer). not a color i’d usually go for but i reeeally like it.
claire’s - poison apple
essie - matte about you
OH, MY, GOD. i’m obsessed with this. absolutely obsessed. never taking it off. it’s so amazing and i’m dying.
klean colors - modern wine
this was an amazing color… until i smudged them right after this photo :(
