Glitter Butterfly Wings

When I purchased the Painted Polish fall collection I immediately thought the micro glitter polishes looked like the colors of a monarch butterfly wing. I've been planning on doing this mani for months, and I'm glad I finally did it! I feel like I have sparkly, opulent jewels on my fingers. Doing this mani also renewed my love for Fireside Flannel, seriously one of the most beautiful polishes that I have.

This is Painted Polish Holo Harvest, Dreaming In Rustic, Fireside Flannel and Midnight Mischief with KBShimmer Eyes White Open.

Just for fun, here is a few shots of my glitter base before I painted the wings.

All of the Painted Polish glitters used in this mani and being retired, so if you like them now is the time to snatch them up! At publishing time they are all still available for sale at paintedpolish.com

Stay Sparkly,

Happy Valentine's Day!

How is it already Valentines Day?  2016 is just flying by. Here are some mani's I have done lately to get in the Valentines spirit!

Painted Polish Heartthrob Hustler
ShopKeeki Heart Water Decal


OPI Let's Be Friends
Revlon Holographic Pearls
Twinkled T Heart Vinyls

Holographic Pearls is just like China Glaze Glistening Snow. I have been hoarding my 2 bottles of Glistening Snow because it is just the most versatile, beautiful, sparkly goodness polish that I own. I'm so glad that there is a more readily available polish that gives the same opacity and sparkle.

And for the less traditional girl, some red and gold to get you in the spirit.
OPI Love Is In My Cards 
OPI Super Star Status
Twinkled T Heart Vinyls

What are you wearing on your nails this Valentine's Day? I'm in New Orleans for the weekend, so naturally I had to wear a polish from the new OPI New Orleans spring/summer collection :) Does anyone else theme their nails if they have a nail polish that represents where they are going? Just me? Haha let me know in the comments! 

Stay Sparkly,

Pink and Red For Valentines Day

Pink is one of my least favorite colors in life, but for some reason I don't actually hate it in nail polish. I decided to include red polishes here too, because I absolutely love red. Here are some of my favorite pink and red polishes that are perfect for Valentine's Day! If you want to see an actual review of any of these polishes, let me know in the comments :)
