My Valentines Day Manicure!!

Hi guys happy Friday and Happy Valentines Day!!! If you have a valentines of course. I don't have one but that's okay. 

I just a simple manicure since between school, weather, and work life has been crazy!! We have about four feet of snow outside right now since yesterday's storm. My car was buried, I am so blessed that my mom and dad cleaned it off for me this morning. Thanks mom and dad!!! 

So for my manicure I went with Essie's Peach Daiquiri. Two coats will get you to opacity. I love the formula on this polish too, it's not too thin and clean up is easy. 

The. I wanted to add something more. I picked up a polish from Salon Perfect called Hearts a Flutter. It's one of there new special effects top coats. 

It consists of small pink micro glitter and giant gold hearts. 

I just used it on my accent nail. It was a little hard to get out the good hearts, I definitely had to fish for them. But they were easy to place. 

Once it was all dry I topped it off with Seche Vite! I'm not a huge fan of valentines day but I don't mind having cute nails! 

I hoped you guys enjoyed this, and I'll talk to you all soon!

45 Days Of Untrieds. Day 3 Salon Perfect: Bermuda Baby.

Hello!

Hope you are all having a fabulous Saturday! I am most certainly having a great weekend, and I will tell you all tomorrow if it is getting even better.

Today's untried is another Salon Perfect polish that I picked up at the display of the Neon Collision polishes. This beautiful polish is called Bermuda Baby, one day maybe if I am lucky I'll actually get to go there.

Anyhow this polish a wonderful blue neon polish that reminds me of the water you would see around Bermuda.

If you google Bermuda beaches you'll see how this color fits in.

The formula on this was pretty much the same as Gone Sailing.  But the humidity definitely effected the drying time. I still love, love, love this color though. its like a bright blue sky on those days where not a cloud could be found.

I did have a photo with top coat but there were so many bubble it was not blog worthy at all!

These photos were taken in (1) natural light and the second one is under the light of a lamp which I no longer have.

So thats it for today's untried. I hope you will stay with us on this journey! Don't forget to check out Adrianna's untried, and @shaylads on Instagram!

Whats your dream vacation?

45 Days of untrieds...Day 2 Salon Perfect: Gone Sailing.

Good morning! Well we have reached the weekend! Who is excited??? Not me because I have to work all weekend!

Anyway today is day two of 45, I think I am really going to like this challenge. It is definitely going to help me get through most of my untrieds although I think I may have to repeat this challenge in the future to get through ALL of them.

Today's untried is a neon polish from Salon Perfect. I don't think I have featured a Salon Perfect Polish on here before, that's interesting. This polish if you choose to go looking for it can be found with its brothers and sisters at your local Wal-Mart. I know not everyone likes Wal-Mart, but when you live in an area where you don't have access to all the 'cooler' stores then sadly Wal-Mart becomes your best friend.

The display this polish can be found on is also the display with the Neon Collision Polishes, you know the matte glitter ones.

This is my first neon teal polish. I have plenty of teal polishes but none that are neon. I'll warn you now I forgot to put top coat over the polish after I took photos of it matte so these photos are all with a matte finish.

The formula isn't the best on these neon's but you know I haven't met a neon that didn't have a problem formula in some way or another. If I am correct I had to do about three coats to achieve evenness and opacity. Since its been humid here, (and thankfully the humidity broke for a couple days starting yesterday) it hasn't been optimal polish weather.

I think this polish looks really pretty matte and if a top coat is added its going to look like the shimmery China Glaze neon's that they released last summer. If you didn't know, China Glaze and Salon Perfect are made by the same people, so if there is a color you can't find from CG you might be able to get it with Salon Perfect. That's how I got a nice bottle of Flip Flop Fantasy, but its called Flamingo Flair.

Salon Perfect Polishes will cost you about $3.98 a bottle which isn't bad at all. I hope my Wal-Mart gets in more colors so I can buy more. I need more polish like I need a hole in my head.

So that's it for day two of our untrieds challenge. Don't forget that you can go and check out my dearest polish friend Adrianna over at Morie's Nail Art, to see her untried of the day!.

Ok so this post isn't completely over yet, if you notice at the top right corner of the blog I have a small poll going. I want to know what you would like to see from Free For All Beauty Friday's, There are three choices I think sum it all up. Please take a moment and vote it would greatly help me in future blogging!!! 

Until tomorrow! <3Nicole
