Amateur Polish Guru Is Me

Fall into Autumn with me as I drool over this quad of a collection by What Addiction? Polish. 🤤 These shades are vampy, sexy, & mysterious all at the same time.  Here is a first look at the newest collection, who else is excited about these, besides me?  ••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••• Bonfire Embers Let's start off with a mega vampy burgundy color called Bonfire Embers. It has a brownish-red type base & both orange and teal shimmers. It reminds me of the sparks flickering out of a bonfire before they hit the ground & disappear. ••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••• Moonlit Rain If purple rain had a companion, it'd be this polish. This polish has a deep purple base with violet, plum, and pink-purple shimmers! I love how much the shimmer gives so much depth to the already fabulous polish. ••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••• Starry Hike  ...

For those who don't know, the Talk Indie to Me box is a monthly collab of indie brands that come together & make something exclusively for the box. The theme/ inspiration changes each month.

~ What Addiction? ~ That is the - EXACT - same thing I ask when people claim I might need an "intervention." I am PERFECTLY fine, mom. 🙄 lololol Although, maybe I should also stop growling at people when they say I have too much polish & stop glaring when they say it's the same shade polish, when it's clearly not.🤨😤 *triggered* LOOOOL 😏😁   Aaaaaanyway, 😅 I was sent a 4 piece collection called 'Speckle My Fancy' to swatch & share with you all by the amazingly sweet Ana herself. ~ Her new & upcoming Indie Nail Polish company is called What Addiction? Polish . Which is the most fitting name, actually 😂 #SayingForAFriend 🤫🤥 Lets start with the packaging, which was not only so adorable, but very appropriately done so! The polishes came wrapped in their own individual bubble pouches, then wrapped with glitter accented tissue paper, & sealed with a cute thank you sticker. It included a business card, which...

Hey, lovelies.🌻 I am frequently asked for tips & tricks on how I apply glitter onto my nails, so I thought I'd share the wealth. In the application videos, I'll be using glitter sent to me by Wickedly Sick Nails . Let's get started!😍  I use a peel off base coat because I swatch a lot of things, & well, because it's easier to take off that way but you can use a regular base coat as well. My Favorite Regular Base Coat is all natural basecoat by OPI & my favorite top coat is a Walmart brand called PRO-FX quick dry top coat Salon formula.  I put a base coat of my choosing followed by a nail polish color similar to the one found in the glitter mix (so it won't contrast). That way, if you happen to miss a spot, it's not visible. I do 1 to 2 coats of said polish color depending on how sheer the polish is & let that completely dry. Then, I use American Classics yellow stopper. It is supposed to originally be used as a yellow...

Hey boo thangssss. 😍 So, this is a bit of a different type of post than we're used to (yes - as in you AND I😅). I was called out by @ SamtasticNails in one of her most recent blog posts to answer some questions about my personal thoughts on things that is Indie Polish.😅 Shall we start?🙈 • ~ • ~ • ~ • ~ • ~ • ~ • ~ • Indie Polish Tag Questions: 1. What was the very first indie polish that you purchased? My very first indie polish was off of Etsy. I ordered those 5 polishes from @ AnnBoyarLuxuryBoutique . They made gorgeous polishes & I bought them after seeing @ NailArtByFrida PR them. Unfortunately, they are not available anymore for the time being.😣 2. What's an indie polish lemming that you want but have never been able to get your hands on? Lemming? Hold up, 😅😶. "Ok, Google.🤔 Define lemming... ... ... ... Lmao what? Rodent? *searches more* ... ... ... ohhhhh, gotcha!😆" ...Ok, I'm back. 😂😂 My favorite Indie poli...

Behind the Lens The Making of my Nail Tutorials Hey, lovelies! 🌻    I am always messaged questions about how I make my tutorials & any tips I have to offer. After holding a poll on my Instagram story, a lot of you seemed to have wanted me to share the wealth! Which is awesome & totally happening right now, actually, as you read. 😂😁 I got some replies asking why I was so okay with sharing my golden tricks about how to start a blog or how I make my videos... My answer - Another nail artist is not my competition. We both are passionate about the same things. We both need to succeed. If I was struggling to stay true to what I loved most (nail art) & I was stuck in a hunch, I personally know many that would do the same for me.    💞Please know that I did my research & went through trials & errors trying to find the perfect apps that worked for me. These are the apps I have found to work best & remain stable & consistent up...

January has blessed us with this amazzzzzing turquoise polish from  My Stunning Nails  for only $5! What!  Y E S ! It is called 'A Play on Turquoise' . It has brown micro glitter & a touch of gold flakes that just come together beautifully in this turquoise shade.💙 I swatched this twice. It takes either 2 generous applications or 3 very thin applications - depending on your own polishing preferences, that is.💅 The formula was a beautiful consistency & the color is everything I could've ever hoped for & more! It has a sort of green-blue shimmering shift to it that makes it that much more captivating when it meets the eyes.😍  I don't know about you, but I am feeling all sorts of mermaid vibes right now. 😄😁 Check out the swatch video below & tell me if you feel the same 😎 Check out the shop here: www.Shop.MyStunningNails.com for more & use my code " prKG20 " for 20% off all regularly priced p...

Hey, beauties! 🙈 You all know how much I LOVE nail care & after a few months of pondering, I've decided to start the process of making my dreams a reality today, on 1.8.18.🙌 I hope to officially launch for my 25th birthday, so here's to hoping everything leading to 11.18.18 goes smoothly. 🤞 The products I'm going to be offering vary from cuticle care to bath additives.🌻 I have SO MUCH in mind! After I launch, I will be incorporating my creations in slowly rather than bombard you with so many items all at once - That way we can grow together; I like the idea of that. I hope you do as well. 🌹 Thank you for the support & the love you have bestowed upon me in 2017. Here's to a beautiful 2018. 🍾 Cheers.🥂 Find my new & upcoming brand on Social Media: Facebook Instagram & when I start posting listings for sale/pre-order, I'll update this to add my Etsy shop. 🌻
