EMS Nails for Pink Wednesday

I was studying for my EMT test last night, and was getting distracted by my nails and realized I needed to take a break from studying and change my polish! :) Since Josh is a paramedic, I was definitely in the EMS mood! I got my inspiration for this mani while surfing the web a little while ago, I wish I still had the inspiration picture so I could credit the artist! :( Anyway, I used two coats of Color Clubs black holo Revvvolution, and then painted the EKG heart beat on my nails, because my boy gives me a humming bird heartbeat! Painting the beat took a decent amount of time since I used a tooth pick to do it lol
And since there was no way I could repeat the process on my right hand using my useless left hand, I opted to try another of my new Kleancolor Holos, Chunk Holo Black :) I topped both hands off with a coat of SV, as you can see in the picture above the SV did cause a bit of srhinkage :(
Here are the polishes I used in all their glory :)
Then, I made a pit stop at walmart on my way home from my man's house, and of course had to look at their polishes, where I picked up these two beauties purely based on their names:
Rescue Me and Siren. Yea, my boy has me in an EMS mood <3

Holo Fuschia Nails per the boyfriends request

Yesterday I spent a wonderful day on the boat with my man and his younger brother, Randy. :) When we got back to my place I had a very special package waiting for me-ahh exciting! My package of 9 Kleancolor Holos had arrived :) So my boyfriend got to see my nailpolish excitement first hand lol I have spared him the horror of watching me have anything to do with nail polish :P Anyway! I asked him what color I should use first and he picked out Chunky Holo Fuschia, so who am I to say no to my man??
Since the holos looked pretty sheer, I started my mani with one coat of Kleancolor Metallic Fuschia :) Which is one of my favorite polishes, it goes on so smoothly and it's super metallic, and dries very quickly.
I then put two coats of Chunky Holo Fuschia on and completed the mani with a coat of SV. I LOVE this holo, it's very eye catching and sparkley. I went outside to take pictures and couldn't believe the shine this polish puts off. I can't wait to use the rest of the collection!
Here are the polishes I used: Kleancolor Chunky Holo Fuschia, and Metallic Fuschia.
Here are the boys on the boat yesterday, Josh (my man) on the left and his younger (and single) brother Randy on the right :)

Pink Wednesday & the L Word

It's Wednesday! That means pink polish :) and a chance to try out my new pretties!!! I used 4coats of Color Club Vintage Couture, it is a very sheer pigment, and it took about 4 coats to get all the brush strokes out.. I topped it with two coats of the new Wen n-Wild Hannah Pinktana, which is a really soft small holo. and I LOVE IT! I tried to capture the sparkle in the polish in the picture above (sorry for the yellowish tone to the photographs tonight, my camera was having a hard time with my white focus :( )
Here's the pink dynamic duo! I love the way Hannah Pinktana went on, it was extremely creamy, and it put a nice even coat of the holo on each nail :) I'm pleasantly pleased with this polish!! I can't wait to go back to Walgreens and pick up the rest of this new collection :)
Here's just a comparison picture of the plain Color Club polished nails vs. the wet n' wild holo coated nails. I tried to get a good image to show just how awesome the Hannah Pinktana polish is! I stamped my nails using Kleancolor Metallic Black and my BM cheetah print plate!

I know you guys probably think I am insane for posting this blog at 2 in the morning, knowing that I have to be up at 6:30, for a full day of internship/emt work until 10pm. But, awesome things have been happening in my life. I've spent some amazing quality time with my friend Nia...which I PROMISE to blog about tomorrow, or Thursday as soon as I have the time! But also, I've been spending great time with Josh. As you guys read I met his family on Monday and it was spectacular. I really enjoyed their company and his mom cooked an amazing meal! Since his birthday is on Friday we also did a small celebration with birthday cake :) This boy definitely has me swooning. <3

Babysitting & Purple Holo Nails

After my mall haul of polish with my bestie today, I was looking forward to getting to play with my new polishes, but there was a problem, I had to babysit at 5 tonight :( THEN it was like the polish heavens opened up and the family I nanny for, asked me to come at 5:30 instead! YES! that gave me just enough time to switch up my mani and try some new stuff on!
I used my *new* Kleancolor Holo Chrome for this look, I layered 2 coats of it over my mini Nicole by OPI Justin Beiber collection polish, and finished with a top coat of SV.
The name of it escapes me right now, I'm still at my nanny job. But, isn't that little bottle just adorable?
I love the way this polish sparkles, this is my very first time using Kleancolor nail polish and I am extremely impressed with it! It was a nice formula, and went on nice and heavy, I probably did not even need to use base coats of the Nicole by OPI polish, the Kleancolor polish would have easily coated my nails in a nice color. I'll try it alone next time :)
And just for some fun, this is me and the little girl I nanny, we were pretending to be Angry Birds while waiting for the game to reload on my phone...which took around 10 minutes, and to a 7 year old that seems like 2 hours. :)

Polish Haul!!!

Jess and I hadn't had a girls date in awhile, we've both been busy the past week, and it's been a complete bummer! :( BUT! Today, after seeing Josh, I was in dire need of girl time. Jess and I were talking on facebook chat and I was like "I need to go nail polish shopping!" So off we went! We went to a local mall that neither of us had been to in awhile, and we had a blast-as usual-together! haha! Jess FINALLY got American Psycho (lol) and I picked up a copy of Signs (I love Joaquin Phoenix)..SO lets get to the polish!!
Polishes: (top row) Borghese mini polishes Confetti Collection; Hot Topic Glow In the Dark small Holo polish; Klean Color polishes in: Metallic Black, Holo Chrome, and Metallic Fuschia.

(Second row) E.L.F. Polishes in Twinkle, Golden Goddess, and Cranberry; the entire collection of my haul; part of the Color Club pack I found conataining: Space Case, Ultra-Astral, Wink Wink Tinkle, You Got Soul-ar, Glitter Envy, Otherworldly, Starry Tempress Topcoat.

(third row) Hot Topic glow in the dark holo glitter, the color club collection; and my favorite find of the day from Pac Sun Black Poppy (no polish name) with it an awesome black polish with small holo glitter in it!

Also not pictured in the collage above (oops!) is my last polish find, a mini pack of Color Club All About Color polishes:
Jess makes me laugh so hard, whenever I'm buying nail polish with her, she always tells the sales people "she has a blog" hahaha it's so funny. She works at Starbucks and isn't allowed to paint her nails, so when I was browsing polishes she pouts and goes "this makes me want to paint my...toe nails!" :) She's the best!
