Fishbowl Friday 070 // Glitterbomb

After a little bit of a cold spell brought a whole lot of rain, well, the end of this week was in dire need of some sparkles. This whole April showers thing is great and everything, but I'm ready for all the May flowers! So here's a little bit of a GLITTERBOMB to cap off the last Friday in April. Polishes Used: 1 Coat Fingerpaints Smooth Over Ridge Filler 2 Coats SinfulShine True Kolor 1 Coat Rainbow Honey Cosmic Microwave Sky 1 Coat ILNP Kaleidoscope 1 Coat ILNP Ferris Wheel 1 Coat Pahlish Gumdrop Rooftop 1 Coat I Love Nail Polish Kaleidoscope 1 Coat SinfulColors Clear Coat 1 Coat Seche Vite Earlier this week, I finally ordered two polishes that I've been wanting for a while. They're both ultra chrome flakies from ILNP. Kaleidoscope is described as purple, magenta, green, gold, and turquoise flakies, while Ferris Wheel contains a mix of green, gold, blue, red, purple, and pink. Is it really any surprise that I had to layer them together?

FIshbowl Friday 069 // Earth

You know, every now and I then I do pick prompts that work perfectly with a new polish I've just purchased. This time, though... I did pick two prompts to choose between. One of those happened to be EARTH , so I went with that, consider that today is Earth Day.  Polishes Used:  1 Coat Fingerpaints Smooth Over Ridge Filler 2 Coats SinfulColors Navy I Do Essie Leggy Legend Pahlish Gumdrop Rooftop SinfulColors Garden Party SinfulColors Navy I Do SinfulColors Snow Me White SinfulShine Kovet 1 Coat SinfulColors Clear Coat 1 Coat Seche Vite I've been wanting to do a seriotype for a while now, and this prompt was the perfect chance. I wanted my nails to look like the view of EARTH from space, and I've gotta say... I think I got pretty close!  I started out with Navy I Do from SinfulColors. It was practically a one-coater, but I used two coats so I could wrap my tips. I figured that if I wanted the green to show up, I should probably p

Fishbowl Friday 068 // Simple

Happy Friday guys! How good does it feel that the weekend is here and the weather is fiiiiinally starting to warm up? Sooooo good, right? The prompt I pulled for this edition of Fishbowl Friday was SIMPLE . Pretty open ended, but I settled in on just one nail polish in my go-to favorite color. Pink. Polishes Used: 1 Coat Fingerpaints Smooth Over Ridge Filler 3 Coats Rainbow Honey Le Marguerite Rose 1 Coat SinfulColors Clear Coat 1 Coat Seche Vite I know I have said it at least a few dozen times before, but I'm pretty sure this time I mean it. I have found the most perfect hot pink nail polish. Okay, well technically speaking, it actually found me. Le Marguerite Rose was one of the polishes in my April mini mystery bag from Rainbow Honey. I picked the prompt and opened up the bag and knew that I had to use it immediately. What's so special about it? When it comes to hot pink, I am typically drawn to more blue-toned pinks. But, if they're too cool,

SinfulShine Too Cool For Pool

Hey guys! I know it's been a little while since I last posted, and I'm sorry about that. I want to get back to blogging more regularly, I just need to figure out a better way to make it happen! Things are good, though. The new job is great, Mr. Sparkle and Sparklegirl are awesome... life is definitely busy, but full and wonderful at the same time, you know? Enough about me, though... today, I want to show you a polish from SinfulShine, a brand that I've been wearing a lot lately. This particular shade, Too Cool For Pool, well, I've worn it twice in the past month. That's how much I really like it!  Polishes Used:  1 Coat Fingerpaints Smooth Over Ridge Filler 4 Coats SinfulShine Too Cool For Pool 1 Coat SinfulColors Clear Coat 1 Coat Seche Vite Back when the SinfulShine line first debuted at Walgreens, I picked up a few shades. One of the most noted at the time was Prosecco . There was quite a bit of buzz in the blogosphere about tha
