A Look at My Collection: Greens

For the past few weeks, I've been going through all of my polishes trying to find a better way to organize them. I always go back to organizing them by brand, so I don't know why I even bother. But, I've also been using my nail wheels a lot. I love painting them, because then I can see all the different shades I have and I can see that I don't need to keep buying one color. I've noticed that my collection of greens is pretty small, as compared to my pinks or blues. I thought it would be fun to show off my collection through nail wheels. So today I'm going to show y'all my greens!
I currently have 17 greens in my collection. There are 18 nails on the nail wheel, so the 18th nail is just a little experiment I was doing. :)
1. Sally Hansen Insta-Dri: Jade Jump
2. Sally Hansen Xtreme Wear: Lime Lights
3. L.A. Colors: Current
4. Del Sol: Looking Glass
5. Zoya: Gemma
6. OPI: Green-wich Village
7. Sinful Colors: Irish Green
8. Wet n Wild: Jade
9. Sinful Colors: Show Me the Way
10. Maybelline: Go Go Green
11. Ulta: Into the Limelight
12. Rimmel: Camouflage
13. Sinful Colors: San Francisco
14. American Apparel: Hunter
15. OPI: Here Today... Aragon Tomorrow
16. Sally Hansen Xtreme Wear: Green with Envy
17. Sally Girl: Pea-Body
18: Ulta: Pinata-Yada-Yada topped with L'Oreal I Pink I'm in Love

So those are my greens! In the first picture of the nail wheel, my Del Sol changed to its outdoor color, which is a pink-red. But, indoors and in the shade it is green. I think my favorite greens are Here Today... Aragon Tomorrow and Into the Limelight. What are your favorites? Is there anything y'all want to see on my nails?

I'm putting together a post on what polish I should wear to Florida. So far I have 10 polishes that I'd like to wear. I want y'all's opinions on those, so look for a post coming up this week!

Thanks for reading! :)

Polishes You Haven't Seen

Hey ya'll. Just FYI... this is a picture heavy post. 
Just wanted to show ya'll some polishes you haven't seen. I have them organized by brand. Enjoy :)


Here's Sally Hansen~ Flash. It's a really pretty bright blue with a nice amount of shimmer in it. I used two coats here, no application problems. :)


Sally Hansen Hards As Nails Xtreme Wear~ Fuchsia Power. This is definitely my go to HOT pink. I absolutely love it, and I have used A LOT of it. I used two coats because it is quite pigmented. You could almost use one coat. No application issues other than my bottle is old so it's running a bit thick.




Sally Hansen Diamond Strength~ Platinum. This is a truly AWESOME color. It flashes green and pink in certain lighting. I wasn't really able to capture that on the camera, SO... ya'll will just have to go get it and try it out! I used three coats. I didn't apply it very well, but that had nothing to do with the polish.


Wet n' Wild~ Lavender Pearlescent. I, HONESTLY, don't understand that name. This just looks pink to me... with a frosted look. Anyway, two coats. No application problems.
Wet n' Wild~ Mauve Frost. This one just looks brown to me. Frosted brown anyway. I guess you can kind of see the mauve in there. Another two-coater. No application problems.

N.Y.C.~ Park Avenue. These are such good polishes. And, the bottle is quite easy to store. This is a slight lavender color. Another one with the frosted effect. I used three coats, no application problems.

N.Y.C.~ Bryant Park. I used two coats. The color is kind of like a light caramel.


Sinful Colors~ Irish Green. I got this close to St. Patrick's Day. Obviously a good color for that holiday. Kind of a jelly. It's a neon as well, and it can dry a bit matte. I used four coats. If you put glitter or something on top you can get away with three coats. No application issues with this one.
Cover Girl Nail Slicks~ Citrus Punch. Such an old color, but still applied very well. I've had this one FOREVER. But, I love this shade of orange. I used three coats.


Cover Girl Boundless Color~ Bronze Beauty. A really sparkly gold. Lovely application. Two coats.

Milani~ Pink Pop. A bubblegum pink but maybe a little darker. Two-three coats works great. Great application, as well.

Hot Topic. No name. I'm calling it Yellow-Orange. It's between those two colors. Horrible application. Never dries... always streaky. I did my best with the pics. You can see how streaky it is. And, it's matte... but I don't have a problem with that. :)

Petites~ Bronze Baby. Really a favorite of mine. I love those dark browns and mushroom type colors. This is super shiny, and so pretty on the nails!! :) Two-three coats for this one as well. Pretty good application. :)

Sally Girl~ Type A. Pink-purple shade. Almost opaque in one coat. I used two anyway. Dries matte!!! YAY!!!! :) Great application.

Sally Girl~ Dumped. Kind of don't understand the names on some of these Sally Girl polishes, but oh well. I guess this is what you would call a metallic turquoise. Two coats. Went on super smooth! Perfect!

Sally Girl~ Mean Streak. Not a fancy color, just a cool navy blue. Love it, and decided to keep my nails this color! :) Two coats works perfectly for this shade. Almost opaque in one coat. :) No application problems.

Hope ya'll enjoyed these!
Last day for the GIVEAWAY! See the sidebar. :)
Talk to ya'll later.

Pea-Body, Surfs Up, In The Pink



Hey ya'll.
I picked up a couple polishes yesterday at Sally's Beauty. Among those polishes, were these three Sally Girl Polishes.
The blue is Surfs Up. The pink is In the Pink. And, the green is Pea-Body. I used two coats for Surfs Up, three coats for In the Pink and you can use three-four coats for Pea Body. I had a bit of a problem with Surfs up.... it was a little gooey. Other than that, these polishes are great! And, the price is great, too!

Enjoy!
And, WELCOME! to my new followers! :)

Sky Blue Pink and Periwinkle


Good Evening. Today I have just a quick post for ya'll. These are the latest that I have picked up. On thumb, middle, and pinky we have Orly~ Sky Blue Pink (I learned about this color on Mary's blog~ Body and Soul. It was very pretty on her and I really wanted one of my own.) And then on index and ring fingers we have Sally Girl~ Periwinkle. Both of these are three coats. I had absolutely no problems with application. They, also, dried fairly quickly. 

What do ya'll think of these shades? I am REALLY liking both of them. :)

Enjoy.
Talk to ya'll later.
