<br />
Oh my god, I am such a bad blogger! I haven't posted anything for awhile, let alone actually post my Aussie Nails Monday manis. Bad Blogger! Bad Blogger!<br />
<br />
I have some pics for my Aussie Nails mani coming up hopefully tomorrow (but don't hold you breath because I really don't want to be responsible for any deaths).<br />
<br />
So for today we have a mani that I did a couple of weeks ago that I have been meaning to post.<br />
<br />
This is Avon 'Sequinned Turquoise'.<br />
I saw a couple of people post about this a few months bad and I just HAD to get it.<br />
So, I placed my first Avon order in years and this little beauty was mine.<br />
<br />
This polish is just gorgeous. In some lights it shows up more green and in others it has a definite blue tone.<br />
<br />
This is 2 coats, with 1 coat of SV. I could have gotten away with just one coat but 2 gives the polish a bit more depth.<br />
<br />

Just a quick post today.<br />
<br />
This is my Aussie Nails Monday 'Weather' mani.<br />
<br />
It was a pretty half-assed attempt but it turned out ok.<br />
<br />
I used Cult Nails 'Time Traveller' as the base, Ulta 3 'Lily White' for the cloud, Essie 'Smooth Sailing' for the tip of the nail an Ulta3 'Honolulu' for the lightning.<br />
<br />
So, here are the pics...<br />

Hi everyone,<br />
Wow! I have actually managed to last for 2 weeks of this challenge. And this one is actually being posted on a Monday (just)!<br />
<br />
The theme for this week is GLITTER!<br />
<br />
This is Lynnderella The Glittering Crowd over Avon Sequinned Turquoise.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">I had a look through my many glitters to find the perfect
one for this challenge. It needed to encapsulate ‘glitter’ perfectly.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 10pt;">

not only is it an awesome glitter bomb but it also has glitter in the name.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Calibri;"></span> </div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;"></span> </div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">The Glittering Crowd has over 100 different kinds of glitter
in it, so it is the perfect ‘glitter’ themed polish.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;"><o:p></o:p></span> </div>
<div style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">Because the theme is glitter, I figured it should be layered over some glitter too and since I was wearing Avon Sequinned Turquoise at the time, I decided I would just stick with that.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<br />
Juat a quick NOTD.<br />
<br />
This is China Glaze Gothic Lolita with China Glaze Fairy Dust on top.<br />
<br />
Gothic Lolita is an awesome purple with a subtle shimmer and Fairy Dust is a sparkly holography micro glitter in a clear base.<br />
<br />
I loved this mani. It was so sparkly and I kept looking at it.<br />

<br />
Yay! 3 posts in 3 days. That's got to be some kind of record for me.<br />
<br />
It's just a quick one today. I just want to show my recent mani.<br />
<br />
This is Cotings, by Gloss n Sparkle.<br />
<br />
It is a gorgeous glitter top coat and I have layered it over one of the Ulta3 Pretty Pastels, Lilac Bloom.<br />
I love this combo. It is so springy!<br />

Sorry I haven't posted for awhile. I have been busy doing 'stuff'.<br />
I am hoping to start posting more often when I get a bit more time (who know when that will be though).<br />
For now I have my 'Aussie Nails Monday' Birthday mani for you.Elissa at Lissa’s Polish Addiction came up with the idea for some Aussie blogger to do a weekly nail challenge.It sounded like a great idea, so I decided to give it a go. I am hoping I am able to actually participate more in this challenge than I did in the 'This is Halloween' nail art challenge.<br />
<br />
And just before we start - I am aware that I am posting this on a Wednesday but I was busy, so backoff, okay :p<br />
<br />
The theme for this week is birthday.<br />
I kind of forgot that I was doing this challenge (I know, what a great way to start).Since I forgot, i thought it would be best to start with something simple and not attempt any nail art.So I decided to just use some polishes that reminded me of 'birthdays'.<br />
<br />
I decided on 2 polishes, 1 that reminded me of kids birthday parties and 1 that reminded me of teenage birthday parties.<br />
<br />
So, without further adieu, the nails...<br />

<br />
Gloss n Sparkle 'Unicorn Droppings' over Ulta3 Lily White on most of the nails.This is the 'kids party' part of the mani. This reminds me of Fairy Bread which seemed to be a staple of birthday parties in my youth. *For those of you not in Australia, Fairy Bread is white bread with margerine and sprinkles (or 100's and 1000's as it is known here) and it is delicious!*<br />
SIDE NOTE - I usually wear Unicorn Droppings by itself (it is opaque after 2-3 coats) but I have used it so much that I am getting quite low and am now afraid of running out. I suppose I will just have to order anothe bottle<br />
<br />
On the feature nail, I have Gloss n Sparkle Passion Pop. This is the 'teenage party' part of the mani. I have some fuzzy memories from my teenage years of drinking passion pop (possibly straight from the bottle)at parties. *I was a classy girl.*<br />
<br />
I LOVE both of these polishes on their own (I am prety sure Gloss n Sparkle is my favourite indie brand ever) but I wasn't a huge fan of the 2 polishes together.<br />
So I didn't wear this as a full mani.<br />
<br />
When I took this off, I did a full mani for the next day. Completely coincidentally, the mani was also sort of birthday themed.<br />
<br />
This is Essence 'Party Princess' over Ulta3 'Black Satin' and OPI 'La-Pazitively Hot'.<br />
<br />

At the time I was so excited to do it and thought I could keep up with all of the posts.<br />
Unfortunately that wasn't the case and I didn't get around to doing most pf it.<br />
<br />
However, there were a couple of halloween manis that I did but didn't post here. So, I decided that 'better late than never' and I would post some of them.<br />
<br />
This is the Zombie themed mani. I had some grand plans for this one but ran out of time. SO I have done something quite simple.<br />
<br />

<br />
Today is part 3 of the This is Halloween challenge.<br />
<br />
Today's theme is Ghosts.<br />
<br />
I had some trouble coming up with ideas for this one an because I am not great at nail art, I struggled to decide what to do.<br />
<br />
I decided to do a Pac Man mani, featuring the Pac Man ghosts.<br />
<br />
So, here are the pics. Enjoy...<br />

<br />
I'm so sorry this is only just going up and that it is a very brief post.<br />
I have been ridiculously busy in the padt few days.<br />
<br />
This is the second challenge and the first time I have ever true Watermarbling. - Well, that's actually a lie. I tried Watermarbling a couple of days ago and it was HORRIBLE!! ~ I will post a blog in the next couple of days about 'what not to do' when watermarbling, complete with some pics of my disasterous first attempt.<br />
<br />
This one however, was pretty good and I am quite happy with it.<br />
<br />
I used OPI Eiffel for this Colour and OPI La-Pazitively Hot.<br />
<br />
Now, to the photos...<br />

<br />
Just a quick post with the mani I am wearing today.<br />
<br />
This is Essence 'A Lovely Secret'<br />
<br />
It is a gorgeous light purple polish. Applies really easily and has lasted pretty well.<br />
I got this last week from Priceline for $1.27! They had all of their essence polishes for 50% off...Yay!!<br />
<br />
The feature nail is a polish by Pahlish. I don't know what this is called as I got it as part of a grab bag and the label was damaged....I think it is called 'slow Faded Love'?!?<br />
It is gorgeous!<br />
I thought is was more sheer and I was going to put I over all of my nails but when I saw how dense it was and the coloured base, I decided it was perfect for a feature nail.<br />

Thanks for coming to check out my blog.<br />
<br />
As I have mentioned before, I have never participated in a nail art challenge of any form. So, when Bec over at <a href="http://lacquerdreams.blogspot.com.au/" target="_blank">Lacquer Dreams</a> suggested a month-long, Halloween themed nail art challenge, I jumped at the chance.<br />
<br />
Introducing..."This is Halloween"<br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Today is October 1st, so I have to show you my "Horror Movie" mani.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
This one was a hard one (as I suspect they will all be) to come up with an idea.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
As I was pressed for time (and because I havent really done any nail art before) I came up with a simple idea.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
The Horror movie I used as inspiration is Scream.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I remember watching the Scream movies when I was younger and finding them genuinely scary, then as I became older, I began to appreciate the movies for their satirical side.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
So, without further adieu...</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I painted most of my nails with Essence "Galactic Black", as I wanted a black with a slight sparkle or texture to it. In the Scream movies, the killer's robe was black with a subtle shimmer to it. I think Galactic Black captured the texture/colour of the robe nicely (although, unfortunately it does not completely show up in these pics). I also used ELF Matte Top Coat to mattify the black nails.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
This is Essence "Galactic Black" swatched on a nail wheel. The one on the left is by itself and the one on the right is withe the ELF Matte Top Coat.</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Once the nails were dry, I got a cheap red nail polish and flicked it in the air. This sent nail polish flying everyone...and some of it even ended up on my nails!</div>

Check out the horrible mess I made!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
The accent nails (ring and thumb *not pictured*) were painted withUlta3 Lily White. i then drew the features on with a black sharpie. I know its not the most conventional nail art too but I havent recieved my nail art pens, dotting tools or nail art brushes yet...so I adapted. I then topped the finger off with the ELF Matte Top Coat.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
This challenge was so much fun and a great way to introduce myself into nail art.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I am really looking forward to the upcoming challenges and I am hoping I will be able to master some more complicated nail art for some of them.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
The next challenge is Water Marbling...Something I have also never done before. From what I have been told, first attempts at this are usually disasterous. So, come back on October 5 for a nail art disaster of apocolyptic proportions!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
And make sure you check out all the other lovely ladies doing this challenge. Bec has organised some sort of Inlinkz thing, so there should be links or something at the bottom of this post.</div>

<br />
Just a quick post to show you the tape Mani I did the other day. <br />
This is using Orly Mysterious Curse and a Spoiled glitter polish that I don't know the name of.<br />
<br />
Both of these lovely polishes I got in a grab bag. From a lovely lady in the US.<br />
<br />
Quick note: I did this is a bit of a hurry last weekend, after I finished work an before I went to the Hanson concert (I know, I'm up with all the cool kids music). So, the clean up job is not the best.<br />
Also, be warned, my cuticles look horrendous.<br />
<br />
Thanks for stopping by. xx<br />

<br />
Just a quick update to let you know that I will be doing an October 'Halloween' challenge.<br />
<br />
Bec from <a href="http://lacquerdreams.blogspot.com.au/2012/09/new-challenge.html" target="_blank">Lacquer Dreams</a> came up with a month long Halloween challenge, consisting of a couple of challenges a week.<br />
<br />
<img class="CSS_LIGHTBOX_SCALED_IMAGE_IMG" height="240" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjfRxm62FMfj3Lh2nrLA4qVQUFwL4NidDNoL7VW-0BS0h5wm1oqZJapQYgekio7GvAOFQxESCQD4d17hBzpuljEXcJLdF1cQrPF6EA26we1us5TSpO0__Z1maU8n6QU8yJLlLLzfOe0WhA/s320/hallwall24.jpg" style="height: 531px; width: 708px;" width="320" /><br />
I am really excited about this challenge.<br />
As i live in Australia, we do not really celebrate Halloween much but it seems like such a fun holiday that we are missing out on.<br />
<br />
This is my first ever nail challenge. I also haven't tried watermarbling yet and haven't done much nail art, so this could be interesting. <br />
<br />
Big thanks to Bec for organising this challenge.<br />
<br />
Be sure to check out her blog <a href="http://lacquerdreams.blogspot.com.au/2012/09/new-challenge.html" target="_blank">Lacquer Dreams</a>.<br />
There are also quite a few oither Aussie bloggers doing this challenge and I will link to them at some point too. <br />
<br />
Thanks for stopping by.<br />
Wish me luck with this challenge...I will need it.

<br />
I recently picked up a couple of Layla Holos, after a lovely girl on Facebook told me where I could find them in Perth...Yay!<br />
<br />
The first one I tried was Ultra Violet and it is GORGEOUS!!<br />
<br />
But one problem I found with it is that after 1 days wear my thumb polish came off in one full piece.<br />
I hadn't been doing dishes or had my hands in warm water (except to wash them) at all that day and I had prepped the mail using the Layla file/buffer.<br />
I'm not sure what caused this...are my nails just rejecting the polish (that better not be the case because it's so pretty an they would be very naughty nails if they did).<br />
<br />
I used Poshe as my topcoat...was that the cause of this drama?i don't know the answers and all I have is more question.<br />
<br />
I will try again and overcome this hurdle because it is just so pretty. <br />
<br />
Bye for now.<br />
<br />

<br />
Just a quick post.<br />
I promise I will actually update with a proper post soon but I have been ridiculously busy lately. <br />
<br />
Gloss n Sparkle (my current favourite indie brand) is having a sale on Etsy at the moment to make way for the new style of bottles they will be introducing soon.<br />
The polishes are $8 each (usually $10) and Angela has added a couple of limited edition polishes ($8.50 each), a gorgeous Halloween polish and a cute glitter bomb.<br />
<br />
I love all of Angela's polished and have bought most of them...I have banned myself from buying any more at the moment because I have spent too much money on them recently.<br />
<br />
I highly recommend Unicorn Droppings!!<br />
<br />
Go an check out her sale at www.glossnsparkle.etsy.com<br />

<br />
I know these have been out for a little while and most of you have probably snapped them up already but here is my two cents on the Face of Australia Sheer Gloss Lip Crayons.<br />
<br />
<table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody>

</tbody></table>
These lip gloss crayons are limited edition, come in a pack of 3 and retail for $14.95 (for the 3).<br />
<br />
They apply really smoothly, give a nice wash of colour and a lovely moisturised feel.<br />
Lips do not feel sticky (like some glosses) and have a nice subtle colour, which can be built up.<br />
<br />
<img class="large" height="317" src="http://www.faceofaustralia.com.au/media/23209/sheer_gloss_crayons.jpg" title="Sheer Gloss Lip Crayons" width="400" /><br />
Similar to the Clinique Chubby Sticks and the Lipstick Queen Crayons, they are almost a cross between lipstick, lip balm and lip gloss.<br />
<br />
Here are my pics of the lip crayons...<br />

<br />
<br />
The colours are all really nice and I am actually a fan of all 3 of them (which is very rare) because I think the sheer buildable nature of the crayon makes them suitable for most skin colours.<br />
<br />
Overall, these are really nice and great value for money. I picked mine up on special for about $11 at Big W...BARGAIN!<br />
They are a limited edition item, so I am not sure how long they will be around for, so get them now!<br />
<br />

1st up is today's polish.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b>This is OPI Flower-To-Flower from the 'Nice Stems' collection.</b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It is a lovely pink polish with a subtle pink shimmer. Bright enough without being neon.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I have also done an accent nail with <b>Deborah Lippman Birthday Party over the Flower-to-Flower.</b></div>

I really like the change in colour you can see in the glitter. There is a definite shift from orange to green, then you also see some red and yellow at times.</div>

This was a fun polish. However, I found that the Kleancolour glitter takes FOREVER to dry and when I added Seche Vite, I had some major shrinkage.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
So, I like the look of it but the application was a little annoying.</div>

This is a really cool glitter top coat. I got so many comments about this polish. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I really wasn't expecting the attention I got from it because, although I like it, it definitely is not my favourite polish nor does it stand out as much as some of my polishes.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
But the overwhelming opinion of the people was that this is an awesome polish.</div>

These facial wipes are great. I have very sensitive skin and find that most facial wipes cause some kind of irritation. The absolutely DO NOT! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I am very excited because, while most of the time I use a cleanser, makeup remover, etc., sometimes I just want to be lazy and use a wipe.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
These work a treat.</div>

There was also a few more items which, for some reason, I have not photographed.<br />
They are:<br />
<a href="http://bellabox.com.au/luk-beautifood-lip-nourish.html" target="_blank">Luk Beautifood Lip Nourish</a><br />
<a href="http://bellabox.com.au/aveeno-daily-moisturising-lotion.html" target="_blank">Aveeno Daily Moisturising Lotion</a><br />
<a href="http://bellabox.com.au/lush-cosmetics-ro-s-argan-body-conditioner.html" target="_blank">LUSH Ros' Argan Body Conditioner </a>- which I absolutely LOVE and, along with the facial wipes, I will definitely by buying in the future.<br />
<br />
Overall, it's not a bad box. I always like to try new products and I am very happy with the couple of things I hvae tried from this box so far (the Lush Body Conditioner and the WotNot Facial Wipes). <br />
<br />
Thats it for now.<br />
Have a lovely day everyone<br />

This is such a cool glitter polish. You don't even really need a solid colour under. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
After 2 to 3 coats, it has complete glitter coverage.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Application is really easy and the dry time is pretty good.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Even though I really like the application and the glitter coverage, i wasn't a huge fan of this polish.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I think the colour wasn't great on me and I thought it looked a bit over the top...even though I usually love any type of glitter polish.</div>
