I wanted to use more color on my nails, but this is what I ended up with.

NOTD and mini haul

There is so much snow! I want some hot chocolate but I'm too lazy to go downstairs. Today I went food shopping with my mommy, we passed Sally's and Rite Aid so we got some stuff.


Orly: Wandering Vine- Pretty dark green creme, great application but it chipped in one day. Maybe because I have to wash baby bottles all the time.


YUM! I love candy and chocolate. :]


Wet'n Wild polish in Wild Orchid and some lotions that were buy one, get one half off at Rite Aid. The Water Lily is for my mom :P
The Chocolate lotion and the Nina polishes were from Sally's.
Yay, my first Nina polishes, Sailor and Leaf me Alone

Orly Kiss the Bride & OPI Pamplona Purple

Ok, so my husband never did his "cool green and black" design on my nails so I painted them light pink that day. They smudged so I took it off for a few hours and my middle finger on my right hand chipped, lame. Yesterday my mom bought me OPI Pamplona Purple! I wanted that color since the OPI España Collection came out and now it's all mine, yay! Today my mom got me some cute polishes and lip gloss from A.J Wright, the nail polishes were $3.99 for eight cute mini bottles and the lip gloss was $1.99. I love shopping with my mom, my husband always wants to go home the minute we get to any store.


Orly Kiss the Bride- this is a very soft light pink and it only took 2 coats to get it opaque, the lame thing? It takes FOREVER to dry.


OPI Pamplona Purple- A purple cream, this color is awesome! It looks really different indoors though, I love how it looks in the sun. ^

I added a sticker later because I was bored
The guest hand is my baby, Liz lol :]

Favorite nail colors from 2009: Part 1

Here are some of my favorite polish colors that were released in 2009. I don't have that many colors from last year, but I'll show you the ones I do have that I really like :]
Sorry for the crappy lighting, but I wake up when the sun is almost gone, thanks to my baby who stays up til 5am.


Orly- Enchanted Forest [Once Upon a Time collection]
My favorite color is green so of course I love this. Dark green cremes are uber and I only needed 2 coats :]



Essie- Mint Candy Apple [Sweet Time Of The Year collection]
It makes my hands look kinda pink but this color is super cool :D
This colors usually needs 3 coats to even out but I used 2 thick coats.



Zoya- Verushka [Matte Velvet collection]
I don't really like this color matte, I usually put a top coat on all my mattes but it looks nice.
2 coats, and it dries really quick, so that's awesome.



OPI- Done out in Deco [South Beach collection]
My second favorite color is purple, and OMG lilac is such a pretty color tee hee!
Again 2 coats :]


Hopefully I'll post up part 2 tomorrow. Thanks for looking :]
