Daring Digits - ICE



Hello!!! First I want to tell you lovelies about this awesome nail art competition with a Beach Day theme!!  The prizes are outstanding!!  It ends in just a couple days, so hurry to enter in!! You can find the Daring Digits Facebook page HERE!  Here are the details below! Contest ends June 23!

 
Today I have on Daring Digits ICE!  It is a STUNNING flakie!!  I don't have any like this - almost like pastel flakies!  The colors are so gorgeous!  And this is only 1 coat over Sinful Black on Black (1 coat).  No top coat used.
 
 
You can find Daring Digits polishes on Etsy at http://www.etsy.com/shop/DaringDigits.  Ashley is the shop owner and is a sweetheart!  She believes in excellent customer service and all my orders have been sent quickly!  She always strives to give quality products!  I've talked in older posts that she redid a few bottles for me due to the base not suspending the polish!  She contacted me and said she was able to find something that worked better.  I think that says a lot about her and her company!  I'm thrilled to support her and love her awesome creations!!
 
 
 
 
 
 
I hope you all enter in the Daring Digits contest! I am lucky to be including in the judging and cannot wait to see what you lovely ladies come up with! Another judge is my good friend Marisa! Make sure you check out her blog too - she is awesome! - http://marijonails.blogspot.com/.
Have a wonderful day!! (now I wish I was at the beach LOL!!!)
Much Love,
Crystal

Nostalgic Rollin' With The Homies and Zoya Kristen



Hello all!!  Today is just a quick post for you!  I just LOVE the matte glitter look that is becoming quite popular!  Nostalgic just released a new collection with the theme of Clueless!  I have the two other colors to show you soon!  This one is a white and blue glitter named Rollin' With The Homies!

I think you guys have seen me use Zoya Kristen a billion times now - it is seriously my favorite light blue!  It applies like a dream and it is just the perfect shade for me!!  This is 2 coats on it's own.
 
 

I then applied 1 coat of Nostalgic Rollin' with the Homies over top with 1 coat of Wicked Fast top coat by Cult Nails.  You can purchase Nostalgic Nail Lacquer - http://nostalgicnaillacquer.com/.  However, she started a new wish list ordering system and that is how I was able to order these.  For more information, please check her Facebook or blog, http://thesugarcubeblog.blogspot.com/.  Her polishes sell for $9.75 each.  I ordered shortly after she posted the Google doc and received my polishes very quickly!

 
 
I hope you all have a great day!  Yay for Wednesday already! LOL ;-)  Counting the minutes to enjoy relaxing again this weekend!

Much Love,
Crystal

Lynnderella Love, Lace, and Lilacs

 

Hello!! Today I have a trio of colors to show you!!! I think they work together to create an awesome mani!!!

First up is Maybelline Denim Dash, which is 2 coats and 1 coat of Cult Nails Wicked Fast top coat.  The polish actually dries matte, so I went for a glossy approach for the day.  I loved that it matched my Kleenex box - LOL but seriously - what a gorgeous blue!
 

Since I had a bit of tipwear, I went for ManGlaze Matte is Murder, which is a black shimmery matte.  I loved how this looked!!!
 
 
 
 

Then I applied 1 coat of Love, Lace, and Lilacs by Lynnderella over top!  Isn't that amazing!?!  And speaking of Lynnderella, her new collection is being revealed today!!!!!  Pictures should be posted HERE or on Llarowe's Facebook page - HERE.  I am soooo excited to see what Lynn has come up with!!!  L,L and L has small round glitters with squares, hexagons, and bar glitter mixed it.
 
 
 
 
I hope you all enjoyed my mani!! I have fun mixing and matching colors together!!  Lynnderella's always add spice to a mani!!

I hope you all have a great day!
Much Love,
Crystal
