Lynnderella: Everything's Coming Up Neon Collection

I don't know how in the world I got so lucky, but I won the Lynnderella giveaway from OhThreeOhFour! And these polishes are so incredibly gorgeous, I had to share them with you!!

 

It has been a rough week for me. My little one has had the "Fever Virus" since Sunday and he is just not himself, which in turn means I haven't been myself either. This was a nice and much needed distraction!

I am going to try and get some fun manis up using these beauties soon, but I couldn't wait until then to share! These are my first Lynnderellas and I am in love. I practically swooned when I opened my package. (Ok, so maybe I did swoon a little). What I have noticed about these polishes is that there are so many glitters jammed into a bottle and that is what makes them so interesting to me. I don't personally own any polish quite like these, jam packed with so many colors, shapes and sizes!

Is there any one you would like to see first? Anyone have any pairing ideas?

Thanks for reading!

Spring Fling Challenge Day 5: Watermarble or Gradient

We made it to the last day of the challenge!  I chose to do a subtle glitter gradient for today's theme.  I used a few long time nail polish favorites that are still readily available at Ulta or Walgreens.

I chose Essie Turquoise and Caicos as the base for this manicure.  It's a slightly squishy, jelly finish and this was 3 coats on my nails.  Next I layered a coat of OPI Pirouette My Whistle, which I am still loving as a glitter top coat.  To finish the gradient, I dabbed Essie Set in Stones around the base of my nails in a curved fashion.  What do you think?

Maybe it's just me, but I feel like this sort of is reminiscent of a Tiffany look.  My bottle of Turquoise and Caicos ends up looking almost exactly the same as a Tiffany & Co. bag when it's on my nails.

Right hand! What?!?

I'm sorry this is a slightly picture heavy and not very descriptive post, but I'm writing this later than normal! So, I'll just let you decide what (if any) pictures you like! 

I've had fun with this challenge and a big thanks to Elena and Kelly for coordinating this!  It has been wonderful getting to know the other ladies that participated in this and I looked forward to checking their posts everyday!

Have a great weekend and I hope Spring weather is finally here for you!  Thanks for stopping by!

Spring Fling Challenge Day 4: Bunnies!!

 
 Time for cute overload. I'm just gearing you all up so you are smiling when you see my attempt at nail art. And I'm going to apologize now for the state of my cuticles. I need to do something, just haven't had the time! Without further ado CUTE BUNNIES!!

Are you smiling yet? I hope so! Well on to what you came for, my bunny mani! For this day of the challenge I just kept thinking about those fluffy little bunny tails for some reason, so that is what I decided to try! I give you: Bunny Bums....

For this look I used Essie St. Lucia Lilac as the underwear and then I used my new Lynnderella Sugar Bunny on top. To create the Bunny Bums I used Essie Chinchilly and Sinful Colors Snow Me White. To create the shapes I used my dotting tools. I also used a coat of Seche to smooth the glittered nails a bit. I've never used it before and I've heard it is the quickest drying top coat so I thought I'd give it a try. Patience is not one of my virtues!
