Bridal taupe nails with white roses, rhinestones, and a silver accent nail!

Hello readers,

Sorry it's been a while since my last post. I've had these on for longer than usual and I think they look quite nice. I recently filed my nails down just to have a change, so they're pretty short. I matched my nails to my outfit for a party, the taupe and white roses are from my ivory lace dress, the rhinestones and silver accent nail are from my sandals. The colors I used are Essie Sand Tropez, Sally Hansen Celeb City, and white acrylic paint.



 Last but not least, this is the picture I put on my instagram account (@yazmin_nat). The lace in the background is from my lace dress.
I'm pretty happy with these, what do you think of these nails? Would you wear them? Let me know in the comments below!

Zoya Pixie Dust Miranda swatch!

Hello readers,

Soon I will start the 31 day nail challenge and so for now I'm going to show you some more swatches of new polishes. Zoya Pixie Dust is a collection of textured, matte, sparkle polishes. I only purchased one shade because Zoya is pretty hard to find where I live and they did not have very many colors.

Miranda- A raspberry rose type color in the textured, matte, sparkle formula. I like this polish a lot, but I actually liked it more when it was wet and glossy than when it dried to the textured matte. The color is more rich and the sparkle comes through a lot more. Application was easy, it dried a little longer than average because you have to wait for each coat to fully dry. The only thing I really disliked about this polish was that removing it was such a pain! Other than that it's very unique.


What do you think of this polish? Let me know in the comments below!

OPI Pompeii Purple swatch and review!

Hello readers,

I have recently purchased my first ever OPI polish, and i'm very excited to show you swatches of this stunning shade. The formula of this polish was good, but slightly more sheer than I would've wanted. Two coats were almost perfect, but my nail line was still visible.

Pompeii Purple- An almost hot pink/ fuschia shade with magenta shimmer that leans more towards purple. Although I found this shade very flattering, I definitely do not consider this a purple. Even though the shimmer is a purple- ish magenta, it's not enough to make the shade as a whole purple. I would think of it more of a pink or red than a purple. Nonetheless, I still like this color quite a lot, it dried very fast and glossy and even though pigmentation was on the sheerer side, it was still very easy to work with.

Finger Paints Art You Wondering swatch!

Hello readers,

Sorry I haven't posted in a while, i'm doing swatches again so in the meantime I'd like to show you my swatches of a stunning glitter polish. Art You Wondering is a lightly teal tinted jelly with lots of teal/ emerald green fine glitter. This polish can't be used much as a glitter topper, or over colors that are not similar to the glitter colors so it's better for layering over a green or teal color. I layered two coats of Art You Wondering over one coat of China Glaze Shower Together, and the results were beautifully eye catching. It was difficult for my camera to capture the color perfectly, the polish is leaning more towards a green in person, but not a huge difference. It dries fairly smooth, but I used topcoat anyways. On to the pictures!



 This last picture was taken in direct sunlight, you can see all the lovely glitter here!

Really stunning, any lover of blue/ teal and glitter polishes would definitely want this in their collection, stunning! The removal was a bit difficult because all of the fine glitter but nothing terrible. What do you think of this polish? Let me know in the comments below!

Stunning braided nails/ fishtail nails!

Hello readers,

This is my first ever attempt at braid nails/ fishtail nails, and I quite liked how they came out. I used a silver Essie color, i'm not sure what the name of the polish is though, it came without a sticker. I also used a silver striper, black and white acrylic paint, and then I later added Essie's Aruba Blue for some fun color. I might do a tutorial of this in the future, but right now i'm gonna be working on some 4th of July nail art that I will post soon.

This will be a picture heavy post, but on to the pictures!






I liked this quite a lot, what do you think of this mani? Let me know in the comments below!
