Fauxnad at Ross? Urgent Update!

When I saw it I clutched it to my chest and Ran! It was only $14.99 for the kit with 5 plates (29 designs), 6 polishes, and a top coat. Has anybody seen this brand or know anything about it?

UPDATE: We shall now call this Failnad- holy smeartastic batman! First it wouldn't pick up enough polish, then it would smear without the kind that came with it. Argh! Now I've ruined my mani :( 1 Bling for a good idea and price, but bad execution.

I also found the Color Club "Rebel Debutante" collection! Reviews to come!

Parade of Wearin O' the Green Part 3 (Candy is Dandy but Liquor is Quicker)

Well, here is my Patty's Day Mani. Dream Catcher topped with Cala 3-D nail art and one coat Poshe'. DH likes it now! Yay! The Creme de Menthe is going in the chocolate mint pie after the corned beef and cabbage. And this year we're doing green beer. And in case there are any Leprechauns lurking around, ye'll not get me lucky charms ye wee bastard! Happy St. Patrick's Day! 5 Blings

Happy Valentines Day

Hope you had a good one, Mine was great! DH and I hit a local place for some Halibut and chips and it was to die for! Soooo good! My polish was looking a little sad so I spiced it up with a topcoat of SinfulColors Glass Pink. I really like this, It's so delicate and pink and very sheer. I just love the shimmer, It looks like tiny glass flecks. It's just a really cool topcoat! 4.5 Blings

The Perfume I wore was YSL - Baby Doll. This is a grapefruit and rose scent that if I had to pick one word to describe it " Happy " would be it! 4 Blings

My red cashmere sweater is a much deeper red, a blue red, not tomato. And my necklace is a pretty gold heart that my DH gave me for Christmas a few years ago. Well that was my day! :)

Cute Valentine's Day French Mani

This is two coat of Sally Hansen - Pardon My French. It is semi sheer and pale pink, love the color! But,,,,, it was a pain in the *ss to put on! Streaky, thick but runny, super slow to dry. 2.5 Blings

Anywho, I put some cute decals on, slapped on a coat of Poshe', tapped my heels three times and said there's no mani like mine, there's no mani like mine. And there you have it!

LoveMyNails "Plum Shimmer" with Hearts

First off, the color is not plum, though it is a beautiful pink and silver shimmer. It went on very easy, UNFORTUNATELY it comes off easy too! I can't get it to stop smudging, even after Seche Vite or Poshe top coats! For someone who works with horses and is very active, this is a deal breaker. I love the color, but it's virtually unwearable. Polish from hell gets 1.5 blings (.5 for good color).

The hearts are so cute and they look like rhinestones! Though they are also a bit hard to wear since they are hard and don't sit too well on the nails, a few top coats does the trick. 3 Blings

UPDATE 2/14/10: This is also a real pain to take off :(

Reverse French

This is my reverse french mani. Sorry if it's a little worn, this is day 5. This took a long time. I'm sure I made it harder than I needed to but I liked the way it turned out. First coat was Barielle Nail Rebuilding Protein. 4.5 Blings

Second coat was OPI - Nail Envy Matte. 5 Blings!

For the base I used 2 coats of OPI - Hopelessly In Love. 4 Blings

The tips were 2 coats of OPI - Lincoln Park After Dark. 4.5 Blings

I used some cute nail stickers I got at Sally's and then It was 2 coats of Seche Vite (4 Blings). The one thing I was bummed about was that some of the silver on the flowers smeared into the dark tips and I was going for a cream with no frost look. :( O well. I really liked it and it got a thumbs up from DH. But..... it was 6:00 am when I dragged my sorry self to bed. But with one more topcoat two days latter I got a week of wear with no chips and almost no tip wear! Not bad for six hours.;)
