Happy Easter Round Up

**This Post May Contain Press Samples** This is going to be short and sweet because today, I am with my family and we are doing all sorts of family things... You do know the Easter Bunny came to visit today... We traveled so we will be doing a quick brunch and then traveling back to the west side of PA. It missed us!! Today, I am just going to share some of my favorite pastels and some past Easter Collections in honor of Easter.    ellagee- White Lace Promises Collection  I loved this collection. It is so springy and fresh. This was released last February as part of a bridal collection. I think this can double as a great Spring collection so it goes on the list.    Lacquer by Lissa Spring 2014 Collection  Ok... How can I not put this collection on here? I mean there is a polish named Bunny Love and Bunny decals... Hello!! Lacquer by Lissa still has decals and there are sooo many cute ones! She is also a a local Pitts...

For my last 12 Days of Christmas Challenge, which I can proudly say I completed ALL the WAY!!! and almost on time everyday, I did a Santa. I was just going to do this head and be done, but I wanted to show you all of Santa.  I made his hat, coat, head, and pants. Of course, you know I had to add a little sparkle to the fluffy parts. What is a nail polish Santa without a little glitter??  I hope you all enjoyed all of my tutorials and holiday manis as much as I did. I really had fun doing this and Ihope to hop on another one during Valentine's Day!! Colors Used: Sinful Colors- Ruby Ruby Sinful Colors- Snow Me White Wet n Wild- Ebony Hates Chris KBShimmer- I Only Have Ice for You Cirque- Ica Valley

I really enjoyed it and hope to do this again. I think that people like seeing tutorials because I am welcoming you to come in a copy my manis!!

12 Days of Christmas Candy Cane Tutorial

Image
So, here is yet another easy Christmas tutorial to do. It's my candy cane tutorial. The fun thing about this is there are sooooo many patterns you can do for candy canes. There are rainbow candy canes, candy canes with only thick lines, small candy canes, you get my point. So as long as there are some color and lines, you can make candy canes. Polish Used: Sinful Colors- Snow Me White Sinful Colors- Ruby Ruby KBShimmer- I Only Have Ice for You Step 1: Paint your nails with your base color. I chose white because I am going for the traditional candy cane color.   Step 2: *Optional* I added a little silver holo glitter just for the fancy smancy of it. This is not necessary, but just a little addition to make it ColorMeSoCrazy Step 3: I added striping tape in the pattern that I wanted. Don't forget that where you do not put the tape, your top color will show. For this pattern, I will decided to do some thick and skinny red stripes as well as a thick and ski...

ellagee Magical Winter Holidays Sneak Peek

Image
* Product(s) in this post company or Public Relations Representative for an honest review. Please see disclosure statement page for further information . See love statement below regarding  Holiday  Posts!! My first Holiday review is from the Magical Winter Holidays Collection of ellagee . I actually ordered three other polishes from this collection. I thought they would be great presents. Stay tuned for those swatches!! Anyway, this polish is called Festival of Lights  and it is packed with glitter. It has a variety of blue shades and glitter shapes to make up a nice topper. The base has a really sheer color to it, but I still put it on top of some undies to make the glitter really pop. I used a navy blue color- Sinful Colors  Cold Leather. This was a great combo and really matched!! You can find this and many other colors in the ellagee shop here . You can also check out her Facebook page here . I asked you, my lovely readers, if ...
