GOT Polish Challenge- Yellow/ Peach

Image
Well this is the last installment of the probationary GOT Polish Challenge. It was so successful that the wonderful Crumpet extended it for several more weeks. I am super excited about this because I love this challenge. Like I said before, it makes me feel not so bad about having so many polishes just chilling around and not being used. I know that they will get a little more love. This weeks challenge was yellow/ peach. Well the ONLY time I use yellow is for STEELERS nails! So.... I am super glad we got the peach option. Yellow just looks like poo on my skin. When I do Steelers nails, it is never straight yellow, so you can't tell how truly bad the yellow looks. Plus black and gold is just the BEST color combo ever!! For this weeks polish, I picked Peach Parfait by Ulta. This is like the perfect peach cream. It looks so fresh and clean!

GOT Polish Challenge- ORANGE

Ok... so here it is!! ORANGE. This was sooo hard for me to photograph, because I think my nails look horrible with orange on them. I am doing it though!! I did dots with it, because it makes me feel better. Everything always looks HOTTER with dots!! I ended up having 3 orangish colored polishes. This is probably the least amount of polishes in one color. Most people are lacking in yellow, but since my football team (The Steelers) have yellow in them, I actually have a ton of yellows. Colors Used- Sinful Colors- Citrine Sinful Colors- Sunset Wet n' Wild- Sunny Side Sunny Side was one of my very first polishes that I bought. I remember needing an orange and that is all I could find. As I mentioned, I do not like oranges so I literally only own these 3 with NONE in my untrieds pile. Stay tuned for next week- it's the skittle!! I can't wait for this! I looove doing skittles as it calms my urge to do many designs in one sitting! What is your favorit...

GOT Polish- Chevron

Sorry!! I missed last week, but I am back!! This week we are doing Chevron!! I wanted sooo bad to buy some decals that would make this easier, but I hung on and free handed this... well almost. I used a little striping tape for straight lines, but whew that was difficult! This week, I told you, I declared as skittles week. Chevron skittles were absolutely fun to do!! I am also really glad that I got to use the rest of my Santee winnings from GorJess and LoveLee. I really liked Santee polishes. All of them that I have used have a beautiful finish as well as a great formula. I have not been disappointed by this brand at all. In addition to nail polish, Santee also has a variety of other beauty products. So, if you have not used a Santee before, it's totally worth the peep! Colors Used: Santee- Autumn Santee- Baby Purple Santee- Modern Purple Anyway, I had a lot of fun with this design. As I mentioned above, I don't have any special tape or anything so I used 2 strips ...

Well... We have done it again!! Well, The Crumpet did it again. I have to credit her for creating all the graphics and ideas for this challenge. So, the gist of this is to use your oldest polish. For example on 1/9 I will be posting a design with my oldest pink I own. It should be one that you already have used. The point is to give love to your older polishes that normally would get used once and then forgot about. All polishes used for the theme day should match that theme. So, for the 9th I am using a couple different pink polishes to make a great pink design. Below, I have posted the rules directly from The Crumpet blog. I hope you all enjoy and play along!! These are the rules from The Crumpet blog THE RULES * the polish you use should be at least one year old * if you haven't been a polishaholic that long, you can use the oldest polishes you have * the polish should be previously used, but if you're stuck, you could free a yearling from Mount Untried (s...
