I have tons of NOTDS.../Tengo muchos NOTDS...

I just don't know why I never post them! :( Anyway, there is no excuse. I must try harder! :)

This is my current mani, 2 coats of Essie Sexy Divide, with purple holographic-ish hexagonal glitter which I put on my nails individually! It did take quite a bit of time but it was so worth it! Now I don't even want to take it off. :) [Inspired by the awesome Sammy @ the Nailasaurus]

Pero no se porque nunca los pongo en mi blog! :( La verdad, no hay escusas. Tengo que tratar de dedicar mas tiempo aqui. :)

Esta es la manicura que traigo hoy. Son dos capas de Essie Sexy Divide con un glitter morado que compre hace tiempo en una tienda aqui por mi casa. :

I'm alive!

   Hello my fellow polish addicts! Hope you've all had a wonderful weekend so far. :) Without getting into too much detail...my life got bombarded with one thing after another since the last time I posted. Here is a quick summary of it all: (first and foremost...) NEW JOB!, my sister came to visit from FL, great grandmother passed away, got a gym membership (so lots of working out!), lived life a little and...my laptop DIED. Luckily my computing troubles are fixed for the most part so I hope to resume working on my blog very soon! (Lost some of the work I had done as well. :( ) Enough talking and on to one of my recently purchased (and currently FAVORITE polish evar!)

   This is my first ever half-moon mani using Sinful Colors Black on Black as a base color, with Nfu Oh #52 on top. The little steel balls I bought from Born Pretty Store and rhinestones are from eBay.

   Hola chicas! Espero estén disfrutando su fin de semana! Sin escribirles muchos detalles...me tuve que ir en hiatus porque me an sucedido muchas cosas desde la ultima vez que hice un post. Esas cosas incluyen: nuevo trabajo!, mi hermana me vino a visitar, mi abuelita falleció, me inscribí al gimnasio y mi laptop se arruino. Menos mal que la mayoría de mis problemas se an resuelto. Espero poder resumir mis proyectos y terminarlos luego!

   Esta es mi primera vez haciendo un mani de media luna. Use el esmalte de Sinful Colors Black on Black para la base y uno de mis nuevos esmaltes de Nfu Oh #52 encima.

couldn't resist bringing home the little owl ring. Got it for $1 at HEB lol

 Thanks for stopping by! // Gracias por leerme! :)

A few from when I was gone...

     Good morning lovelies! These are just a few mani's I did while I was away. :)

     Buenos días! Estos son unos manis que me hace unos días atrás.

I really loved how this looked in real life! / Este mani me gusto mucho!

Essie - Jackie Oh, 2 coats/2 capas (which I got for 2 bucks at Ulta!/lo compre por $2 en Ulta), stamps and tips w/ Color Club - Masquerading. LA Colors Art Pens - Black for the designs. Poshe top coat.

EDIT: Tips inspired by this tutorial I found a while back: For Audrey French Tips by TheQueenEileen

China Glaze - Techno Teal, 2 coats/2 capas.

LA Colors Art Pens - Black, Gold Glitter, Blue Glitter. Poshe top coat.

     Now I'm going to finish up the last few episodes of Prison Break and polish my nails for later today! Going out on a special date. :)

     Ahorita voy a terminar los últimos episodios de Prison Break y a pintarme las unas para mas noche porque voy a salir a celebrar un día especial!

Zoya and Glitter!

     A while back I realized I had a few untried Zoya's, Edyta being one of them. I heard so many raves about this color on nail blogs/forums and even I loved how it looked in the bottle when I received it but when I put it on I was majorly disappointed with how it looked on me. It just looked like a hot mess. And to make matters worse...I then decided it would be a good idea to stamp it with with my newly acquired HK plate from the Born Pretty Store and...yeah, I don't even know why I'm posting this:

     Hace unos días atrás me di cuenta que tenia varios esmaltes Zoya que todavía no había usado. El color que decidí ponerme primero fue Edyta. Había leído tantas cosas buenas de este esmalte en los foros y blogs y después de ver Edyta en la botella a mi también me gusto muchísimo! Pero cuando al fin me lo puse no me gusto para nada como se me miraba! El color es precioso pero sentí que mis manos se miraban sucias jajaja Luego para ver de que se mirara mejor decidi usar las estampillas de mi platillo nuevo de HK que me mando Born Pretty Store y la idea salio todo un desastre. Después de tomarme la foto me lo quite todo. :(

Zoya - Edyta, 2 coats/capas w/ SH Insta-Dri (red bottle)

     And here is something a little prettier! (Just couldn't get a decent picture)...

     Pero aqui las dejo con algo un poco mas bonito! (No mas que no me salio bien la foto)...

CG - Liquid Leather, 2 coats/capas with/con CG - Dorothy Who?, 1 coat/capa + SV tc

Thank you for reading! :)

Gracias por leerme!

I'm back!

     Before saying anything at all...I'd like to apologize for the unannounced hiatus! It started out as a busy week, which was followed by a week of being sick...and from there things just got crazy and before I knew it I had been gone for far too long! I'd like to thank my niece for bugging me nearly every day to update my blog...without her encouragement I'd probably be laying down in hopes of getting rid of this migraine I've had for about 3 days now! I'm sad to have lost 2 followers but thanks to the other 5 for sticking around! xoxo

     Antes que nada quiero disculparme por haberme desaparecido por tanto tiempo sin avisarles! Todo empeso con una semana super ocupada, de ahí me enferme...y después ya ni se que tanto paso pero cuando menos acorde ya había pasado mucho tiempo! Quiero darle las gracias a mi sobrina por decirme casi todos los días que actualizara mi blog, sin ella tal vez estuviera acostada todavía esperado que se me vaya la migraña que eh tenido por 3 días! Estoy triste porque en estos días perdí 2 seguidores pero muchas gracias a los otros 5 que se quedaron conmigo! xoxo

Zoya - Mimi, 2 coats/capas. Stamped with: Pure Ice - Outrageous. Sally Hansen Insta-Dri topcoat.

LA Colors - Wired, 1 coat/capa. China Glaze - Dorothy Who? 2 coats/capas. Sally Hansen Insta-Dri topcoat.

Art Deco pens!

     I always love checking out the dollar stores for nail polish and I came across some LA Colors nail polish and art deco pens! :) I picked up a few of each and played around with them and this was the result:

Spanish:

     Siempre me gusta pasar por las dollar stores a ver si tienen esmaltes y esta ultima vez que fui encontre varios esmaltes de LA colors y unos que son de brocha fina para decorar. Me puse a jugar con los esmaltes y este fue el resultado:

L.A. Colors - Fuel, 3 coats w/ Poshe top coat / 3 capas con Poshe top coat

L.A. Colors Art Deco - Intense Pink, Black, Yellow 

     This was my first time ever free-handing a design on my nails...it wasn't too hard but then again my design is a bit craptastic and simple! lol I think I need to free-hand a little bit more, I really had fun doing this!

     Esta fue mi primera vez haciendo esto...me gustaría practicar un poco mas y comprar mas colores y brochas! Me divertí mucho pintándome estos diseños!

Went to Ulta the other day and...

     I ended up with new polishes! :) I walked in looking for something that was sheer and milky in color and I found this polish sitting in the clearance section...and for $2 or $3 I couldn't really leave it behind. (Not to mention I didn't own any Essie polishes prior to this one!)

Spanish:

     Hace unos días fui a Ulta en busca de un esmalte claro como para usar en un french manicure y cuando pase por la sección de cosas rebajadas encontré este esmalte por $2 o $3. A ese precio se me hizo difícil no traérmelo y encima de eso seria mi primer esmalte de Essie.

Essie - Cool Lots, 5 coats w/ Poshe top coat / 5 capas con Poshe top coat

     I loved the jelly-like finish on this polish but that was about it! I don't usually like doing anything more than 2 coats so you can only imagine how I felt about having to do five. On top of that, the color only looked nice in the sunlight, otherwise it seriously wasn't noticeable. Not worth the trouble imo.

     Me gusto mucho como se miraba este color en la luz y que era un esmalte jelly pero al contrario no pierdan su tiempo con este color! Cinco capas para que se mirara mas o menos no vale la pena. :( Con razón lo tenían en oferta! jajaja


Hope you all have a wonderful day! <3
Gracias por leer! Espero que tengan buen dia! <3
