Lacquerhead Polish Review 1/Christmas nails

I thought with this Christmas nail art I'd kill two birds with one stone and do a review too!

The polish is from
 
The polish I'm reviewing today is called "Just be Claus" from the etsy shop owner's collection Christmas 2012 collection.
 
The owner's name is Alischia Taylor and here is the link to her shop. I have bought several of her polishes(and will review them all at a later time) Lacquerhead Polish shop on Etsy
 
I was having a Christmas party and was stuck on what nail art I wanted to do. I remembered I bought this polish a few weeks ago. So I tried it. To get a complete coverage I had to apply atleast 2 coats. It could serve as a cover over a solid color because of the glitters she has in it. But it is white based but I think any color can show through the white if you just put a thin coat of this on.

 This really looks great on nails and I don't know how great this will look picture wise on my nails

I really think this looks better in person. The glitters really are cute.

When taking it off I've been advised to use the foil method(cotton ball soaked in remover and cover in foil and wait a few minutes and take it off and it should all come off).


I really hope you give her polishes a try and she is a really sweet lady to do business with.

I will be doing another Christmas nail art blog tomorrow. So see ya tomorrow!!

Brunch nails

This past weekend I hosted a Pampered Chef party(if you don't know what that is I'll link it at the bottom of this post). Anyway it was a brunch and I had all these breakfast type foods fixed to eat. So I wanted to look a little "festive" so I thought what better way to look festive at a brunch was to paint my nails with different foods, breakfast foods to be specific LOL.

Now I almost didn't do this post cause I'm not thrilled with how they turned out, but like I said about this blog, none of these nail art post will be perfect yet so I would be going against the idea of this blog if I didn't post these pictures.

 On my pinky is a cup of coffee(the white is steam) ring finger is eggs(the only one that came out "perfect"), middle finger is cereal(fruit loops to be specific lol) index finger pancakes(the yellow is a pat of butter LOL and I got a little heavy handed on the black to represent a stack of pancakes), thumb is toast(again the yellow is butter----a little too much butter although Paula Deen would approve :-D). I didn't exactly had the absolute right colors for the toast and pancakes(who would guess I didn't have the right brown as many polishes as I have! haha!!!!!) but I thought two shades of beige might cover it. Oh well I may redo this art again one day when I have the right browns and get better at nail art.
 
So feel free to tell me what you think. What browns would you suggest for all you nail polish addicts out there?
 
By the way look for my Halloween nail art soon. I just thought I'd catch up with these first. Hopefully my Halloween nails will be a little better than these:-D
