Loreal Miss Pixie + Jordana Lunar Lights

Hello readers!

I recently went through a phase where all of my polish choices were failing and nothing was translating from my head to the nail successfully. This mani is one of those. I have a love/hate relationship with iridescent glitters. They look really pretty in the bottle but I don't like them over just any color. The combo has to be perfect and this one wasn't that to me. This was supposed to be a jelly sandwich but for some reason I wasn't getting any depth even with repeated layers.

The final product isn't terrible, just kind of meh to me. ;) This is Loreal Miss Pixie and Jordana Lunar Lights.


Do you ever have "mani fail" phases?

China Glaze Shell-o + Coverband Sticks n Stones Sandwich

Hello awesome readers!

I have another vacation mani to show you today. So the lighting is kinda funky compared to what I am used to being in a different place. This is Shell-o from this year's China Glaze neon collection. It's a jelly and super pretty! I sandwiched in Sticks n Stones from Ninja Polish and LOVED the result! Rebecca from Rebecca Likes Nails did something similar.



I don't think I will ever get tired of black and white glitter toppers...they make a statement and go with anything!

Loreal Creme de Mint + Hit Polish Mint Chocolate Jelly Sandwich


Hello!

Today's mani is a jelly sandwich using Creme de Mint from the Loreal Miss Candy collection. I love me a good jelly polish! I paired this with Hit Polish's Mint Chocolate glitter topper. A match made in heaven right?!




This makes me want some Andes Mints or mint chip ice cream! Yum!

D&R Apothecary Tricolor Pansy + Zoya Miley Jelly Sandwich

Good morning!

Here is a mani I wore quite a while ago. I was so happy with how it all worked out! I started with a few coats of Zoya Miley, which is a pale lavender jelly, and topped that off with Tricolor Pansy from D&R Apothecary. But I didn't stop there!


Miley and Tricolor Pansy were made for each other to create an awesome jelly sandwich. I think I prefer this look as opposed to without the extra jelly layer. So happy for spring!


Do any of you own Tricolor Pansy? Are you still loving a good jelly sandwich mani?

Zoya Frida + Jordana Celestial Jelly Sandwich

Hi guys!

It's been nothing but really cold and cloudy lately, which is getting in the way of my swatching big time! But luckily I have quite a few nail pics backlogged so I can keep up the 5 day/week posting. :)

When I first saw the Zoya Gloss polishes I wasn't very impressed. But I can't say no to teal so I ended up getting Frida during a promo a while back. Although it takes a lot of coats to get decent coverage, the overall effect is worth it. I layered Jordana Celestial in between my coats of Frida. Love how it turned out!!



Do you guys love jelly sandwiches or are you over them?

OPI Houston We Have a Purple Jelly Sandwich

TGIF guys! Dustin and I are hard at work with You Mix and we hope to catch up soon on all the orders. Don't forget that the last day to get your order in and shipped before we move is Monday!!

My post today features a polish that I have had for about a year now and I am just now wearing it. haha I tried to wear it a few different times but never liked how it looked. As my painting skills have improved, this polish is finally getting some love! This is 2 coats below. I forgot how much I love a jelly finish...so shiny and squishy!


I added a coat of OPI Servin' Up Sparkle and then another thin layer of HWHAP over that.




So besides the OPI sorbets, what are your favorite jellies? I have decided that I need more in my life! Bonus points for someone that knows of a mint or turquoise one! :)
