Hot Pink Cupcake Nails

this week i have a bunch of friends and family that are having birthdays so i decided to do a little nail art in homage to them :). i absolutely ADORE my little cupcakes. The hot pink is one of the polishes i bought last week on my Polish Haulage post{you can click the link to read that post] and i ABSOLUTELY LOVVVVEEE IT! when i swatched it it wasn't the same as it is on my nails i liked the swatch but it just seems soooo much brighter on my nails then on my swatch and for $1.99 you cant beat that! this polish is not like most neons that are sheer and usually have a little shimmer in them and turn matte when they dry. this one has NO shimmer and is SUUUPPEERRRR creamy which is hard to find. Have any of you tried Chelly before and if so do you like it as much as i do? Whats your favorite brand for neons?

Please dont forget follow my blog i always follow back & pass it along to friends. i love to hear from you guys and when i get to enough followers im going to start doing giveaways and other fun stuff :) if you havent seen yet im doing a "Nail Challenge Collab" with Heidi @ diypolish.blogspot.com in the month of May {Summer Nail Challenge Link] so check it out!!! i cant wait to see what you guys are gonna come up with!
Polish used:
{Hot Pink]

Polish Haulage :)


This is kinda sick but  i don't work and have tons of time to do what i please with my days... so with that said i went shopping at a few different Walgreens', the beauty supply store and a few other stores and bought a boat load of stuff to dye my hair because i do believe that second to nail polish i ADORE hair dye... lol i've literally dyed my hair EVERY color in the rainbow this month i went back to a color i said i was never gonna ever do again because the upkeep on it is INSANE its worse then Pink and that fades superrrrr fast...  
(if you want to know how and what i used just contact me)



other then the hair dye i bought about 22 or so new bottles(i forgot to take a picture and swatch like half of them) 9 of them i paid a whopping 65 CENTS for and accidentally bought 2 of a few of the bottles so i was originally going to just GIVE them to my really good friend Heidi@http://diypolish.blogspot.com/ but shes stubborn like a MULE (shes probably reading this and cursing me out..lol i LOVE you) so i ending up swapping my 4 with her 1(Zoya- Lolly) 

Below are the pictures of the 14 that i did take a picture of i actually swatched all 14 of them but it was virtually impossible to see the Electro Candy's and the iridescent pearl they have so i'm just posting the other 7... 

Enjoy and Stay tuned i'm going to have some fun stuff coming soon :)

Orange Creamsicle Nails

The inspiration for these nail is really random i'm on a super strict diet for my surgery and i cant eat ANYTHING... which trust me is as depressing as it sounds!! anyway i was walking down the frozen food isle at Publix and i saw my alllllll time favorite Edy's Orange & cream fruit bars!!!ughhhh they're soo good :) before i started this "LIFE CHANGE" i could eat 2 or 3 in a day. But now i know better so to pay homage to my never to be eaten again bars i did my nails in little oranges and the white french is the cream :) hope you girlys' enjoy and if you have any questions feel free to contact me

Sunny Spring Nails

OK so I'm gonna vent to you guys for a second because its really annoying how rude intentional or unintentional people are!! with that said let the venting begin!!!... Its so funny how many times a day people grab my hands and say "I LOVE your nails" and I'm always asked "owwww who does your nails?" and BY NO MEANS does that bother me i love and accept compliments with genuine appreciation BUTTTTTTTTTTT when I say me I get these crazy weird cross eyed looks like I'm a liar just twits my tweeker!! I usually just say"haha I'm glad you like them" and walk away or hand them a business card because I'm not a big bragger about my accomplishments. i never just jump up and say [in my crazy Puerto Rican voice}"DUHHH I did my nails!!!! I've been doing nails for 8 years, I didn't start yesterday!" even though if you know me it wouldn't surprise you if i said it. I've had extensive training and I've won a bunch of awards for my nail art and gel sculpting! I just don't see the point I LOATHE backhanded compliments and that's exactly what that it .

 But any whozums I've been stuck in my house for about a week or so (i dislocated my hip) and i haven't been able to go outside and see the sun so the nail art was inspired by Sunny Florida and summery spring weather

The polishes used: 
[Pinky red orange}
Wet-n-Wild(MEGAlast) : Heatwave
[Orange}
Wet-n-Wild(Wild Shine): Sunny side up
[Clearish Pink}
Orly: Bare rose*


*I franken my clearish pinks by using a few drops of a brighter red nail polish to make the pink hue a lot pinkier without having to layer on coasts and coasts of it... Its just a personal preference but i LOVE the look of a pink nail bed with a colored/white french instead of a creamy or nothing at all. I'll post 3 pictures below of what I'm talking about, but none of which are my work 
Top to Bottom:
1}. American French
2}. Creamy French
3}. Classic French
