Manicure Monday

It's almost July which means the 4th is right around the corner. I have a few ideas of some manicures and wanted to share one of them with you. 

I recently bought some mini bottles of Formula X polish by Sephora and realized I had red, white, and blue polishes. I also wanted to use the white glitter that was in the set. 

I've been so excited to try out these polishes and so far I'm impressed. 

I love this white glitter. I thought it would look good over the blue and represent the stars on the flag. 

Check out my Facebook page or my Instagram for more manicures inspired by the 4th of July. 

What are your plans for the 4th?

I love trying new brands of polish and I just found another indie brand. Jessica Jean makes a line of polishes called frostings. They are a white crelly base with different colored and shaped glitters. I decided to try her strawberry frosting polish when she offered free shipping. 

The formula is so great and applied like a dream. I used two coats and a top coat. 

I wore this polish for 4 days and one of those days I was in a pool for most of the day. The polish wore very well with hardly any chipping. I'm very impressed with the quality of the polish and of course I love the color. 

What indie brand do you like?

Milani Baked Blush

Since summer started I've been looking for a peachy, bronze, glowy blush. Every time I went to a makeup store I was looking for something perfect but was disappointed every time. 

The other day I started going through my makeup to see what I had in my collection that I could put into my rotation. I saw a blush I bought back in the fall from Milani. I wasn't a huge fan of it and just set it aside in my drawer. 

I decided to try this again because it looked similar to what I was looking for. 

This blush was exactly what I was looking for. It was perfect. It made my skin look glowy like summer skin should look. 

I haven't used anything else since I picked this back up. The Milani baked blushes are pretty amazing. I find mine at Walmart and they are around $8 each. You should really check them out. You won't be disappointed. 

What is your favorite summer makeup product?

Manicure Monday

Here's a bonus for you guys. I'll be showing you a couple of manicures today because I'm so excited about a collection of polishes. Maybellibe came out with a limited edition collection for the summer called bleached neons. I had the hardest time finding these and I finally found them and haven't stopped wearing them. 

I'm missing two colors but I found one on eBay and the peach one didn't have a good formula so I didn't get it. 

Here are a few manicures I've done so far. 

These are such fun colors and the formula is pretty good on all of these. 

What summer colors are you excited about using?

Manicure Monday

Oops, I'm a day late. I've been struggling with allergies and yesterday was a mess. I took a nap after work and threw off my entire evening. 

Anyway, here is an easy manicure Monday. I used the Sally Hansen Salon Effects with a butterfly pattern on them. I love the white background. 

These are so easy I just love using them.
