The Beauty Buffs: Radiant Orchid

Hey everyone!  Another Beauty Buff's post today!  Pantone Inc announced that the color of the year was to be Radiant Orchid so I looked through my collection and found something I thought was close to "Radiant Orchid"....Sally Hansen Purple Posey.

The result of today's nail art attempt is NOT at all what I envisioned and quite honestly the pics make it appear worse than it really looks.

Check out what the other lovely ladies of The Beauty Buffs came up with:

Julep Natalie

Hey everyone!  Simple, beautiful swatch of Julep Natalie today...

   

Happy Monday <3

Glitter Daze

Hey everyone!  I don't like to wear glitter often because I'm lazy and don't want to go through the removal process but I recently picked up OPI's Glitter Off base coat and wanted to slap glitter on immediately so this is what I chose:  Index and middle finger are China Glaze Fade Into Hue, the light blue is China Glaze Kinetic Candy and the glitter is Sinful Colors Star Dust.

 Happy Friday <3

China Glaze: City Flourish

Hey everyone!  I have three polishes from the China Glaze Spring 2014 City Flourish Collection to share with you today.  Even though I'm only showing you three today, this post is pretty pic heavy so lets get started!  PS - these were all picked out by my 9-year-old daughter :)

First up is Lotus Begin: this is a bright lavender creme and was opaque after two coats. I love it!

Next is Grass is Lime Greener: this is such a fun, bright lime green.

and last is Thistle Do Nicely: this is the brightest and most neon of my trio and it's absolutely gorgeous! 

Happy Tuesday <3

Early Summer

Hey everyone!  I am dying for some hot summer sun so I decided to pull out some fun colors for today's mani.  
Not sure how I feel about the outcome but I love the bright colors!

Happy Sunday <3

Mixed Negative

Hey everyone!  I played around with something new today...negative space.  

Not my finest, but I like the idea and would like to practice a little more with this type of nail art.

  

Happy Friday <3

The Beauty Buffs: Yellow

Hey everyone!  Today's "Beauty Buff" trend is all about YELLOW! I love the way yellow looks with gray so I just had to give it a go on my nails for this theme.

For this look I used Color Club Almost Famous and Sally Hansen Wet Cement.

 

and here's a swatch of Almost Famous on it's own:
