Snowman Nails :)

Hello! :) Today I have for you a simple snowman design that I saw on youtube and just thought Oh isn't that cute. So I felt like testing it out :)

So the polishes I used was White on White by China Glaze as my base and then on top of that I used Essie's Shine of the times. I absolutely love this Essie polish. One of my favorite things about it is that it's effect is pretty much different on every color.  Last but not least I used my dotting tool and a stripper for the face of the snowmans.

By the way, I tried really hard to get the colorfulness of the Essie Shine of the Times but as many pictures as I took, none of them really did any justice for this beautiful color. If any of you have it, I'm sure you know what I mean. For those of you who don't it's kind of a multicolor glass-shard polish. Really nice.

Anyways here are the pictures.. And once again, they don't do the Essie polish any justice...

Hope you guys liked it and Happy Holidays!

See you next time

Essie E-nuf is E-nuf

Hey guys! It's Theia here. I as well did this mani a while back and just never had time to put it up and then completely forgot about it later.

Anyways this is a new essie color I got that I really like. I never had any trouble with the consistency of any essie colors so yes, this one is still an amazing pick!

I love this color and I hope you will too!

See you later!

Shabby Drab in Stitches

I definitely need some help on naming my posts. Hopefully with practice I'll get better at it. So I'm back with another design and I actually really like it. It's not perfect but I'm still happy with it. I like the colors and the simplicity. This design was very easy to create and fun! I hope you like it:

I used Shabby Drab by Color Club for the dusty periwinkle color. In Stitches by Essie for the mauve-ish color, and What's a Tire Jack by Sephora by OPI for the black.

Party in Bahama

I absolutely love this combo, but I wish that I didn't have to layer the sparkles on so thick to get a nice amount on there. And like all sparkles, removing it was total nightmare. For some reason it did not want to come off. I practically scraped it off- which is probably not good for the nails but I had to do what I had to do. I apologize for the goopy areas but i tried to get an even amount of the glitter throughout the surface of the nail.

I used Bahama Mama by Essie as the base and layered on A Party of 5 Glitters by Wet n' Wild. By the way, if the nail polish looks thick it's because it is! I put a ton of layers just to get the right amount. I would love to wear this look again even with all the thickness, well only if I could find an easier way to take off this glitter. Do you guys know of anything I can do?

Triple Essies :)

OK! So I felt like just a plain old simple design. I used 3 essie colors; Mink Muffs, Chinchilly, and Bahama Mama. I started off with 2 coats of the chocolate -y (mmm) brown, Mink Muffs. Then I made a stripe of Bahama Mama and a stripe of Chinchilly, leaving a stripe of Mink Muffs visible. After it dried a bit, I took my Art Deco polish and made (as straight as I possibly could) a line between each color, put a top coat and voila. As simple as that.


I have to say I absolutely love the solution, the brushes and pretty much everything else about all of these essie colors I used. They apply so smoothly, I don't think I've ever had a real problem with essies.


I apologize, I did my nails when the sun went down so the first 4 pictures are in artificial light

I hoped you enjoyed it :) It was just a little fun simple nail design. Sadly it didn't last long, maybe I'll do it again another time, possible more interesting. Any suggestions? Feel free to leave a comment!! :)
