Loaded Lacquer Skull Duo

Squee! I was so excited to get Loaded Lacquer's Skull Duo! The Duo consists of a "candy" mix with bright pastel glitters called Innocent Until Proven Guilty, and then a "pirate" mix with a richer, more royal, darker mix called Cave of Skulls, and both have tons of skulls, and came with an extra little bag of skulls if you need more for placement. I LOVE both of these polishes! I got plenty of glitter without trying very hard, and Loaded Lacquer's base is thick enough that the skulls lay pretty flat, but after a couple of coats of base coat they were fine.

I used 1 coat of Loaded Lacquer Innocent Until Proven Guilty over 2 coats of Salon Perfect Baby Blues, and 2 coats of Seche Vite Dry Fast Top Coat

And here's 1 coat of Loaded Lacquer Cave of Skulls over 2 coats Obsessive Compulsive Cosmetics Swamp Thing, and 2 coats of Seche Vite Dry Fast Top Coat. I can't even tell you guys how much I love Cave of Skulls, I keep staring at my fingers on this one, and I left both of these mani's on for a few days.

SPONGEBOB!

I really need to catch up on my posts, Mini Me's birthday is just a few days before Christmas, and we have family to our house on Christmas Eve, and Christmas Day, so the past week has been craaaazy! I did a simple, quick Spongebob mani for my daughters 5th birthday, I think it came out really cute! I did have to use like 5 coats of Salon Perfect Yowza Yellow though….

I used 5 coats of Salon Perfect Yowza Yellow, and 2 coats of China Glaze Pelican Gray on my accent nail, a couple of dotting tools with Sephora by OPI It's Totally Karma, and a pink star nail sticker, topped with China Glaze Travel in Colour, and topped it all off with 2 coats of Seche Vite Dry Fast Top Coat.

Happy Holidays From Camp Crystal Lake!

Today is Saturday the 14th, which means yesterday was Friday the 13th! I watched a bit of the first one on HBO while I finished this up, but was too tired to watch all of it. I scooped up a Pretty Serious Crystal Lake in their Cyber Saturday amazing 40% off sale, and this was the perfect time to use it, I had to thin it a bit, but it's really cold so that is to be expected, and as usual it applied perfectly, and I wanted to try out my China Glaze There's Snow One Like You as well, it is a little finicky, and a little tough to deal with, but I got the desired effect, so I can't complain too much…..

I used 1 coat of Pretty Serious Crystal Lake over 2 coats of Salon Perfect Bermuda Baby, and China Glaze There's Snow One Like You for the drips, 2 coats of Seche Vite Dry Fast Top Coat before the drips.

Loaded Lacquer Mintallica!!!

I was so excited when Heather from Loaded Lacquer contacted me to review her new polish Mintallica! Honestly, I would be happy to have any of her polishes, they are PACKED with glitter, no need to fish, you'll get plenty on your brush on your first try. I always think they are so pretty online, and then I get them, and they are always so much prettier in person, and Mintallica was no different! It is a glitter bomb filled with matte mint dots and hex, gunmetal hex and holographic gunmetal in multi sizes, I love it, I can't stop looking at my nails! Application was great, I didn't thin it or mess with it at all! Mintallica will be available tonight at 7pm. central time on Loaded Lacquer's Website, and look for more reviews from me of this brand, they have quickly sky rocketed to the top of my favorites!

I used 1 coat of Loaded Lacquer Mintallica over 2 coats of OPI My Private Jet, with 2 coats of Seche Vite Dry Fast Top Coat.

Shimmer Kisses Midnight Prince

I am totally obsessed with  Shimmer Kisses mini polishes, they are the perfect size, and the perfect price, and she is in Houston, like me, so I get them super fast, and I get to support another small business in my city! I scored this and a couple more in her awesome Black Friday sale! I thinned Midnight prince out, just a bit, and application was great, I put it over Mint Polish Pass the Scone, which is now my new favorite nude!

I used 1 coat of Shimmer Kisses Midnight Prince over 2 coats of Mint Polish Pass the Scone, and 2 coats of Seche Vite Dry Fast Top Coat.

Fat Lacquers Soft Serve

Today I have a new Indie brand called Fat lacquers, this polish is called Soft Serve, and is from the Dollar Menu Collection, I love these polishes, I think the whole idea of this brand is wonderful, there are "nutrition" labels on the back, very clever! I used a few drops of thinner in Soft Serve, the formula was a little thick, but still very sheer, so I used white undies.

I used 1 coat of Fat Lacquers Soft Serve over 2 coats of Salon Perfect Sugar Cube, and for my ice cream accent I used Darling Diva Dreamy, and Mint Polish Pass the Scone, and Buttered Rum, and 1 coat of Seche Vite Dry Fast Top Coat.

I used 1 coat of Loaded Lacquer Vintage Metals over  2 coats of Mint Polish Bleeker St. Babe, and 2 coats of Seche Vite Dry Fast Top Coat.

I used 1 coat of Lynnderella Stay Goodbye over 2 coats of Sephora by OPI Don't Feed the Hand Models, and 2 coats of Seche Vite Dry Fast Top Coat.

A Very Merry Christmas Tree, and Snowflake Covered Presents

I have a few of the Christmas Under the Big Top Collection from Freak Show Polish on the blog today, if you ever read my blog you know that  Freak Show is one of my favorite brands, this was the only Christmas Collection that I bought in it's entirety this year, I did buy Rocky Horror and  Willy Wonka themed winter collections, But this was my favorite Christmas Collection I saw, as usual I thinned them out just a tiny bit, and application and dry time was great, I love all of them. Sorry for my crazy cuticles guys,  one of the reasons I started the blog was to help me stop messing with them, and not mess with the awful hang nails I get, but the cold weather is brutal on them. I got some Sweet Baby by Donna products, that are helping tremendously, but I am still having issues.

I used 1 coat of Freak Show Polish A Very Merry Christmas Tree over 2 coats of OPI Skull & Glossbones, and Nicole by OPI Lights, Kim-era Action! China Glaze Starboard, and a Salon Perfect Striper in Gold Sparkle for the tree, and 2 coats of Seche Vite Dry Fast Top coat.

I used 1 coat of Freak Show Polish Snowflake Covered Christmas Presents over 2 coats of Julep Blakely, and China Glaze  Travel in Color, and To Yacht To Handle and Julep Evelyn for the snowflakes, and 2 coats of Seche Vite Dry Fast Top coat.

Supernatural Lacquer Sugar Plum Fairy

The Christmas Mani's have begun! I'm really excited to bring you guys one of the Christmas Collection from Supernatural Lacquer, I won this one in a flash Giveaway, somebody else guessed her favorite band (Fuel), and won a polish, and I guessed her favorite song by Fuel (Bad Day), and won a polish too! It was super hard to pick, and then super hard to wait to use it while I finished my November challenge! I plan to try it over some other colors, but started here to match what I was wearing to chaperone a bunch of crazy 4 yr. olds in my daughters class at the Children's Museum. *:/ I thinned it out a bit, but as you guys should know by now, I thin all my Indies out a bit. Application was great, and I have to say it was hard to get a pic, that even came close to how pretty it is.

I used 1 coat of Supernatural Lacquer Sugar Plum Fairy over 2 coats of China Glaze Jungle Queen, and 2 coats of Seche Vite Dry Fast Top Coat.

Walking Dead

It's the mid-season finale of Walking Dead tonight, so of course I had to do a mani! I saw Swatchbucklers do a Zombie Cupcake mani, and I've been dying to copycat it, and to use the Polish Addict Walking Dead I got in her awesome sale a couple of weeks ago, and then proceeded to go hog wild when she had her Black Friday sale, because I love Walking Dead! I'll be posting pics of all of my Black Friday Hauls on The Fun With Nails Facebook , and on my Instagram as my stuff comes in. Application was great I used a couple drops of thinner, but I always thin my Indie's out, and the glitter payoff was awesome!!!

I used 1 coat of Polish Addict Walking Dead over OPI Suzi Takes the Wheel, and used those + OPI And This Little Piggy, Sephora by OPI Seeing Pink Elephants, and Salon Perfect Stripers in Green Stem and Pretty in Pink, and 2 coats of Seche Vite Dry Fast Top Coat.
