morbid meets bold & beautiful

i decided to do two different polishes on two hands, daring i know. and christmas colors no less! kind of inadvertently, as morbid looked more blueish black in the bottle but on my nails seemed WAY more green (not just in the pictures, but in real life)--although in other nail blog swatches i swear theirs look tealish blue...weird! i used morbid from the new wet n' wild craze collection on my left hand and the red is essie's bold & beautiful from the winter '08 collection. b&b is a deep berry red jelly that is a bit hard to remove from the cuticles, as you can see, but pretty easy to apply as far as jellies go. morbid practically applied itself and i know i will be wearing this guy on more than one occasion, i fell head over heels with it! ga ga gorgeous :) both colors are two coats, no topcoat.

my daddy's the king

i love the princess charming collection from opi, it's just so...charming! (haha i'm so cheesy) this is a pretty pink/peach that is slightly shimmery and just right for work or a date or a wedding or whatever you so choose. i added a little bit of stripy work to my ring finger. lame but the best i could do. my right ring finger got attempted as well but was a major fail cuz it is a different shape (flat on one side because of the way i hold my pen/pencils). i got a lot of looks at this polish, mainly cuz i think people were surprised i wasn't wearing something more bold haha. absolutely no problemos with this guy. GET THIS!

pedicures galore

i finally got a foot bath!! yayay now i can feel pampered and will never have to pay for a pedicure again cuz i can do it myself at home! i got this baby at Ulta cuz it was on sale for $9.99, and i haven't found one for under $25 so i snatched it right up. BONUS it also came with a battery powered manicure set like pros use so it was pretty much a dream come true. it's super fun and i had a great time using it. i got some foot soak at sally beauty for like $3 and i was in bubbly heaven! the manicure set was way easy and fun to use too. i used to be a dental assistant and it is EXACTLY like the instruments we used to use to polish teeth and make/polish temporary crowns and bridges so it was a cinch :D. wayyyyy fun times!

this is a pedicure i did last week, sinful colors cha cha red. super cutie reddish pink. i loved it and it was the first sinful colors polishes i had purchased. easy to find at any walgreens and cheap, $2!second pedi picture, this is one i did yesterday after using the battery powered set on my tootsies, to buff and polish and stuff :) they are much shorter and buffed to remove the ridges. the color is essie sexy divide with nyx purple avenue flaky polish over. it is supposed to look like one of nfu-oh's polishes. oooh i liiike this!
