October 2013 Empties

In my attempt to play catch up this month (I’m losing miserably!) here are my October empties!

Glequins and Half Moons

I have been wanting to use glequins again ever since I used them for this scaly mani back in May. Apologies for the picture quality…that’s what I get for trying to get natural light at 7am on a cloudy day. The lightbox I ordered could not come any sooner! As my base, I used China Glaze – Mingle with Kringle and then using page reinforcement stickers to create my half moons, painted Pandora’s Polish – Fall Day over top. I then individually applied blue glequins from Born Pretty with a wax pencil and applied top coat.

I guess now it’s time to start the holiday nail art?

China Glaze | Dash of Dazzle Holiday Nail Polish Trio with Swatches!

The holidays are here which means that China Glaze has another amazing nail polish collection to excite and dazzle us with! Mingle with Kringle, Bells Will Be Blinging and So Blue Without You are three of the polishes from the Happy Holi-Glaze Collection and although we have seen these colours in some form or another over the seasons, I never get over the tongue-in-cheek nail polish names and of course the glitter polishes that I feel China Glaze does BEST!

Dash of Dazzle is a three piece nail polish set currently being sold by Nail Polish Canada for $15 which basically means you get one of these polishes for free if you were to buy them individually! There is also another set, Touch of Twinkle, if you’re more of a red polish gal!

October 2013 Favourites

So I’m a little late with this post…probably because I didn’t experiment too much with new products prior to my wedding as I didn’t want to break my skin out with the unfamiliar!
