China Glaze - Delight

China Glaze - Delight
I just love this color. It is a dusty rose color that has a bit of metallic in it. It's great for any occasion!

Zoya's Kendal

Zoya - Kendal

Zoya - Kendal
Since it is almost spring I thought I would go with a more pastel color and this was one of the only true pastels that I own. I wasn't too impressed with Zoya's Kendal. It might be because I am used to seeing dark colors on my nails and this was a big change. But the color, in different lighting, was a milky lavender or gray. Other then the color the polish itself was nice and creamy.

Every Month is Oktoberfest...

O.P.I - Every Month is Oktoberfest

I bought this polish a few months ago and just now used it. It would be a great fall nail polish if you didn't get that from the name. It has a subtle iridescent feel to it. It turns from a dark blue, purple, burgundy, orange and dark red. Great for fall. I'm a dark polish kind of girl so this really suits me. With this I also used O.P.I RapiDry Top Coat. 

The three polishes I used for this manicure.
O.P.I RapiDry Top Coat, O.P.I Every Month is Oktoberfest, and O.P.I Nail Envy Strengthener

Nail Envy by O.P.I

O.P.I Nail Envy - Nail Strengthener

I am absolutely in love with Nail Envy. I've been using it for about a year now. I will only do a manicure with it. It helps strengthens your nails. I use it as a basecoat or by itself. It's a great product. It costs a little more then your average O.P.I polish but it is completely worth it!!

Swatch Book Tutorial

As I was going through my nail polish I decided to make a Swatch Book. I thought I would let you all see what I came up with.
I created a file in Publisher and created 1''x1.5'' rectangles and put them in columns. I printed them on white cardstock. I three hole punched them and put them in a 1'' binder. I wrote down the name of the nail polish under the rectangle on the corresponding brand of nail polish's page.
 Below are a few photos of how I set it up! 

This way now I have a clear view of what color it is and if you're doing someone else's nails they can flip through a book rather than dumping millions of polish on the ground and sorting through!
Enjoy!
