Spongebob Turns Blue???

No..... Our yellow friend who lives in Bikini Bottom is not turning blue. I just named it that because I sponged my nails with blue. I like the result but it isnt as dramatic as some other possible sponges. Enough with the talking.... lets get swatching!


I used 2 coats of Sally Hansen Blue Me Away for the base. To sponge I used Sally Hansen Pacific Blue, NYC Cashmere Creme (which is not a creme! It is a sheer metalic frost!), and Delias Gold. I also used my Essie Matte About You topcoat. 

I like this manicure but expect another one tomorrow or friday because friday is my birthday!!! 
Also sorry for the bad pictures so far.... I want a new camera for my birthday

What do you think? Love it, hate it? I wanna know!

Happy Polishing,

NOTD - Water Marble Fail.....?


Hey Guys! Today I have a failed water marble for you.... Cut me some slack, it's only my second time! 
I used 2 unnamed Shades of The Season in a red and a black. Don't you just love unnamed nail polishes? At least they are nice and opaque in 1 coat or 2 if you're not careful! I also used an NYC color in Cashmere Creme which is sort of sheer. 
In any event, I think we can all agree that this is a failed mani but I'll try again later :)

So what do you think? Fail or what?
Happy Polishing,
