Nails, please!

Lately I have been going on a nail frenzy. I have been obsessing over nail polish colors and how to paint them a certain way. I would prefer to do my own nails and feel proud of myself, then to go get them done. But then again, it's nice to get pampered while getting a manicure! My mom took me to Ulta yesterday and I spent an hour looking at the nail polish colors. I had about seven colors in my bad, and then I realized I would be spending all of my money on nail polish. I looked into the bad and decided I Would have to make it down to two. So I finally settled to two gorgeous colors. One was from OPI and it was from the Pirates of the Caribbean collection. This was on sale for about half of its original price. What a steal! The color was Mermaid's Tears. The color is a deep baby blue that has been tinted with a sad grey. Thus making it appear a lost and sad shade. The next color is a dark ember color from China Glaze. It's called Fireside Glow. The shade has sparkly glitter in it, showing off the "glow" in the name. I was just about to leave because I was just wrapping up looking at the displays. I usually only look at the top display, but this time I looked at the second display underneath this tacky pink display. I froze, because the colors were unbelievable. The brand is called Orly. I don't know if they have done other collections, but this collection I was looking at was unbelievable. The collection is themed as outer space. Each color actually made you think that those were the colors of the milkyway and stars. There were two colors that caught my attention. I didn't get the name of it, but it was this fantastic blue. It was deep in the blue, but as soon as you shook it, the blue became vivid and bright, but held the dark base. As soon as it was shaken, yellow sparks show. It was gorgeous. The next polish was this outstanding deep purple. The polish inside the bottle was striped with a shiny grey in the middle. I shook the bottle and the grey dispersed and a sudden gold appeared scattered throughout the bottle. The grey and the gold stood out in the dark purple, and it basically put me in a galactic trance. Sounds weird, right? Well, needless to say I bought the purple and it is called Rock the World. I was disappointed that the bottle was ten dollars, but hey, I loved it so I bought it! I came home and I painted my toes with the Mermaid's Tears. The color is gorgeous. I wanted to paint my nails, but I had work soon and I didn't want them to chip so soon. So I painted them after work. And I asked my mom if she could French tip my nails with the Fireside Glow. Like the loving mother my mom is, she did and they turned out beautiful. 

 

These are the nail polishes I used for my nails:

Well, I was able to vent about my obsession of nail polish! I'll probably update next week with my new nails ;)
