"Can I get a Untz-Untz?!"

Well, my summer is officially over halfway over.

:/

Teachers have to be back in less than a month.

BUT, I'm still in summer mani mode,

so I'm keeping those coming.

Today's mani features the happy glitter from CG's Electric Nights collection,

'Can I get a Untz-Untz?" over CG's 'Boho Blues':

'Can I get a Untz-Untz?" has variously sized lime green, purple, neon green, and neon blue glitters.

I didn't really even notice the purple glitter until I swatched it,

and I'm glad they used all of the the 'cool' colors for this glitter.

I actually really liked it over 'Boho Blues', as well.

As with the other glitters from their summer collection,

formula was GREAT, and I didn't have to fish for any glitters a single time.

:D

That's saying something!

CG's 'Point me to the Party'

I have a lively, happy glitter for ya'll today.

After being at Bonnaroo this past week,

I'm all about some bright/happy/neon/hippie stuff.

Hence, I FINALLY watched 'Point me to the Party' from CG's Electric Nights collection.

I've swatched it over Essie's 'Muchi Muchi':

This reminds me strongly of a neon glitter that Polish Me Silly (previously Lush Lacquer) put out a couple years ago.

Consistency was great, and I actually did NOT have to fish for glitters- which was awesome!

I love it :)

GG's 'More to Explore'

This is the last polish I have from CG's Spring Roadtrip collection,

and it's a nice Summer polish, too. 

Here's 3 coats of 'More to Explore':

'More to Explore' is a bright, peach cream. The formal was 'eh', as was the formula for most of this collection. By the time they released Electric Nights, however, they made up for it.

Regardless, this is a beautiful, happy color that I love wearing on my short, messed up nail :P

CG's Electric Nights Summer collection- 'Treble Maker'

Happy Weekend!

It's a nice, long 3-day weekend for tons of people here in the States.

Lots of sunshine, boating, drinking, eating, and general partying is going on :P

As such, I have a bright, party-isn neon for you today.

I have to apologize in advance for my nails.

I had to pack up my classroom for the summer,

and the boxes/moving were not kind to my nails :/

Anyway, here's 2 coats of 'Treble Maker'.

'Treble Maker' is a neon lime/blue-green that is sure to draw attention.

Formula was good; not streaky or thin like CG's Spring collection.

Opacity was good- it only took 2 coats to reach :)

CG's Electric Nights collection- 'Glow with the Flow'

Ittttttt's almost May!

What?! How is that even possible?

Anyway, May = summer, and summer = neons.

THUS, I have yet another neon from CG's Electric Nights collection :)

Here's 3 coats of 'Glow with the Flow':

Just as it looks, 'Glow with the Flow' is a vivacious neon pink :)

It's probably one of my favorites from the collection, as simple as it is.

Consistency was good, and it took 3 coats- but it was opaque after that.

I love it! :)

CG's Electric Nights collection- 'Home Sweet House Music'

Sorry I've been so MIA lately!

The end of the school year is crazy for teachers.

As such, I've had literally no time to blog, create looks, and I haven't even had my nails painted half the time :(( Sad.

Anyway, I found some time today to quickly swatch a new neon I got form CG's Summer 2015 collection Electric Nights.

I AM SO IN LOVE WITH THIS COLLECTION.

I love neons anyway, but I'm a pretty bug EDM fan & go to a ton of shows,

so this collection is right up my alley ;)

First up is 'Home Sweet House Music'.

Here's 3 coats:

'Home Sweet House Music' is a pretty typical, lovely neon orange.

It reminds me of 'Sun Worshiper' from their 2010 Poolside collection.

The consistency was a little watery,

but overall- I like it :)

CG's Spring 2015 Collection- 'I Brake for Colour'

Well, this is the second to last of my Spring polishes from CG

(it's about time to break out their neon summer collection! :P)

Today's post is just a straight- forward, red/pink creme.

Here's 2 coats of 'I Brake for Colour':

This polish's consistency was a bit better than some of the others from the collection.

It was pretty opaque and not nearly as watery.

Progress!

Stay tuned for CG's BAD A neon collection in the next week or so!

China Glaze Spring 2015 Roadtrip collection- 'Boho Blues'

Happy Tuesday!

It's in the 70's all week here this week,

and aside from my seasonal allergies-

it makes me so ready for Spring! :)

Here's another polish from CG's 2015 Spring Roadtrip collection,

'Boho Blues'!

(3 coats)

'Boho Blues' is really more of a periwinkle color than a blue.

It reminds me slightly of Essie's 'Bikini So Teeny' from a year or two ago.

It's lovely!

It's not my favorite color for my skin tone,

but it's a solid polish.

China Glaze Spring 2015 Roadtrip Collection- 'Wanderlust'

Happy Friday!

I'm going to see Flux Pavilion tonight,

and I'm beyond stoked.

It's been a couple years since I've seen him,

and I need a night out :P

Anyway,

I have another lovely polish from CG's new Spring Collection.

Here's 2 coats of 'Wanderlust':

'Wanderlust' is a pastel lilac creme with slight light orange shimmer

(you can see this very faintly in the first & second picture).

It actually reminds me faintly of 'In a Lily Bit' from their Spring collection last year,

but I like it all the same! :)

China Glaze Spring 2015 Road Trip Collection- 'Pack Lightly'

Spring is officially here in Tennessee, finally!

To celebrate, I'm breaking out the polishes I bought from China Glaze's new Spring collection.

The first of many is 'Pack Lightly'.

Here's 3 coats:

'Pack Lightly' is a pastel, orange cream colored creme polish.
It was a bit more watery than I would have liked,
but the color and finished product is lovely.
It reminds me faintly of the pastel orange Sinful Colors put out for their spring collection 2 years ago.

From the Vault- 'Pelican Grey' & 'Snowglobe'

Well even though it's in the freaking 60's in January here in TN,

I'm going to at least have some snow of my nails!

Today's post are definitely form the vault.

They're two polishes from at least a couple years ago:

one from China Glaze & one from Kawaii Nail Lacquer :)

Here's the combo:

This is 2 coats of 'Pelican Grey' and 2 coats of 'Snowglobe' :)

Festive and sparkly!

Glistening Snowcicles ;P

Hello, all!

It has been freezing cold and rainy here.

I can only hope that means snow (and yikes, ice!) and a subsequent snow day tomorrow!

We shall see.

In the meantime, I have a gorgeous holo, wintery mani for you today.

Here's 1 coat of China Glaze's 'Icicle' and 2 coats of CG's 'Glistening Snow'.

This combo was just mesmerizing to me.

Nothing fancy, but certainly gorgeous! :)

Candy Lacquer 'Candy Cane Fiesta'

I posted the other day about my new christmas polishes from Candy Lacquer.

Here's the first of the two of them,

'Candy Cane Fiesta'!

*pictured here over 2 coats China Glaze's 'Merry Berry'*

This polish is adorable and packed with almost every kind of glitter there is.

Hexes (of all sizes and colors), circles, squares, rectangles, snowflakes, hearts, flowers... and yes, candy canes!

I almost wish this polish had a different name, even though it's cute.

Because of the name, I was expecting to find several little candy cane glitters.

Instead, I seriously found, maybe, 3.

I ended up having to go back to the little baggie of extra glitter that came with this polish to find a candy cane.

I'll add the bag to the bottle and have plenty for next time, though!

This polish had a great consistency and went on as a beautiful top coat over this CG.

Definitely one of my new, favorite Christmas manis!

:)

What do you guys think?

Grass is Lime Greener

I have my last polish from China Glaze's City Flourish collection to show you today.

It's easily my second favorite of the bunch.

This bad boy is essentially a neon and SCREAMS awesomeness.

Here's 3 coats of 'Grass is Lime Greener'.

'Grass is Lime Greener' is a (shockingly!) neon lime green creme.
IT'S AMAZEBALLS.
Totally perfect for the coming summer.
I can already tell I'll be wearing it to every show I got to :)
