NOTD: Zoya Madison

Had to post this beauty. I had worn this polish once in 1 coat to add a soft pink to my french manicure. IAs many of you may not know I am a mommy of 4 little chickabooms. 3 boys and my youngest a girl!!

Her name is Madison! So, many months ago there was a Zoya BOGO and I HAD to pick up Madison for my collection!

Here is this pale and sheer baby pink cream in 3 coats.

SUN


SHADE

There is still some VNL even after 3 coats, but this is a unique polish to me and I would change it for the world. Thank you Zoya for making such a sweet polish with the name Madison!!



I had many compliments on this polish by my clients at Nail Technician school. One actually said that she wasn't use to seeing me wearing such a soft color on EVERY nail.. I totally LOL'd. I usually wear wild colors and have an accent nail!!


AND.......Why not show you a picture of my sweet baby girl Madison and myself....





What do you think of Zoya Madison??? Do you occasionally wear semi sheer polishes?

Enjoy!

LA Splash Cosmetics


Happy Friday my lovelies. It's been a very busy week over here and I do not see it slowing down any. I hope you all had a great week and get to rejuvenate yourselves this weekend. Today I have some pretties to show off from LA Splash Cosmetics!!!

First up is Chromed:

Chromed is a Glitter Polish in a clear base. It has gray colored glitter, both fine and slightly larger.  Chromed also has some halo glitters! At first look the bottle is dark, but once applied and it hits the light it takes on  a silver/gold look.  





INDOOR


This is 2 coats with LA Splash Top Coat. Chrome is so sparkly and gorgeous.

 OUTDOOR


The halo glitter also gives a beautiful sparkle between the darker glitter!!



LA Splash Top Coat: This was fast drying and gave a glossy finish!


Loose Nail Art Glitter


Can be used to add an amazing sparkle and bling to your existing polish or worn in a fun jazzed up french.


Metalmania and Glitz & Gleam

Metalmania: 
Tiny silver circle holographic glitter, with even tinier silver holographic glitter. BEAUTIFUL!!


Glitz & Gleam: 
Mostly Silver and Holographic HEX shaped glitter. Also has a small amount of hex glitter in green, purple, yellow and orange. Glitz & Gleam also has tiny silver circular glitter as well. Makes for a super sparkly and gleaming nail!! Perfect name!

For best results, first apply the black volume mascara, then finish with the black lash lengthening fiber mascara for those Double Trouble lashes.


For the record.....I LOVE each and every one of the Lashem products. They are super easy to use and much less costly than going to a professional for the results I was able to achieve at home!!
