Win All 3 Of Zoyas Newest Magical Pixie Polishes!

As some of you know, We have been sponsored by Zoya Nail Polish for a few months. We received all of their new Summer Collections in May. Since I was out of the country - I havent had a chance to post any of the swatches or discuss much about the products. ANYWAY, since they are Zoya Polishes - they are all perfect. Would you expect anything less??

Its also been a while since we have had a giveaway, So we thought.. "Lets just go ahead and giveaway the whole set of pixie polishes!" Now these polishes are matte glitters and im sure you are thinking UGH! matte always chips... NOT THESE BABES. I swatched each of these colors on one finger, no base coat, and no top coat (obvs, its a matte so I didnt want to make it shiny with a top coat) and I did NOT see any tip wear or chips until the 3rd day. I left it on for 5 days and in that time I only had 1 finger chip, the other two showed a bit of tip wear.. but these ARE AMAZING... hmmm, on second thought maybe I should keep these for myself. HA! Just kidding!

Instructions for the Giveaway and will be listed after the Cut.

Inward Tide - Green River Ordinance

Well, I do believe I have set a record for the longest amount of time ive gone between posts. SORRY! Ive been busy living the rock star life style. Haha literally so many concerts.

Anyway, this mani is from a trip I took to Iowa to see train, Hanson, Adam Lambert, Matt Kearney, neon trees, greenriver ordinance, and Ryan star. It was one of the best trips I have ever taken and wouldn't trade the experience for anything.

The polishes that I used were Zoya Pippa and 2 mislabeled Essie polishes that I picked up from Ross for 1/2price! I used a dotting tool to make 2 diagonal lines of dots. super cute, super easy.

Promise ill start catching up with you guys more often. If you want to check out our crazy concert experiences you can subscribe to our YouTube channel! CLICKKKKKK

Turn It Up - Holiday Parade

Happy Independence Day everyone!! I've been super busy lately as I'm sure the other girls have been as well but I wanted to post a quick mani that I did for the July 4th holiday!

I used Essence Hard To Resist and OPI Alpine Snow as the base. The stripes are OPI An Affair In Red Square with the stars being Zoya Trixie. The glitter is a mix of OPI Getting' Miss Piggy With It and Essie Set In Stone. Hope you like it!

Oh My Goodness - Olly Murrs

Okay, okay. I think I am setting a record for the least amount of posts that ive done..ever haha. it is mainly because ive been so busy doing awesome things! Can't be mad at that..

so after going to Nashville twice in one week for two different concerts, I also went on a road trip with my friends to see our guilty pleasure (one directi haha. It was so intense mainly because I was in eight different states in a matter of eight days. I wouldn't have done it any differently, even if we did spend an entire 48 hours in the car.

I wanted something that wouldn't chip or end up looking crazy with my outfit choices so I used zoya robin (one of my all time favorites) and paired with a color club top coat. I didn't have any chips at all until the last day. I was pleased.

The first picture isn't really color accurate, so I used a candid photo I took at work really quickly.

while we were there, my friends boyfriend actually took a few photos of us. hes reallly good! this is just one that we took! they all turned out well even though we were in 100 degree weather!

What have u done this Summer?

Coming Back For More - Hanson

Hello Everyone! I wanted to do a quick post today & show you my birthday nails!

I'll Find Another You - John Mayer

Gah, sometimes.. life just throws you curveballs... ones you would NEVER expect. Definitely going through something recently.. and my nails.. are taking the brunt of it. i mean... look how short i filed them down! EEEEEK!!!!!!!

I just wanted to so something simple.. and this is about as simple as it gets. i used zoya in savita and phoebe. i really do like the color combo.. i think i could have done something way cooler with these two polishes but.. like i said.. i have been having a rough couple weeks.
This was taken before i did any clean up.... and look at my cuticles! they are basically yelling at me! what is wrong with me.... im not sure this damage is irreversible! hahahah
dont judge all the mess! next post will be better!!! swear. but i DO love these colors together.. dont youuu???
gah.. look at all that matte glory in this picture. is it weird to say that zoya mattes are almost.. not matte enough for me?? that sounds weird. but they still have a sheen to them that makes me want to apply some matte about you over top of them! haha - i know, im weird, but you love me.

Here Comes The Sun - The Beatles

Just a quick post before I leave today! Ive been so busy at my new position that I dont have much time to do my nails... blahhhhhh. BUTTT it is almost my birthday (16 days and counting) and I am sure I will get tonsssss of new polishes for you guys to see.

I started out by painting all of my nails yellow with Pippa.. and then used my speedy top coat to hurry along the process..
After that polish was dry.. I used Robyn to create a half moon on my nail and then to paint my entire ring finger....
FINALLLLLLLYYY after that was dry.. I added a few dots with my handy dandy dotting tool.

............................. Sealed it with my speedy top coat.. and VOILA. a simple summer mani... I thought it screammmeeddd summer time. Y'all like it???? Hope so!

ZOYA PROMO = RECEIVED!!!

I know, I know. You are TOTALLLLLY jealy of these polishes aren't you? It's ok. I would be tooooo.

Like most of you, I took advantage of the latest Zoya Promo (which was probably the best) and ordered one polish and got TWOOO free polishes of my choice. As you can see I got Robyn, Pippa, and Savita.

Robyn is a creamy bright blue color.. also one of my all time favorite colors in the world. I dont really have a whole lot of yellow polish so I thought.. why not.. ill get Pippa.. haha but she seems to be a really intense creamy yellow! Savita.... oh Savita.. how I lusted for you. Savita is a rick purple matte.. SO MUCH YES. I cant even explain.
I just wanna like.. carry the bottles in my purse and take them out and look at them when i need to be happy. -- that sounds totally unhealthy. but I cant help it. I just LOVE Zoya's.

you understand... right? :)

Party Rock Anthem - LMFAO

ahh... this song. I love to hate it. It isnt so bad the first few times.. but after that... I just want to claw my eyes out. HA, but I chose it to title this post because my boyfriends little sister and her bestieeee totally did the dance basically all night last night. entertainnning to say the least lol

ON TO THE POLISH!!!

Im not Sure why I decided to do triangles.. but this is what happened. I did this at work.. so excuse the excess cuticle oil all over the place lol I super duper love caitlin by zoya. I mean just look at all that purpley gray goodness... I mean rarely do I ever just wear plain colors with no accent nail or design... but this color.. I just love. I really could have just worn it. 2 coats for full opacity... and look at the shine BEFORE a top coat of any kind... LOVE it.

I just used dove and caitlin from the zoya promo.. along with the smallest end of one of my dotting tools.... honestly I can make better designs with that than a nail art brush. I feel it gives me more control lol.... sooooo until next time...

xoxo Summer

Zoya 'touch' Review pt1

Hello - its me, Summer. I had the opportunity to review and swatch zoya's 'minka.' I really liked the consistency - very milky and only needed 2 coats to be completely opaque. I can't stress how thick the formula was.... Honestly it could have used some thinner.... But it dried nicely.

im honestly not sure if i love it or not, i think it makes me look like i have mannequin hands.. but maybe if my skin wasnt so cullen like.. and i actually had a tan.. it may look better...

since i knew i wasnt going to have this polish on for long i decided to practice sponging. i used deborah lippmann 'no more drama' and a random gold polish.. i think i need more practice LOL... what do yall think???

Blue (da ba dee) - Eifel 65

uhm, YES i just used that song for the title!!!!!!

hahaha but if only because my nails are the same color as the little guy in the video :)

i used Zoya - Phoebe and Sally Hansen for the silver! i love this color tho, i got a ton of compliments on it. the only bad thing is that because its matte it dries like super fast... making it hard to get it completely smooth. its cute tho.. am i right?

.... looking at this picture u would think that i painted my nails to match this air head wrapper.. but it was a total coincidence! Ashley brought me some candddayyyy and i opened it up and was like - MUST TAKE NAIL PICS!!!!!!!!!!!!!

is it sad that was my first thought?........ no? didnt think so!

last chance for giveaway!!!!!! enter here
