Sink Your Teeth into this Polish It's almost Halloween and if you are still looking for a fun color to wear tomorrow, try one with a great title! You don't have to have fancy nails with little images painted all over them to have conversation piece nails. Sometimes just a fun color title works! This is my friend Kim's pedi job I did a while back, but the color and the title are perfect for the Halloween holiday. This deep purple will go with most dark costumes like witches, vampires, or zombies. But it could also go with fun lighter costumes like pumpkins, cats, or fairies.  And of course when your friends ask you about your nails, you get to tell them all about its fun title! For example, this polish is an OPI color called Want to Bite My Neck? How perfect is that for Halloween? This is a great dark purple color that dried quick and lasted a long time. Ya gotta love OPI :) You can purchase this color (hopefully) at your local OPI dealer or at your ...

BlackHeart Radiance Happy Halloween Week!! I have been waiting ALL YEAR to finally be able to post about this polish for Halloween. I literally got this polish back in December and am now able to finally share it with you! This is Spooktacular! BlackHeart Beauty is the brand for this week's color Magenta  and I thought it would be perfect for a Halloween post due to the great Skeleton skull shaped bottle its in! This color went on OK...it was very streaky on the first coat (which is also alright) but it made me worry that the second coat would look the same. It didn't! The second coat smoothed on out and gave my nails a nice finished look.  I was also pleasantly surprised at how fast this polish dried! The first coat dried almost as quick as my basecoat did. For those of you who have been keeping up with the blog, you know I love some fast drying nail polish! A++ on drying time! If you want to get some of this drop dead polish, head over to your ...

This week's color fits great into the Fall season, fits great into our "Radiant Orchid" theme, and fits great into this season fashion.  This week's color is modeled by my friend Beverley and is a beautiful SpaRitual color described as a "dark purple shimmer", called Days on Wine and Roses.

A Radiant Bride This week my Best Fran ("Friend" for those of you who aren't her and me) is getting married!! I couldn't be more happy for her. Unfortunately as much as I wish, I can't be there for her special day. But she still totally made me feel like the maid of honor. So, check this out!  I have my very own personalized nail polish! AND it goes along with the color of the year. How lucky am I?!  Meg used a feature by Nails Inc. to specially order a bottle of nail polish that is named after me "Amanda - Maid of Honor". And this polish couldn't be more perfect!  Not only is this polish the perfe ct color, it goes on like butter! So smooth and so slick! The brush is also as soft as a baby's butt and it dried in no time flat! Another win for Nails Inc. But enough about my nails! Check out Meg's nails for her wedding.
