Awesome Purple Week: Day 3!

TGIF Zombies!

Another week is almost over. Where does the time go?

I had an idea to blog about purples this week because it's the most frequently used color in my makeup arsenal and I wanted to see how many ways I could use the color purple in a week. Lips, eyes, nails, etc. I got some of my friends in on the action to share our love of purple with the world! :D

NOTD! Orly "Galaxy Girl."

Zombies..

Did I hear it right? It's FRIDAY! *throws glitter* *does a touchdown dance* Yusssss!

I wanted to show you all what I have on my nails for the next few days. I was browsing my nail polish and happened upon Galaxy Girl from Orly, which was released with the Cosmic FX collection. I have only used it once since the release and decided to give it another go. I don't know if my tastes are changing, but I didn't like this color when I first used it back a year ago, and now, I LOVE IT!


FLASH

Natural Light

Do you see that blue flash wrapped in the wine base. Not only that, but depending on lighting and angle, there is pink and purple in there too. Gorgeous!

*Zebra Nails with Orly "Razzle"*

Happy ass Saturday Zombies!

I did this mani on Wednesday not with the intention of blogging about it, but once I was done with it, I had to snap a picture to show this off. It came out SO cool.

One of my all time favorite nail polishes is Orly's "Razzle." A gorgeous raspberry base with hot pink shimmer. Alone, this polish is SO gorgeous. But of course, I had to do something a little different and added black stripes with L.A. Colors Art Deco nail art lacquer. I also needed a new topcoat and my CVS was out of Seche Vite (I've never tried it) so I went with Orly's Sec N' Dry. I think it's a great topcoat. It dried really quick and I have no dents. 3 day wear and I did notice some chipping at the tips. But I am a SAHM, so my hands go through a lot.





I hope you're all having a wonderful weekend! I am going to post a life update tomorrow. Lots of big things coming up and some down time for the blog. See you then!
