Shadow look of the Day

I have been so busy with the polishes here that I forgot to share some of the other amazing products in the shop! So I decided to share a Shadow look of the day.

Today I want to share a color combo with you that is a beautiful blend of brown and cream. The colors are easy to mix and match with others and can be worn for either day or night!  This is a great look for when you are on the go. Three steps and I was ready for the day!  

First, I applied my Eye Primer to my entire eye lid.  Then I applied Gypsy in the outer corner and under the eye (also referred to as the waterline).  Finally I added  Mermaids Kiss to the inner corner of my eye and blended into the center.  At this point you can add mascara, but I am generally not a mascara person. 
Now for a less dramatic look you can always add more of the lighter color to the eye lid and lighten up the eyes, and save the darker look for the night out on the town! 

Eye Primer that goes over the lid
(smooth and easy to apply, does not separate) 

Gypsy - A nice medium brown color

Mermaids Kiss- a light gold color with
 a hint of iridescent green

Long Live the Queen

With all the hustle and bustle this week and traveling I have not done a tutorial.  I feel as though I have fallen so far behind I don't know where to start to catch up. But....... I did get a few minutes today to work on some goodies.  

I have created the last in the Holographic series of polishes, The Dark Queen.  It is an intense steel grey color with a hint of blue and holographic shine! 
It is amazing and has the most prismatic rainbow effect in the sunlihgt.  I just can't wait to do a tutorial with this color! 

Long Live the Queen!

Just another Manic Monday

It has been a long weekend .....

With the chance of an even longer Monday.  We have been busy with Farmers Markets, Fair's and more but this week is going to just take it out of me.  I have to take my two girls to an airport today so they can fly off to Alaska, without me!    Granted they can do it on their own, but all the prep has been nuts!  

With all chaos this past week, I did not get a new nail done but I do have a color to share with you. Excalibur, a silvery gold holographic polish is new to our collection.  It has intense shine and sparkle.  I love it.  And of course I love the pattern I painted on it too!  
Even though I am ready, I am sure it will be just another Manic Monday.......

Next week...... a Manicure!
Happy Monday!
