Multichrome Skull Nail Stamping

Hey there!  It's pretty late for me to be writing up a blog post but I'm just sitting on the couch soaking my feet, watching Walking Dead and neither task is taking much of my attention.  So why not post this Halloween mani I did a couple days ago?  I was at Superstore (it's a Canadian grocery/everything store) and saw these multichrome plastic cups.  They also came in mug and wine glass form.  I may or may not have bought almost a dozen of them...

Haunted House Halloween Nails

Hey there!  Since my "doing nails just for me" time coincides with Halloween time, you can expect a few more Halloween nails from me over the next few days.  Two nights ago I was finishing up the Netflix show The Haunting of Hill House and realized Bees Knees House On Haunted Chill's name was so close that I should combine the polish with the TV show and Halloween.  Does the fact that the show is called The Haunting of Hill House and that there's a movie called House On Haunted Hill get anybody else confused?  Has the world run out of potential horror titles so now they're just jumbling the words around??

Hit The Bottle Bottoms Up Base/Top Coat and Keepin' It Peel Base Coat Review

Press  Sample

Hey there!  Today I have something a bit different than usual...a look at Hit The Bottle's Bottoms Up and Keepin' It Peel, sent to me by Beautometry to try out.  Bottoms Up in a 2-in-1 base and top coat while Keepin' It Peel is, as you'd guess, Hit The Bottle's water-based peel off base coat.  I've put both of these into regular rotation, for different reasons, over the last couple months.  I have a positive opinion of both though I did learn that I do my nails too late at night and/or I'm too impatient to use non-quick dry top coats now like Bottoms Up.  But I've been using it for other purposes instead of only as top coat so it definitely has a place in my life.  

Candy Corn Halloween Nail Art

Hey there!  For the first time in ages, I'm all caught up on items to review so I've been getting to do my nails just for funsies.  Since it's Halloween next week, I've done a couple Halloween manis already and have at least two more things I've like to wear.  I'm sure some people are probably tired of Halloween nails but, since it's such a good holiday for nail art, I hope you'll bear with me.  I don't think I've done a candy corn mani since 2015 so I thought it was about time for a new one!

UberChic Beauty Art Deco Flair and Moroccan Delight Stamping Plates

Press  Sample

Hey there!  Today I'm pretty much sharing my last few days with you guys.  On Saturday I got the latest UberChic Beauty plates, Art Deco Flair and Moroccan Delight and pretty much haven't stopped trying them out since.  I've done 3 manis with each (plus one big fail).  Usually I try to do two full manis per plate when I'm sent something to review but I clearly like these ones since I did some extra.  I feel like I don't even need to say anything about UberChic's plates since I'm so consistently impressed by their quality.  But I will...if you haven't tried this brand, you should.  The etching is great and the images are gorgeous.  What else do you need?

Esmaltes da Kelly Stamping Polish Swatches

Press  Sample

Hey there!  I hope everybody had a great weekend.  I got to go see the writer/director Kevin Smith do a Q & A last night so I'm still happy from that.  I've seen him a lot (he has a strange love for Edmonton so he's here relatively often) but I always love it.  Anyway, enough about my weekend and onto the nails.  Last week I posted about the Esmaltes da Kelly I Love Paris collection and promised to be back this week with more swatches of her polish.  I received a random assortment of other EdK polishes from Beautometry to try out so it's a bit of a mish mash post.  There's some of the Animals cremes, Nebula Ultra Holos and a couple from the Star Wars collection.  I've previously swatched some Animals and Nebulas so if you'd like to see those as well, you can find that post here.

Nail Crazies Unite - Ghost & Matte

Hey there!  This week's Nail Crazies Unite prompt is Ghost & Matte which is great because I haven't really posted any Halloween nails yet this year.  I do love Halloween but just haven't had time to play.  Now that it's less than 2 weeks from the day though, I should really start wearing Halloween designs to work.  At least I did these guys ahead of time so I could participate in the challenge this week.
