Nail Mail!

About a week ago there was a deal going on at Plum District. The deal consisted of purchasing a $50 gift card voucher to Bloom.com for only $25. Bloom.com carries many different beauty products, but my interest was the nail polish.

They carry brands such as CND, Essie, Zoya, OPI, and Sally Hansen just to name a few.

I ordered some of the OPI Nicki Minaj colors and a Zoya.

The packaging was done cute and safe for nail polish!

They wrapped two nail polishes per burrito.

Here are the colors I ordered from L to R:

OPI Fly, Did It On 'Em, Metallic 4 Life, Save Me, Super Bass Shatter, and Zoya Neeka

OPI Fly, Did It On Em, M4L, Save Me, Super Bass Shatter

Zoya Neeka

Did you take advantage of this offer? I think overall this offer was really worth it! I only paid $17.50 out of pocket!


UPDATE!!!!
KGB Deals has the same deal going on right now! $50 gift card to Bloom for $25!!! Only 940 deals left out of 2000!!! This deal ends in 3 days!

New Year, New Things!

This year at Nailed to the T, you can expect bigger and better things coming from my blog! I have added many things to my nail polish addiction lately. 

I recently purchased a lightbox, Bundle Monster stamping plates, Bundle Monster nail art set, Red Angel plates, and many other things, all christmas gifts of course. I am hoping to do more nail art and stamping! I also hope to get a new camera or learn to take better photos.

Here are a few test photos I took

Mermaid Tail Mani

Mermaid Tail Inspired!

Hello everyone! Have you missed me much? Well lately I have added quite a few new things to my nail polish addiction, one being my Bundle Monster plates.

I have always wanted to try a mani that looked like a Mermaid's tail, so I decided to do one today. I had wanted my nails to be a little longer, but I just couldn't wait to try this out.

UPDATE on me :)

Hello all!

I just wanted to let you know that I am working on posts! I am going to start with a Nail Envy week. My nails are nubbins right now and I want to grow them out a bit. I have also bought lightbox which I need to find lights for still. Thank you so much for still following me after my absence! I am also starting school next week, so I should have more posts coming and I should be on a better schedule.

Love you all!

Taylor


Edit: I did nail envy, but forgot to take pictures, and then my nails broke again! FAIL

Happy New Year!!! Thank Blue!

First off, I would love to thank each and every one of my followers! When I started this, I had no idea what would come to follow! I hope you all had a wonderful 2011! I am looking forward to 2012! Anyways onto the nail polish!

Lynnderella Thank Blue!

This is my very first Lynnderella! I had been eyeing this beauty for quite sometime, but was never fast enough to get it on her blog. Thankfully, Llarowe now sells them, even though they also sell out quick!

Thank Blue! is a gorgeous glitter nail polish full of blue and teal! There are large and small hex and square glitters in a milky, sheer blue/teal base. 

I started off with one coat of Color Club Chelsea Girl just to give it a bit of a base to build off of. Then I added Color Club Sexy Siren for some more bling! Finally, a coat of Thank Blue! 

You can also see on my ring finger an addition. I was in Sephora and wanted to try their new blue glitter shatter, well as you can see, no shatter! I was a bit disappointed, but I think I needed to shake the bottle first. It might also be the fact that I had Seche Vite on, and it might not react that well with Seche.

My Very First Deborah Lippmann!!!

Deborah Lippmann

Across the Universe

First of all I would like to thank Carly, at Lacquered Lover, for swapping me for this! I also blame her for making me want more DL's!

Across the Universe is a gorgeous green and blue glitter in a sheer dark blue base.

I chose to layer this over OPI DS Fantasy because I wanted to conserve this beauty and use less coats!

Yes I know i have shrinkage :( The huge chunk missing is also because I didn't let Gelous dry enough.

OPI DS Fantasy

OPI DS Fantasy

Fantasy is a gorgeous deep blue scattered holo.

You can also see some green in it as well, it reminds me of a mermaid or a deep blue ocean!

This one is just simply gorgeous!! I can't get enough of it, unfortunately I used Seche Vite and it shrunk almost instantly.

Ludurana Aurora Boreal Fascinante

Ludurana Fascinante

Fascinante is from the Aurora Boreal collection by Ludurana. Fascinante is a gorgeous multi-chrome nail polish that has great coverage in 2 coats! It also dries super glossy, so no top coat is needed!

The multi-chrome effect is from pink to an orange-brown to gold.

Pink

Pink to Orange-Brown

Gold

I am really loving these multi-chromes!! I think more are going to be added to my wish list immediately!!

The only issue is that they are a bit streaky and can leave bald spots so careful precise application is needed.

Luduranas are available on Llarowe. Llarowe is a website dedicated to selling gorgeous nail polish! You can also "Like" them on Facebook to get updates on stock and sales!!

Luduranas retail for $14 USD and are 8mL a bottle.
