Nail-Venturous Floam
Yes, it's true. The ever rare Floam is finally in my grasp! Floam is made up of small matte neon yellow, blue, and green glitter. Going to be honest with you, I could make the exact same thing. I'm pretty sure I have the exact same glitters. But anyway, the bottle for this this restock was different. It looks just like the OPI bottles, and the brush is really really weird. It's like OPI, but much wider and all the glitter makes it hard to apply. You have to wait until the last coat dries before you can apply the next coat, and it looks covered enough at 2-3 coats. The outcome is really beautiful though. I don't know what it was but I couldn't stop looking at my nails. They were really pretty. So if you dont already have this, I wouldn't say it's a must buy, but I think it could be worth it.

NOTD: Bug's Life inspired nails
There was a Pixar Disney contest on instagram, so I chose to do “A Bug's Life” nails, unlike the 50 million Nemo entries ;P On my index I have Flick, on my middle, I have Princess Atta, on my ring finger I have Heimlich the beautiful butterfly, on my pinky I have tuck(or roll), and I have the logo on my thumb.

Frost My Tart- Nail Sauce by Feliifel review
Today I came home from L.A. to find a few packages waiting for me. One of which was my order from the lovely Felicia. And the link to her site is here. I absolutely loved the label and the little signature red striping tape across the cap. It also came with some business cards and a magnet.
All in all, I wouldn't say it's a must buy, but it is definitely pretty and would probably great to match that perfect outfit you have for a girls night out or something.
I had heard so much about this polish on Instagram so I thought I would check it out. It has rose colored hexes, fine orange and blue glitter, and even finer purple glitter all suspended in a white milky base. It applied very nicely over my white polish I'd used as a base, although there was a little bit of placement with the hexes because they kept sliding around since the base wasn't very thick. This color doesn't look great on me over white, I guess its just because white doesn't look very good on me, so I'll try it again over pink or something.

Neon Gradient Daisy Nails
I've been doing a lot of gradients recently and they have actually been turning out nicely. So since its summer, I though I'd do a neon gradient. I used three of the year round neons from China Glaze. It went from Purple Panic, to Flip Flop Fantasy, to Sun Worshipper, and it turned out a little something like this.
The top photo is in the shade, and the bottom is in the sun.
Now unfortunately, its very hard to photograph neon colors, so this mani was a lot brighter in person.
As it turned out, there was a floral contest going on on Instagram, so I thought why not do something with these? I added three different colored daisies, white ones(Sally Hansen White Tip), neon yellow ones(China Glaze Yellow Polka Dot Bikini), and pink ones(Essie Cute as a Button). I used Sally Hansen Mellow Yellow for the middle of all of them. I thought they turned out very nicely.

Neutral With A Twist
As one of the nails I had to do for a 30 day challenge I had to do "Neutral with a Twist nails." So I took OPI Samoan Sand as the base and Julep Mila as the glitter gradient.
All you need for this mani is a glitter polish, a plastic bag, and a makeup sponge. First, you put some glitter on a plastic bag. Then you press the sponge down on the glitter to get it on the sponge. After that you sponge the glitter on the tip of your nail. A lot at first, and then as you move up sponge less and less. You'll need to reapply the glitter to the sponge a few times in this process
That's it! I'll post some picture tutorials soon.
