China Glaze - Pelican Gray

Hello there!

Here's the third and last polish I have to share from the China Glaze - Anchors Away collection! I already shared Hey Sailor and Lighthouse. This is Pelican Gray, a really perfect light gray. I have been looking for this exact color for so long, but everything I find is always too purple or too brown. So this is perfect.

However, I think I would rather wait until spring to wear this again. Everything's been so gray here weather-wise, that my nails are just bringing me down! They feel very blah, while I think they'd be awesome in the spring, when things are warming up and flowers are blooming. A nice contrast! I'm going to add a glittery top coat after I finish typing this, to jazz it up. Probably Wet & Wild - Party of Five Glitters. If it looks decent, I'll be sure to snap some pictures to share!

Somehow I got some little black speckles on my nails, which you can see if you enlarge the pictures. I guess they must be tiny air bubbles, as I didn't take a whole lot of time between the second and third coats. Sorry about that!


THANK YOU to all of my followers and commenters!!! For some reason, I still can't figure out how to reply to comments. I've been posting separate comments, and I guess I'll keep doing that for now. So don't feel offended if I don't reply to your comment! Comments make me very happy! :)

Have a great day!

China Glaze - Lighthouse

Hello!!!

Here is another polish from China Glaze's "Anchors Away" collection. Yes, that name still bothers me. Should be "Aweigh," but whatever! I showed you Hey Sailor a few entries ago, and I have one more polish from the collection to show soon.

This is sparkley yellow awesomeness. I see teeny tiny pieces of greenish and orangeish glitter when the light hits this one. I really love it! I did three coats, and it's still slightly sheer. Definite VNL. But I'm really feeling the sheers lately, as you might be able to tell.

I'm super tired, and I don't have much to say! I'll have two Valentine's Day manicures to share soon! One tomorrow, and one Saturday or Sunday. I think the holiday is pretty weird, but I love the colors and the hearts and the love!

Thanks for reading! Please follow/comment/whatever! Do you have plans for Valentine's Day? Share!

China Glaze - Hey Sailor

So yes, I bought this polish based on the name. Come on! It sounds so pin-up-y and fun! And it is. It's a pretty classic red creme. Red. That's the best way to describe it. Standard, gold ol' red. And I love it! It works with my skin tone. It doesn't lean too orange or too blue. It's perfect.

China Glaze just released their "Anchors Away" collection, which has a lot of fun colors in a wide range. To be honest, the name pisses me off because shouldn't it be "Anchors Aweigh?" Whatever.

I bought two other colors from the collection, Pelican Gray and Lighthouse, so look for swatches of those soon!

In other news, last night was my 15-year 8th grade reunion. I went to a very small Catholic school, so all 20 of us were pretty close. Last night there were just six of us, but it was so fun! I took some shots of my friend Julie's nail polish, so I'll share that with you in my next post. They were awesome!!
