NOTD and Beauty.com hook up

Sunday was my bridal shower and the girls went all out with games and prizes and food, it was fun and I even scored a Gift card to The Body Shop so I just ordered The Almond hand cream with it.. anyone try that?

Anyway here's my nail of the day for Sunday at my shower thru today, I already had on Zoya's Kalista from my last post and I used China Glaze's Millennium to stamp and then a coat of my trusty SV top coat.

 

This design is from the bundle monster plates, BM12 plate.

 

I used the stamping to cover up blanket marks on one of my hands from falling asleep without applying my fast dry top coat .Ha.

I got a box today from beauty.com and was thrilled to open it up and find:

 

A friend got me the Lippman Across the Universe polish from my amazon wishlist and beauty.com sent the Napoleon Perdis Lip Palette to me as a free gift.. man how cool is that, this has to be the coolest free gift with purchase ive ever gotten. Here's a better look.

 
 

The beautiful Across the Universe(wearing it now, just couldn't wait)

 

The NP 15 color Lip Palette, Lip palettes really aren't my thing but I am quite fond of this and the fact it was free makes me love it.. ha ha So all in all today was a happy mail day..

That's all for today, Thanks so much for reading -ilectra

I get by with a lil help from my friends

Just a quick post today, Im so busy workin on my wedding stuff, my soon to be and I are getting married on Oct 10th this year and thats only a month and a half away ahhhhhhhh so much to do..lol

But my maid of honer ,D came by last week to get her nails done again, she went to canada and brought me back Gosh polish so that makes her the coolest..lol Anyway I used one of the polishes she brought me as her main color it's called purple heart and it's got more duo chromes then a Christmas store.. I swear in diff light it looks like any one of like 8 colors. But true to its Purple name it photographed mostly purple.

I stamped her nails with one of my BM(Bundle Monster) plates with China Glaze GR8 polish, a pretty yellow holo.I have GOT to figure out why Im not able to do my friends nails as well as I do my own, im thinking its about angles but D has alot of patience with me and has agreed to let me perfect my on others painting skills on her. :)



She's a hard workin hands on girl so her cuticles and fingers are pretty tore up as you can see but im gonna keep treating um til I bring them back to a soft splendor. We have been growing her nails for my wedding and she started with nano nubs so I think shes coming along really well.
It was seriously hard to capture this mani in pics.. Overall not original but I still really dug it.
Ok this short post is turning long.. so that's all for today
thanks for reading
