Holiday Mani Wrap Up: Snowflakes


Happy Saturday! 

This is my 500th post! That's quite the milestone, I think! :D

I hope you are all enjoying your weekend. We got snow today! Not a lot, just enough to dust the ground...but it's pretty anyway. :)

I am showing you the last of the holiday manis I wore this past week. I actually wore this one for Christmas Day. Dustin got me Butter London Scuppered as an early present (my first BL!) so that was the base for this mani. Hit Polish Noel went unexpectedly well with Scuppered, so I used that as an accent. Dustin stamped on the snowflakes and the rhinestones just tie it all together so well!



I also wanted to share a mani done by Dustin for my sister! He stamped snowflakes using some Color Club metallics and used Jordana Lunar Lights to add to the effect. I really love how this looks! I love that my husband knows how to make cute nail designs and execute them perfectly. :)



What do you think of these manis?

Jordana Confetti + Savina Purple Confetti

Good evening ladies!

I hope your Monday treated you well...mine went by so quick! I spent the better part of my afternoon swatching, which I find therapuetic. Even more so when I'm watching my guilty pleasure TV shows online! haha

This is a mani that I got from Pinterest. You have probably seen it around if you use Pinterest often. I just loved how absolutely blingy it is! I used Zoya Anaka with 2 coats of Jordana Confetti on top. My accent nail is Savina Purple Confetti. 



This was a quick and easy manicure that was super fun to wear. It smoothed out perfectly with a coat of Gelous which made it even more shiny and sparkly! I'm such a girl...haha

Do you guys love blingy nails as much as I do?

Six New Jordana Glitters Specialty Nail Polish Swatches

Hi readers!

It's been a while since I have had a swatch post for you guys! Today I am showing you the latest polishes from Jordana in their semi new glitter line. After all the indie glitters I have been into lately these seem more simple to look at, but I still think these are worth looking into to add to your collection.

First up is Outer Space. I layered this in one coat over Orly Au Champagne.This is my favorite out of the 6 because it's unexpected. This has medium gold and magenta glitters and fine blue glitter. This formula was great to work with.


Next is Cosmic, which looks to be a dupe or very similar to DL Across the Universe. I'm all for not having to pay $18 for one polish! This is so pretty. All the blues and greens are right up my alley and the navy jelly base is to die for! I believe this is 2 coats.


Red Flash is a mix sized red glitter in a clear base. I used one coat layered over Color Club Wild Orchid. This could be full coverage with some underwear and 2 coats. Really good formula on this as well.


Confetti is one size of magenta glitters. This polish is packed with these suckers! I bet I could have gotten full (or close to it) coverage in about 2 coats. This reminds me of the Jewel FX line from Milani (Jordana and Milani are sister companies and have a few dupes between them). I layered Confetti with Orly Oh Cabana Boy.


Next, is Galaxy. This is is the gunmetal grey version of Red Flash. Here I did 3 coats, but you can tell that it's on the sheer side. To get full coverage you would definitely want some underwear, but you can also do 1 coat just as a topper as well. I like that most of these glitters are versatile that way.


Finally, here is Purple Party. This is predominantly pinky purple glitter with  rainbow glitters throughout. All of these are super fine. This one reminds me a lot of OPI Show It and Glow It which has been a lemming of mine for a while. Although they aren't exact dupes, I can say I don't need the OPI now that I have this one! Yay!



So there you have it! I know you guys have probably seen these before now, but I still wanted to put them out there. These are $2.99 on Jordana's website. Cherry Culture also carries Jordana, but it doesn't look like they have these newer glitters yet. I have also seen Jordana at Kmart, so you have some options!

I would love to know your thoughts on these!
