A Kim-pares to Heaven .*+Glit*tar*ri+*.

The Kim-pares to Heaven .*+Glit*tar*ri+*.

Hey awesome people! Here is my snow flake glitter combo missmatchedmani. A lot of things have been going on in my life but I want you to know I will continue to do my best with my blog. Today though this is a first snow glitter look using Nothing Kim-pares to blue as the Alfa color and Stairway to Heaven as the Beta color. Since Revlon is coming out with their own dupe for Stairway to Heaven it will make this much more affordable. As for the Nothing Kim-pares to blue if you have Essie Bikini so teeny you can go ahead and do your own version. 

I would also like to add if you want to ask me any questions about me or anything please feel free to comment.

A gray tokidoki nail day.

Story: A gray tokidoki nail art day.

I was waiting for a while, for Sephora to finally get the Tokidoki nail polish + nail art stickers. Months went by and nothing so I forgot about it. Till last month I received a call that they were finally getting them in and out on the floor by the 23(May). I put the wrong nail polish on hold though, it wasn't a problem because they didn't run out when I got there so I did get the color I really wanted was Sandy but Latte the color I put on hold was nice too. I only bought one but to my surprise they even had the nail art stickers on sail. So I was pretty cool with that, thinking maybe when I visit my sister I'll paint her nails with these. What made me sad was that there was only one Mozzarella. (The only character I like, probably because I'm a Taurus.) Go fig? Any way, I wanted to try them out little by little to get a feel for the stickers. So here it goes, Tokidoki nail art no.1


List of products:
1. Sally Hansen - Complete treatment continuous treatment growth nail polish (Base coat)
2. OPI - My pointe exactly.
3. Nicole by OPI - Kardashian color in Here Kim's the sun.
4. Tokidoki - Nail art stickers
5. Sally Hansen - Triple strong advanced gel nail fortifier (Top coat)


Polishes/stickers:
 
L-R: Nicole by OPI/ Kim Kardashian - Here Kim's the sun, Tokidoki - Nail art stickers, & OPI- My pointe exactly.

Here is a tip about the stickers:
They are delicate so when you figure out where you want them - make sure. Because sometimes when you set them but notice they're off you could rip them apart trying to re-set them. The backs not clear either to you usually have to eye ball it. What I did was carefully take them off, then used the tip of a toothpick to set them.



Swatches <3 :

Tokidoki - Nail art, Nicole - Here Kim's the sun, OPI - My pointe exactly.


Stay posted for my next blog about Mineral Essence. I recently came across them and fell in love with the colors. Plus a dupe for Mac's Old Gold.



So whether your late in the game, or ahead of the trend. Do it because it makes you happy.

Disco Overboard .*+Glit*tar*ri+*.

Story: Disco Overboard .*+Glit*tar*ri+*.

This was a totally nice Glitter Miss matched Mani. I figured the warm color with the cool ones definitely compliment each other. Especially if they are complementary colors, if you don't know what that means there is a little info below. The dusty rainbow gold polish was a good compliment to the dark sea color. If you never thought of this match before it's best for those cocktail nights. I wouldn't wear this on a date unless it was more of a family dinner and during the winter. But this is just my personal opinion. Hope you like and enjoy the swatches.

List of products:
1. Sally Hansen - Complete treatment continuous treatment growth nail polish (Base coat)
2. Essie - Go Overboard
3. Nicole by OPI - Kardashian color in Disco dolls
4. No top coat for this. But you can use to make polish last longer and have a nice finish.



Looking at the color wheel, yes wheel. There are colors that are on the opposite side of the wheel.These are called complementary colors, because they compliment each other. This could also be the reason why a lot of holidays have two matching colors that don't look the same but compliment each other. Most likely done by advertisement agencies or religious symbolic colors I personally don't know but if I find out I'll let you know.
