Against my window (Franken)

Hi ladies! Good morning, after noon, night(depending on where you are). I am in kentucky its a very rainy day. Which has made me feel kind of blah.... So, what do I resort to? Frankening. I had my heart set on making a jelly glitter bomb franken ever since I could remember but never made it.... I don't know why because I have like 15 frankens that I've made since then. Ha ha. So, I was bored listening to the rain..and decided to put this rainy day to use. And I give you," Against my window" (taken from the missy elliot song).


She's made up of 9 different polishes, 6 of those are straight glitter which of going to be a straight PITA to take off. Ha ha.

I used:
Sally girl mini- 812029
Hot topic - holographic glitter
Ulta- Piñata-yada-yada
Nyc - Starry silver glitter
Sally Hansen Xtreme wear- Rockstar pink
Wet'n'Wild- Party of 5 glitters
Orly- Love each other
Essie- Turquoise and caicos
Sally Hansen Xtreme wear- Blue me away











What do you think of it?
I love it. I wish it was either a lighter blue or a royal blue but, I'm going to leave it alone for now.

Spanish word of the day:
Lluvia - Rain
Pronounced you-vi-ah


Have an awesome day. :)

I love your franken mani! (Blueberry clouds) Pic heavy

Hello ladies!
Today I will be putting my spin on the ever popular Franken Friday, mine will be called, "I love your franken mani!"
I will be making a franken and doing a mani with it.
How exciting huh? I know! :)
This will be my longest post about frankening because it is my first post and I want to explain everything I did.
For those who don't know what Frankening is, its a mixture of pigments (even eyeshadow), glitters,and different polishes that you mix yourself. Like DIY with polish. It is very fun and very addictive!

My supplies today were:
*Nyc- skin tight denim creme (15 drops)
*Sally hansen Xtreme wear - Blue me away (1teaspoon)
*Love my nails Chrome - Silver bullet (1/4 teaspoon)
*Love my nails- Milky way (1/4 teaspoon)
*Daisy BBs (2)
* Empty polish bottle (I had to pour an old polish out)
* Jar to pour unwanted polish into,I use an old acetone bottle
(Never pour polish down the drain)
* Napkin, paper towel, old shirt. To protect the table you are working at and to protect your clothes.



Polishes that I used



This is what I use to pour out the polish I am not going to use.



While I was getting the rest of my supplies ready.



After adding a little bit of acetone to the bottle and shaking it up. Always remember to clean the brush and neck of the bottle. Mine was clean with only one time. You might have to clean a bottle more, or less depending in how light or lark the original polish was.


All of the polishes poured into the empty polish bottle.
This is where I add my BBs aka ballz. Then, I shake roll shake! And here is the end result.




Blueberry clouds.




Blueberry clouds swatched. I really like how it turned out.

Now, on to the mani.
Supplies:
*Born pretty plate m02
*Finger Paints- Black expressionism
*China Glaze- High def (Tronica)
*Nicole by OPI- Give me the last dance
* My franken- Blueberry clouds

I did a simple taped mani with a stamp going down the seam.
Be sure to press your tape against your skin to make it less sticky. Using the tape without using this method could rip off your polish.




Then, I removed the tape and stamped the flower design on it from image plate m02 using Nicole by OPI give me the last dance.



What do you think?
Thank you for reading!

Spanish daily word:
Viernes = Friday

Now, I'm off to work.

Weekly Challenge: Summer

As most know, I'm in a couple Facebook groups. This post is about the group Face and Friends. Unlike most groups, that have just 1 specific day to do the challenge, we have a whole week. Yes, a whole week! Awesome, I know. :) This will be our first challenge. The theme is Summer. When I think of summer, I think of bathing suits and bright colors, don't ask me why because I don't even wear bathing suits. Being plus size sucks where I live, there are no stores that carry plus size clothing. We don't have a grocery store, Walmart or anything. It sucks. Anyways, for the weekly challenge, I decided to do a pattern of my dream bathing suit, with all of my favorite colors. Lime green, bright pink, neon yellow, bright orange,and neon purple.







The colors I used where:
*Base:Sinful colors-Snow me white
*Black lines:Finger Paints-Black Expressionism
*Funky fingers-Torguga (green)
*Zoya- Charisma(Purple)
*Sinful Colors- Cream Pink
*Sinful Colors- Neon Melon (yellow)
*Orange- A franken that I made. :)




The lines are not perfect so, if you decide to do this, I would use tape to get straight lines. :)

Daily Spanish word:
Verano- Summer

In the summer, I love to go to the park and also go to the pool with my son and boyfriend.

What is your favorite summer activity? Who do you do it with?
