China Glaze Poolside Collection - Design Nail Arts

YELLOW POLKA DOT BIKINI
Very bright neon yellow. A bit hard to work with, I had to do four coats. I think white polish under would solve the problem. Still nothing one can´t handle and the result is worth it. It really shines!

SUN WORSHIPER

A beautiful neon orange. This will make a great pedi color. It was also a bit harder to work with. But I expected that and again used four coats.

FLIP FLOP FANTASY

I love the name of this bright coral neon. It is a lot on the pink side and I just love that. This applied very nice, three coats.

 POOL PARTY

This stuff is radioactive! I think it is the brightest of the whole collection. A hot pink neon. I will be wearing Pool Party a lot in the summer, I am sure of that. Great application, had no problems. Three coats.

TOWEL BOY TOY

Another great name for a polish. This is the only one with shimmer and I wouldn´t call it a neon, although it dries matte. It a beautiful blue with shimmer. I added a picture in the sun, so that you can see it. My favourite of the collection. Three coats.

KIWI COOL-ADA

Neon green, very bright. This applied very nice, although four coats were needed. I don´t have anything like this and again it will be a great pedi color.

Overall I really like this collection. Some of them were harder to apply, but if you follow the application tips, you are ok :) In this collection, you get all you need for summer. Fun, bright neon colors, that will make you always stand out! Can´t wait to walk on the beach with these beauties!
P.S. too bad there is not a purple neon, but I want a purple polish in every collection, so don´t listen to me :P

Flea Market Finds

I love going to the flea market in my town. I almost always find at least one treasure. Well, treasure to me. You really have to poke around and scope out the booths like a hawk though.

I used to have mini panic attacks every time a vendor spoke to me. I would blush, fidget and dread a hard sell or having to basically tell them "I don't want your crap". Which is what "no thanks" really means at the flea market.

But, after a few visits I learned that simply saying "nail polish?" to each vender can lead to wonderfull results. The first being that they will simply say "no" and leave you alone if they don't have any. The other thing I discovered is that some vendors will actually bring nail polish for you the next weekend if you just ask if they have any! I haven't ever asked a vender that pointed me to polish I hadn't noticed in thier booth. But I have had vendors BRING nail polish from home the next weekend for me to sort through. SCORE!

I have yet to find that heart stopping basket of dusty Essies with SSN nestled inside I always hope for. But I have found some cool stuff.

These 4 are just meh for me. I collect china glaze so I picked them up. I think these were 75 cents each.

Purdy red with gold shimmer. 2 coats

This picture is a little off. It's dustier than it is here in real life. 2 coats.

This is a color I can't find any info on. Like at all. So I snatched it up! 2 coats.

These 3 are just ok. Im not huge into pastels. But, for 25 Cents they ROCK!

I LOVE this red. It glides on smooth and is so glossy. This was one coat but as you can see by the bald patch on my ring finger 2 would have been perfect! This was only 50 freakin cents!

Happy hunting!
