Hey guys! I am posting really quickly before I have to head out. For my New Year's Eve 2011 manicure I used Milani Jewel FX in Silver.

I wish you all a very happy new year to come. Be safe and enjoy!

Poinsetta with a Golden Touch



So sorry for the lack of posts lately. I have been busy with family and school stuff.

This mani was done using 3 coats of China Glaze Poinsetta and I stamped it with Revlon Gold Coin.

New (more elaborate lol) posts coming soon, including the entire Zoya Feel collection!

Blue Year's Eve in Tinsel Town


Ok - so if you follow me on Facebook, you know I said I probably wasn't going to be posting up anything until next week. Well, I lied! I ended up finishing up some school work and now I have a little free time and because of some other great school news I received, I AM FEELING PRETTY DAMN HAPPY!

Today's mani is something I have been sporting all week. I can't bring myself to take it off because I love the way this looks! 

Base: China Glaze Tinsel Town (2-3 coats) - The polish applies really well!
Accent: China Glaze Blue Year's Eve with China Glaze Snow Globe layered on top. - I love this combo. The blue and purple reflect from Blue Year's Eve paired with the multi colored glitters of Snow Globe that give off a flakie feel looks so good!






8 more days until my giveaway ends! Click the photo on the right side of this page to be taken to the entry form!

NYX Blues and Greens


Hey guys!

You all are probably wondering, "WOW! Two blog posts in a row from TheVEROblog?!" Well, this is because I am procrastinating. I am supposed to be working on a 10 page paper right now but instead, here I am!

The above picture shows a prize I won from NYX Cosmetics. They hosted a contest on their Facebook page on October 25 in which you had to search the September 2011 issue of Allure Magazine for all the NYX products featured throughout the issue and then email in your answers. The first 50 to email in their correct answers won the items that were in the magazine and I was one of the winners!

Single Eyeshadows: Seafoam Green and Exotic Green- I have never tried NYX eyeshadows before and I have to say that these are very pigmented. I see why everyone loves these so much!

Extreme Shine Eye Liner in Sunrise Blue- This eyeliner applies so smoothly and is long lasting! 

Studio Liquid Liner in Extreme Blue- I love the brush on this eyeliner and the color is amazing! This is also very long lasting.


There was another contest on the NYX Facebook page and I won that too so I can't wait to see what goodies I get sent!

There is still time to enter my 2011 Holiday Giveaway! CLICK HERE to be taken to the entry form. Good Luck!

Holiday Spirit (plus my prize from PolishedComponents.com)


Wait - why isn't there a bottle of nail polish in my hand?! Well..I was waiting for my next class and my nail polish was starting to peel and I had the urge to start peeling the glitter from my pointer finger LOL 

I used Wet n Wild Black Creme as a base. Then I taped off a few patterns and used China Glaze Twinkle Lights (which I won from PolishedComponents.com).



Here is the prize I won from PolishedComponents.com:

From left to right: Holly-Day, Twinkle Lights, Poinsetta

From left to right: Blue Year's Eve, Tinsel Town, Icicle, Snow Globe


Candy Man pendant. Isn't this so cool?
