Blackheart Beauty "Daydream Scream" Review

Hello everyone! My first review of the month is for a polish I got for Christmas from one of my best friends. This polish, as you can see from the title, is by Blackheart Beauty in the shade “Daydream Scream” which I previously had no clue what the name of this shade was and I had to guess, but turns out it is on the bottle; the other bottle didn't say so I just assumed lol. I believe this polish can be found at Hot Topic.

First off, I’d like to say that this is not a one coat polish. I used three coats to get the color I have in this photo. However, I didn’t really mind doing three coats because each thin coat dried SO QUICK. It dried in less than a minute so it was cool. Secondly, I’d like to say that this color is very pretty. It is a bluish-purple color and has a subtle glitter effect to it. I think it would be a good color to use for a galaxy nail design. Maybe I’ll do that sometime..? Lastly, the polish has lasted. I have washed the dishes two or three times since I put it on and it hasn’t chipped at all. It hasn’t even worn off at the tips of my nails as much as other polishes do. I’m pretty satisfied with it.

Overall, I’d say this polish is pretty great. It was a great gift and I’m glad it’s part of my collection. As I said, I think this would be a great base to a galaxy nail design. If anyone wants to try that out, get this polish at Hot Topic or online and tell me how that works out lol. I’ll see you on Wednesday! BYYEEE

Firework Nails

Hello everyone! If you live in America then tomorrow is an exciting day for you, full of celebration. With that celebration comes amazing fireworks. So, without further a do here are my Independence Day firework nails. The polishes I used were Sally Hansen's "Co-balt Blue" (#320), "Red My Lips" (#470), "Silver Sweep" (#230), and "Grape Shifter" (#423), NYC's "French White Tip" (#134), and Blackheart Beauty's "Deep Sky Blue". I also used a nail dotter to create the fireworks. I started by painting the base colors on my nails, alternating the colors on each finger, and letting that dry. I chose to do my fireworks on the navy blue nails, but you can do them on the red or even on all the nails if you choose. For the fireworks I started with a dot for the center of the firework and added a red star there. Remember, the center of the firework does not have to be in the center of the nail (I only did that on one nai...

Green + Gold Accent Nail

Hello everyone! I wanted to do one more simple St. Patrick’s day nail design before I did the complex stuff. This is super easy and will last a while. Here’s what you’ll need. The polishes I used were Sally Hansen’s Insta-Dri shade “In Record Lime” (#50), Essie’s “Good As Gold” (#941), and my new Base + Top Coat by Revlon (#965). I also used gold glitter from SHANY's Nail Art Decoration Kit. First, I used one layer of the Revlon’s Base + Top coat to protect my nail. I am hoping that this will prevent any more staining that way my nails can grow out and be stain free before prom. Anyway, I painted all my nails, except the ring finger, with my green polish and sealed that off with a top coat. For my ring finger nail I painted two coats of my gold polish and let that dry (this is here just in case the glitter doesn’t reach all areas of the nail). Next, I painted on a layer of clear coat and quickly dipped my whole nail in the gold glitter . Brush off the excess glitter an...

Miracle Gel Swatches

Hey guys! I know this post is late, but now that school has started back up all I ever do is homework. It's ridiculous I don't do anything anymore (not that I ever did lol). Anyway enough excuses. I did these swatches forever ago, like October of last year, so my memory of these colors are a distant memory. However, I didn't have a post planned so I thought I would show you these. The deep red color is "Wine Stock" (#480). I really like this color and it would be a great holiday nail color. However, because I love red nail polish, especially deep red, I will wear this whenever I want. As every other Miracle Gel polish I own, this is a great polish. I believe this was only one coat as well which is super cool. The other color is "All Chalked Up" (#230) and it is a pastel purple color. This color is very light-hearted and cute looking which I appreciate when it is dreary outside and I get sad. This is also a great Easter color (apparently I l...
