Holdiay Challenge Day 1!

Hi! I am going to start the month off with a bang!! I have set up a couple of features to help me keep up with blogging and all the work that goes along with it. If you don't already like my facebook page please do - so you can keep up with updates or you can follow me on twitter @YourFingertipss. Both of those will be updated with any blog news/posts.
psssstttt.... I would keep my eye out for a give away soon ;)

And if you do nothing else- please follow me on Instagram!! I post my mani's there before I ever blog about them, along with nail mail, and haul posts!! My name is @devin_atyourfingertips or you can click here. :)

So lets get this started!!!!

Here is the challenge I will be doing this month.... It was made by Happy Hands!
Today's theme is Red!

I used Different Dimentions Bazinga! from their Big Bang Theory Collection.





It is a clear base with small dark red hexes, with medium gold/yellow hexes, and large red and gold glitter as well.



And a macro of the bottle :D

Overall, I loved this polish. It was super easy to work with, and what you see here is just one coat! I did absolutely no fishing for glitter. I think next time I will do this over white to see what it looks like!

These pictures also have one, yes ONE coat of Red Carpet Revlon Colorstay underneath. It went on like a dream and only needed one coat - and I wasn't even trying. It is the perfect firetruck red!!

Below is one coat alone... 



And Here is the picture for the challenge!



Anyone love the Big Bang Theory as much as I do?? Join the challenge too!!

Hare Polish - Archipelago

Hi all!!! Sorry for my absence, I have been painting my nails and taking pics though!! So expect posts for the upcoming week :)

Hare Polish was one of the first "Indie" polish brands I heard of. I stumbled upon her tumblr, and she was talking about her etsy shop. (Which I had no idea what that was haha). 

Now, I own TONS of homemade polish and LOVE them!! I am totally for this new trend so expect those posts soon!

But my first 4 Hare polishes will hold a special place in my heart :)

Onto the swatches!!!





I love the cute little bunny stickers and her awesome handwriting!! This is showing three coats of archipelago. It is a dusty blue jelly with gold hex glitter from small to large. I love this polish! My only complaint is I would have loved if the glitter was more dense. Because I wanted more glitter this was a PITA to apply and by the time I was done, clean up was not going to happen. So I apologize for the messy cuticles. 

Hare Polish retails for $ and you can buy them at her etsy shop here.
And her profile says as of 3/1/12 shop is closed for a few months :( but hopefully it will be up and running soon!!!  


Do you remember your first indie polish???? Let me know in the comments!!
