My Deep Thoughts of Seduction

Today I want to show you two polishes that I got at the recent meetup I went to!

I started with Milani Deep Thoughts. This was only ONE COAT! It went on really nicely. If I was going to wear this alone, then I would have done another coat so that it'd last longer, but I knew I was only using it as a base.

Then I layered one semi-thick coat of Cult Nails Seduction over top. I really like how it turned out!

Next time I use this polish, I think I'll use a lighter purple for the base. Even though I really liked Deep Thoughts...when I put Seduction over top, it kind of just looked like I layered it over black. Still, such a pretty combo!

My cuticles have been really dry lately, so that's why I have the cuticle oil on in the pictures. Also, sorry my picture quality is kind of weird..I'm still getting used to this whole taking pictures of my nails thing!

Deep Thoughts is one of Milani's new shades for spring and can be purchased here. Seduction is on pre-sale now along with the rest of the new Divas and Drama collection for Cult Nails, available here.

*These products were provided for me by Milani Cosmetics and Cult Nails for review.

Taking the plunge, FINALLY!

It all started just about a year ago when my best friend, Missy, sent me a link on my facebook to show me some awesome nail art she found on a blog. She knew that I have always loved nail polish. Little did she know, though, that sending me that link would send me into a tail spin of obssession <3 The rest of that day I searched countless nail blogs and looked at millions of pictures. I thought to myself one day I'll start a blog of my own!

Fast forward a few months and I found myself in touch with Maria of Cult Nails, after I found out that she lived only about 20 minutes away from me! She was putting together a nail polish blogger meetup for Central Florida bloggers. I happened to comment on her post and say how I wish I was a blogger, so that I could go.  She replied with "Come anyways!" I swear I almost died. After going to that meetup and meeting everyone there who had such great blogs, I wanted to start one even more!

Why didn't you just make a blog, you ask? Well, I am a full-time college student that also works part-time, so I just couldn't see myself finding the proper time for one.

Fast forward a few more months to this past Saturday when I attended another fabulous blogger meetup. While there Brittany, from Clumps of Mascara, said to me "You still need to make a blog!" I thought to myself...I really do just need to do it already, nail polish and reading blogs are all I think about anyways!

SO, here I am and I couldn't be more excited :) My wonderful Mom is the one who helped me name this blog, so that makes it even more special<3

Now that we basically have my life story out of the way, I'll leave you with what you're really here for...NAIL POLISH!

I was one of the lucky few that was able to order Cult Nail's Unicorn Puke AKA Clairvoyant. I did this combo back in November. I layered Unicorn Puke over this subtle holo, Petites Black Diamond.

In my next post I will talk more in detail about the AMAZING blogger meetup from this past Saturday <3

Thanks for reading! :)
