Fake nails! Kiss Active Length Oval 100 piece review!

Woo hoo! Finally no nails down to the skin. These are Kiss Active Length nails, I got them on sale for a dollar off with coupon. It was about $5, and they've survived my breakdance class, so the glue's pretty good. I've chopped them down a bit, since they get in my way if they're too long. You're actually supposed to file them down to size, but I used a nail clipper, which worked well. They're about the same color as real nails, so if your polish is a little sheer, it looks the same. I wonder if I could do nail art on them before I apply them? I think it'd be easier, but I need to be careful when applying the glue, so none spoils the art. Also, little tip, if you like pressssssing down on the nails while the glue's setting, apply a little Vaseline to the skin of your fingers. Just a little, so you don't glue your finger to your nail. That glue. Is. Strong. You won't have fingers glued together forever, but you will probably ruin your nails. Make sure not to get any on the nails that haven't been glued yet, since they won't stick if the Vaseline gets on them.

Been a while, but...

So, another Picture of Katy Perry's Last Friday Night. It's been a while since I did my nails, because my nails have been chipping like CRAZY. As you can see in the picture, they are down to the skin. I'm looking into fake nails first thing I finish this paper for class and my Physics exam. (Wish me luck! I will need it.)

Katy Perry's "Last Friday Night" over white

I liked this shade since I first saw it. At first I bought the "Hottie" from Sinful Colors, but decided to get the original. It's definitely a lot lighter than it appears in the bottle, but in this picture looks more grey than blue. I'd describe it as a periwinkle, with glitter. I want to try this on a blue or black base and see the difference, the white lightens it a lot. I got this for $7.70, because I bought two bottles at a store in town. (Usually $7.85)

OPI Turquoise Shatter over OPI Need Sunglasses?

Quite pleased with how this shattered! It's the first time I've tried Shatter over another OPI lacquer....mostly because I never bought one before.

Review of OPI's "Need Sunglasses?"

Bought some OPI nail laquers a few days ago, so instead of doing homework, I'm blogging about it. This shade was really nice, only downside was that my blue hair started to rub off on it, and it took a lot of coats to get a nice shade. I put Turquoise Shatter over this, I'll be sure to post soon!
