That was fast, plus another half moon!

Hi guys!

As you all can see Toxic Lipstick is getting a brand new look! I'm still tweaking some minor details but comments seem to be back up and running, as I was using an external commenting system, since that came into play all comments were saved.

On another note, I'm noticing a heck of a lot of people not following basic direction when it comes to my contest.
Is it really that hard to find one thing you'd change about my blog? On the other hand, some of you have really cut loose and are pointing the finger at any little thing! I mean, I know I brought it on myself, but for new followers to enter and use it as a chance to be hurtful? Geez...
It goes without saying anyone that can NOT follow direction will be disqualified immediately.
I get the feeling they probably won't read this in any event, haha!


Okay now what most of you are here for, some pretty! This is a bit of a humungous post, so please excuse me! Think of it as me making up for being lazy these past couple of days!





This is three coats of Sally Hansen - Sheer Romance and 2 coats Cheri - Candy Apple.

Then I spiced it up a bit more! This is Maybelline Express Finish. Not sure the name of the colour as there's no label but it's a red jelly with very fine red glitter through it.





Then I added even more to it! This is Orly Prisma Gloss Gold.






Whew! I have something very special for you, I'll probably get impatient and do another little post in a couple of hours to show you!

Don't forget to enter my Giveaway!

Awesome giveaways and valentines nails!

http://www.kraseybeauty.com/2010/01/giveaway-time-krasey-beautys-one-year.html
$1000 worth of AWESOME. Check this OUT!!!

Now for your main event of this morning (evening?)

First off we have me trying the technique to remove glitter nail polish from my Goobie Goober post using nail polish remover, cotton pads and foil. Except I didn't have any foil so I used cling-wrap! It didn't work as well because it was really hard to get the cling wrap to stick to itself because it was wet. Bleh.

Here's what I got, before:

during:
Yay! Tape!


and after:
Hahahaha wrinkly!

Not too bad - though it would have worked much better with foil, it was still much less of a nightmare than usual! The remaining glitters came off really easily and felt kind of "melty" and floppy.

Now for my latest manicure - I wanted to give the Konad another go. Unfortunately I only have one plate so it's going to look a bit familiar.


I added some red diamantes and little diamante hearts to my thumbs.


Then I decided this was altogether way too boring and not valentines inspired at all.
So I kept going...



Much nicer! the girl at the shop yesterday almost had a tiny conniption when she saw them!
What do you think?

Love,
