I have tried to do this circle nail art by dipping a straw in nail polish then <i>trying</i> to apply it to my nails; but it never worked out. Instead of trying it the same way again I created this look by making my own nail art stickers!<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-Auz5czC3QDM/U0F6RCQrO7I/AAAAAAAAeQk/DJMwvfKp0y8/s1600/5136987044761808_qauZvG9E_c.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-Auz5czC3QDM/U0F6RCQrO7I/AAAAAAAAeQk/DJMwvfKp0y8/s1600/5136987044761808_qauZvG9E_c.jpg" height="200" width="148" /></a></div><br />Does anyone know whose nails these are? I have done all sorts of googling and nothing comes up. So if anyone recalls whose hand this is please leave a comment so I can link back to the blog post ~ TIA!<br /><br /><br />Anyhoo-this photo is a few years old so my memory is fuzzy - but they said they dipped a straw in NP to achieve this look. I have tried it three times and it always looked terrible - especially on my non-hand-model-hand ~ but I love how this looks so I kept trying. <br /><br /><br /><br />To do it the D.I.Y. nail sticker way; I applied a coat of clear polish on a zip-lock bag ( any kind of clear storage bag should work --- but I recommend a thicker zip lock freezer bag). When the clear base dried, I dipped plastic drinking straws into different coloured polish's and randomly added these multi-coloured circles. When the coloured polish circles were dry I applied another thick coat of clear polish over them.<br /><br />I waited overnight to try and apply these DIY nail stickers to my nails. The base polish is 2 coats of Wet n Wild White --- I cut the nail stickers to fit then gently affixed the DIY nail stickers to my nails. I applied a thick coat of Pro-FX Top Coat. I ended up with some bubbles and weird grey marks on my nails but I am still very happy with how this turned out.<br /><br />This took way, waaaaaaaaaaaaaay longer then just dipping a straw in polish and applying directly to my nails, but whenever I have tried it that way, it never looks good. So even though this is time consuming and needs perfecting, I like it way better than the alternative.<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-ujkYfdMnAMM/U0FreWQcm1I/AAAAAAAAeP8/JNBKGo6fEko/s1600/straw+circles+with+Kozmic+Colours+neons+----DEEZ-NAILZ+%25281%2529.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-ujkYfdMnAMM/U0FreWQcm1I/AAAAAAAAeP8/JNBKGo6fEko/s1600/straw+circles+with+Kozmic+Colours+neons+----DEEZ-NAILZ+%25281%2529.JPG" height="322" width="400" /></a></div><br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><div style="text-align: center;">the orange neon polish is throwing my camera off </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-ZdTKZlCjp0E/U0Fr73U-LjI/AAAAAAAAeQE/3_kWGNFCaAY/s1600/straw+circles+with+Kozmic+Colours+neons+----DEEZ-NAILZ+%25284%2529.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-ZdTKZlCjp0E/U0Fr73U-LjI/AAAAAAAAeQE/3_kWGNFCaAY/s1600/straw+circles+with+Kozmic+Colours+neons+----DEEZ-NAILZ+%25284%2529.JPG" height="302" width="640" /></a></div><br /><div style="text-align: center;"> I thought this would be enough for all 10 nails, but it wasn't!

Top of the Gold is a gold flakie top coat, I found this at walmart Canada for $1.50. <br /><br />I think this will look amazing over darker polish's and I will definitly be layering this over black in the future. N.Y.C. has 4 new-ish top coats; a matte, a multi-coloured fine glitter, this gold flakie one and a pretty blue and silver sparkle. All four are worth having and I think I'll have to do a N.Y.C.

I didn't think I would get this much glitter coverage out of one coat of N.Y.C. Disco Inferno. This is a multi-sized dark blue and silver glitter top coat. It was easy to apply and dried fast. I layered 1 coat of Disco Inferno over 2 coats N.Y.C. Water Street Blue.<br /><br />These N.Y.C. polishes have been 2 for $3.00 for years and I am always happy with them when I wear them. They are soooooo in-expensive and I find them to be easy to apply. There is 3 new-ish glitter top coats that I hope to wear this week. If you live in Canada, and want to treat yourself - got to Walmart and splurge! $1.50 for 24 hours of glittery goodness! N.Y.C keeps adding new colours to their In A New York Minute line, and so far every one I have tried has been fabulous.<br /><br />While it was nice to have shorter nails for a while --- I just don't feel glamorous without my fake nails on. These are trophy-wife length Nails that are discontinued.

I used a thin striping brush to make curved lines with Wet n Wild Wild Shine Burgundy Frost, a swipe of Wet n Wild Mega Last in On the 101 = a pretty, multi-sized glitter in a black jelly base. I also added a few strokes of Witchcraft Red Glitter, for maximum glittery-ness<br /><br /> I added a coat of Pro-FX TC. This smoothed out any bumpy-ness - but I find that this TC takes alot of work to remove with regular polish remover becuase it is sooooo thick.<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><div style="text-align: center;">Stuff I used for this mani</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;

Icing Baby Doll top coat has multi-sized opalescent glitter. The formula is the same as most Icing brand nail polish that I have tried, it didn't do much to smoothe out the lumpy sponged polish, and I dont feel like it sped up my dry time, the multi-sized opalescent glitter is mesmerizing. I think that this will be very pretty over a dark royal blue or even black...... next time.<br /><br />The base of this Mani is a gradient sponge of 2 pretty pink no-name nail polishes from Kozmic Colors that I found at the DollarRama. I have about 75 of these Kozmic color polish's they are found at the Dollar Tree and also at the DollarRama in Canada. They are dirt cheap and this company is cranking out new collection every 6 months, and so I try and get the whole collection at once when I see it.<br /><br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-le_RNGcdX1E/Uzdim060nAI/AAAAAAAAeIM/yRmtUEUz7s4/s1600/Kosmic+colors+sponge+with+Icing+bbay+dolls+shake+it+up+---Deez-Nailz---+(4).JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-le_RNGcdX1E/Uzdim060nAI/AAAAAAAAeIM/yRmtUEUz7s4/s1600/Kosmic+colors+sponge+with+Icing+bbay+dolls+shake+it+up+---Deez-Nailz---+(4).JPG" height="569" width="640" /></a></div><br /><div style="text-align: center;">yes I know this is janky masking tape, I try to recycle whenever I can </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-OnziETsdTXc/Uzdhx2hTqzI/AAAAAAAAeIE/G-vcfq4S10A/s1600/Kosmic+colors+sponge+with+Icing+bbay+dolls+shake+it+up+---Deez-Nailz---+(1).JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-OnziETsdTXc/Uzdhx2hTqzI/AAAAAAAAeIE/G-vcfq4S10A/s1600/Kosmic+colors+sponge+with+Icing+bbay+dolls+shake+it+up+---Deez-Nailz---+(1).JPG" height="400" width="386" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-Z_6Q0MEA4Kw/Uzdivc7XT2I/AAAAAAAAeIU/Ivd68HZGIQE/s1600/Kosmic+colors+sponge+with+Icing+bbay+dolls+shake+it+up+---Deez-Nailz---+(5).JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-Z_6Q0MEA4Kw/Uzdivc7XT2I/AAAAAAAAeIU/Ivd68HZGIQE/s1600/Kosmic+colors+sponge+with+Icing+bbay+dolls+shake+it+up+---Deez-Nailz---+(5).JPG" height="622" width="640" /></a></div><br /><div style="text-align: center;">in dimmer lighting for maximum opalescent-ness.......opalescent-ey......opalescent-tivity</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-smNBJaNbevY/UzdhJupE5MI/AAAAAAAAeH0/zcKnJcbC11c/s1600/Kosmic+colors+sponge+with+Icing+bbay+dolls+shake+it+up+---Deez-Nailz---+(3).JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-smNBJaNbevY/UzdhJupE5MI/AAAAAAAAeH0/zcKnJcbC11c/s1600/Kosmic+colors+sponge+with+Icing+bbay+dolls+shake+it+up+---Deez-Nailz---+(3).JPG" height="506" width="640" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;">o</div>Casandrahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12029164014714486043noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7735367091886546467.post-46711305759729701222014-03-27T07:06:00.000-07:002014-09-24T09:35:42.000-07:00SORRY! ................ and Kosmic Colors Zebra nail art from the dollar-rama<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-SvEU8Tv5kkk/UzQoZbjyBRI/AAAAAAAAeHk/pgQ_zBbqLL4/s1600/pink+and+red+kosmic+colours+and+wet+n+wild+top+coat+----DEEZ-NAILZ----+(6).JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-SvEU8Tv5kkk/UzQoZbjyBRI/AAAAAAAAeHk/pgQ_zBbqLL4/s1600/pink+and+red+kosmic+colours+and+wet+n+wild+top+coat+----DEEZ-NAILZ----+(6).JPG" height="400" width="365" /></a></div><br /> I had to erase my blog-roll and do a bunch of other stuff to my blog layout ---- hopefully everyone has <span style="color: black;"><a href="http://www.google.ca/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=web&cd=1&cad=rja&uact=8&sqi=2&ved=0CCkQFjAA&url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.bloglovin.com%2F&ei=wC00U87JDIa6yQGq04DQDw&usg=AFQjCNF9sv6R4Fm3D1Q_WjBQCUtYhEWK5Q&sig2=PjByqGbf0xS8vkqVRXhoNA&bvm=bv.63808443,d.aWM"><span style="font-size: small;"><b>blog-lov'in</b></span></a> </span>or some other type of blog-reader-thingy, and won't miss my massive list of NAIL BLOGS for a week or two. When i have time this weekend i will have to figure out what to do about that. i wasn't able to edit it and people who abandoned their blogs, somehow their blogs turned into ads for companies and things I do not want to be associated with - so I had to erase the whole thing and I will have to start over. <br /><br />I get bummed out when some of my favorite blogs stop posting, or don't post as much as usual, and so I am sorry for doing that myself. I am straight up addicted to the Internet. = I could stay online from morning till night reading and looking at pictures of all sorts of things. I wish I had dial up cuz I would get frustrated easily and only have the patience for 1/2 hr of Internet a day LOL! So I have to just stay away all together<br /><br />I am still alive but I am trying to not buy nail polish, and not spend 3 hours a day looking at nail blogs, nail art pictures, Pinterest and DIY websites (decor and do-it-yourself blogs) It is super duper hard!<br /><br /> I have also been bribing myself with new nail polish PURCHASES when I get things done around my home = it's not <i>really</i> working but I have reduced my ass-to-couch time quite a bit, and I am pretty proud of that. I still do my nails and try all the new easy nail art technique's I have found on-line. I am still only allowed to buy bottles of nail polish if they are under $2.00 CAD, The Dollar-Rama in Canada has been a goldmine for polish lately.<br /><br />Which brings me to today's post. This is 2 pretty polish's from the Kosmic Colors line that I picked up last summer.... ( summer of 2013) I used 3 coats of the No-Name Pink, and used a small liner brush to make the Zebra Stripes in this No-Name Red. I added a sloppy coat of the Wet n Wild ' Clear Nail Protector that I found at The Dollar-Rama......<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-e-QL9NHqw4Y/UzQoFaSJwfI/AAAAAAAAeHM/0U1RMLjG4AE/s1600/pink+and+red+kosmic+colours+and+wet+n+wild+top+coat+----DEEZ-NAILZ----+(2).JPG" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-e-QL9NHqw4Y/UzQoFaSJwfI/AAAAAAAAeHM/0U1RMLjG4AE/s1600/pink+and+red+kosmic+colours+and+wet+n+wild+top+coat+----DEEZ-NAILZ----+(2).JPG" height="400" width="280" /></a><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-QzgQtCXqqB8/UzQn26C18GI/AAAAAAAAeG8/n0IaD-k2Txo/s1600/pink+and+red+kosmic+colours+and+wet+n+wild+top+coat+----DEEZ-NAILZ----+(1).JPG" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-QzgQtCXqqB8/UzQn26C18GI/AAAAAAAAeG8/n0IaD-k2Txo/s1600/pink+and+red+kosmic+colours+and+wet+n+wild+top+coat+----DEEZ-NAILZ----+(1).JPG" height="400" width="307" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><br /><br /><div style="text-align: center;">stuff I used</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-2TY1CepQzLI/UzQoTGP41ZI/AAAAAAAAeHU/NmPLoYUHjLs/s1600/pink+and+red+kosmic+colours+and+wet+n+wild+top+coat+----DEEZ-NAILZ----+(4).JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-2TY1CepQzLI/UzQoTGP41ZI/AAAAAAAAeHU/NmPLoYUHjLs/s1600/pink+and+red+kosmic+colours+and+wet+n+wild+top+coat+----DEEZ-NAILZ----+(4).JPG" height="521" width="640" /></a></div><br /><br /> I haven't really put this to the test, It dried pretty fast and shiny but didn't <i><b>totally</b> </i>disguise the bumpy finish of my Zebra nail art.

I guess I was excited about these neat matte neon glitters that I found at The Dollar Tree. Instead of mixing these into a clear base, I opted to do a glitter sprinkle. The ratio of glitter here is 3 parts orange, 1 part purple and 1 part blue.<br /><br />I started with a base of Claire's Matte Grey, when it dried I applied a coat of Pro FX Top Coat, then stuck a fluffy brush into my glitter mix and sprinkled it onto my nail. I applied a coat of TC to seal it all in. I wanted to see what I kind of glitter density I could achieve, so I went buck wild and sprinkled on copious amounts of matte neon glitter to my pinky and ring nail. <br /><br /> I made a franken with this matte glitter but I prefer the glitter sprinkle method as opposed to an actual franken. dipping a fluffy dry brush into a container of glitter, then sprinkling it onto wet polish seems faster, I am able to achieve more glitter coverage and I can fill in sparse areas just as easily with sprinkling it on.<br /><br /><div style="text-align: center;">here is a photo of the package of glitter from The Dollar Tree </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-gju7sZEH3Ww/T7zhHekONJI/AAAAAAAAZNY/iBDQTyKT-Rc/s1600/sally+hansen+insta+dri+lightnening+and+blue+spark+---deez-nailz----+%25283%2529.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="300" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-gju7sZEH3Ww/T7zhHekONJI/AAAAAAAAZNY/iBDQTyKT-Rc/s400/sally+hansen+insta+dri+lightnening+and+blue+spark+---deez-nailz----+%25283%2529.JPG" width="400" /></a></div><br /><br /> .............. and now there is matte neon glitter <b><u>all over my</u></b> nail polishing area, those tiny little baggies of glitter below were not sealed properly, so the glitter leaked <b><u>everywhere</u></b>.

This mani is 3 coats of Icing Shredded layered over 2 coats of Icing Swept Away.<br /><br />Icing Swept Away is a medium grey that has a bit of purple to it. The formula was the same as all the other Icing polish's in a creme finish I have tried - It definitely smelled like a normal nail polish, lol.<br /><br />I did not add TC to this mani as I took it off immediately after the photos. I didn't want to have a smelly nail polish on my nails when it was potato chip night!... As you can see from the photos and as with most of these types of polish's = at least 2 thick coats of TC are needed to hide the bumpiness.<br /><br />I want to wear this polish again in the near future but I plan on adding copious amounts of TC to disguise the smell ( and bumpyness ). Has anyone else out there used an Icing polish that smelled aweful?<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-Ml4AmJY_ouk/UfB8TP7CaUI/AAAAAAAAdgA/WeizX3vi4Io/s1600/icing+shredded+----DEEZ-NAILZ---+(1).JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-Ml4AmJY_ouk/UfB8TP7CaUI/AAAAAAAAdgA/WeizX3vi4Io/s640/icing+shredded+----DEEZ-NAILZ---+(1).JPG" width="510" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-Ljp9pXqqMDY/UfB8h-1VM7I/AAAAAAAAdgs/ADGJ-zVRUNk/s1600/icing+shredded+----DEEZ-NAILZ---+(2).JPG" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="307" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-Ljp9pXqqMDY/UfB8h-1VM7I/AAAAAAAAdgs/ADGJ-zVRUNk/s320/icing+shredded+----DEEZ-NAILZ---+(2).JPG" width="320" /></a></div><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-ZE2t9cMft4g/UfB8YnmdzAI/AAAAAAAAdgU/AR9VvNYtHIo/s1600/icing+shredded+----DEEZ-NAILZ---+(3).JPG" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="282" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-ZE2t9cMft4g/UfB8YnmdzAI/AAAAAAAAdgU/AR9VvNYtHIo/s320/icing+shredded+----DEEZ-NAILZ---+(3).JPG" width="320" /></a><br /> @ 1 coat ~ I was hoping I would get a bit more coverage of the black shards considering the polish looks pretty dense in the bottle - I was a little disapointed at the first coat but this polish dried fast.<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br />@2 coats ~ The black shards started to fill in the sparse areas.

But what is real is how pretty this purple jelly gold fleck polish is. I think this would be pretty layered over any similar hues polish, I chose to wear it alone, 3 coats with base coat ( no TC )<br /><br />I was super duper happy to spot this at CVS in the U.S.A. along with another Spoiled polish I had my heart set on. the formula was great and it dried fast ---- I am totally impressed that it held up as well as it did, given that I have been rough on my hands and nails lately.<br /><br /><br /> I wore this through some gardening and outdoors-ey stuff and it held up really, really well. Since I have been trying to avoid any scented products and lotions, my cuticles look ragged and horrible - but my nails are strong and are holding up to gardening, painting, sanding and all sorts of house stuff ---- Normally my natural nails are flimsy and peel, but barely seeing a drop of lotion for the last few weeks has done my actual nails some good.....<br /><br />Also; I have finally got my Blogloving all sorted out so I can make sure I never miss anyone's posts, and included a blogloving button on my blog.

Most of the polish's I have acquired over the years from dollar stores have been just fine, though some are too stinky for me to desire using them again.<br /><br />Anyhoo ---- the formula on Insta Dri Expresso is always awesome, this is 2 coats. I did have some bubbling on account of the ridiculous humidity we have been having in my region, but I buffed those out and slapped on a coat of this pretty peach jelly base with gold shimmer and flecks.<br /><br /> I don't really know what to say about the colour of Expresso - - it doesnt really look like actual espresso. its more of a reddish mauve. Actually I really don't know what to call this colour, and maybe thats why they called it EX- Presso. Maybe they ran out of name ideas - whatever the case may be it's still very pretty. <br /><br />Is it a nude? oh dear - I have spent way to much time on this already................<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-xavKmtGNveQ/Ue06bY44ftI/AAAAAAAAdd4/dIeKKoNlk30/s1600/sally+hansen+insta+dri+Espresso+----DEEZ-NAILZ----+(2).JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-xavKmtGNveQ/Ue06bY44ftI/AAAAAAAAdd4/dIeKKoNlk30/s400/sally+hansen+insta+dri+Espresso+----DEEZ-NAILZ----+(2).JPG" width="285" /></a></div><br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-ufHhK9runRc/Ue06b45k7yI/AAAAAAAAdeA/71X80y6H5EQ/s1600/sally+hansen+insta+dri+Espresso+----DEEZ-NAILZ----+(1).JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="263" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-ufHhK9runRc/Ue06b45k7yI/AAAAAAAAdeA/71X80y6H5EQ/s400/sally+hansen+insta+dri+Espresso+----DEEZ-NAILZ----+(1).JPG" width="400" /></a></div><br /><div style="text-align: center;"> I buffed out some of the bubbles.......</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-W9vTnSdJ_qk/Ue06IsQjTpI/AAAAAAAAddU/hIyDw728jE0/s1600/cutoe+girl+peach+flecks+---DEEZ-NAILZ---+%25281%2529.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="331" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-W9vTnSdJ_qk/Ue06IsQjTpI/AAAAAAAAddU/hIyDw728jE0/s400/cutoe+girl+peach+flecks+---DEEZ-NAILZ---+%25281%2529.JPG" width="400" /></a></div><br /><div style="text-align: center;"> and added a coat of this no-name Cutie Girl polish</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-OemXEFGpVDU/Ue06PR2EGiI/AAAAAAAAddc/_34-UwnYgBM/s1600/cutoe+girl+peach+flecks+---DEEZ-NAILZ---+(2).JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="337" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-OemXEFGpVDU/Ue06PR2EGiI/AAAAAAAAddc/_34-UwnYgBM/s400/cutoe+girl+peach+flecks+---DEEZ-NAILZ---+(2).JPG" width="400" /></a></div><br /> Below; before I pulled it out to do a dupe check, I thought for sure Wet n' Wild's Casting Call would be the darker of the three - but it ended up being a much brighter and redder polish.<br /><br /><div style="text-align: center;">Avon Bare Necessity, Sally Hansen Expresso & Wet n ' Wild Casting Call</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-SgKZuxlRE74/Ue06SdFcx0I/AAAAAAAAdds/YRnCeHz1L0U/s1600/avon+bare+necissity%252C+sally+hansen+insta+dri+espresso%252C+wet+n+wild+casting+call+---DEEZ-NAILZ---+%25281%2529.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="361" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-SgKZuxlRE74/Ue06SdFcx0I/AAAAAAAAdds/YRnCeHz1L0U/s400/avon+bare+necissity%252C+sally+hansen+insta+dri+espresso%252C+wet+n+wild+casting+call+---DEEZ-NAILZ---+%25281%2529.JPG" width="400" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-nEjLeiFGMZA/Ue06PQkWjWI/AAAAAAAAddY/VR9TdU1bT0Y/s1600/avon+bare+necissity,+sally+hansen+insta+dri+espresso,+wet+n+wild+casting+call+---DEEZ-NAILZ---+(2).JPG" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="224" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-nEjLeiFGMZA/Ue06PQkWjWI/AAAAAAAAddY/VR9TdU1bT0Y/s320/avon+bare+necissity,+sally+hansen+insta+dri+espresso,+wet+n+wild+casting+call+---DEEZ-NAILZ---+(2).JPG" width="320" /></a></div><br /> dots of these similar polsish's.

Am I right? This mani is 1 coat of Wet n Wild Black Creme, followed by a no-name clear nail polish that I used to adhere these light green resin gems to my nails vertically. I didn't add a top coat which would have secured these for the day - I had some painting/sanding and other house stuff to do. <br /><br />The resin gems were purchased at the Dollarama 2 years ago, I used a piece of spaghetti that I licked to pick up the gems and place them on my nails..... I really like this look ---- next time I will be a little more patient with my placement and really adhere these with a thick layer of TC.<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-AlHa04sJw2s/Uen2S7GRsrI/AAAAAAAAda4/wx5G2BuKV8o/s1600/wet+n+wild+Black+with+green+resin+stones+---DEEZ-NAILZ---++(2).JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-AlHa04sJw2s/Uen2S7GRsrI/AAAAAAAAda4/wx5G2BuKV8o/s400/wet+n+wild+Black+with+green+resin+stones+---DEEZ-NAILZ---++(2).JPG" width="283" /></a></div><br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-EQyx_HbrxnQ/Uen2OHwvU1I/AAAAAAAAdag/ft54miUvJTc/s1600/wet+n+wild+Black+with+green+resin+stones+---DEEZ-NAILZ---++(1).JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="335" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-EQyx_HbrxnQ/Uen2OHwvU1I/AAAAAAAAdag/ft54miUvJTc/s400/wet+n+wild+Black+with+green+resin+stones+---DEEZ-NAILZ---++(1).JPG" width="400" /></a></div><br /><br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-s1A8_qyN1ns/Uen2PloGxXI/AAAAAAAAdao/zR9P5wGe2-E/s1600/wet+n+wild+Black+with+green+resin+stones+---DEEZ-NAILZ---++(3).JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="568" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-s1A8_qyN1ns/Uen2PloGxXI/AAAAAAAAdao/zR9P5wGe2-E/s640/wet+n+wild+Black+with+green+resin+stones+---DEEZ-NAILZ---++(3).JPG" width="640" /></a></div><br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-xxB_LxtPv3M/Uen2SIQK4AI/AAAAAAAAdaw/D3hFXDRvhO8/s1600/wet+n+wild+Black+with+green+resin+stones+---DEEZ-NAILZ---++(5).JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-xxB_LxtPv3M/Uen2SIQK4AI/AAAAAAAAdaw/D3hFXDRvhO8/s400/wet+n+wild+Black+with+green+resin+stones+---DEEZ-NAILZ---++(5).JPG" width="275" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-JVWcMyy-Jvc/Uen2UOJ0oRI/AAAAAAAAdbE/YM6ztpSLymk/s1600/wet+n+wild+Black+with+green+resin+stones+---DEEZ-NAILZ---++(4).JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="242" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-JVWcMyy-Jvc/Uen2UOJ0oRI/AAAAAAAAdbE/YM6ztpSLymk/s400/wet+n+wild+Black+with+green+resin+stones+---DEEZ-NAILZ---++(4).JPG" width="400" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;">o</div>Casandrahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12029164014714486043noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7735367091886546467.post-55688930804709049702013-07-18T23:21:00.000-07:002014-09-24T09:35:42.291-07:00Club Havana Moonlit Dance<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-h3xeSth3xmg/UejV8fK_HhI/AAAAAAAAdWk/TlWNfomxkPg/s1600/wet+n+wild+club+havana+with+sally+hansen+moonlight+night+---DEEZ-NAILZ---+(2).JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-h3xeSth3xmg/UejV8fK_HhI/AAAAAAAAdWk/TlWNfomxkPg/s400/wet+n+wild+club+havana+with+sally+hansen+moonlight+night+---DEEZ-NAILZ---+(2).JPG" width="293" /></a><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-xuKOloxKcxM/UejV7rgE8CI/AAAAAAAAdWc/mlkJ4hLzoVk/s1600/wet+n+wild+club+havana+with+sally+hansen+moonlight+night+---DEEZ-NAILZ---+(1).JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-xuKOloxKcxM/UejV7rgE8CI/AAAAAAAAdWc/mlkJ4hLzoVk/s400/wet+n+wild+club+havana+with+sally+hansen+moonlight+night+---DEEZ-NAILZ---+(1).JPG" width="303" /></a></div><br /> I swear I don't work for Wet n Wild! Since I picked up these Megalast polish's last month, I seem to gravitate towards them when I decide to paint my nails. WnW Club Havana is a pretty coral creme; 3 coats to opacity for me and dried surprisingly fast. Its still pretty humid in my region and I am shocked every time I polish my nails and it actually dries thoroughly.<br /><br /><br />here is a quickie dupe check --- I thought for sure these two were the same colour; but WnW Club Havana is way more coral....

The yellow polish is the only one that I don't think I could wear.... it's too much on the yellow side......The tiny little brush and bottle cap made application tricky for me. Aren't these just the cutest little bottles? <br /><br />I found this set for 5 bucks @ Winners ( T.J.Maxx ), I would definitely recommend having the Techno High Metallic set, but I was disappointed with the holo set, all the iridescent polishes are the same, just in slightly different coloured jelly base's. Chunky black is where it's at - that is a beautiful polish! The box set says " Chunky holographic' but there is only 1 truely chunky holo in there...............<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-B7FKlsFYa58/TpCKgSg0PJI/AAAAAAAAYnI/7GrEZ9JJOcM/s1600/nail+fetish+artificial+nails%252C+la+colors+stripe+polish+and+wet+n+wild+hanna+pinktanna+---deez-nailz---+%25283%2529.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="220" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-B7FKlsFYa58/TpCKgSg0PJI/AAAAAAAAYnI/7GrEZ9JJOcM/s400/nail+fetish+artificial+nails%252C+la+colors+stripe+polish+and+wet+n+wild+hanna+pinktanna+---deez-nailz---+%25283%2529.JPG" width="400" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><br />I tried to layer one of the Klean Color Chunky Holo's over this lovely metallic teal but it barely showed up.<br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-oIMDkdoL9Iw/UeX98lKf4AI/AAAAAAAAdS8/uRvSAy1ZNwU/s1600/Klean+Kolor+metallic+mini%27s+---DEEZ-NAILZ---+(5).JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-oIMDkdoL9Iw/UeX98lKf4AI/AAAAAAAAdS8/uRvSAy1ZNwU/s400/Klean+Kolor+metallic+mini%27s+---DEEZ-NAILZ---+(5).JPG" width="317" /></a></div><br />.... and the dark purple <br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-nSUSVljNxT4/UeX9185ToaI/AAAAAAAAdSk/3wLt9AsjdS8/s1600/Klean+Kolor+metallic+mini%27s+---DEEZ-NAILZ---+(3).JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-nSUSVljNxT4/UeX9185ToaI/AAAAAAAAdSk/3wLt9AsjdS8/s640/Klean+Kolor+metallic+mini%27s+---DEEZ-NAILZ---+(3).JPG" width="430" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-rHsh8Sd3oeU/UeX9yGvu4ZI/AAAAAAAAdSc/lwaX4wDmKmw/s1600/Klean+Kolor+metallic+mini%27s+---DEEZ-NAILZ---+(4).JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="365" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-rHsh8Sd3oeU/UeX9yGvu4ZI/AAAAAAAAdSc/lwaX4wDmKmw/s400/Klean+Kolor+metallic+mini%27s+---DEEZ-NAILZ---+(4).JPG" width="400" /></a></div><br /><div style="text-align: center;">I needed to add nail polish thinner to this polish..... </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-DtrTqkJgg00/UeX9_sJskqI/AAAAAAAAdTE/Rar1-O5aa-8/s1600/Klean+Kolor+metallic+mini%27s+---DEEZ-NAILZ---+(6).JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-DtrTqkJgg00/UeX9_sJskqI/AAAAAAAAdTE/Rar1-O5aa-8/s400/Klean+Kolor+metallic+mini%27s+---DEEZ-NAILZ---+(6).JPG" width="328" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-SvXk1jJFkWM/UeX9_4wOS2I/AAAAAAAAdTI/hbRWpPwxLsI/s1600/Klean+Kolor+metallic+mini%27s+---DEEZ-NAILZ---+(7).JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="382" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-SvXk1jJFkWM/UeX9_4wOS2I/AAAAAAAAdTI/hbRWpPwxLsI/s400/Klean+Kolor+metallic+mini%27s+---DEEZ-NAILZ---+(7).JPG" width="400" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;">o</div>Casandrahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12029164014714486043noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7735367091886546467.post-72077122038334310462013-07-15T14:30:00.000-07:002014-09-24T09:35:42.362-07:00Icing Love-It and Wet N Wild Candy-Licious<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-igCDeMuc704/UeRIw_zd7RI/AAAAAAAAdQU/1aUfQ2fDzJQ/s1600/Icing+Love-it+With+Wet+n+Wild+Candy+Liscious+---DEEZ-NAILZ---+(1).JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-igCDeMuc704/UeRIw_zd7RI/AAAAAAAAdQU/1aUfQ2fDzJQ/s640/Icing+Love-it+With+Wet+n+Wild+Candy+Liscious+---DEEZ-NAILZ---+(1).JPG" width="536" /></a></div><br />I love all sorts of glitter but this polish wasn't glittery enough for me. I recently visited an Icing Store and picked up quite a few of these Icing polishes. We used to have one in the nearest big city but they closed down, it was one of the only reasons I even went to the mall in that town. Anyways, this is a blue/gold/magenta/black glitter that I found too sparse for my glitter neeeds - but I love black glitter right now so I suppose I will hang onto it.<br /><br />The base is 3 coats of a light pink creme from Wet N Wild Megalast. I am loving these Megalast polishes from Wet n Wild. I probably could have added another coat as I had a few sparse areas but it was a nice day and I wanted to hang out outside.<br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-SXnGBsybxS4/UeRI1mDD0HI/AAAAAAAAdQc/efl-H_TKb00/s1600/Icing+Love-it+With+Wet+n+Wild+Candy+Liscious+---DEEZ-NAILZ---+(2).JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="512" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-SXnGBsybxS4/UeRI1mDD0HI/AAAAAAAAdQc/efl-H_TKb00/s640/Icing+Love-it+With+Wet+n+Wild+Candy+Liscious+---DEEZ-NAILZ---+(2).JPG" width="640" /></a></div><br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-MAdlFxTbYKI/UeRI-0oD9wI/AAAAAAAAdQk/O8I7k-svaU4/s1600/Icing+Love-it+With+Wet+n+Wild+Candy+Liscious+---DEEZ-NAILZ---+(4).JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-MAdlFxTbYKI/UeRI-0oD9wI/AAAAAAAAdQk/O8I7k-svaU4/s640/Icing+Love-it+With+Wet+n+Wild+Candy+Liscious+---DEEZ-NAILZ---+(4).JPG" width="546" /></a></div><br /><br /><div style="text-align: center;">WnW Mega Last Candy-Licious on its own... 3 coats </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-ewnIUUeAvHc/UeRJQuhDWsI/AAAAAAAAdRY/9KTzzH6ikKI/s1600/wet+n+wild+Candy-liscious+---DEEZ-NAILZ---+%25281%2529.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-ewnIUUeAvHc/UeRJQuhDWsI/AAAAAAAAdRY/9KTzzH6ikKI/s320/wet+n+wild+Candy-liscious+---DEEZ-NAILZ---+%25281%2529.JPG" width="248" /></a><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-8FRoMHBL0B4/UeRJR4wk1KI/AAAAAAAAdRc/MlGxdmhrN4M/s1600/wet+n+wild+Candy-liscious+---DEEZ-NAILZ---+(2).JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-8FRoMHBL0B4/UeRJR4wk1KI/AAAAAAAAdRc/MlGxdmhrN4M/s320/wet+n+wild+Candy-liscious+---DEEZ-NAILZ---+(2).JPG" width="256" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><br /> ......... and here is another pretty WnW Mega Last mani; I heard it Through the Grapevine. 2 coats.<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-7QWA6Y3d8kM/UeRJJt6-l-I/AAAAAAAAdQ8/CFa6EIh20cE/s1600/Wet+n+Wild+Through+The+GrapeVine+---DEEZ-NAILZ---+(3).JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-7QWA6Y3d8kM/UeRJJt6-l-I/AAAAAAAAdQ8/CFa6EIh20cE/s320/Wet+n+Wild+Through+The+GrapeVine+---DEEZ-NAILZ---+(3).JPG" width="248" /></a><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-7iQPWS-qE7o/UeRI-zStLgI/AAAAAAAAdQo/z41FqrYRnHE/s1600/Wet+n+Wild+Through+The+GrapeVine+---DEEZ-NAILZ---+(2).JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-7iQPWS-qE7o/UeRI-zStLgI/AAAAAAAAdQo/z41FqrYRnHE/s320/Wet+n+Wild+Through+The+GrapeVine+---DEEZ-NAILZ---+(2).JPG" width="242" /></a></div><br /><br />I used this L.A. Colors top/base for this mani and I don't think it dried fast enough..... next time I will give it more time to dry as a base coat. The smudge was not due to the polish but to clumsiness on my part; I really should try to sit still for at least 3 minutes immediately after I paint my nails lol. To disguise the smudge I dabbed on a little more WnW Heard it Through the Grapevine then added a coat of Wet n Wild Fast Dry Hannah Pinktanna.<br /><br /><div style="text-align: left;">This polish bottle magically opened by itself and leaked all over the place.

However, on a recent trip to the U.S.A. I picked up a handful of the beautiful glitters - but am craving more. I am so glad I popped into the Dollar General store because it was a nail polish goldmine!<br /><br /> Is that <a href="http://www.google.ca/url?sa=i&source=images&cd=&cad=rja&docid=WqlCcXifBitnbM&tbnid=bS1gpDijBxczPM:&ved=0CAYQjhwwAA&url=http%3A%2F%2Fnouveaucheap.blogspot.com%2F2013%2F03%2Fwet-n-wild-adds-40-new-shades-to.html&ei=8YvgUceDLYW6yAHu6oCoDg&psig=AFQjCNFw7Y4x6fZnbyRb6qeDBaeCTRPujQ&ust=1373756785774149">collection</a> supposed to end up in Canada? Anyone know? I hope so because there is at least 12 more that I want!!!!!!There is some seriously beautiful polish's in that collection and they have a great formula and a good price. <br /><br />This mani is 2 coats of MegaLast I Red a Good Book with 3 coats of Club Cabaret layered over it. I just saw on Nouvea Cheap's blog ( U.S.A.- Sorry rest of the world ) that these two polish's are being <a href="http://nouveaucheap.blogspot.com/2013/06/spotted-new-wet-n-wild-value-packs-at.html">sold together for 2.99 @ Walgreen's</a>. I think these are under $3.00 \cad, but I can't remember how much for sure.<br /><br /> Wn'W Club Cabaret is a pretty red/silver multi-sized glitter. My only complaint is that there is not more of a colour distinction between the larger hex glitter and the smaller round glitter. I think the small bubbles helped fill in some glitter-sparse areas - lol.<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-osG9a0cBcIc/UeCIOqiQBHI/AAAAAAAAdPE/hDLw26X5yR8/s1600/wet+n+wild+i+read+a+good+book++ans+wet+n+wild+club+cabaret+---DEEZ-NAILZ---+%25282%2529.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-osG9a0cBcIc/UeCIOqiQBHI/AAAAAAAAdPE/hDLw26X5yR8/s640/wet+n+wild+i+read+a+good+book++ans+wet+n+wild+club+cabaret+---DEEZ-NAILZ---+%25282%2529.JPG" width="496" /></a></div><br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-HTeKcFKrg0U/UeCIN51yFLI/AAAAAAAAdO4/fIKsOOSxDvc/s1600/wet+n+wild+i+read+a+good+book++ans+wet+n+wild+club+cabaret+---DEEZ-NAILZ---+(3).JPG" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-HTeKcFKrg0U/UeCIN51yFLI/AAAAAAAAdO4/fIKsOOSxDvc/s400/wet+n+wild+i+read+a+good+book++ans+wet+n+wild+club+cabaret+---DEEZ-NAILZ---+(3).JPG" width="302" /></a></div><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-ZqrqcIDHpR8/UeCIVktxzsI/AAAAAAAAdPU/l-VdQJIb1wQ/s1600/wet+n+wild+i+read+a+good+book+---DEEZ-NAILZ---+%25282%2529.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-ZqrqcIDHpR8/UeCIVktxzsI/AAAAAAAAdPU/l-VdQJIb1wQ/s400/wet+n+wild+i+read+a+good+book+---DEEZ-NAILZ---+%25282%2529.JPG" width="302" /></a><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-mJ56q5mIvV0/UeCIWHoMJLI/AAAAAAAAdPY/JxU1I3S0wW8/s1600/wet+n+wild+i+read+a+good+book+---DEEZ-NAILZ---+(1).JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="372" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-mJ56q5mIvV0/UeCIWHoMJLI/AAAAAAAAdPY/JxU1I3S0wW8/s400/wet+n+wild+i+read+a+good+book+---DEEZ-NAILZ---+(1).JPG" width="400" /></a></div><br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-NcCxTTZ-4hI/UeCIHtX4J9I/AAAAAAAAdO0/pbjXfaXLnM4/s1600/wet+n+wild+i+read+a+good+book++ans+wet+n+wild+club+cabaret+---DEEZ-NAILZ---+%25284%2529.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="494" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-NcCxTTZ-4hI/UeCIHtX4J9I/AAAAAAAAdO0/pbjXfaXLnM4/s640/wet+n+wild+i+read+a+good+book++ans+wet+n+wild+club+cabaret+---DEEZ-NAILZ---+%25284%2529.JPG" width="640" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-gIBR2Z7td_A/UeCIQ23WcSI/AAAAAAAAdPM/xUUfdjqqqEg/s1600/wet+n+wild+i+read+a+good+book++ans+wet+n+wild+club+cabaret+---DEEZ-NAILZ---+%25285%2529.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-gIBR2Z7td_A/UeCIQ23WcSI/AAAAAAAAdPM/xUUfdjqqqEg/s640/wet+n+wild+i+read+a+good+book++ans+wet+n+wild+club+cabaret+---DEEZ-NAILZ---+%25285%2529.JPG" width="480" /></a></div><br /><div style="text-align: center;">o</div>Casandrahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12029164014714486043noreply@blogger.com0
