Happy Holo Day ^_^

So a bunch of my friends on Facebook declared today May 19th to be Holo Day so here's my holo day mani ;] i had a hard time choosing which holo baby to use but I finally ended up choosing MakeUp store's Siw with ManGlaze's Cabron to jazz it up...

I was going to try do a holo gradient, but then I decided I wanted to do a tape mani instead since those are faster and require less clean up :)

So I started with a coat of Make Up Store's Aqua base coat, and then Siw ...then I taped with a striping tape and put on Manglaze's Cabron on the sections I wanted...

Simply cut a length of tape (you can use scotch tape too but I prefer using the striping tape because I can see what I'm doing more clearly) then tape the nail...then paint the sections that you want another color..then remove the tape...voila~ ;]

i really like the matte and the holo together...the drastic different textures look pretty neat...

 For my "accent" nail...I simply painted the middle of the gap created by the tape instead of painting on the outside...

Hope you guys liked my holo mani ;]

Obnoxious people made me bust out my manglaze...

Woa.. long time no post ;) ... anyways I'm starting to get back on track with school so expect to see more posts.. and yes once my paycheck comes in I'll be posting the next giveaway up... so onto the manicure.. In one of my management classes there's this obnoxious lady...and boy oh boy did I get irritated by her...every dang thing the professor said she would giggle or make some irrelevant comment that drove me NUTS!!! I'm so glad I'm not in her group for groupwork...*thanks god for small favors* lol...anyways this is going to sound really bad...but the first thing I thought of was Man Glaze- Fuck off and Dye..... I dont mean any ill will to her [other then like a sore throat so she wont say anything inclass maybe...] but seriously this was the mani related thought that came to mind..so this one's for you obnoxious lady from my class..hahah

So I did different "designs" on my hands but the idea was the same..and the same sentiment too.... haha...

On my right hand I did two coats of Matte is Murder..cuz seriously..murderous thought were swimmin in my head every time she giggled....no joke... but this color is sooooo awesome...manglaze is just the bomb dot com....i just adore their matte polishes...

Next on my left hand i put on Man Glaze's Fuck off and Dye...such a pretty pink... Its just so lovely ;)

Then I layered China Glaze- Broken hearted on top of matte is murder and cracked concrete on top of fuck off and dye...and thats it... thank goodness I'm not in the same group as ms.obnoxious.. >.< I sit in the back of the class to avoid her as much as possible...

P.S go check out ManGlaze on facebook HERE ... they have pretty amazing stuff...if you have never tried a matte polish trust me..Manglaze is the way to go...

ManGlaze..I freakin love you~

Recently I've become the very proud owner of 5 ManGlaze Matte Nail Polishes... dude these things are CRAZY good... >.< at first I only bought Matte is Murder and Fuggen Ugly but after seeing The TraceFacePhiles swatch ILF......I got tempted and ended up buying F^ck Off and Dye (loove that name btw), ILF, and Cabron..

They are so great....

A whole bunch of goodies were also in the box that the polish came in... :)

The names crack me up...I didn't have time to do full swatches of each color so I did a mani using every color...

Here's the names/order of what's what... Pinky: F^ck off and Dye, Ring Finger: ILF, Middle Finger: Cabron, Index Finger: Matte is Murder, Thumb: Fuggen Ugly..

First up, F^ck Off & Dye...even if I hated this color I would've bought it anyway cuz the name is that great...but I love pink so this color was great... its a great bright pink in ManGlaze's signature Matte finish... loove~

Next up, on my ring finger was ILF...this turquiose-y blue-y color is soo pretty! I really can't find another color like it... and once again the matte finish makes it that much more great...

on my middle finger we have Cabron...which is a really deep purple-y color...sometimes it seems black but it's actually a deep purple-y blue-y color...i think its a nice alternative to black sometimes..

Next up...Matte is Murder...it looks simple but its not...there's a sheen of glittery awesome-ness that can be seen...more pictures towards the bottom of this post..

and last but not least... we have Fuggen Ugly which is anything but ugly...this grey color is subtle to me is a good substitute when wearing black may be  a little too much for you..

I wore this mani for like a week...and it was great...the tipwear was almost non-existent..which is a big plus for me..

These two pictures were taken 3 days into the mani and look at the non-existent tipwear...this stuff wears like iron.. I just couldn't believe the wear on these... I shelve a lot of books at work (seen above..both sides of that cart are THAT packed) and I do one cart that packed and then other not as packed carts but it's hell on my nails....most of the mes I have to change my mani not because I wanted to but because it chipped after work or had bad tipwear so I needed to change it..Manglaze did not let me down..that stuff is great..I freakin love it!!

This is a side by side comparison of Matte is Murder( left) and Cabron (right)...you can see that on the right there is a purple-y sheen to it..and the glitter-y matte-ness is stronger then the black....

Here is the side to side comparison of Cabron (left), Matte is Murder (middle), Fuggen ugly (Thumb)

There is a difference that can be clearly seen in the three colors... but if I had to choose only one... I think I'd stick with Matte is Murder...that is so classic~

I did a quick full-on Matte is Murder mani but didnt take too many pictures.. I did switch it up a bit by using Seche Vite top coat on my index finger...

Look at that shimmery awesome-ness...that is a the greatness of Matte is Murder..

Matte

 and not matte...I really like that with a top coat I can transform the polish into a different look.

 that is so dang awesome... -_-"

I was so excited about my ManGlaze polishes that my mom was like "oh do my nails too" hehe..so she has Cabron on all her nails except her ring fingers which I used F^ck off & Dye for her left hand and ILF on her right...

Currently Manglaze can be purchased on their Facebook Shop in which they are having a SALE..Matte is Murder and Fuggen Ugly normally retail for $6.66 is now $5.99 and the other colors are usually $13.13 are now $11.82... you MUST go check it out... or you can click to their Web Page to see more options (like to buy through amazon, facebook, or via their site)

I'm getting tempted to get NawSome Sauce and Royal Matterimoaning but alas I need to wait awhile at least until my paycheck comes to me... -___-"" so I'll leave you with one last picture of my ILF full mani...
