So this is a very special Fresh Paint Post.
Okay story time:
So I actually found Kimberly when she commented on one of my nail posts via Instagram.
I was intrigued by her thumbnail and was like 'hmm I wonder if those are her nails or if it's something she grabbed off the internet' - *proceed to clicking user account*
Oh Em Gee - They're hers!
BEST
NAILS
EVER.

*Goes back to my pic - replies back.*
*Continues to obsess over nail pictures for months.*
- Present Day -
medium dusty red jelly-creme base filled with tiny black and white hex glitter.
3 thin coats to full opacity, but can be used layered over various other polishes to create different and exciting new looks.
3-free and hand-blended
--------
I actually saw this on my friend Sam (Saaammage) and loved it on her!
In these photos I used 3 coats of the polish but you could easily just use two. It was my first time trying these so I was testing it out.
Finished off with a fast drying top coat, Seche Vite.
If you follow me on Instagram or are a regular reader of my blog you have probably seen me mention her in the past. Her and I talk back and forth and she very sweetly sent me some of the polishes she makes (MAKES...blows my mind!) - as well as a ridiculously good coffee flavored chocolate bar(?) thing that I've never seen/had before.
(I don't think it's sold here in the US (She's from Canada))
They are all beautiful and I can't wait to try them all out!
Be sure to keep an eye out for them in future 'Fresh Paint' Posts!

A litte me update for those interested:
Sorry I haven't had a video up yet - I fell off the wagon with my sleep schedule again and am really trying to fix it >_< I am also working hard to do a little spring cleaning in my apt AND my little brother is coming back again for a visit - TODAY! ^_^ I'm so excited and happy! (my family lives in Connecticut if you didn't know)
Lastly - I was eating pretty much a vegetarian diet the last week and a half which included a lot of soy products to supplement (normally I don't have soy products because I use to be allergic to it - now I can have soy sauce etc. but I was still not having it in large quantities (which is fine I heard too much isn't good for you anyway) but I am definitely having a reaction to it and just was not feeling great not to mention it messed with my skin. (I mean not bad enough where it will show on camera but I've been trying to take it easy, not wear makeup etc.)
For those wondering I'm not currently trying to go vegetarian (I've tried in the past and it has not worked out for me. Not liking vegetables and being allergic to soy really puts a damper on it lol) BUT I have been wanting to try to eat a bit healthier so I can feel (and look) better. Unfortunately a lot of the foods I had picked out happen to be soy based : \
boo.
If any of you have great tasting, not horrible for you, vegetarian recipes (that do not include beans) please share! It would be MUCH appreciated! (I know I can google to find recipes but I want something that is tried and true...by YOU!)

Hope you guys don't mind the bit of personal chat - sometimes I don't know when to throw it in. I don't want to do a separate post only on personal stuff because that's probably really boring haha but I do like to update you all and my blog definitely has a more intimate crowd.
Thank you all for sticking with me.
Reading, following, commenting on my blog as well as watching, subscribing and supporting me on YouTube.
It does not go unnoticed or unappreciated.
Talk to you all very soon.
Love,
Holly
