NOTD: Chanel Eastern Light

Leave it to Chanel to make me want all of their Limited Edition polishes! This one is part of the Hong Kong De Chanel Collection. This color is supposed to be a "bold shade of opaque white".

Eastern Lights is a bright white polish {with a bit of a grey undertone} that needs at least 3 coats to be streak-free, it has a vague jelly-like consistence.


This color reminds me a lot of Essie's Marshmallow {seen here}, but Marshmallow is less opaque and takes 4+ coats and a lengthy drying time to look like this. 







There is another color in this collection called Western Light, it is a "deep chocolate, burnished with a heart of pearly red" if you're interested.


 I think i'll stick to this one, I love my white polishes!


Products Used:
Chanel- Eastern Light.

NOTD + Baseball

I had an exciting weekend, I bought more CM Nail Art polishes, gave myself a cool manicure, and saw my favorite rookie baseball star Mike Trout! <3 {get ready for loads of pictures!}

Let's start with some Nail Art:

 The final product: #27 for the my favorite Angels' Mike Trout :)


  •  I started out with a base coat of red polish, then added glitter and finished it off with 2 more coats of red polish. Result... 


Jelly Sandwich!
The sandwich gives off a multi-dimenional look I really like!




  • Next I took my red CM Nail Art polish and added 2 semi-circles followed by lots of small lines to create the baseball.



  • Finally, I drew the A and the 27 (freehand, using logos I found on Google as my guide) in Blue, then added Red over that. 
  • I finished the A off with a grey Halo- I used a shorter brush in order to get the rounded effect more precise.

I realize that the 27 could have used a second attempt... but I blame it on having a strictly dominant left hand and being too excited to see the final result!



Moving on to Game Day pictures:

My Rally Monkey didn't make it to the game, 
  she had other engagements. I forgot her :(


Mike Trout!

And the Angel's won, until next time  Trout!
