End of 2013 Blog Post!~ You Polish~ DiverCity

Hey everyone!! Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!!! Hope you all had a great Christmas and have a wonderful new year!

I am excited for what 2014 will bring (especially in the polish world). So, to get there let me give you my last Blog Post for the Year!! This post I asked you on my facebook page is you thought it was a holo, jelly or matte polish!

 WELLLL..... It's a holo! A custom holo none the less! It is from You Polish! Now Lauren and I didn't name it but I am going to name it now, it is called: DiverCity, pronounced as Diversity,  (if you have ever heard of Toby Mac's song, you'll understand). This polish is a diversity of a polish! It is a linear holo that I had custom from Lauren! Who did do an awesome job!

When I looked at this polish in person, the name DiverCity came to me right away, it shifts to an undertone of pink, purple and a red! When I asked Lauren for a red linear holo (more like Crimson) this is how it came out! Which is perfectly fine! Here let me show you this stunning polish!








As you can see here, you can see the undertone of pink but also the red!

Even better shot of what you can see of the undertone of pink and the red!


Unfortunately, we ended up having no sun today, this is without flash outside. I see a rosy color along with the red peeking out! Still a stunning color! 

An outside with flash (Really wished the sun was out today, it is the sunshine state afterall).


I don't know about you but I'm seeing hints of undertone of the purple! It is more apparent to the eye, than the pictures. (Inside Flash)


(Inside no flash), ah red!!


This color is an amazing polish and stunning to say the least! And I love love love linear holo's so this tops it right there! Lauren did a great job with communicating with me and trying to get as close as possible that I wanted in a polish!

This went on in two coats topped with KBShimmer topcoat, this polish went on smooth and actually it could go on with just one coat (but I always play the safe side of things). I can't wait to get more holo's from Lauren at You Polish, as matter of fact, her January box has her new holo's and new labels. SO, I'm expecting that soon!!! I have a love for You Polish that is undescribable. I have loved her work for a long time now!

If you have no idea who or what she does check her out at www.youpolish.com OR her facebook page at

I can't wait for 2014 to start and have a brand new year to start in the polish world, and who knows my post just may not be about polishes! Are any of you into scarfs? Just wondering! I hope you ALL have a wonderful and joyous holiday! Hope you got wonderful gifts and family time!!! Happy New Year and see you in 2014!

Until then, Keep Polishin' and Colorful!!!

Ho Ho Ho

Ho, Ho, Ho! Its that wonderful time of year again!

I have posted on Facebook as you probably saw, that I'm challenging myself to do a Christmas/Winter Theme once a week, this may include on accent nail with the theme or all nails (we'll see how creative I can be).

Today I bring you the first one! I used Zoya on all this mani. You'll see Zoya Hunter, Purity, Solange, and Chyna!

I call this mani~ Holly 


As you all probably know, Zoya is my favorite brand of all brands out there! Well, I had no issues using Zoya's at all. All polishes went on smoothly! And I topped Zoya Armor topcoat! Well, I just wanted to blog about this mani and let ya'll know what is going on in Mani's Desires world!

Hope you all have a great Dec., no worries there will be more blogs this month (since I do have the challenge).

If you are where it is snowing and nasty winter weather be safe and careful!!

Until later! Keep Polishin' and Colorful!
