Crackle Glaze Review

A special thanks to my friend Charlotte for being my gopher on trying out the polish! Okay, I only used two of the Crackle Glazes by China Glaze and they seemed to work pretty good! The thing about these polishes is that you have to make sure your base coat is 100% dry otherwise it doesn't work near as well. So far it works best on the Sally Hansen Insta Dry. I used Broken Hearted(pink crackle) and Crushed Candy(blue crackle) and loved them. You have to put them on some what thin to get a good crackle otherwise it wont separate too much. Also if you put it infront of a fan it cracks faster and much more prominent than if you just air dry. Over all I was pleased with the Crackle Glaze.

Remember request are always welcome!!!

PIKACHU!

Pikachu nails! for those who don't know Pikchu is a pokemon that resembles a mouse and uses lightning and is super cute! Super easy design. I used Sally Hansen Insta Dry nail polish in the color Lightning. I LOVE the Insta Dry polish it looks good and has a sheen without a top coat if you're in a hurry. I'm not sure if I like the style of brush its really flat and wide. I've used the flatter brushes in the Sally Hansen Xtreme Wear but the Insta Dry are really flat. I will do a review later and show what the brushes look like! Anyway back to the Pikachu nails. I used Kiss Nail Art in Black for the eyes nose and mouth. The white on the eyes I used Sally Hansen Insta Dry in the color Whirlwind White and finally for the red cheeks I used Sinful Colors in the color Ruby Ruby. Super easy to do and really cute! I use toothpicks to do the design. Hope you like it!

Remember Request are always welcome!!!

Feel free to give me a request and I'll try to do it!!!

my influences

There has been a lot that has influenced me. I cant say that just one thing has but probably books are what have done the most for me. Books are my escape from stress and allow me to relax and enjoy life. I've read a lot of books that help boost self esteem and I feel like those have made me become a better and stronger person. I appreciate the little things a lot more rather than I used to. Even in fiction books I learn from the characters and find strength in them. The one book that I can say has influenced me the most, is the bible. I read it as much as I can, I have an actual bible and then I have it also on my kindle. I can honestly say that after I read the bible, it makes me feel good and happy.

Phobias!

So I'm with my friend Audrianna and she is doing a power point presentation on phobias. I love psychology and considering it is my major it makes sense. So I decided to do a blog about interesting phobias! By no means am I making fun of people who actually have these phobias, I find these interesting and if you have one that I list I'm sorry if I offend you.

The first phobia is called Walloonphobia- Fear of the Walloons. Okay so i saw this and laughed so hard. WHAT IS A WALLOON!? A Walloon is apparently a person who lives in Wallonia in Belgium. I honestly would like to know who actually has these phobias!
The second phobia is Psellismophobia- Fear of stuttering. This one is pretty self explanatory.
The next phobia is Automatonophobia- Fear of ventriloquist's dummies, animatronic creatures, wax statues - anything that falsly represents a sentient being. This one I kinda have, I wouldn't say that I'm terrified of ventriloquist dummies and was statues or whatever but the do give me the heebie jeebies! Here is the last one I'll list, Chirophobia- Fear of hands, I find this one odd for the fact that everyone has hands with a few exceptions.

If you would like to see a whole list of phobias here is the a good site for the list http://phobialist.com/

FaeRiina

So my favorite books are books about Faeries. Ever since I read Shakespeare's A Midsummer Nights Dream I have had a fascination with Fae. I first read it when I was a sophomore in High School, and have read it several times since. Most books that have to do with Fae now follow Shakespeare's idea of Faeries. Of course each author adds their own touches and I love to see what people think and seeing the creativity that comes from them.

The next Faerie book I read was Tithe. Tithe is about a girl who is a changeling which basically means when a human had a baby Fae would switch and take the human baby to a faerie realm and put a fae baby into the mortal realm. and she is a Fae and doesn't find out until she is a teen. There are two more books in the Tithe: A Modern Faerie Tale series. Its a darker series about Fae. One thing a lot of people do not realize is most Fae are cruel creatures and are not typically nice to mortals, they are seen as their play things and entertainment.

After I read Tithe I wanted to read more and now I'm in the middle of the Faeriewalker Series, the Frost Series, and the Iron Fae series. I know Fae are completely fictional but all those comics people get into and vampires all that is fictional too! How people are all crazed about Twilight, I am about Faerie books. I read other books than just books about Fae but the ones that have to do with the beautiful yet cruel creatures amaze and interest me like no other!

If anyone would like to know all my books about Fae I have read just comment and I'll do another blog about my favorite Fae books. I might do it anyway but just let me know! Also if you have any suggestions as to books you think I would like let me know! I'm always looking for another good read!

P.S. The title is one of my names I go by such as on xbox live. :)
