Diet Vlogs and Blogs

Ok so now that I'm not sick (great way to start the new year!::rolls eyes::) I am going to get stared with my New Years Resolution to lose 35 lbs. My goal is to either be 125lbs or a size 5. What ever comes first. I don't want to look like a skeleton but I do want to be healthier and look thinner. I mean as you guys know I am engaged now so I have to look BANGIN in my wedding dress lol. I am going to do the SpecialK diet with ambersaurus on YouTube ( http://www.youtube.com/user/ambersaurus )I think it should be easy. The hard part will be going to the gym. I am now assistant manager at work so a had a ton of hour piled on. But I'm happy about that. I'll be walking around a lot more so that works in well. I'm going to be adding a new segment to my channel called ShayedAway. It is going to be my weight loss Vlog. I hope you all enjoy it.

Ok ok ok!!! Hello everyone! This is going to be my first official Blog post for you guys!I am going to give a list of all of the colors that I have. Separated by brand. I will post a video on my YouTube channel with swatches of all of the colors.


~~~VIDEO BEING EDITED!~~~



First up Orly! Yay! Lol. So the first color I bought of Orly was 'Dazzle'. Dazzle is this insanely beautiful and intensely pigmented silver polish! I'm not sure how to describe it. It is kinda a mix of a pearl/metallic/glittery/shimmery color. It's odd lol. But wonderful. The Orly bottles are .6fl oz/18 ml. This makes an amazing Christmas color! I think everyone should own this polish!

Next up is 'Liquid Vinyl'! I think the name pretty much says it all. It's a pretty shiny black that is great for an everyday polish. That's right I said everyday! Shit I would wear it everyday lol. Idk what to say about this color really but that it has great color payoff!





Moving on to Finger Paints. These colors are so amazing. The bottles are .5fl oz/15ml. The first color I bought was 'Papier Mache'. This is a white polish with kick ass color payoff. I've always wanted a white polish but was never impressed when I swatched them in the store. But when I swatched this polish I was so impressed. You don't need a crapload of coats to get the color you want! It's flat color but had great shine.

The second color I have from Finger Paints is 'It's An Original'. This polish is my favorite color of all time...PURPLE!!! Heehee yay! It's a pearl polish that just blows me away! It is a kind of grape color...and yeah just get it it ROCKS! Lol. Helpful huh!?

'Icy Iris' is a color from the 09 Holiday collection. It is a super pretty Amethysty grape purple glitter polish. This color just blows me away. I wish they would make this permanent. Because I would wear this everyday. I should go pick up a few more...

'Decked With Dazzle' is a glittery burgundy with a little more pink in it. This is another color from the 09 Holiday collection. Great for girly girls.

Now one color that I don't think I could live with out now that I've found it is 'Evergreen Dream' This is yet another color from the 09 Holiday collection. It is a Christmas glittery Emerald green. I don't know how I've gone so long without this color. Uh love it! Go buy this or I'll be mad at you lol! This is my favorite green.

And the last Finger Paints color is the last color I bought from the 09 Holiday collection. 'Candy Cane Shimmer' is just that it's a shimmery, slightly glittery candy cane red that will pop! Everyone will be asking you what nail polish you are wearing!





Now moving on the the brand that I have the most of. I bet you can all guess what that is! CHINA GLAZE! I love this brand of nail polish! The bottles are .5 fl oz/14ml. These polishes have a natural nail hardener in them! How great is that!? So lets get crackin on the colors shall we!?

The first color that I want to talk about is one of my favorites. It's not a color I get to use very often but I SO wish I could. The colors I am talking about is 'Solar Power'. Solar Power is a beautiful shimmery yellow color. It kinda reminds me of a hippy yellow. Idk why but I love it for that fact. Another great thing is that you don't need a bunch of coats to get the color you want from this color either!

'Twenty-Four K'is a yellow gold. I love this color so damn much. When I saw this color I wanted to go "Wow" but I didn't wanna seem crazy and talk to myself in the store lol. So I said it inside. This is a color that if you don't won I am just sad for you lol.

Now I don't have many green nail polishes but it has become a goal to but as many as I can lol. However I do have two colors that make me extremely happy. One of them is called 'Tree Hugger'. Not too Hippy sounding lol. It is a light leaf color. Hence the name Tree Hugger. This color is perfect for Halloween, St. Patrick's day and Christmas!

Speaking of Christmas another green color is 'Watermelon Rind' Now this color is one of the few glitter polishes that I have. As we all know glitter polishes are a pain in the ass to get off sometimes...and I'm not sure if it is worth it owning this color. It looks just like what it is called. It is a darker Pine green. This is another color you don't need a lot of coats of.

Going more with Christmas...Lol 'Emerald Sparkle' is a More glittery version of the Finger Paints color 'Evergreen Dreams' Only the China Glaze color is a little brighter.

Looking for a sexy metallic polish with a subtle color? Then ' Metallic Muse' is the color you are looking for. this is an amazing Shimmery metallic mint green color. However in some lights it may look a little blueish. If you want to kick up an outfit with some glam then get your hands on 'Metallic Muse'!

Now I'm not sure is you could count this a a Green or a blue. So I'm going to throw it in the middle. What am I throwing in the middle? 'Turned Up Turquoise'! This is a pretty pretty that kinda remind me of a mermaid. Need I say more? I think not. NEXT!

Next is the infamous 'For Audrey'. Idk if I should even bother telling you about this color because it seems like EVERYONE already owns it lol. Well it is a flat light powdery cloud kinda blue. It seems like a color that everyone would like.

Okey dokey now we are up to a polish with a super sexy name, 'Shower Together'. This is a dirty(but pretty) looking blue. Shower Together has the same finish as For Audrey. It is kind of a darker version of it...I'm not gonna BS ya Idk how to explain it. That is what pictures are for I guess! Lol

Wanna be 'Sexy In The City'? Well you can if you get ya swagga from the Sexy In The City nail polish by China Glaze!...Wow that was corney as hell. Lol. This is a shimmery Medium blue with a slight undertone of Turquoise. Great color and another must buy.

Now a color that is just a kick richer then the last is 'Blue Sparrow'. It is a glittery ocean blue. You are gonna love love looooove this color. I strongly suggest you buy this color.

The last real blue color from China Glaze I have is 'Frostbite' If you buy ANY blue polish from China Glaze make it this one. It is a very beautiful, patriotic blue. Perfect for the 4th of July or Christmas! This is a stunning color let me tell ya! Want it? OF COURSE YOU DO! SO...GO GET IT! Lol. Definitely in my top 10.

Another in between color is 'Tempest'. Tempest is a deep blurple color. Lol no that's not a spelling error. I was mixing blue and purple. But now it's not funny because I had to explain it...Sad. Ok so anyway. I think it's a blue with a purple tint. Or the other way around. Hell all I know is it is the PERFECT in between pearl color, and yet another MUST buy.

Up next is another glitter nail polish, 'Grape Juice'. This is a dirty deeper purple with intense silver glitter. Like I've said before. Glitter is a pain in the ass sometimes but this polish is worth the trouble.

Going with the glitter polish talk I'm going to now talk about 'Flying Dragon' This is a pretty grape colored purple with a bunch of pinkish purple glitter mixed with a turquoisey glitter. Super duper purdy! And a little less of a pain then the other glitter polishes.

Now I think this color is my all time favorite nail polish color...yep it is! I am of course talking about the wonderful 'Coconut Kiss'! It is the same color as my birthstone, Amethyst! It is a crazy pretty pearl color that if you don't buy we shall be in a fight lol. Great color payoff! Last a long while!

One of my favorites is a color called 'Reggae To Riches'.This is a purpley pink color with a pretty blue shimmer to it! It reminds me of a purple cranberry color with a blue kick. Totally awesome polish!

I was looking at purples and when I saw 'Spontaneous' I couldn't figure out why I passed this color up the first time I picked it up. I was just being stupid I guess lol. Sponaneous is a flat dirty plum color. If you put the Matte Magic over it OMG!

'Awakening' is a purple on fire! No for real that's what it looks like! It's a burgundy with a intense amount of gold shimmer too it. I would say the gold is over whelming but it's really kinda not...Lol. I think the amounts blend perfectly!

So on to the reds. These are all must have colors all 4 of them. So before I write anything else I'm going to tell you to just go and buy these. You will feel so sexy in them. I promise! The first red polish is names after me(j/k) and it is called 'Short & Sassy'(Get it? Haha I'm funny!). It is a sexy deep crimson red with sexy shimmer. You will feel like a total sex kitten in this one!

Let's now talk about 'Skate Night', and ooh lala is this color sexy. It's a very sultry, shimmery candy apple red. This is the kind of red every girl looks for in undergarments! Lol. You'll just wanna purrrrr while wearing this polish.

Brightening it up a notch is 'Thunderbird'. Seriously all you need to do is look at his and know they are so right with linking this to a Thunderbird. This is a gorgeous ruby red. It is a rich jeweled tone that makes one think of true love...Wow that was sappy lol.

Another one that I am pretty sure everyone already owns is 'Ruby Pumps'. Ruby Pumps is the ultimate Christmas red! It is another China Glaze glitter polish. Just like I said so many time already it is WAY worth it even though glitter sucks! It makes this color look so enchanting!

I'll let you in on something. I love koi. I have always wanted one and I love the story of it swimming up stream, over coming adversity and blah blah. Just everything about them. There is just so much that is amazing about koi. China Glaze realized the same I guess and make a color called 'Japanese Koi'. Japanese Koi is a bright ass neon orange color. Honestly there is just no way to explain to you how killer this color is so...PICTURE!!!

Almost done guys! Lol no I'm just kidding there's a crapload more....anywho! 'Jamaican Out'?! lol. Yep this is a wicked cool looking orange color! It's a pretty orange with a peach shimmer. It is barely noticeable but in the light you can see it.

HIPPY ORANGE! Yeah I said it... Uh... 'Free Love' is a pretty shimmery hippy orange color. It's almost a burnt orange but its a little too bright to be a true burnt color. Free Love has a golden peach shimmer to it that makes this color unbelievably gorgeous. It is perfect for fall. I think this would be a kick as Halloween color also.

Moving down me have a peachy orange called 'Thataway'. I'm not sure but I think this is China Glazes lightest orange. I could be wrong though(shocker there right!? lol) It is a shimmery polish that just pops out and you and begs you to buy it.

Now as we all know I'm not a fan of pink...but there are some needs to have pink nail polish so I bought a few just for the hell of it. The first is a pink with a purple hint to it called 'Purple Panic' Its a very bright color but not insanely bright. I wanna say it's kinda like a berry pink.

Now 'Rich & Famous' on the other hand is a little brighter. It's ALMOST neon but not really. It's kinda like a shimmery Pepto-Bismoly bubblegum pink. perfect for any girlie girl.

Ok so this next color is pink yes but I love it! It's name is 'Exceptionally Gifted'. This is a pretty light shimmery almost baby pink pearl color. This would make a great everyday color for even the biggest tomboy! Pretty is pretty no matter what way you look at it.

'Love Letters' is a VERY sheer natural peachy pink color. If you wanted to do a french manicure then you want to get this color. It kinda looks like a milky pink lemonade in the bottle. On your nails it barely shows up. No shimmer or sparkle just a nice plain color for Manis.

Lol ok so a color that when I looked at online made me think"...Uh yea ew" is 'Unplugged' But when I say it in the store and I swatched it I fell in love with it. It is a beautiful Shimmery Chocolate brown. It makes me want a candy bar so bad! Lol. Unplugged is an amazing fall color that I think everyone needs to try! It would so with any Brown, tan, peach, orange, gold outfits you may wear. I also love how you don't need a lot to get the color you see it as in the bottle.

You really will be 'In Awe Of Amber' when you see this color! In Awe Of Amber is a enchanting golden caramel color. It is supper shimmery and will Go amazing with Unplugged. I wear them together with In Awe Of Amber on the tip of my nail with Unplugged as the main color. It sounds funny but try it. Or if you do the water drop trick it looks stunning! It is a warm golden color that is a must have.

Ok you guys I'ma school you on how to say the name of this next color and what the name is from and what it means and blah blah blah. 'Chiaroscuro' is said (kee-are-os-CURE-oh) .It is a term in art for a contrast between light and dark. This color is a Complex color with sort of peachy, pinkish caramel brown hue to it. It has beautiful aqua shimmer and will confuse the hell out of you on how to describe it lol. If you don't own this color you HAVE TO go out and but it.

' Camisole' is a color that is a little tough to describe also. It is a light shimmery color that is sort of a peachy creme with a subtle hint of a golden hue. This is a favorite and also a must have. This color has great payoff and is a great everyday and a great special occasion color.

'Golden Meringue' is a Light almost neutral golden tan color with stunning shimmer to it. I just could not get over the beauty of this color when I first saw it. If you want an everyday nail polish with a punch of glamor them go out and buy they little treasure. You may just want to buy more them one at a time. Slightly sheer but who gives a shit::shrugs::

A color that I have found that EVERY CHILD loves is 'Rainbow' lol. It is a beautiful pearl color that has a adorably beautiful pinky purple in the shimmer. This would be a great all over color for a bride if purple is in her wedding. Everyone will be amazed when they see this.

Silver is Shaye's Best friend! I love me some Diamonds but Sliver and White gold make me gitty! So you better believe when I saw 'Millennium' I almost geeked out! It is the perfect silver! Or at least as far as I'm concerned. It is a pear silver with a metallic shimmer to it. Uh just...go get it. Just go lol.

'Avalanch is a kick ass purple silver. It's a shimmery almost metallic color and it looks great either as is or with a matte topcoat.

And last but not least is 'Liquid Leather'. Sound kinda familiar? It's similar to the Finger Paints color Liquid Vinyl but not as good. Is takes a few more coats then the Finger Paints black polish. It's a nice back up but I would go with the other one. The think that kinda makes it tough is that the China Glaze black has the nail hardener in it. But the look isnt as nice. So take what you will from this lol.
