Just a quick post of Orly’s Spring 2011 shade “Gilded Coral” since I’ve been wearing it the entire week. I’m not big on frost finish colors but I love this peach-toned gold. I was expecting to do 3 coats for this one but 2 worked just fine. It pays to shop the clearance section of Ulta …I was able to snag this baby for $5! I need to find a Read More ...
Listen to Your Momager! – This vivid royal blue shimmer is stunning. I’m normally not a fan of royal blue since it can look a little ‘hood at times but because of the jelly texture and the way the blue shimmer floats in the polish it makes it very glam-y. 3 coats. Wear Something Spar-Kylie – Rosy pink base choked full of rosy pink glitter. It’s cute a mature Read More ...
China Glaze has seriously done an awesome job with this glitter collection; I love everything about them. I used 2 coats for each swatch and I found (all but one) of the formulas to be perfect, but for wear I would opt for 3 thin coats. The winner (and must-have) of the bunch, “Marry A Millionaire” was slightly goopy but not unbearable. I’d probably thin it out some with a Read More ...
Seems like for at least the past 3 or 4 years Nicole by OPI Holiday Glitters have been a staple in my collection. It never fails, every year I’m impressed by what they put out and to have a glitter that impresses me it kind of a big deal, since I don’t enjoy the removal process. I remember calling Ulta to place them all on hold for me right before Read More ...
Finally, a gold nail polish I can love! I’ve have a hard time wearing gold nail colors because they always make my skin look so blahhh. When I saw MAC “Immortal Gold” nail lacquer at their fall collections unveiling I had to buy it. This is also my first time purchasing a MAC nail lacquer (the others were given as gifts from friends). I’ve read many reviews about MAC nail Read More ...
Pros & Bronze – gold, rose gold, and peachy shimmer. You need this color like your life depends on it. I used three layers for full coverage. This color is so romantic. I can see myself wearing Jessica Simpson “Fancy” perfume when I wear this color. It looks really close to Zoya “Tiffany” but with more yellow gold and pink sparkle. Love Is A Racket – tomato red Read More ...
I bought a bag of gold flakes from the craft store and thought (thought wrong, might I add) that I would use them on my nails. The thumb was how they were all supposed to look but I used too much and didn’t lay the flakes flat enough. The end result was that mess you see in the first two photos. I do plan on trying this again, because I Read More ...
Very random but every time I read “Glam Slam” I start singing “Glamorous” by Fergie. I can’t help it! The song is now stuck in my head. Moving along…tennis super star and manicurist Serena Williams teamed with OPI to bring us another set of limited edition colors for the “Glam Slam!” collection. “Glam Slam! France” is the second set of colors for the 3-part series of collections, all in conjunction Read More ...
I’ll be rolling out the swatches for these collection over the next two days….if not by morning
