4 of 4 past mani updates - Here Comes Trouble

This is the last of my current Orly (or as my fiance calls it 'Oh Really') collection, Here Comes Trouble!

with flash

natural cloudy lighting

i felt like yelling HULK SMASH all day long :)

Layered over China Glaze Lime Light

3 of 4 past mani updates - Bubbly Bombshell

Sparkly purply pink glitter madness!!!!!

Photobucket

Layered over Color Club Gimme a Grape Big Kiss.... which is a STRONG smell.
I really don't know how to describe the color, but the look is awesome!

2 of 4 past mani updates - Celeb City

This one is Sally Hansen Celeb City. I love foils, especially silver, copper, and gold ones. Celeb City is nice, but a little more "glittery" than, say, Zoya Trixie.

The red is the reflection of my shirt lol

1 of 4 past mani updates - Halleys Comet

Hi, as mentioned before, I've been ill and very overworked. This is my first free moment for over a week and I'm still not technically free.

This is my second attempt at the houndstooth/diagonal mani with Orly Halley's Comet and WnW Black Creme

Photobucket

Still not perfect, but the image plates i have are too small

Skinfood...awful name, wonderful polish

bonjour, mes amis!

Yeah, I haven't posted in =a few days but i've been busy plus my compute=r is being a huge bitch. If you see a bunch of rando=m equals signs its because my compu=ter seems to =think that i want them posted everywhere. I spilled coffee on my computer weeks ago, and for a while that button wouldn't work at all, now it won't stop inserting them wherever it pleases... which is everywhere, especially if i use the backspace button.

So i'm leaving them in because if i try to remove them, it will only try to add more and i will throw the damn thing out the wind=ow and s=et i=t on fire.

So i'll be playing a little bit of catch-up w=ith= you=.

A few days ago I gave in to the tempt=atio=n of my new Skinfoods. 612 Cappuccino Gold

=Photobucket

omg isn't it beautiful? It is so amazing! I would describe the color as a blackened gold and the finish is a foil.
========
For whatever reason i didn't take pictures, but I put my new OPI Turquoise Shatter over it and the results were beautiful and a bit subtle.

Skinfood is a Korean brand and there is a website you can attempt to buy them off of (however, even when browseing on the English site, it still gave me mostly korean)++===================================================== (see this ridiculous crap with the equals button???)+===
There IS a store in California apparently, but I'm nowhere near Cali, so I had to resort to Ebay. I recommend this color!!! Find it however you can :)+===================================================================================

Tape mani with Teal of Fortune

Today's NOTD is Wet n Wild Teal of Fortune with Black Creme

Photobucket

I love the color of ToF, but it gives me some serious VNL. Ew. This was the only picture i could take where it wasn't really obvious. You'd never look at it and think it was a jelly... Its a dupe of Zoya Charla (and OPI Catch Me in Your Net, among others).

Hard Candy Beetle

Today's NOTD is Hard Candy Beetle.

Now, when HC was sold at Sephora, I was a huge fan of their cute and unique products, and i never went anywhere without my Take Out kit (which broke, as a result).

When I saw them in Wal Mart, I freaked out and got all excited and bought various products, returned about half (seriously. I would get them home and they were pure awful.) so I wasn't too keen on trying their nail polish. At the time there weren't any amazing standout colors, and I was still kind of a polish snob, only buying OPI or high-end brands.

Well... MUA has a way of breaking me down about polish. When you see tons of people raving about a polish they bought for a dollar, and everyone else wants it, you get curious.

In comes Beetle.

ooooooooooooooooooh!

Sorry about the ugly shape of my nails, they're just weird.

Beetle is a burgundy/gold/green duochrome flash that also exhibits some lovely shimmer :)
