Are you dizzy with excitement about nail polish?

 Shame on me for posting such crummy pictures of such a fantastic polish!!  EEK!
 This is two coats of Chanel Taboo, a gloriously beautiful and shimmery vampy purple.
 Application was easy, although it was getting thick on the second coat, so I could see it needing a few drops of thinner next time around.
 I absolutely love this.  It's just so pretty.  It has blue, red, shimmer, and deep purple components - some of my very favorites.
I hope to wear it again soon and take some worthy pictures for you all (including bottle shots, no less!).

 Hello friends!  I've been enjoying a little vacation time.  It's not officially over yet, but I thought it was time for an update.  This is OPI Have You Seen My Limo?
 I regret not getting better pictures of it.  I also am annoyed that my tips peek out white, just a tiny bit.  I didn't wrap them and my top coat shrunk ever so slightly.  Thankfully, it was not so noticeable in person.
 I can't recall if I did three or four coats here, but I had no trouble with application.  The color is really unique and different from what I had expected.  It's more plummy brown that I had thought it would be!  I guess from all the pictures I've seen before, I expected a cooler toned purply gray sort of color.
It is beautiful and I really like it.  I'm glad I was able to find it in a nail supply store sometime during the past year.

 Prepare yourself for too many pictures of this one!
 Also, my apologies for not getting proper bottle shots of all the polishes involved.
 Okay, so are you wanting to know what I used for this?
 I started with Cult Nails Nevermore.  Then I added a coat of Ozotic Pro 528.
 After that, I used Lynnderella Bride of Franken for extra blue iridescence.
 The last polish I added was Lynnderella Shape Shifter (newer version).
 I finished with two coats of Gelous (three even just on one nail where a star glitter was in a precarious and poky position) and then Sephora X top coat.
I enjoyed wearing this so so much.  One of my all time favorites easily!!  It wore very well, too, much to my happiness.  I want to say it was on for a good week!  :)

 I've been mildly obsessed with Illamasqua Purity as of late.  I just love how it looks on me.
 I'm pretty sure you've seen it here before - now you'll see it again with Lynnderella Ice the Snowcake over top!  I adore this combo.
 I used 1-2 coats of Ice the Snowcake, using brush stroke movements as well as dabbing.  Mostly the glitters were well behaved - only once did I have trouble with them wanting to clump up on each other.
As I recall, I used two coats of Gelous and then finished with Sephora X top coat.  Not perfectly smooth, but super shiny and good enough for me!  :)  I wonder if I'll ever tire of Purity.

 Here is Pahlish Your Lover is an Actress over black.
 I used one coat of Cult Nails Nevermore (dare I say, my new favorite black), one coat of YLiaA, a coat of Gelous, and then Sephora X top coat.
 I started with base coat, too, of course.  I always use base coat, even when I don't mention it.  The base coat of choice these days has been Sephora X.
 Okay, so this stunning polish has a deep purple jelly base which gets lost over the black.  That's okay, though.  I needed a quick and easy way to wear it and this did the trick just fine for me.
 Application was easy and the glitters were well behaved.  I love how it looks so jeweled!
What would you wear it over?  Or would you be a purist and just wear it by itself?  :)

 This is two coats of Orly Miss Conduct.
 It's such a happy, cheery color.
 The scattered holo effect is quite beautiful!
 And just to speed up my super slow attempt at catching up - here is another one for you!  Misa Grey Matters.
 I believe this was two coats also.
 I had no troubles with application on either.  Easy breezy!
The tiny speckles make it interesting for sure.

 Time for some BLING.  This is Nars Disco Inferno with OPI Which is Witch?
 I used three coats of Disco Inferno and made sure to let each coat dry just a bit before moving onto the next (I've learned that sheer shimmers like to bubble on me if I rush them).
 I would have done four coats of Disco Inferno if I was going to wear it on its own, but since I layered Which is Witch? over top, it was good enough at three.
 One coat of OPI Which is Witch?, a coat of Gelous, and a coat of Sephora X top coat finished it off.
 I don't usually like glitters over any metallic looking sort of polishes, but this one works pretty good I think.  It's just fun to have the duochrome and the holo glitters together!
I'm trying to catch up on my posts.  I feel like I'm so far behind!  Wish me luck.  :)

This Is Me!

My Photo
I love color, beauty, creativity, animals, and being care-free. I'm not care-free, in reality, but would like to think it's an attainable state of being! I do like to bend the rules when it serves a greater purpose and I'm all about being authentic. Here I am, take me or leave me! I suppose I'd call myself a sensitive soul. I think I feel things more deeply and ponder things more thoroughly than your average bear.
