 This is two coats of Night Rider.  I have the corresponding eyeshadow, too, which I kind of never wear because it's a bit of a hot mess.  Flakes of shimmer gone wild, all over my face.  :)

 Night Rider a flakie-ish shimmer that reflects various pastel colors in the right lighting (as in, not the lighting you see here on an overcast day).

 I had had this on for all of about 12 hours when I got several chips!  Unacceptable, Nation, unacceptable.

 Let's take a look at my new most favorite polish!

 This is Leighton Denny Your Planet or Mine.

 I ordered it along with a few others from the Leighton Denny website here.

 I actually wore this polish nearly three times in a row, rather unintentionally!  It's beauty is indescribable.  

 The pictures here are from three different and separate applications.  Most are shown at three coats, some at two.  It's very opaque and wearable at two coats, if applied thoughtfully.

 The application was easy, although I do think the formula could lend itself to bubbling if you rush through or don't use Seche Vite for your last coat.

 The shifts in color from green, to blue, to purple, are all so incredibly vivid and just awe-inspiring.  Sometimes the edges take on an almost reddish blackened appearance, giving such depth and regality.

 This polish is pure joy and love for me!  I first saw it featured on Lipglossiping here, and instantly knew I had to have it.

 I took so many pictures of this over the course of several days, yet still can't say that I'm satisfied with most of them.  I just think this is one that you really have to see in person to fully appreciate.

 This glittah is off the hook!

 I used two coats of Leighton Denny Big Bang.

 On top, I used a coat of Gelous, two coats of the new top coat from Cult Nails, and a coat of Poshe after that!  This be a crazy top coat eatin' polish.  It still wasn't perfectly smooth then, but almost.  :)

 My dry time was actually pretty good.  And the wear was good as well.  This polish smells really potent!  Also, application was definitely tricky.  I felt like I was carefully applying cement to my nails.

 Now for the fun part!  I'm going to describe to you what is actually going on in this polish.  Looks like black and silver only, right?  Wrong.

 The base of the polish is either clear or possibly just slightly purple tinted.  I believe it's clear, based on application.  There is tons of sequin-like sparkly black glitter in there, as well as silver, of course, but also lots of pale pink glitter!  And there is very sporadic holo light blue glitter speckled throughout, too!

 Here are a few quick swatches I did back in July?  I think.  I thought you might like something to tide you over through the duration of my time wearing the Sally Hansen ghosties!  (The ghosties did come off tonight, by the way.)

 Above is Nars Vestale, a Nordstrom exclusive from the anniversary sale.  I don't remember how many coats, to be honest.  It was two or three, but I'm leaning toward just two.  :)

 Here is Sephora by OPI My Personal Serpent from this year's Fall collection.  This was either one or two coats because this polish is surprisingly very opaque.

 Here is Lippmann Billionaire.  Two or three coats - I'm not sure.  Sorry!

 And last but not least, Lippmann Stormy Weather.

 Wednesday I put on the Sally Hansen Salon Effects nail appliques in Ghoulie Girl.  These pictures are from that day.

 For some crazy reason I always apply and place the stickers much more precisely and evenly on my right hand (not shown)!  Totally bizarre since I am right handed.

 They remind me of Pac-Man ghosts, kind of.

 They are super cute and fun!  I'm really enjoying wearing them.  I do have a few little dings and chips by now, but nothing especially heinous.

 I've had OPI Yokohama Twilight (from Japan) for a while and have wanted to try it but never got around to it until now!

 I layered one coat of Yokohama Twilight over two coats of Zoya Caitlin, which proved to be a really great pairing.

 Caitlin is just lovely on her own and the application was most excellent.

 I was worried that Yokohama Twilight would be too sheer for me on its own.

 I have to say that I'm really happy with how these pictures turned out - all 800 of them (just kidding).

 Also, dare I say, this mani was even more beautiful in person!?

 The duochrome shift is nicely visible from blue, to purple, to pink.

 And the shimmer in the sun is just mesmerizing!

 I'm pretty sure Yokohama Twilight is fairly hard to find these days.  I ordered mine from Doll Up Nails, which is also where I got all my glitterbomb Estessimo TiNS from.

 At first I wasn't feeling this combo for some reason.  It felt dated and grandmother-ish to me!  Then, I really grew to love it and was very sad to see it go.

 I'm trying to capture the pink shift in the horribly awkward photo above.  It's more easily seen in real life.  Gosh, my fingers look mutant!

 I ended up cracking it after a day (or was it two?).  I used 2012 Prayer, which I got at a local Walgreens.  I've only seen those Crackles at a few Walgreens - definitely not all of them.  They have a ton of great colors that all seem to have Christian themed names.

 Here is three coats of Diamond Cosmetics Moonsand.

 It's a lovely gray-silver-blue foil polish.

 It totally feels moon inspired to me!  Friday I was wearing my Dior Moonlight quint eyeshadows and felt all kinds of moon-ish.

 I'm currently on day four of this mani and despite a little tip wear and two small chips, it's holding up pretty well!
