SH Oldie- Purple Potion

Ohemgee.
This polish is amazing.
I found this is my friend's bedroom, and she said I could have it. I was a little scared because the bottle is gold, so I had no idea what was inside. And inside was.... magic. An amazing, grey-toned lavender holo? I couldn't believe my eyes.

China Glaze- For Audrey

I love this polish!
This pic isn't very color accurate though. In real life, FA is less neon and more green... along the lines of Sinful Mint Apple. Application was good, this was two coats.

OPI- Gargantuan Green Grape

Hey guys!
This lovely little polish was my first OPI.
And it nearly turned me off OPI forever.. this polish is a downright PITA.
Though it's an amazing color, the application is horrible. Streaks, bald patches, and tip drag galore.

But it's really pretty, isn't it?

CC Revvvvvvvvvvolution with Orly Snowcone Konad

I never remember how many v's this polish has, so I decided to add a few extras just in case.
Anyway, it just got dark here but I was too excited about this one to not take/share pics.

I'm not very good at konad.
Heck, I'm downright awful at konad.
It comes out smeary and off center every time.
Except this one!

I'll post sun pics if I can get some!

As promised, here is a sun pic :)

Emerald Who?

Hey guys :)
I experimented today. I really wanted to see what it would look like if I mixed ChG Emerald Sparkles with her fraternal twin, ChG Dorothy Who? So I did. I love the result!

That's Emerald Sparkles on my index finger, Emerald Who? on my middle, and Dorothy Who? on my ring finger. It looks more like ES in my opinion, but it's still quite pretty :)

Once I get Rupy Pumps (hopefully soon) and a backup of DW, I'll franken those together too.

Holographic Half-Moon

Hey guys :)
Today I attempted to do a half moon mani- my last few have been major failures, so I was hoping this one would work out. And it did!
If you can ignore my frazzle, anyway :)

My ring finger is a bit off, I know, but that's ok.
This is one coat WnW black with Milani Cyberspace over it, and one coat SV.

(I'm not sure why you can't see the holo, it's quite pretty.)

Nail Polish Finishes

Hey guys ;)
I just happened upon this AMAZING post by the lovely Michèle over at Lacquerized.
She took the time to compile a list (complete with pictures) of 25 nail polish finishes. I definitely get confused sometimes, so this was a great resource for me. Check it out!
