NOTD: Color Club Worth The Risque

Very pretty holo. Not particularly unique, but I love all holos :)

NOTD: OPI DS Extravagance

I remember this being really popular when it was released, and I can definitely see why. I think it's a very unique polish and absolutely gorgeous. I recommend you grab it if you get the chance!

NOTD: China Glaze Tickle My Triangle

Nice job on the naming again, ChG.... The polish is lovely though. I love my holos.

NOTD: China Glaze Lets Do It In 3D

Oh you China Glaze and your dumb ass names for nail polish. At least the polish itself is gorgeous. A scattered dark grey holo. Beautiful.

NOTD: Color Club Revvvolution

This is a really cool black/grey holo. Love it.

NOTD: Nfu-Oh #65

I have yet to find a nail polish more holographic than the Nfu-Ohs. They are the most gorgeous polishes I have ever seen. They are also a pain to apply, and they don't wear very well, but I'm ok with that.

Just look at that holo!

I've wanted this one forever, so I had to wear it right away. <3

NOTD: China Glaze Tickle My Triangle

China Glaze holos. Does it get any better? I doubt it.

NOTD: OPI DS Ruby

Another OPI, another wonky ProWide brush.... great. While I like the ProWide brush, it gets REALLY hard to use when hairs are sticking out at random angles. The polish itself is lovely. It's a very glossy pinkish red with subtle holo. I used three coats, but two would probably have been enough.

NOTD: China Glaze L8R G8R

I don't think there is a single polish from the OMG collection that I don't love. This collection was in my not very humble opinion the best collection since... I dunno... 1879 or something like that. It's simply fabulous. I love a smooth, bright holo and the OMGs are just that. L8R G8R is an amazing green holo. It took three coats to look good, but then it does not look good... it looks AWESOME. Behold the power of the holo:


I did my pedi today. I live in a cold climate so my feet are hidden most of the year (believe me, that's a good thing). I used SpaRitual She's a River and it totally looked like my Zombie Pearl franken! No pictures cause my feet are hideous.

NOTD: China Glaze Spin Me Round

Well. When saving pictures of this, I realized that I'd already worn AND photographed it. Oh well, you can't wear poop brown holos too often! It's a nice polish too. Good application and nice scattered holo. I'm posting two pictures since both suck.

NOTD: Color Club Fashion Addict

Color Club have a couple of really pretty holos in their spring collections. This one is from the Catwalk Queen Collection. It applied really well in two smooth coats. It reminds me a little of Nfu-Oh #63 and #64, but the Nfu-Ohs are brighter.

NOTD: OPI DS Divine

After my experience with the Sally Hansen (Satan's favorite polish) I decided to go for a polish that I knew would be a joy to apply. OPI's Designer series has never disappointed, and Divine was no exception. It lives up to its name!


Mmmmmm, bling!

NOTD: Happy New Year with Mandy's Franken Polish

Ahhh, so today is the end of 2008. I've had a really great year with a new job, we bought a house, and I finally managed to start a blog! I've meet so many great people through this blog and through the nail polish and makeup forums I post on. Thank you to everyone who has left comments and read my crazy (typo filled) ramplings. Love ya'll :)

Since today is the last day of 2008 I wanted to wear something "blingy". I recieved the perfect polish in the mail not long ago. It's a "Franken Polish" made by mixing several different polishes... sort of like:
just better looking. Since it's made from different polishes; it didn't have a name. I've named it after its creator - Mandy. Mandy is a light purple with holographic glitter. The picture doesn't really show the holographic effect on the nail, but check out the bottle!

NOTD: Happy Holo-days with Nfu-Oh #63

Happy Holo-days (or "Holo-day actually)!

Today is Happy Holo-days on Makeupalley's nail board. It pretty much just means a lot of people (including yours truly) are wearing holos. My holo is Nfu-Oh #63. I adore the Nfu-Oh holos. The application is utterly terrible, but they just look sooooo good on. They are without any doubt the most holographic polishes I own.
#63 is very similar to #64. I think you'd have to wear them next to each other to notice the difference. Obviously the holo effect on both is amazing. Close up:

NOTD: China Glaze Spin Me Round - Holographic Diarrhea?

Gross title, right? Well, that's pretty much what this looked like with one coat. I was shocked. SHOCKED! Fortunately after adding another two coats it looked a lot less poopy. In fact; I sort of like it. It's not quite as pretty as China Glaze FYI which is also a light brown holo, but it's still nice :)

NOTD Epic Fail with OPI My Private Jet and You Don't Know Jaques

If you are a member of the Makeupalley Nail Care Board you might know about the "My Private Jet Day" this month. Every member of the board was supposed to wear the polish (if they felt like it) and post pictures of their mani or pedi. I didn't own My Private Jet, so I had to order it.

Fail #1 was when it didn't arrive in time for "My Private Jet Day". I filed it in my stash, but after my You Don't Know Jaques mani began to show signs of wear; I figured layering it with MPJ would look great (one of the girls did it for MPJ Day). Well, fail #2, my bottle of MPJ is the lame version. It exists in two versions: a beautiful holo version and a lame glitter version. Mine is the lamo one. Well, it still looks nice over YDKJ. I think the non-holo version might be a little more brown. I like that.

NOTD Nfu-Oh #64, now that's a holo!

My NOTD is Nfu-Oh #64. It's a beautiful pink/purple holo (click on pics 2 and 3 to see bigger versions). This is 3 coats:Application was a bit of a pain. Like with the ChG OMG collection you need to work fast, and not go over the previous coat before it is COMPLETELY dry. All my troubles were worth it though. I love this look:
I'm even giving you a bonus pic of my freakishly large thumb:
