NOTD: Sinful #836 Serena & Chloe

This is a very nice summery polish. It warms me up just looking at it. I also like the shimmer and how glossy it is. The pictures is three coats.

NOTD: Nubar Lavender + Sinful #831 Hottie

I really like Nubar Lavender. It's such a pretty soft color. I think it looks quite nice with the Sinful polish on top.

I realize that I didn't quite manage to remove the pink from the last NOTD, but oh well. I don't care enough to go back and fix it :)

NOTD: Sinful #307 Tokyo Doll

I believe this is one of the more popular Sinful Colors. I think it's gorgeous. The pink shimmer is so bright and vibrant.

NOTD: Sinful #56 Pink Diamond

This is such a gorgeous polish. It has a really nice duochrome and gorgeous shimmer as well. I used three coats for complete coverage.

NOTD: Nfu-Oh #173 + Sinful #220 Green Ocean

My Nfu-Oh cremes seem to have seperated, and I can really shake the white color back into the colored polish :( Application is pretty poor too. I don't like the brush shape. I bought these right when Nfu-Oh introduced the creme series. Hopefully they have improved by now.

I decided to spice the manicure up with Sinful Green Ocean which is a more crappy version of the Nfu-Oh flakies:

NOTD: Sinful #21 Scarlet

I quite like this polish. I used two coats and it covered perfectly. A very economic solution if you're looking for a basic (slightly slutty) pink.

NOTD: Sinful #260 Volcanic

Love this Sinful polish! It's just so beautiful and shimmery.
Thank you to everyone for the suggestions on the China Glaze Stone Age polish. I think using it for konad and pedis will work great!

NOTD: Sinful #380 Under The Star

First of all, sorry for the infrequent updates! It's incredibly hot here, and the using polish remover and putting on polish feels sort of icky. I'll have more updates when it cools down a bit.

It's been a while since I've worn a Sinful polish, so I grabbed this pretty, warm pink. It's a little sheer, but I think it's a nice summer polish.

NOTD: Sinful #102 Purple Diamond

I love the Sinful polishes that have "Diamond" in the name. They just have so much bling that camera can't possibly capture it. Next time I'm going to layer this over something since it's a bit sheer even with three coats.

NOTD: Sinful #220 Green Ocean over Sally Hansen Pink Pearl + Konad c06 & c02

Oh my, this manicure just continues to piss me off :(

I wanted to wear Zoya Lily, but I couldn't open it. The boy friend is not home, and he usually opens stubborn nail polish bottles lol.

Then I decided on Sally (Satan) Hansen Nail Prism in Pink Pearl. After about 3 coats I realized that is was streaky and sheer. Hmmm. Flakies make things better, I thought. I picked up Sinful Green Ocean which looks gorgeous in the bottle. Unfortunately Sinful flakies aren't nearly as good as Nfu-Ohs. The Sinfuls are much less dense, the flakes vary greatly in size, and they tend to leave the surface of the nail very rough. I did two coats of the Sinful, and I actually thought it looked pretty good. Until I photographed it:

Ew?

After I got home from work, I decided to test out my new Konad Coraline kit. I used the special Konad polish in Violet Pearl (at least that's what I think it is; the konad polishes don't have the names printed on them).


I used c06 for the french tip and c02 for the heart. The french tip was much easier to work with than expected. I'll definitely be using that plate more.

NOTD: Sinful #813 What's Your Name

Oh hai red cuticles. I guess when you use Yves Rocher nail polish remover to remove red nail polish it just transfers to your cuticles. So if you want red cuticles, get this stuff! Anyway, on to the NOTD! I had a little trouble applying this. Sinful's formula isn't always the best, and this one was a little tricky. Pigmentation is great though. I only used two coats. The green shimmer/glitter is quite striking on the nail. It looks like a starry night (in a galaxy where stars are green....)

NOTD: Sinful #145 Coco Diamond

Coco Diamond is a lovely pinkish brown with gorgeous glass flecked shimmer. The effect is very similar to the China Glaze Summer Days polishes. If you're looking for a more neutral polish with the same finish then you'll love this. Application was decent. The picture is three coats.

NOTD: Sinful #19 Strip Poker + Fauxnad K06 with Sally Hansen Black Pearl

Remember to, you know...

Can I just say how excited I was to use this Sally Hansen Chrome for my Fauxnad/Konad? When I saw the name I immediately thought:

And I was expecting something like this:


Even the bottle looked like a black pearl! Instead I got a boring silver that blended too much with the frosty look of the Sinful polish. Impossible to photograph. I hate you, Sally Hansen.

NOTD: Sinful #19 Strip Poker

I wonder if the name of this polish will cause IT departments around the world to block my blog. That would be sort of fun.

After one coat of this, I was afraid I had picked another Satan polish. It's was sheer and streaky and full of brushstrokes, but after three coats it was beautiful. It is frosty, so you have to be careful with your application, but it's also absolutely gorgeous.

NOTD: Sinful #278 Ray Of Light + Konad m71

m71 is a newly released Konad plate, and holy crap it's amazing! I absolutely love the delicate lace/flower pattern, and I love this mani. So spring.


This mani is my entry for a contest over at Brooke's blog. I'm sure she will get some kick-ass entries. Go have a look!

NOTD: Sinful #278 Ray Of Light

Hmmmm. It seems that I am liking sheers lately. I wonder what's up with that.... maybe some kind of reverse hay fever or pollen allergy.... Anyway, I like this polish! It's a delicate sheer pink with golden shimmer. Very spring. The picture is three coats.

Another Haultastic Month!

Updated with names, cause you told me to....meanies ;)

During the last month I have gotten several amazing nail polish packages from the US. I'm lucky enough to know some lovely girls who don't mind helping me out. Thank you Brooke and Michy :)

NOTD: Sinful #51 Velvet Diamond over Misa Bojangles + "Fauxnad" B03

Don't forget the Fauxnad giveaway!

I decided to keep Misa Bojangles on for another day, but added a "Fauxnad" (fake Konad) image to spice it up. The image is from a plate called B03. It's a round plate that was included as extra with an ebay order. There is a similar (if not identical) butterfly image on Konad plate m40.

Since the white Konad polish was looking a little chalky; I decided to bling it up with Sinful Velvet Diamod. It's a lovely sparkly polish that has a strange snot-like texture. The combination looks ridiculously over the top!

Barbie would love this manicure!

NOTD: Sinful #214 Fiji

Don't forget the Fauxnad giveaway!

Beautiful color, terrible (no... TERRIBLE) application. While I love this color (it is a little more purple than the pictures show) I was still very tempted to throw it against the wall. The formula is just awful. It is too thick and too thin at the same time, it drags, it pools around the cuticles (a problem I very rarely encounter), and it dries with snail speed. I'm not 100% happy with the final result, but I didn't feel like redoing it. It's going to take some time before I wear this again. I need to forgot how much it sucked!

NOTD: Sinful #20 China Gold + "Fauxnad" C04

China Gold started chipping on day 1, sigh.... I decided to try to patch it up and add some Konad. I chose one of the Fauxnad plates from the beauties_factory ebay set. I think the result is pretty decent.
