Zoya Charla

Please don't slap me, but I'm gonna show you yet more photos of Charla. A lot of these are unfocused because it looked better that way in photos.

My ring and pointer nails looks so creepy. I swear they don't look that creepy in real life. It's all because of that weirdo curving that long nails seem to get. I don't know why, but it pisses me off. Man, can I ever stop complaining and being negative? Probably not.

Later! =)

Orly Royal Navy

Royal Navy. What more is there to say about it that hasn't already been said? It's beautiful. Oh wait, that's already been said. This is 3 coats. I didn't have VNL like it shows in the photo. Which is weird cause it's supposedly not a jelly and jellies always seem to show up like that on camera on my long nails. I should probably just stop trying to describe colors and finishes and leave that to the polish queens. I'm just a lowly peasant. In fact, you should probably leave here since my photos of this suck and there are much better ones out there.

I'll shut up and stop boring you with my negativity, but first, how about a picture of the kitten?

I just wanna bite that little belly!

That's better. I did some white konad spiders over it after a couple days, though I don't have photos of that. Once again excuse the broken nubbin.

Now these next ones are really bad, but they show the shimmah!

Sorry for the glare.

ULTA Professional Tainted Love

Tainted Love, oooh oh oooh. This is a really pretty green with gold shimmer. I like it a lot. Oh, and basically these photos suck huge amounts of pene. They're showing more blue than it really is. I don't even want to post this, but I guess I have to.

Bottle shot.

Beast (Jade) decided to join me for the photo shoot, as she often does.

What's that you say? Leave the nature shots to the pros? Okay.

OPI Damone Roberts 1968

You've all seen it before and here it is again. 3 coats. I don't know what it is, but I want to buy every mint green that comes out. Anyone else feel this way?

Claire's Happy/Earthy

How I pined for thee, oh Claire's Mood Change polish. I can finally haz you. You could've made more awesome colors, like a red to orange or black to white, but you're still oh so pleasing.

Now if I remember correctly some girls got away with two coats. Uhh na guey, that ain't happening for me. It took me four coats, but it's worth it for the awesomeness that is color change polish. I had so much fun with this. These dry to a satin finish, so you're gonna need some top coat. They weren't especially annoying to apply for me, other than necessitating four coats.

Another thing, I haven't seen these on nails as long as mine, so it looks even cooler on long nails. Like you have a funky french on. I need to spank my pinky to make it stay in line!

Mood ring! It even turns your finger green!

Now the great debate is, should I buy back ups?

Nfu Oh 66

God I hate not feeling good and it's almost all the time.

Anyway, this is one of three Nfu Ohs that I got from the sale at Fabulous Street. It's the most awesome holo-y polish I've seen. It's a celadon green holo that looks really silver indoors to me. I don't even remember how many coats this was. 4, 5? I don't know I lost count after I dropped my brush and in a frenzied attempt to catch it, smeared 4 nails and had to do it ALL OVER AGAIN. I was hot boxing in my bathroom with those Nfu Oh fumes. I thought I was gonna pass out. And there's still some bald spots. The most annoying thing is that you can't go over an already painted spot or it pulls off the polish that was there. Oh well, it's worth it for holo goodness.

I also have my Canon working again, so say bye bye to crappy photos! Woop woop! It's still being stupid though so the pictures are still unsatisfactory. Excuse the stupid looking pointer finger it broke along with my middle and I can't bear to file it down.

There was no sun out, actually I missed the sun, so the outdoor pics are less than thrilling. I can take some tomorrow if it doesn't chip by then.

 Blurred cause it looks cool.

 Indoors

I have top coat on my left ring finger only. I think it messed with the holo, but I'm probably just crazy.

 Outdoors

And a little something for Peter, since I couldn't do my mani.

I said the beast inside of me is gonna get ya, get ya, yeah...

I promise I'm not orange, it's just the stupid camera. I'm still screwing around with it. I'll get it right eventually.

China Glaze Wagon Trail

I can't believe I used to despise this color, and now I have it. It's dirty and awesome.

There was hardly any sun, I had to play tag with it again. It was hard for me to get the shimmer to show up. I tried.

On an unrelated note, I was browsing on ebay and decided to see how much Clarins 230 was running for. $81!! The bids keep rising and rising. I can't believe that, it's the highest price I've seen for a discontinued polish. I though Rainforest and Creme de Menthe were high, damn!

Sinful Colors Green Ocean over Liquid Leather Matte

My latest mani mattiefied. It's weird how blue the flakies and glitter in Green Ocean turn when you put it over black. I'm sure they turn blue with Green Ocean by itself too. Pretty nice wear outta this for almost the third day. I usually have some major chips by then.

Sinful Colors Green Ocean over Liquid Leather

As soon as I saw Siobhan do this, I went out and got Green Ocean. It looks so gorgeous, it reminds me of China Glaze Meteor Shower. This was 2 coats of Liquid Leather and 1 1/2 coats of Green Ocean.

LOVE!

Orly Enchanted Forest

Come visit my enchanted forest and take a trip into my wicked garden... It's filled with thrills and delight. Sorry, that's what it made me think of. I'm a perv, I know.

It's funny what joy can be brought from painting one's nails with a pretty color. Painting my nails always makes me feel better. Well, except sometimes, but I'll get to that later. Indoors and outdoors.

I don't know this looks kinda dull...maybe it's cause my SV is reaching the end of its lifespan. It's all polluted. This is such a pretty green, though. Ilakit a lot.

Evil Shades Samples

I received two samples of eyeshadow when I ordered Rainbow in the Dark by Evil Shades. I'll have that swatched up here sometime this week.

The names are Banshee (blue) and Sinister (green). Outdoors and Indoors. As you can see there's a good amount of product in there.

Now here they are, quick and dirty swatches. A quick swipe with my finger. Sorry for the really crappy blue swatch. I smeared it. Outside, inside, outside.

Inside and kind of outside-ish.

These were really nice and smooth. That's about as articulate as I can get with my reviews, heh.

I think I like Sinister more.

Now just cause I feel bad, I'm gonna do another swatch of these on my hand.

Sun, indoors, shade, sun. Just look at that pretty sparkle! I like these a lot! Great job, Andrea!

Haha, and I just realized I have the blue on my blue eye and the green on my green eye.
