ManGlaze - ILF.

Happy Saturday! It's about time I got around to trying another one of my ManGlaze mattes.. I know not everyone is a fan of the names. (I'm a fan - cept for maybe Butt Taco.. haha) These are amazing matte polishes though! The formula on this was fantastic, like all the others! Here is ILF -


2 coats matte



w. top coat



so much shimmer!


Enjoy your weekend everyone! Thanks for looking :)

China Glaze - Hook and Line

From the Hunger Games collection - Hook and Line. It's not for everyone. A strange creme/frost that is brush strokey! I do enjoy it though. It is perfectly reminiscent of grey/silvery plastic. Do you know what I am talking about? Not that I have a fondness for grey plastic but I really liked the look of this and wore it a few days :)


2 coats, in the shade.


A little strokey, but I didn't mind!


Some sun..


I definitely did not want to pick this up originally but I'm glad I gave it a shot!

Nails Inc. - Kensington

Happy justabout Tuesday! Kensington is a beautiful deeply blackened teal. I would call it forest green but it has some blue. It's also one of those lovely creme/jelly finishes I love! Definitely a 1 coater - unless you start doing the dishes 15 minutes later. Oops. Some of my nails have 2 coats.. :) This came in the Wyndham Duo with a blue-green flashing flakie (was my first flakie!) that I forgot to photograph before removing it..lol



i guess i could have pretended the 2 coats vs 1 coat was intentional..



you can definitely tell this is teal on the nail in most lighting even though it's v. dark




Currently REALLY loving nails inc. What are your favorites from them??

ORLY - Galaxy Girl.

Hi! Happyy weekend funtimes. Not really doing anything exciting except for catching up on some TV! I've been trying to watch the whole 4 seasons of True Blood and it's taking me forever.. my SO found this HBO app on his xbox360 (if you have an xbox - or an SO w.an xbox, and a sub to HBO check it out!) and it literally has a library of every episode of all of their series, along with 400ish movies..all in HD stream. I am in heaven! I wanted to throw that out there for any tv on tivo/dvd junkies like me haha

Onto Galaxy Girl - It reminds me of a (pretty) bruise. The base to this is probably why, it's a real dark blood color containing multichrome glassflecks. It's pretty sheer, 3 coats still showed bald spots and such in the sun but in lowlight it is dark & gorgeous!

pretty pinky-blue color shift




Enjoy whats left of your weekend everyone!! OH btw, I'd love to know what you got if you're participating in Zoyas Earth Day Promo!!!

SpaRitual - It's Raining Men

Hi! I am super in love with this SpaRitual right now.. it's an amazing multi chrome. Mostly blue based with amazing pink & gold flashes. It's REALLY sheer. I think my tips are super duper transparent or something. I seem to need more coats for full coverage than a lot of folks. This would probably take me about 5! I decided to layer this over a jelly white (essie marshmallow - 2 coats) but that was so streaky I needed 3 coats of this to cover that up anyway lol


such a soft & pretty multichrome!

the blue is softer in person, and the gold is stronger

very happy to finally have this of my lem list!
