Spoiled - Are Mermaids Real?

Happyyyyy weekend! Exxhausting week. Training for a new position with my company and it's mangling my brain. grumblegrumble. Anyhow, here's a pretty polish from the new Spoiled line by WnW.. it is a gorgeous purple loaded with gold flecks.. and it's $1.99!! short on words but many pics of this..

no flash
(purple is somewhere in between, more prominent than in the no flash)



...and another pic the bottle!




  Speciall.. I always DREAD the clean up on these ones though. Those flakes go everywhere and they stay like super glue on my skin. Anyone have tips for clean up on these types of polishes? I'd love to hear them!

ManGlaze ................ Butt Taco.. ?

Happy Wednesday..evening! Accept my apology if the name grosses anyone out.. grosses me out a bit, LOL. I got over it though!!! This is sooo pretty. The same as Lesbi-honest.. PERFECT amazing matte formula! I wouldn't mind having all of the ManGlaze, ever. I'd like to see a ManGlaze Spring collection loool.. maybe that's not their style :)



2 coats.. this is a very wearable orange, so soft!




sooo much shimmer with topcoat! I definitely prefer this one matte though :)



LOL


AHHH I wish I could fast forward to the weekend... !


PS. Don't forget to enter my giveaway if you haven't. 7 days left :)

Butter London - Knackered.

Hi! Happy Saturday :) Today is my NOTD - Butter London Knackered. I realized I have not posted any BL and needed to amend it immediately. I LOVE Butter London, may be my favorite brand.. I'm too indecisive to commit to this but I LOVE every last one I have, they're all special. (which isn't a huge amount - do NOT love the price point.)

I was super excited to try this one out from the new Spring collex, does not disappoint! Although, I did try it first over a dark navy I wasn't totally into it.. but trying it on it's own last night I really fell in love with it! (I'm pretty sure most people would probably prefer it over black though!)

This is 4 coats, I am a fairly thin coater but it's safe to say you'll need at least 3 to wear it with no undies.

Really amazing oyster shade with very teensy scattered holo glitters!
(I feel like this looks a bit grainy in swatches but.. it definitely isn't)




Hope everyone is getting a nice long weekend for the holiday!

O.P.I Jade is the New Black + Essie Shine of the Times

Hi! Jade is the New Black was sitting in my untrieds foreverrrr.. along with like 5 other greens. Shame! I needed to pluck a green so I picked this - and it's gorgeous!

2 coats of this loverly Jade creme
(pictured wet and not full clean up, lol)

Was really not feeling like a plain creme though so I jazzed it up with Essie Shine of the Times + Matte About You.

pretty cute but I have to say I am not a huge SotT fan.. it is sooo overly dense to me (I majorly thinned it out here!!) and it just doesn't flash the rainbow in the bottle.. 


So pretty! I just love looking at it - but I think I'll need to find a similar flakie that isn't so dense and wants to flash more than orange and yellow! 




Almost the weekend :)
