NOTD:ORLY Androgynie............

Hello Ladies! Hope you are having a great week. To get ready for my hump day I decided to spice it up with a polish from Orly's 2011 holiday collection called Androgynie. The name is a killer to say and the polish is a killer color in the bottle! I had to get this color IMMEDIATELY! Androgynie is a black/dark green (in sunlight) jelly polish with micro-fine gold and holo shimmer and larger green, blue, and gold hex holo-glitter.........sounds great huh? The color is, but the formula, IMO isn't. It was very hard to work with, all the glitter is at the bottom of the bottle. Just a mess. It usually takes me 15 minutes to do a mani and this took me an hour. None the less, I have photos to show.............2 coats!




Thanks for viewing! MUAH!

NOTD:Butter London "All hail the Queen"

Hello Ladies! Hope you had a great weekend. It went by very fast for me. Work has been awesome! I had to do my polish change for church and decided to play it low key, at least I thought it would be low key. And stumbled onto All Hail the Queen, by Butter London. This color is a nice neutral slate light brown with beautiful holo glitter. Definitly safe for work, but has the "umph" for polish lovers. As usual the formula was awesome, I applied 3 coats and it dried very quickly.







Look at that beautifulness!

Crackle my Taint..................

Hello Ladies!  I wanted to do something different during the work week and decided to try Illamasqua Taint as my NOTD. I like Illamasqua a lot! Their polish formula is AMAZING!  I always get long wear time,  and they have an array of unique colors.  Taint is from their Fall 2011 line called Theatre of the Nameless.  These polishes have a wax like rubber finish, but once you apply a top coat the shine is to die for (which I did not post here).  Taint is a taupe brown creme, but I had times when it appeared to be dark grey/green.  Lovely color, very different. 2 coats.

Oldie but goodie.............. Essie "Bags to Riches"

Hello Ladies!  Happy Sunday!  Hope this weekend has been awesome.  I relaxed today and now trying to get ready for my work week.  It's been six weeks and I am still not used to working yet!  LOL. Anywho,  I was going through my lovely stash and came across this beauty.  The bottle is at the half mark,  so I know I put it to some good use.  With the hype of all the new polishes coming out, I forget about my goodies I already have.  Essie Bags to Riches is a color from their 2007 Glamour girl collection.  It's a creme tan or yellowish color.  It favors coffee with cream.  I was one of the few that loved it on my skin tone.  Here is 3 coats.....Enjoy!

Color Club "Fashion Addict"

Hello Ladies!  As I have said in previous posts,  I really do not like Holo polish.  It really does nothing for me,  but I am trying to use all the polish I have before buying more polish (we all know how it goes).  I  peeked in my stash and saw Fashion Addict from Color Club and decided..........why not? After applying 2 coats, I knew it wouldn't last long as a mani, so I took it off, but here are some pictures! 2 coats!




Not bad, just not all gooey inside!


Thanks for subbing and viewing

My first week of work and Starry Pink!

Hello Ladies! Work has been GREAT!  I just need to find my grove between being a working mom, housewife and a Diva!  But I sure LOVE working!  So......... I know I have been late on my posts,  BUT better late than never.  I began to contemplate what would be a great polish for my first day of work and Starry Pink came to mind,  subtle but makes a statement!  I got so many compliments on this color.  I have to admit,  I thought this polish would disappoint me.  It appeared to good to be true in a bottle.  Revlon has won me over again!  Starry Pink is a very light baby pink with silver chunky glitter and micro glitter.  She packs a punch!  3 coats!
