Mint Chip nom nom

So glad I managed to grab a few photos of my nails this morning, as by this afternoon they were a complete mess from putting hubbys new bbq together!
This is Mint Chip, from Smitten Polish and it delicious!  Well, I didn't actually eat/drink it, but I wanted to.  lol




I love the 2 different sized brown glitters.   I definitely would of preferred to see more of the bigger ones, as you can see from the pics some of my nails only got one each, and I just hate to fish for glitter.  Apart from that I love this and look forward to wearing it again.  
Oh and if you can see some glitter on my pinkie, that is China Glazes Fairy Dust.. I wanted to see what it looked like as I haven't had a chance to wear it yet.  I think I am going to have to try harder to not buy any more polish for a while, as my untrieds are getting out of control.  ;)

You're Turning Violet, Violet!

Love the name, love the polish even more!  Unfortunately my camera didn't like it, I just could not get any decent photos. I will post a couple that turned out ok, they definitely don't show the awesomeness of this polish though.




No great pics but you get the idea.. purple blue glittery gorgeousness!!!  I wanted to get the photos before I took it off tomorrow, as I have chipped it already.  :(

On a different note.. I am completely embarrassed about my cuticles.  They look horrible, especially in close ups.  Can anyone recommend a good cuticle cream/oil?

Oh and in the mail today came something I have been waiting on..  Nfu Oh Victorian Polish Number 051!!  How adorable is the bottle!!  So excited.. it's probably what I will put on tomorrow, it looks so gorgeous.  :)

Latest haul!

ooh completely forgot I wanted to share the polishes that came in the mail on Friday.. I was so excited I actually jumped up and down!  lol


First up is Smitten Polish'  'You're Turning Violet, Violet'.  An amazing mix opurple holo glitter, plus dark blue holo glitter, in a purple base.  Can't wait to swatch this one!




 Next is AphroditeLacquers 'Nebula'.  A gorgous black polish with sky blue shimmer, silver and sky blue glitter.



 This is another from AphrodieLacquers, called 'Supernova'.  A black polish, with fuschia, pink, and silver glitter.  So pretty!  These are both from the 'Outta This World' collection.


 Next up is one I have been wanting for a while, Dollish Polish' 'It's A Me, Mario'!   This polish has a clear base, and is full of different sized blue & red glitter and large stars.  I cannot say (or even think) the name of this polish without saying it like Mario does!  lol   I picked this little beauty up at Llarowe.



Next is one I found when I was out shopping.. it's NYC Color 'Goldfish'.  I just love the name, and the brightness.  I cannot find a website for NYC Color (if anyone knows it please feel free to share!), but I picked this up in my local Big W and it was $2.


Ooh and thanks to Kaz of Parisian Blue Sky for her tip on finding Max Factors Fantasy Fire (Clarins 230 dupe) at her local Target store.  I rushed right out and there it was at my local store!  So happy!  I also checked Priceline and they had it there also.. and it was only $5!   $5!!!!!  You do not even want to know what i paid for one off EvilBay.  So I plan on checking back every few days and hopefully getting myself a lil FF stash.. may even do one as a giveaway when I get a few more followers.  :)

Confection!

Just a quick post today, I had to show you my newest polish, Confection from Smitten Polish.. I just love it!  This is with 3 coats.. still a bit sheer for me so i think next time i will layer it over a white or very pale pink.  Will be perfect for a wedding I am going to this weekend,  its like having confetti on my nails!  ;)


Updating the no buy situation.. I am absolutely hopeless.  :-/
I just ordered the OPI New York City Ballet Collection.  They are not usually colours I would wear, I tend to go for the darker shades.  But I have been seeing alot of swatches of them lately and I just fell in love!  Managed to find them on EvilBay for around $5 each plus shipping.  I already have Barre My Soul, so of course I had to have the whole collection.  ;)
I have the colours I want from the Spiderman collection on the way to me, so I just need to get the Germany Collection and I will be happy.   Well, at least until I see another collection I want..  oh wait, that would be the True Blood collection from Deborah Lippmann.. eek its never ending!  lol
