I know, I know. I’ve been missing in action. New job. New computer. Lots of porting I have to do and I just haven’t gotten to it yet. And almost scared to as the new laptop screen is showing colors way differently than the old one. Which means a) [...]
I was so blinded by the pretty colors, I never even noticed the little sticker on these Revlon bottles that said “scented”. I’ve tried the Anna Sui polishes and came to the conclusion that scented lacquers are just not my thing. It seems that my fingers are near my nose more often than [...]
It took you long enough to get here!
I’ve been drooling for a long time over all the Essence swatches I see on the Euro blogs. And finally, the this elusive brand showed up at Ulta for a mere $.99 each. Now, these are small, weighing in at .1oz. However, comparatively, they’re still [...]
But don’t. It’ll still taste like polish.
I stumbled across these beauties the other day at the local Sally’s. I was stopping by to pick up a few polishes for a friend, but once there I ended up getting *cough* a few for myself. When I got to the counter, the clerk looked [...]
And sometimes not. Such is the case with Le Metier. Now, I knew that this was going to be a small bottle. But I just didn’t realize how little “little” truly was until it was in my hand.
I was actually considering getting a couple of these and mentioned it to [...]
I am alive! My nails are not!
I know that I’ve been absent lately, but I’ll be back in full force in a week or two. My nails have been suffering calamity after calamity and are incredibly short right now. And I hate polishing my nails when they are this length. [...]
I have been nursing a broken-to-the-quick nail and each time it starts growing out, it breaks again. The nail gods have not been smiling on me. In the meantime, I’ve had a boatload of polishes arrive with no tips to put it on. One of the boxes that travelled to [...]
Last day of Misas and this group contains a good portion of my Misa favorites. Saving the best for last was totally unintentional, it’s just the way the bottles fell (or were swatched, in this case).
Choclate Icing, Wine Burgundy and Girl Friday, my favorites, have beautiful shimmer, depth and glow. Maybe it’s because gold [...]
Today, a bunch of purples!
I think out of this group, Forbidden Lust is probably the most striking. I can’t say that the rest of them stirred me up in any particular way.
Fatal Affair is one of thosed Blackened colors that barely shows any color unless the light hits it the right [...]
Dreamy Purple and Blueberry Glaze are beautiful colors. They are probably the most captivating colors in this group. I hunted these colors down long after they were discontinued.
I also hunted down Ben-Her. I saw this several times on Nail Gal and “lemming” was an understatement. Both Ben-Her and Lounging by [...]
