Seven Days of Misa – Day 7

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 [...]

Seven Days of Misa – Day 6

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 [...]

Seven Days of Misa – Day 5

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 [...]

Seven Days of Misa – Day 4

Of all the colors on this page, I was surprised to find Secrets to be the one I was drawn to. For a pearl, it went on beautifully. I like the light green, bordering on yellow color.
While I find Toxic Seduction to be a gorgeous color, this is one color that I have [...]

Seven Days of Misa – Day 3

This Grouping contains a lot of colors that I thought looked better in the bottle than on the tips. I had high hopes for Foxy & Folksy, Majestic Purple and Persian Carpet. But they just didn’t deliver the zing that the bottle promised.
Rust, on the other hand, ended up being much nicer than [...]

Seven Days of Misa – Day 2

I was a little surprised that Little Tease and Enchanted were my favorites out of this group. Little Tease was almost jelly like with shimmer. Most colors like this tend to be streaky messes, but this went on nicely. Enchanted is a shade of beige that I usually don’t care for. [...]

Seven Days of Misa – Day 1

I realized, recently, that out of my 42 Misa colors, I had only ever swatched 2. Horrid, as this brand contained many lemmings that I had searched long and hard for.
After a long weekend of swatching, I found myself rather underwhelmed by this brand. Yes, there were some very nice colors. [...]

Top Coats Undressed – D: Misa Breakneck

 
When I first started gathering the selected top coats to be tested, Misa wasn’t one of them. It was a later addition. I realized I hadn’t heard anyone ever mention anything about Breakneck (and now I know why) so I figured it needed a little attention. And a “little” is all it received during this [...]

It’s pretty easy being green

Okay, I have to admit that Kermit might need to step aside here because St. Patty is stomping right through here!
Happy St. Patrick’s Day!
To celebrate, I figured I would share with you some of my greens. Sometimes greens can be a little intimidating, this is why when I began to wear greens, I started out [...]

Happy Valentine’s Day

Honestly, I must admit that this is a very silly, commercialized Hallmark holiday. However, it doesn’t mean that I can’t use this day as an excuse to do themed manis!

Don’t forget to tell someone you love them! I love you guys!
