I may be feeling a bit guilty about Monday’s post. Alright, not really. But here’s a kiss and make up post to MAC. MAC Unconditionally Fabulous came out with the Glitter and Ice Holiday collection. The other polishes two were cremes, which, if you you follow this blog, you’ll know is not my particularly favorite [...]

Let me get it out of the way. This collection rocks! Let me get something else out of the way. By the time I finished swatching this collection, I had glitter everywhere. In my hair. Stuck in my teeth. Between my toes. Under my arms. I suspect there was some in my panties. Wouldn’t Paris [...]
One of the problems I have with doing series is that by the end of them, I run out of things to say. So let me close this one out by saying that I loved this collection of mini polishes. While the bottles are small, I think the value for what you’re getting is big. [...]
I’m always a little sad when Polish companies don’t actually name their colors. I rather like seeing what their interpretation of their color is. Simply numbering shades seems almost too… efficient. Although OPI comes out with some odd ones and Misa lately seems to be giving them chapters instead of titles, it’s still fun to [...]
The Golden Rose Paris Holographic Collection (I’ll be showing these at a later date) tend to be alot of color with a little holographic. This particular Holographic collection tends to be alot of holographic with a little bit of color. This means that the polish will be thin, pigmentation wise. However, at three coats (which [...]
The Bad: These bottles are a mere 6ml The Good: The price is a mere $2.15 The Bad: Indoors, they’re a tad flat The Good: Outside, they sparkle like fireworks on the 4th The Bad: The collection isn’t extremely pigmented The Good: The collection contains 4 greens The Bad: Extremely short brush handle The Good: [...]
Chainmail Charm is another Diamond Cosmetics superstar. At two coats, the dark grey holo sparkles deliciously. This is a must buy. I think that I’ve actually bought all the non-cremes in the Diamond Cosmetics line. It’s fairly easy to spot what I’d consider the older formula colors as they tend to be on the frosty [...]

I think I may be burned out on glitters. Or perhaps I didn’t have enough coffee the Saturday morning I was swatching these Models Own polishes. Or just maybe, these glitters were as bad as I thought. Because all that was going through my head when I was polishing was, “This is so not working [...]

After loading the pics, I realized I didn’t really pick a wide range of shades, the first three being a bit monochromatic green. But don’t let that put you off, these are some great polishes. Besides, is there ever such a thing as too many greens? I say nay. This is another new brand for [...]
I have a confession. I have the hardest time buying just one bottle of new brand. At minimum I usually buy two but normally I buy 4. It just seems like such a nice number for the start of a new brand in my polish collection. Invariably, there is at least one color that I [...]
