Go buy OPI Nail Envy

Wow, I suck at blogging.

ANYWAY.

I've been using OPI Nail Envy for about a month or so now, and holy crap.

You and I have unfinished business...

I'm part of a polish group on facebook, and I can't remember how it came up, but someone mentioned a Kill Bill manicure. As I just watched it this weekend, I decided to give it a go.

The serger thread cones aren't actually involved, but have some videos going in the background.
Did you know I'm criminally insane?

Quick Swatches- Sally Hansen Color Foils

Sorry I haven't posted in a while; life has been kicking my ass all over the place the past couple weeks.

So! While I was at the Meijer in Saginaw for work, I happened to spy the Sally Hansen "Liquid Mani-A" Color Foil Polish display, and since I had lamented earlier to myself how I wish there were more chrome polishes in more colors than typical metal colors, it seemed as if Sally had heard me and responded in kind.

Not a bad shot for someone who took two photography classes

Random other swatch tests

Here's just some random swatches from other polishes I'd picked up recently. Mostly, Essie's Mirror Metallics line, and a L'Oreal that I was hoping was just one of their older polishes repackaged.


DIY Peel-Off Glitter Base Tutorial and Trial

So OPI has released a Glitter Off peelable base coat this year, which for those of us who love glitter but hate cleanup, seemed like a godsend.

Until someone read the ingredients and saw it was just PVA (polyvinyl acetate, AKA white craft glue) and water. NINE DOLLARS.
