A cute Halloween design ruined by my impatience: A Halloween Nail Fail

Hi guys! So I saw this really cute design on tumblr somewhere but I don't know who did it sorry! But I thought I'd try and recreate it today since it's Halloween!

I used a base of Zoya Jancyn and then used a black striper polish from Orly's Instant Artist line called Jet Black  and a bit of Liquid Vinyl by Orly and a dotting tool to create drips on my nails.

This looked all cute until....

The Liner by Orly dried to a matte finish and looked super weird and I wanted to take photos immidiately so I slapped on a top coat (Without Thinking) and smeared it!

It worked somewhat better on my middle fingers as I really glopped the topcoat on and moved it around and since it was so thick the brush wasn't dragging the design.

Oh well.

It still looks cool from a distance!

OPI Skyfall 2012 Collection: The Spy Who Loved Me

Hi guys! Today I'm showing you another polish from the OPI Skyfall collection 2012 for the holidays. This one is called the Spy Who Loved Me and it's a beautiful red with a gold glittery shimmer throughout. I was dissapointed that it didn't show up as well on my nails as it did in the bottle, but eh. You win some, you lose some. I used two coats for opacity.

This is similar to Zoya Kimmy but Kimmy is A LOT more sparkley!

Nfu Oh #62

Hi guys! Today I thought I'd pull out another of my nfu-Oh holos! This one is #62 and it's a beigey/tan shade with a strong linear holographic effect.

I used two super thin coats. Be aware that nfu-oh holos tend to bring out the worst in your nails, I'm talking every dent, nick and ridge so try a ridge filling basecoat (or topcoat) underneath in attempt to smooth out the nail.

Nfu-Oh nail polishes are available from http://www.crushcosmetics.com.au/  shipping internationally :)

OPI Skyfall Collection 2012: Tomorrow Never Dies

Hi guys! Today I'm showing you a polish from OPIs Skyfall Holiday collection that was just released. This is called Tomorrow Never Dies.

Tomorrow Never Dies is a blurple shade with a slight frost. When you put on the first coat you can really see the purple in it but after two it was nearly all blue to my eyes. It has a slight frost to it but it isn't incredibly brush-strokey, but they're there so be careful with application lol.

China Glaze Halloween 2012: Cast A Spell

Hi guys! Today I'm showing you a polish from this years China Glaze Halloween Collection Wicked. This one is called Cast A Spell.

It's a dark olivey green with a strong gold shimmer throughout. It was very opaque I barely needed a second coat. I thought it might be similar to OPIs Live and Let Live/Die (I can't recall the name off the top of my head) from Skyfall 2012 but this one leans a lot more olivey/brown and has a lot more shimmer than the OPI.

Quick Swatch: Zoya Kimmy

Hi guys! Today I dug up Zoya Kimmy out of my stash and was immidiately reminded why I purchased this polish in the first place! It is a red jelly base packed with golden flecky shimmer, it shines like there is no tomorrow!

I used three coats for full opacity but it also created brilliant intensity!

Throwback Thursday: Halloween 2011 - China Glaze It's Alive

Hi guys! Today I thought I'd swatch a polish from last years China Glaze Halloween Collection called It's Alive. 

It's Alive is a swampy, murky, olivey green jelly base packed with glitter. It suprisingly didn't look horrible on me in my opinion. I used two coats over a base of China Glaze Cast A Spell

Would you ever wear a shade like this?
