Color Club Haul

Hey guys!! So today I have a few of Color Club's Polishes. All the formulas were the same; easy to apply, quick dry and 2 coats. The first polishes are from the Starry Temptress collection and all have holographic glitter but once applied don't look so holographic. You'll see what I mean :)

Here's "Otherworldly". 

    Indoor lighting. 

Don't look so holo, huh? This has a jellyish formula and dried semi matte. 

This is "Glitter Envy". 

    Natural lighting. 

A bright jelly green with holo glitters and dried semi matte. 

Last for this collection is "Wink,Wink,Twinkle". 

    Natural lighting. 

This is also a jelly, semi matte. I love how the glitters look purple-ish!

Here's "Fame & Fortune" from the Backstage Pass collection. 

    Direct sunlight. 

This picture does no justice. If you love shard glitter and jellies then this is for you!  This is bright red/pink jelly with holo shreds. 

Thanks for stopping by!!

More Hard Candy Polish!

Hey guys! I found 2 more of the new Hard Candy polishes at Wal-Mart! 

This is "Crush On Hot Pink". 

   Natural lighting. 

So this one is from the Crushed Chromes collection. It's a beautiful bright pink packed with shimmer and had a great formula. This is 2 coats. 

Here's "Bite Of Black"

If you like black and or glitter polish, this is for you! It had a jelly like consistency and has silver, pink and blue micro glitters. This is from the Itzy Glitzy collection. 

Definitely recommend grabbing these while you can! There are 2 others that I haven't swatched and one is called "Touch Of Teal" from the Crushed Chromes Collection and the other is a glitter called "Bridal Party" from the Crystal Confetti collection and retail for about $4 CAD.

O.P.I San Francisco Fall Collection 2013

Hi guys! Today I have 3 polishes from OPI's San Francisco Fall Collection. To be honest, I didn't like most of them and I'm a huge fan of Fall colours. But they are definitely still worth checking out! 

Here's "In The Cable Car-Pool Lane". 
    Natural light. 
This is such a gorgeous burgundy colour!  I had to use 3 coats. With just 2, you could still see through it a bit. 

Here's "It's All San Andreas Fault". 
    Natural light. 
Love! Great application and dry time! This. Is 2 coats. 

Last is "Alcatraz...Rocks". 
    Direct sunlight. 

First of all, please excuse the oil lol. This is a smoky navy blue/purple with beautiful glitter! This is a must have for everyone! 


    Blurred to show all that sparkle!

I hope everyone enjoyed this! I'd love to hear your thoughts on these and your opinions on the others!!

China Glaze Sunsational Jellies summer 2013

Hi!! I picked up few of China Glaze's new polishes from their summer jelly collection. They are great! 

Here's "Are You Jelly?"

Beautiful purple! Easy to build up colour, great application and dry time!! This is 4 coats. 

 Jelly sandwich using OPI's "Polka.com" 


This is "Keepin' It Teal". 
This is 4 coats and was harder to build up. But, it is a jelly after all! It's a gorgeous colour, I would say more a turquoise. 

 Jelly sammich!!! 

Can't wait to get my hands on the others! Have you tried them? What do you think of these?

OPI Spookettes Collection

Hey everyone!! Over this past week, I've found an awesome beauty supply store! It even has the Color Club Halo Hues which Sally Beauty Salon does not! Anyways, it's never to early for Halloween in my opinion so today I have one of OPI's earlier Spookettes Collection. 2011 I believe. It consists of four minis and a few nail decals. 

    Here is the package. 
My daughter lost my decals, but it shows a preview in the upper right hand corner of the packaging. 

First up is "He's My Boo". 

It's a standard orange cream. Application was nice. This was renamed for this collection and was originally released as "In My Back Pocket". 

Here's "Mummy Knows Best". 
 
Originally released as "Alpine Snow", this white cream had a nice formula. Minor issues with balding. This is 3 coats. 

This is "Zom-body To Love" over "Mummy Knows Best"
Isn't the name so cute?!! And, this glows in the dark!!!

Action shot!!
Bam. 
I can't wait to do some nail art with this!

Last but not least, "I Only Date Werewolves". 

Originally released as "Black Onyx". This is just a creamy black. I actually loved the formula and application was great. Plus, it had a pretty good dry time too. 

Are you all ready for Halloween too? I'd love to hear what you have to say! Thanks for stopping by and don't forget to find me on Instagram!! @polishednubs
