Polish haul

This was day 2 when we were at my Mom's. The OPI's were from Kitsap Beauty supply and the rest were from her Dollar tree. The lipsticks came with the Maybelline polish! It was a righteous haul! 5 Blings

Purple Duochrome comparison

I wanted to do a purple duochrome comparison that looked similar in the bottle to me.

Pointer - "Lapis Amethyst" by Sally Hansen Nail Prisms

This is alot lighter and more blue.This is three coats and it could have used four. Like. Not bad for 50 cents. 3 Blings

Middle - "Grape Going" by Sally Hansen Insta-Dri

This is the Scrangie Dupe that I was dying to try. Love the color. I cant wait to wear this when it is sunny! This is three coats and it could have used four. Love. 4 Blings

Ring - "Violet metal" by Rimmel Lasting Finish Pro

Gorgeous color and finish, what's not to love. This is three coats and it's just right. Love. 4 Blings

Pinkie - "Eggplant Frost" Wet n Wild Wild Shine

I'm not seeing the duochrome on the nail. This is still a really nice vampy dark purple. This is three coats but could have got away with two. The kicker here is it's got fab color, finish and shine and it's only $1.00. Love. 3.5 Blings

LoveMyNails "Plum Shimmer" with Hearts

First off, the color is not plum, though it is a beautiful pink and silver shimmer. It went on very easy, UNFORTUNATELY it comes off easy too! I can't get it to stop smudging, even after Seche Vite or Poshe top coats! For someone who works with horses and is very active, this is a deal breaker. I love the color, but it's virtually unwearable. Polish from hell gets 1.5 blings (.5 for good color).

The hearts are so cute and they look like rhinestones! Though they are also a bit hard to wear since they are hard and don't sit too well on the nails, a few top coats does the trick. 3 Blings

UPDATE 2/14/10: This is also a real pain to take off :(

Update

Odd, I put on a clear top coat and it looks more blue. Maybe my lighting too but it's much more what I expected now.

WetnWild Caribbean Frost

This went on smooth and had a good medium opacity and although I used 3 coats, I could have gotten away with 2. I am a bit disappointed that there isn't more blue. 3.5 Blings
