Hello Again- Again

Just popping in quickly to say hello and sorry we haven't been around. Tomorrow is my (April) tonsilectomy- oh boy. BUT it means that I might finally have some couch time to do lots of posts if I'm feeling up to it! Yeah!

This is "Lucky Lucky Lavendar" by OPI, and I chose it because I'm hoping for good luck during my surgery (and they said I can only wear light colored polish, so I hope this qualifies). It has the fantastic application of almost all OPI's- very creamy. Though I did have to use 3 coats to get past VNL. I'm giving this 4 Blings!

We're Ba-ack! Beautiful Borghese :)

Well hello again- finally right!?! First off, thank you all so very much for your well wishes- Papa is doing well and finally out of the hospital (again- hopefully for a long time).

This beautiful polish is "Bella Berry" by Borghese. Not Twilight related, at least I don't think, lol. Very nice brush, near perfect application, and stunning color earn this baby a whopping 5 Blings!

*Hugs*

NEW Milani Liquid Metal "DOT COM"

This is sooooo awesome! It is a purple with gold shimmer that looks like real gold dust! Went on great, opaque- this is two coats, and is moderately shiny so you'll want a top coat for best impression. You'll be queen of your own .com empire with this polish! Love! 5 Blings!

Our Claire's Mood polish Win from Sawan

Here is the first of the Mood polish's that we won from the fabulous Laura from Sawan. I just knew I was going to love this polish and I was right! this is Calm / Wild, and it is! This was two easy coats that dried fast, and a top coat of Poshe'. This was way better with a top coat, don't skip it. This is top 5 now! My DH also flipped over this. I wore it for two days and had a really hard time taking it off. Thank You so much Laura for a new HG! LOVE!!! 5+ Blings

More Petites Color Fever!

Again, all of these went on very well and dried fast! First up is "Twilight", a beautiful steel colored shimmer. One coat, and this was a touch darker in person. 4 Blings.


Next up is "Violet Frost", a stunning plum shimmer that is absolutely magnificent in person. This was one coat with VNL, two coats tops, and 4.5 Blings!


"Candy Green" reminds me of a candy apple, but with a kick. This is one coat and sure to get you noticed! Very unique and more vibrant in person. 4.5 Blings.

The Emerald City is turning purple! This purple polish is "Flying Dragon" by China Glaze and it is fantastic! In the first pic I have two fingers matte and two fingers shiny. In the last pic I just had to make them all shiny!

It went on perfectly, not to thick or thin moderate opacity, just perfect. A dark but florescent purple with fuchsia and light blue sparkles, this is 3 coats and 5 blings!

Woo Hoo Purple Ave.

I have been meaning to do this combo for some time. When I saw these bottles together I new they were meant for each other. This is two yummy, flakie coats of NYX - Purple Ave. over Sally Hansen - Grape Going. Love me some flakies! Dried super fast. Love!!! 5 Blings

I wanna be a Groupie

It's not bad hair day, it's duochrome day!

This is so fabulous, and it just won't show it's full glory on camera. You're seeing the blue flash, but you aren't seeing the dark fuchsia flash. This is "Groupie" by L.A. Girl Rock Star and it gets 5 Blings easy!

~April

The infamous "Scrangie Dupe"

Well, I really don't know how much of a dupe this is because I don't have RBL - Scrangie polish. By the time I got up the courage to pay that much it was sold out. This is Sally Hansen - Grape Going. This is three coats with a top coat of Poshe'. I Love this color! It reminds me of finely machined and oiled steel. This is a gorgeous purple and blue green duo-chrome, I just wish it covered in two coats. And dry time was very slow.
I think this may be back up worthy! Sadly no sun could be found for the pics in the Emerald City. LOVE! 5 Blings

Uptown Girl

This is a beautiful dusty mauve from Color Club's "Rebel Debutante" collection. Same great creamy application! 2 coats with no top coat. 4 Blings

~April

Goody Plum Drop

Well, this is from the Sweet Things line from Maybelline. This is two coats with no top coat. It went on ok. The color is much warmer than the pics. The weird thing about this polish is the little bubbles that showed up as it dried. Maybe if I had put a top coat on it would have been better.
I like the color and the $1.75 price was cool. 3.5 Blings

~ Sylvia ~

Holy Purple Cow Batman!

OMG!!! This is my precious! This is everything that everybody has said and more! Don't you just love it when you find another HG! My heart is all a flutter!
This is Claire's - Magic. And it is. This is two coats of smooth, easy, just right perfection! With a top coat of Poshe'. I'm praying for sun tomorrow for some good pics.
I'm going to need some back up's of this one for sure.
5+ Blings

OPI "DS Mystery"

I think I love this as much as DH hates it, lol. He doesn't like dark colors, but this dark purple/burple with gold sparkle is right up my ally! Very original! 4.5 blings!

New Rite Aid Displays

New Limited Edition Sally Hansen Insta-Dri's. Some of these look very similar to other Insta-Dri colors, however a couple are different- like the mango color for example.


We have never seen these before! Color Fever by petites- does anyone know about these? Are they any good?

WetNWild icon eye shadows. These are beautiful!

Prestige Cosmetics Limited Edition Eye Shadows. The colors aren't that original, but they would look great for Patty's Day.

All in all we are loving Rite Aid!

~Sylvia and April
