Update and Polish of the Week!

Hi, everyone! I know, 2 months to the date, right? I'm so sorry! I started my new job and I have been so focused on the orientation process that I'm completely exhausted by the time I come home! But now that I'm getting into the swing of things fairly well, I hope to get back to regular postings!!

Ok, so I don't know about the rest of you, but I am a Christmas freak! I started gearing up for Christmas the day after Halloween! I freakin' love Christmas! So, this week's polish of the week comes from O.P.I.'s new Holiday Wishes collection. Say hello to Shim-Merry Chic!

I wasn't quite sure what to think of this color when I first got it. I like the overall color, but what I really liked were the flakes of different color in it. It's not like any other color I have, so buying it was a must!

You can find this color at:

Amazon.com : $5.35

8ty8 Beauty : $4.48

ULTA stores : $8.50

Let me know what you think!

Until next time, XOXO!

Polish of the Week: OPI Black Cherry Chutney

Hi, there! Hope you all had a great weekend! Sorry for the lack of updates last week - I just started a new job and last week was full of orientation and such! And this week's polish is not going to be the prettiest sample! I actually JUST put it on so that I would have an update for you. I am currently wearing it on my toes, but I have such a foot anti-fetish that I will never take pictures of my feet to show them to you! So I threw it on my fingernails for you!

This week's color is OPI's Black Cherry Chutney. Seriously, this color is to die for! It's a deep raspberry plum (like a reddish-black) color that is just gorgeous and perfect for the fall! It's from the India collection (which included some absolutely amazing colors!) and I consider it a must-have for this coming fall/winter season!

You can find this at:

SV Beauty Supply: $4.25 - yes, $4.25!!!
American Discount Beauty Supply: $5.95

88 Beauty Supply : $4.48 - I know, crazy right?!

Until next time, XOXO!!

I'm Back & Polish of the Week: OPI You Don't Know Jacques

Hi, everyone! I know, it's been forever! But I just got my computer back! I've been without it for about three weeks and I felt like I was going to die - I'm a little too attached to this thing! :)

This week's nail polish color is one you might remember from my haul post I wasn't initially thrilled with the color, but guess what? - I love it!!! It might be one of my new favorite fall polishes. It's a creamy grayish-taupe color, and has great coverage. Just your two coats and you're ready to go! This isn't the matte color that OPI recently came out with, though. It's from their fall collection last year - La Collection de France, I believe. I'm dying to try out their matte colors, but I'm having a hard time trying to find them locally! I'm cheap and don't like to pay for shipping when I can drive to find what I'm looking for! What do you guys think?

Polish of the Week: Spontaneous by China Glaze

Hey, beauties! Hope you all had a wonderful weekend! My computer is still being worked on, but fortunately, I was able to scrounge up a polish of the week for you! Hopefully I will get my computer back sometime this week, if not by the weekend. I feel naked without it! LOL!

Anyway, this week's color is Spontaneous by China Glaze. It's a beautiful creamy lilac color. I always think of Easter when I wear this polish - hmmm, maybe because of the pastel color perhaps? Unlike last week's color, Turned Up Turquoise, this is a richer color with great coverage! Two coats and you're done with no sheerness to it at all!

You can find this color at:
Sally's Beauty Supply: $4.99

China Glaze Diva: $5.40

Until next time, XOXO!!

Polish Of The Week: Turned Up Turquoise by China Glaze

Happy Monday everyone! Hope you all had a great weekend! I'm experiencing some computer issues at the moment (aka crashing!) so I'm doing updates from work - Shhhhh! I don't know if I will be able to get an update scheduled for every day this week (I should be getting my computer back sometime this weekend), but I'll do what I can!

Ok, so my polish of the week is one of my faves - especially for the summer! It's called "Turned Up Turquoise" by China Glaze. This color is gorgeous, the pictures can't do it justice. I would say it's more on the green side so I wouldn't exactly call this color turquoise but almost like a mermaid green color. Does that make any sense? :) This color dries super fast, probably because it's a more sheer color, which leads me to my only issue with this particular color - you need a really good base coat and at least two layers of this polish. You can probably see the white from my french manicure trying to shine through the color! I put on two coats - shoulda gone with three! But it is such a gorgeous color! Definitely check it out!

Unitl next time, XOXO!!

Polish of the week: OPI Yoga-Ta Get This Blue

Hi, beauties! This week's nail color is Yoga-Ta Get This Blue - a slammin' deep, rich dark blue. I love this color! It's from the India Collection (Spring/Summer 2008). I love to wear it when I have a tan! My tan skin and this blue just seem to compliment each other - therefore, I don't use this color in the winter AT ALL! It just makes my skin look that much whiter - not pretty!!



This color can be found at the following websites:

**Sorry for the poor quality - I don't know why it didn't come out very well!

What do you think? Isn't it gorgeous?!?

Until next time - XOXO!!
