Calvin Klein Splendid Color - Tutu

TGIF!

Today's another day off for me, so go figure I have an awful headache. :/ So this is going to be a snappy post. 

Today I have Calvin Klein's Tutu to share, another blog sale find. THIS POLISH IS AWESOME! Tutu is a deep black/brown based polish with gold duochrome shimmer. Formula was nice and smooth. This is two coats.

Have a great Friday!

Pretty Serious - Gargoyle Ganache

HAPPY FRIDAY!

I hope you're all having a fantastic start to your weekend! I'm throwing a baby shower tomorrow, I hope it all goes well! 

Today I have my last polish I received from Pretty Serious's Monster Mash collection to share, Gargoyle Ganache. I still need to order the last two, but I'm holding off for a big order when they reveal their Christmas collection! Gargoyle Ganache is a complex creation indeed! I'm not surprised this bad boy sold out! It starts off as a smoky grey/purple base with strong duochrome colors flashes in the bottle and purple and green flakies that are brought out in the right light. This is two coats. It was a tad on the thick side, but it make for a nice opaque feel after just one coat. 

Have a great Friday, girls!

Pretty Serious - Mummy Mush

Hey girls!

I hope you're all having a good week! It's been up and down for me, one of our cars broke down so that sucked. BUT I have a long weekend so I can relax, catch up on TV, and swatch my little butt off! Onto the polish!

Today I have yet another Pretty Serious Monster Mash polish to share, Mummy Mush. This polish is just so delicate and complex that I caught myself staring at my nails in all different lightings! Mummy Mush is a crazy glass-flecked polish that shifts from gold to pink and EVEN a slight blue color shift as well! Alas, it was IMPOSSIBLE to capture but its there! Check out Kaz's post HERE - she shows it off spot-on! This really is my new go-to neutral. It was so EASY to build up the color, this is three coats. So delicate and pretty. 

Check out the bottle shots - really shows off that color shift!

Have a great Hump Day!

Revlon Top Speed - Splashy

Happy Saturday!

Today I have a vintage Revlon Top Speed polish to share from my polish BFF Jacqui! As you all know, my love for vintage Revlon polishes pretty much knows no bounds, so you could imagine my excited when I saw this beauty in person!

Splashy is your typical watery vintage goodness! A dusty, lightened green polish with a slight blue duochrome to it! It has some golden tones to it as well. I love pale, mossy greens like these! Three coats.

Have a fun weekend!

Revlon StreetWear - FX Flash (green version)

Monday's suck. That's just the truth, plain and simple.

So let's spice it up with a jaw-dropping glitter! Today I have one of the most sought after Revlon StreetWear glitters, FX Flash - the green version (there's also a blue). This heck of a glitter is a decant gifted to me by Jacqui. Thanks again, love! Gah, I love it so much! (I'm wearing it right now actually! :p) One day I need to not only nab the full-sized version, but I need the blue as well. FX Flash is a clear-based polish that starts off with teeny, tiny black micro glitter. (It's hard to see since I layered it over black, you can see it much better in the bottle shot at the end of the post.) The bell of the ball in this polish is the mind-blowing green glitter that flashes to gold. I love glitter, I love green, and I love duochrome. Color me happy! Two coats over two coats of Wet W Wild black creme.

Yep, that's right. Freakin' fantastic!

Ok, who's drooling now?! :P

Revlon Color Chrome LE - KhakiChrome

TGIF!

Today's the day!!! My mom and brother are currently on their way to Virginia Beach! I feel like I a kid at Christmas! *big goofy grin* :D No worries, they'll be here for a week but I have all my posts ready to go! 

Today I have an amazing (and my first!) Revlon Color Chrome LE polish - KhakiChrome, KhakiZing's cousin. (Swatches to come soon!) My polish BFF Jacqui gifted me this gem. MAN looking back at these swatches remind me how much I love this gem! Oh vintage Revlons, you have my heart. Where do I start? Formula? Great AND it dried in a flash. Not to mention this is a duochrome that's actually a chrome LOL!  A metallic, shiny chrome at that! It shifts from a pink/mauve to a gold/copper. Obviously for the majority it stays in the pink/mauve side of things, but I tried to capture the gold/copper best I can. The bottle shot at the end really shows it off. Two coats.

See that color shift?

Have a great Friday!

Nicole By OPI Target Exclusive for Fall - Mer-Maid For Each Other

Happy Hump Day!

This past August a group of lovely ladies and fellow bloggers participated in a 2012 Nail BFFs Gift Exchange - AKA Christmas in August! The wonderful Amanda organized this Secret Santa and it was a blast! I had so much fun shopping for my draw and I was AMAZED when I opened mine! The GENEROUS and AWESOME Ryan over at Naild In The South got me. She's a fan of my blog and simply spoiled me rotten. Not only that, but she's an awesome chick and we even exchanged digits to text! Icing on the cake to amazing polish? Hand made Alcide bookmark and card. (My True Blood crush!) and lots of Hello Kitty gear. Now to the polish!

Ryan was so awesome she included who polishes from Nicole By OPI's Target Exclusives for Fall 2012. The whole collection has such range in finishes and colors and this bad boy was one I knew I would love! Mer-Maid For Each Other is a vibrant green metallic polish that flashes a duochrome of blue, yellow, and gold. It really glows and stands out on the nail! I really enjoyed the formula more than I thought I would. This is two coats. I got so many complainants. I knew these types of greens are all over the place now, but I adore this all the more. Love. 

Have a fantastic day, ladies! (and gents?...)

Retro Sunday Squared With Scholarly Nail - Revlon's: KiwiZing & Winey

We're baaaaaaaaaaack!

For this addition of mine and Jacqui's Retro Sunday Squared we decided to have a free-for-all and pick any two Revlon's to share! First up I have the unspeakably beautiful duochrome, KiwiZing. I almost have no words. I have a insatiable love for duochromes and this polish is one of my new favorites. EVER. Esther sent this to my greedy little polish hands. Thanks again, doll! I'll just let the pics do the talkin'. Two coats. Let the drooling begin. :P

Yep, that's right.

Soak it on in.

Next up I have Winey from their old Top Speed line. Formula was buttery smooth on this strawberry pink polish with hidden purple shimmer. It's so cheerful! I'm thinking great pedi color! Two coats.

Look closely - hidden shimmer!
