Milani - Totally Cool

Happy Saturday!

Welp, ladies - I've officially found my favorite Milani ever - Totally Cool. Not sure what exactly took me so long to jump on the bandwagon with this one, but I'm more than happy I came to my senses! 

Totally Cool is what happens when an amazing jelly has a baby with beautiful duochrome shimmer. The purple jelly leans towards blue and the shimmer shifts from magenta to bronze. Seriously. I have no words. It's flipping amazing and if you don't have it yet you're absolutely insane. What's even more insane? I paid a mere three bucks and some change with shipping on eBay. RUN TO EBAY AND BUY THIS!!! NOW!!! This is three or four coats..I can't remember. I was too busy drooling.








Totally Cool has totally stolen my heart. <3

Nars - Desperado

Happy Saturday!

Today I have my very *first* Nars polish to share - Desperado! There's plenty of Nars that I would LOVE to own, but I just even took the plunge until now. Desperado is a golden bronze metallic beauty that glows from within! I LOVE this color on my skin-tone, I think it would actually look fantasti on everyone. :) The formula pooled on my ring finger, but other then that really not too many issues with the formula, just not impressed. Lovely color though! This is three thin coats.





Have a great weekend!

Canadian Exclusives - Sally Hansen Diamonds Strengths - Allspice & Plum Royale

Hi! 

As a rare polish collector, if you throw "Exclusive" in front of any polish line or name, I want it a million times more. Can't help it, just makes it impossible to pass up. These two Sally Hansen Diamond Strength polishes are Canadian exclusives from Kaz's blog sale. SWEEEET! I am a huge Sally Hansen fan and both of these colors are right up me alley. 

First up I have Allspice. I ended up loving this polish a million times more than I though I would. I knew it was a pretty but when I saw it in person, WOW. Allspice is a rich and creamy bronze metallic polish that has such a luxurious feel to it. I didn't want to take it off to keep swatching! Two coats.




Next up I have Plum Royale, a fantastic purple shimmer polish with pink undertones. I'm a sucker for purples of this nature, and this is no exception. Oh, Sally, WHY didn't this line come to the US?! I NEEEEED the rest! :D Two coats.




Have a great day!

Old and New - Revlon Street Wear Exposed and Zoya's Sooki

Morning!

It's that time again for my Old and New post! I recently came across a few Revlon Street Wears at a thrift store here in Virginia Beach. I'm not going to lie. I Almost peed my pants. :P Why you may ask? THEY WERE 99 CENTS! The polish Gods smiled on me that day for sure! I am wishing and hoping that Revlon re-releases Street Wears. I want them all. Every. Single. One. Here is Exposed. 




Exposed is my kind of color - bronze, chrome and a tiny bit frosty! It really warmed up my complexion and I love the way it looked on me. Oddly enough, I owned some Street Wears back in the day, and I really think I had this one! I swear! :P Every time I look online for Street Wears pics, I end up falling asleep having happy polish dreams of how amazing polish used to be when I was a teenager. BRING THEM BACK, REVLON! BRING THEM BACK! Two even coats.




As I know I said before with Essie's Jelly Apple, I'm getting back to my roots of my beloved red polish! Sooki is a cool-toned red creme, almost jelly polish. It has a great, crisp feel to it, reminds me of a tomato! It applied great, this is two coats. I'm glad I suckered myself into buying this summer red beauty. This is two coats.
