Review: Nail-Venturous Orange You Unique - Yep.

I was really lucky, about two weeks ago I able to get an excellent selection of polishes from Ninja Polish. Sticks 'n' Stones, two Nail-venturous polishes, an A-England and a Jessica.  The one that really stood out for me for being, well, unique was Nail-Venturous Orange You Unique.  I don't think I've ever even seen anything close to this, which makes me really happy cos who needs another red or coral colour.  That doesn't mean I won't buy them if I see one I like so the point is moot but WHATEVERRRRR.

Orange You Unique is a collection of small yellow, white and blue flat glitter in a slightly orange tinted base.  Hot damn is it interesting on.  It almost looks like a colour version of TV static.  I've had this on all day today and I keep staring at it cos I can't quite work out how I feel about it.  Nope, decided, love it cos it's different and that's good with me. 








 The Verdict: I HAVE to find more Nail-Venturous polishes now.  I have Voodoo Doll here to test but being black and white glitter, I want some time to pass between it and Sticks 'n' Stones.  This is so different to everything else out there, try to get it if you can.  I managed to get one more in the 30 seconds her Etsy store was open, looks like imma be stalking that one for a while :)

    It's almost like a citrus themed version of Candy Shop! :D

    I love these! I bought Floam and Voodoo Doll from Ninja Polish but unfortunately missed out on her sale last night. I need these in my life, especially since they're all Louisiana themed. Hehe.

    I think I like Floam better.

    They look like ice cream sprinkles (Hundreds and Thousands for those from the UK.) I love it :D Something I'd struggle to pull off but they're pretty!

Review: Nicole by OPI A Million Sparkles is Accurately Named

It's amazing what you can find when you wander around at night.  My favourite time to go shopping is ridiculously late and I'm extra happy when it pays off.  I've been looking for Nicole by OPI A Million Sparkles for a while now at that couldn't be more up my alley if it tried.  I finally managed to find it in a Shoppers last night and it really does live up to its name. A Million Sparkles is a predominately blue glitter that has an amazing ability to look like a foil after a couple of coats.  Combine that with gold, silver and pink bar glitter and you have a winner.  It's seriously so sparkly I got distracted from what I was saying at lunch today.  Application is decent but you really need four coats to get completely opaque coverage.  That's ok, glitter dries fast.  It's a little rough too but nothing Seche Vite can't fix.  The Verdict:  Yay glitter! If, like me, you like sparklies to the point where it's the big...

Review: Sephora X Outburst

As you can imagine, I was pretty excited when the new Sephora X polishes came out.  Not only were there a million of them, but I could go see them in person, circling the huge stand and singling out my prey.  I'm not the most happy that the good ones are FIFTEEN dollars each but what am I going to do, not buy any?? That's silly.  I have few now but my favourite so far as to be the incredibly Outburst.  LOOK AT IT:

All the ILNP Ultrachromes! Like Shiny Beetles!

Guess what guys, it's not glitter today!  Instead, I have the incredibly amazing ILNP Ultrachrome polishes to show you!  I saw a picture of these on the ILNP site and gasped out loud when I saw the colour shift.  I totally didn't sit for an hour at work, refreshing the page when the preorders went up.  That would be silly.  I was so excited when they arrived as they looked as amazing in the bottle as they did on the site.  I swatched each polish over black, took the photos, but no matter what I tried, I couldn't get the finish to a place where I was satisfied.  I'm sure it's something about the way I was applying it, but there would be little bumps or inconsistencies in the finish and it was annoying.  So I didn't post them.  I gave them another shot in a taped mani and YES THIS IS BETTER LOOK:
