Deep Purple Glass with Flower Accent Nail

Wandering around the mall today I found this delightful shade from Nicole by OPI called I'm a Pool for Love.  Deep purple, loads of glass flecks, it looks like glass and I love it.  Opaque in two coats as well which is nice.  And since I can't leave anything alone, I added an accent nail with Bundle Monster plate 16.  Check it:

  1. Ok, being a fellow polish addict but also a knitter/ crocheter, I have to take a stab at the yarn you're holding: the rainbow on, is it LB amazing? (looks too even to be Noro). & the gray... Paton's Classic Wool? I've been scrolling through your whole blog over the last few days, hahaha... your glitter manis are incredible! I'm planning on trying it out in the future, though something tells me I'd only get through an accent nail or two...

    1. P.s... I have a nail blog too, but it's not under this account... not to link spam, but it's rocksaltynails.blogspot.com. I just started it a few weeks ago. Woot!

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 biggest tag on y

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:
