Revlon Orient Express

Gorgeous limited edition color. Went out and bought another as a gift since my mom said it reminded her of the color my grandmother always wore.

Bambi and Jesse's Girl-Beach Baby

I'm not sure why I'm posting this, I never got a good picture, but this was way neon pink.  Crazy!  I felt like I had to be in a certain mood to wear it.  It's the only neon I own, maybe there will be another added after this first adventure with them.

Summer Rolls, Sally Hansen HD-Hi-Res and OPI Black Shatter

This is the summer of summer rolls.  So addicting, and healthy!  Hi-Res really does glow from within as the first picture shows.  I added OPI Black Shatter because I'm an addict, especially to the black ones.  I have the China Glaze, OPI and Sally Hansen black crackle/shatter.  Back-ups :)

Essie-Demure Vixen and China Glaze Crackle Latticed Lilac

Demure Vixen gives me lobster claws.  It will be going to live with one of my best friends!  I added Latticed Lilac on top, and it's better but it did not crackle too well.  My relationship with crackle, love you and hate you.  So frustrating that I think I've figured out what to do to have it crack (always shake before applying) but it may be that the fact that I live without central air right now wreaks too much havoc.

China Glaze-Sexy Sillhouette

Great feisty pink for summer!  I got this in a blog sale and I'm so glad I did.  It needed a number of coats, but well worth it.  Hrm, I think I need to put this on my toes now!

Sally Hansen-Bubblegum Pink and OPI-The One That Got Away

Bubblegum pink is exactly that.  It was a bit thick since it's a cream, but I'm used to that.  I don't feel the need for another barbie pink though, this one will do.  Bonus:  One of my favorite pictures of my bugaboo.  Gah, I love him so!

OPI-The One That Got Away

Ugh, horrible application, sorry!  So...I'm pretty sure this is The One That Got Away...but it could also be Ali's Big Break.  Oopsy. I've compared them though and I'm almost totally positive I've got it right.  Love it.  Great application.  OPI does this color the best.

Borghese Tempesta Black and Paradiso Pink

I love Borghese polishes.  They always go on well and I love the length and thickness of the brush. I have the least clean up when I use their polishes.  I just wish that they had more colors.

Uh, sorry about not cleaning up first!  I always forget and am anxious to take photos ASAP.

I then added Cover Girl's City Lights.  A must have for everyone and easy enough to find!  It layers great to make any polish into holo goodness.

In the shade.

Blurred to show the bling.

Toes on socks.  Girls on film.

It's a slight orange/coral leaning pink.  And again, oopsy on the no clean up.

Trying to get my Vitamin D in and hope that the suns rays add some health.  Look at how white my legs are compared to my hands!

My Attempts to Dupe Deborah Lippman's Glitter In The Air

 The main players in my first one.  I then made a light blue and light pink base ones.

Pretty good dupe if you ask me and a whole lot cheaper!

My thumb is Sally Hansen Grey Area which I added a few drops to the original Glitter In The Air Dupe.  Here you can see the other two dupes on my index and middle finger.  I had China Glaze Heli-Yum on my pinky with Sally Hansen Hidden Treasure on top.  I was just messing around with the polish on my desk.

The next day they were able to play in the sun and I did a full manicure with the light blue one, which will be up tomorrow!  All in all, I would call my frankens a success.

Zoya-Alegra

The last picture captures Alegra's beauty the best.  There's not much to say that hasn't said before.  It's beautiful in application and on!

Bright nails, dreary day! Sinful Colors-Scandal

I didn't think I liked jellies.  I was wrong.  Scandal is a newer polish that was released with all of those pinks, I haven't seen it recently but I imagine it will pop up again.  Application was meh, but recently that's been my experience with Sinful Colors and they used to be fine for me.  I am hoping this polish lifts my mood some, it's a dreary day and I'm dreading surgery next week although it shouldn't be a big deal and the payoff is that I feel better.  So on with pink and positivity!  Ugh.

OPI-Bubble Bath and Confetti-Dreamdate

Dear OPI Bubble Bath,

You are beautiful for the nude pink that you are.  However, this is not my style and wearing you challenged me and made me feel weird.  I then added Confetti's Dreamdate on top, which was beautiful and will be a great layering polish.  Dreamdate will be loved.  Bubble Bath will be used as a base for sheer colors or glitters....or given away, so be on your best behavior.
