China Glaze-Poinsettia

Great red, getting there, but still not the complete red I need. Still on the hunt.

Cover Girl Royal Red

Old polish of mine, but my favorite red. Trying to find the replacement but haven't found it yet.

Barielle Elle's Spells

Totally worth the hype.

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.

Sally Hansen-All Fired Up

Thinner than I would like but still a beautiful orange red. Got it for 50% off at CVS.

Claire's Mood Polish-Daring/Innocent, Rimmel-Out There and OPI-Red Shatter









I am not a fan of the innocent/yellow color of this mani, but watching colors change is fun.  I'm going to have to try it again in the winter so it will be grey most of the time!

Sinful Colors-Folly


Folly is a beautiful color.  Not much to say!  I do wish I could do this braid myself, I love the look of a fish tail!

Revlon-Cherries In The Snow


I thought this would look better on me than it did.  I had this color as a lipstick in high school and loved it.  I got this on major sale, not sure if I'm going to keep it or not.  And below...well, it cracked me up when I saw this on a bathroom stall.

OPI-Bogota Blackberry



Beautiful color.  No wonder Barbara Streisand loves it!  My mom loves it too, it's been on her toes forever now and she doesn't want another color.  This is a great match for her skin tone, and mine as well.  It has to be a favorite because of that!

Zoya-Sooki and Sinful Colors-Why Not





Well, the colors are bold and beautiful but neither are for me.  Sooki is not a good red match for my skin, although it is a great tomato cream red.  Why Not pissed me off with all the crazy staining, I have never had a polish stain like this one did.  It ticked me off so much that it was sent in for the Zoya exchange, I didn't feel I could pass it on to others and have the stain ghost follow me.

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.

OPI-Ali's Big Break


These pictures don't do this color justice.  Got this in a blog sale and I'm so glad I did!  It's a silent stunner for me.

Essie-Material Girl



A beautiful dark red, vampy jelly.  Just what I needed after having no polish for a week!

This was a pic that was forgotten.  I added the gray crackle on top of Sinful Colors-Scandal.  


A lot of polishing on wheels happened week before last.  And that's not all of them.  Craziness!

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!

Revlon-Red Hot Tamale and Toooooooes!


This is a pretty complex red.  At least to me.  I'm surprised.  It's a bright tomato red but then it has a pink tone to it as well as an orange one!  What the heck?!  Either way, I like it on me way more than I thought.  I put it on my toes since they aren't seeing much daylight and I figured if I didn't like the color, no big deal.  I'm going to have to try this soon as a full manicure-especially on a dreary day.  I'm hoping that I just mean weather.  I'm tired of feeling emotionally and physically ill.  Viva the bright innards...or something!

Cranky Girlz Nail Polish





Chunky Girlz nail polish is a new one for me.  Gifted from a BFF.  It's unnamed but a beautiful burgundy color.  I then added Sally Hansen's Diamonds as a top coat.  One of my favorites.  It makes everything have a nice shimmer.  A top coat everyone should have.
