NOTD Gosh – 550 Purple Heart

A duo chrome! My first one and I could not capture it, except on one picture and that wasn’t even on the nails.. oh shoot! 🙁 But I really like that’s its purple most of the time 😉 Sorry about the crappy pictures, all was taken at night with a desk lamp or flash 🙁 Applies really good with 1-1½ coat 😀

Orly – Lemonade, Pixy Stix and Snowcone *Updated*

I recently received half of the Orly Sweet collection* and I really like them. Pastel colors seems to go very well with my skintone. Lemonade and Snowcone needed 2 coats for coverage and Pixy Stix needed 3. I hope I can reswatch these when we get some sun again, so sorry for the bad pics..

Lemonade, I am not much of a yellow polish girl but this one may have hit the nail. I can see my self with this when summer comes around.. Maybe just on the toes but still! 😛

Snowcone and a rare pic of my right hand(yes I have one!) VERY nice light blue color, really like this one. (yikes on the cuticles, winter is hard on the skin)

Pixy Stix, lovely light pink color. But a bit sheer on the first coat. Updated with a pic taken inside with a normal office lamp

*Collection was sent to me from the manufacturer.

And I am sorry for MIA these last couple of days, just needed some time off 😉 And I don’t think I will be back in full gear again before next week. Oh and have seen I have been tagged and I will do them 😉

Once upon a time

there was a book filled with polish swatches…

Every time I get a new polish I make a quick swatch in this little book just so I know how it looks 😀 This was btw. what I was doing when I was sick with my eye a month ago 😛 also an easy way to keep a hold on how many polishes I got since theres 5 swatches on every page 🙂 Well except the one we can see here that have 6 😛 Its the new Orly’s I got 😀 I am geek sorry ! 😛
