Orly Goth and Kleancolor Blind Date






This was fun to wear :) Orly Goth is an old fave of mine - a black creme with silver glitter. This is two coats and it dries pretty quickly. I had it on and thought Kleancolor Blind Date might work with it, and I like it. The stars stayed on very well and the clear base it came in dried in average time. It looks uneven in the photos but wasn't noticeable irl. The stars weren't too hard to get out and easy enough to move into place :) some of the stars have imperfections like the silver star on my pinky but it is good for a cheap nail polish, most of them are fine :)

OPI La Paz-itively Hot and Color Club Hot Couture




OPI La Paz-itively Hot is a perfect Barbie pink and a new favourite. Great OPI forumla with 2 coats, This is super pretty and good for super pale people like me. I will wear this again for sure! It has a very slight blue tinted shimmer to it. This reminds me a lot of OPI Pompeii Purple (below) except La Paz-itively Hot is lighter and less magenta in colour and less of a blue flash.


I thought since I was going for a very girlie look I would add Color Club Hot Couture. This is only one coat, it is pretty dense and the colours the glitter reflects are beautiful :) yummy

Kleancolor Holo Chrome






This is the best $1.75 I have spent in awhile :) I love this. Kleancolor Holo Chrome is amazing, and was definately worth finding. This is 2 coats, and even one coat looked nice - jellyish, but even and a nice colour. The holographic glitter is very vibrant, the colours it reflects makes it stand out, even in quite dim light. I also like how it looks in the shade! My mum thought it looks like water with heaps of tiny air bubbles. This nail polish dries well which I wasn't expecting, lurve it :)

Orly SeaGurl from the Birds of a Feather Collection




The formula in the Birds of a Feather Collection is awesome. This is 2 thin coats, but 1 thick coat would be plenty. This didn't chip easily and I like the finish. This is less foil-like than Sweet Peacock and looks a lot like those woodless graphite pencils. It also seems very slightly brown toned. I like it more than I thought I would :) Also excuse the condition of my nails, I had acrylics put on while I was being a client/practise model for someone at our beauty school and took them off on the same day. They aren't too bad but they are peeling from having them removed and buffed down to nothing :)
