Misa Phazers on Stunning



This is one coat of Misa Phazers on Stunning over a black creme. It is so much brighter over black, it brings out the green, which reminds me very much of OPI Electric Eel. Phazers has a duochrome of a warm brown that leans a bit grey. There is also microglitter in there. This is a very unique colour, I can't say I have ever seen a similar nail polish. When layered on its own it takes 3-4 coats and the effect is more dull, so I would recommend using it over black. From the Misa 2011 Surreal Escape Collection. I purchased this from www.nailsupplies.us , and they still have the collection in stock :)

China Glaze CG in the City over OPI The Show Must Go On




Above is one coat of China Glaze CG in the City over 2 coats of OPI The Show Must Go On, the CG works great as a top coat. I thought I'd start trying out things to wear for halloween :) The Show Must Go On is a great polish and I've worn it many times, which is special for someone with a lot of nail polish. Though I don't have as many as some of you lucky ones :) It's from last year's OPI Burlesque Collection which is my all time favourite collection so far, and I loved the movie.
Here it is on it's own -





The duochrome is preddy >.< I love it
I tried two coats of the CG and it still looked pretty similar, but it lost the duochrome peeping through so I think one coat is good :)

OPI Glam Slam! U.S.

This is the new duo of Serena Williams Glam Slam series, U.S. Pros and Bronze and Love is a Racket
These two are amazing!

Pros and Bronze




This is a layering polish, meant to be layered over Love is a Racket, but looks beautiful on it's own. This is 4 coats, and needs quite a while to dry. It has a strong bronze gold duochrome that almost looks peachy pink and golden yellow. Looks amazing in the light!


Love is a Racket




This is my favourite, a super bright red with pink tones. Looks like a very ripe tomato with a little bit of hot pink :) Formula is great, looks jellyish at one coat and opaque at two. Drys well and lasts too.You could wear it at one coat if you like it a bit see through as it evens out well. The shimmer flakes are bigger than the OPI Burlesque shimmers.


Pros and Bronze over Love is a Racket



And together it makes a beautiful red with gold/bronze duochrome, very shimmery and stunning. This is one coat Pros and Bronze over 2 coats Love is a Racket. I love this set :) I really can't think of any complaints :) perfect! I would love to try Pros and Bronze layered over other colours too - any ideas?
