NYX Girls Frizz Spots


NYX Girls Frizz Spots is a yummy holographic and silver glitter in a jelly black base. Here shown is 2 coats over black :) The glitter is very bright and contrasts over black. Black with holo glitter is always a win for me :) the only thing to be wary of with this nail polish is that it is best to use thin layers, the jelly base takes much longer to dry when used thickly - which is also why it is best to use this over a black creme, the dry time is much faster than using Frizz Spots on its' own. On its' own it takes around 4-5 coats for the black jelly to be opaque. I got mine from BeautyJoint.com along with some other NYX Girls nail polishes and each one that I have tried I have really liked :)

OPI Red my Fortune Cookie with LA Girl Glitter Addict Uninhibited


This was so fun to wear, just one coat of OPI Red my Fortune Cookie and one coat of LA Girl Glitter Addict Uninhibited. Black glitter is so gorgeous :) it looks great over any colour, I wear it all the time, even though the removal process can be a little daunting. The OPI is from the Hong Kong collection, a bright tomato red that leans slightly orange. It has no shimmer, just a plain creme. I would love to find a super bright opaque lipstick in this colour.

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 :)

You need Kleancolor Chunky Holo Black!





See how the big holo pieces reflect red, yellow and green even in the shade? Awesome :) This looks great no matter what light you are in, and thats why I love this so much. This is just one coat of Kleancolor Chunky Holo Black as well, and it wasn't hard to get the holo pieces out either. It has a brown/black tinted smokey base colour in it so you can layer it over other colours and it will darken them a bit. This is over black, I put this over the Glitter Gal Black holo hoping the holo would show through underneath but you can't see it because of the tinted base. Others have said the smell of Kleancolors puts them off, but it doesn't bother me I guess I'm used to it. It goes away when it is dry anyway :)
I got this and others from BeautyJoint.com and I found they have fast shipping and everything was well wrapped, and these cost $1.75 each. I have had 2 packages from BeautyJoint and nothing was ever damaged or missing, so I will buy from them again :)

Color Club Limelight and L.A. Girl Uninhibited



L.A. Girl Glitter Addict Uninhibited is a black glitter! Love it. It has two different sizes of glitter, big and little hexagons. This is one coat of glitter over 4 coats of Color Club Limelight, a standard neon green. I like this neon and it does dry fast so it is worth it. I was doing air brush makeup all day with this on, which left tonnes of colours and black on my hands and nails, and it stood up to the scrubbing. There is still a little black on one nail that won't scrub off, but I'm really impressed it lasted! So after all that is when these photos were taken. I wore this for 3 days and on the third it chipped once in the shower. Not bad for no top coat and a lot of layers :) I got a huge amount of compliments on this mani, literally over 30. A lot of people thought at first it was black shatter, which would look awesome with neon green too :)

Glitter Gal Black Holographic vs Color Club Revvvolution

Glitter Gal Black Holographic




This is a very holo holo >.< and a good black, not dark grey. The formula is great, needs 2 thin coats, not far from opaque in one coat, just needs to be evened out. The only down side is the bottles are 9mls, but for me I don't remember ever using up a full bottle of anything. I will definately wear this again :) I love it, it's cosmic looking. You can buy this and others from http://www.glittergal.com.au/ 

Color Club Revvvolution





Not as holographic and a lot lighter, and the formula needed 2 - 3 coats. Revvvolution still is an awesome polish but I much prefer the Glitter Gal. In the shade Revvvolution is a charcoal grey colour, and Glitter Gal Black is black, so for me I would rather have black :)

Nfu-Oh 49 over black






I have stared at my nails ever since I put this on :) so amazing! I am now craving more Nfu-Ohs. This is my first one and I had high hopes for it and it does live up to the hype. It is stunning in every light, or lack of light. Flakies might even beat my fave holos... maybe :) I'll have to get more! I have to find Nfu-Oh 51! One coat of this was definately enough as there is tonnes of flakes but I was fiddling with it so I put on 3 coats over black. It dried quickly and didn't chip for days with no top coat. Perfect :)
