IsaDora Violet


Just a quick pic of IsaDora Violet. I love this for 3 reasons -
1. It reminds me of Sailor Mars
2. It has a jelly blurple base
3. It was a present :) they are always the best type of nail polishes
Shown is two coats, the base is a little watery so isn't super easy around the cuticles but not too bad. The magenta shimmer is beautiful and pops against the bluer jelly like base. In person there is a little more visible nail line than this picture shows. And it dries super shiny :) a good go-to purple for me. <3

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 :)

So cute :) OPI Passion and Nicole by OPI Step to the beat of my heart



3 coats of OPI Passion and 1 coat of Nicole by OPI Step to the Beat of my <3
Love both these polishes, Passion is a very flattering sheer jelly and I adore the cute pink and purple holo hearts. I loved this mani :)
The hearts stay on VERY well, it's actually hard to get them off! I put them on my toes sometimes and they don't budge at all. I would love to try Nicoles other heart glitters!

ORLY Fowl Play from Birds of a Feather Collection




The last thing I expected from Orly was a dark red based purple jelly with opal flakes and blue glitter - how awesome!
This is 3 coats though I should have left it at 2, it looked more jellyish and less dark. The formula was a bit thick so it was a little hard to apply around the edges and above the cuticles. I'd be surprised if anyone had a dupe thats for sure, though it would be easy enough to franken if you have an Nfu-Oh like number 49, a dark purple jelly, and a little blue glitter. The blue really makes it unique, it's so pretty :)
It chipped easily for me though so I recommend using a good top coat :) I also want to try Nite Owl from this collection, it looks beautiful!
