Nfu-Oh 56

Whenever I apply a Nfu-Oh nail polish I am reminded of why I am obsessed with these nail polishes, they look so incredible! The colours that the flakes reflect are so gorgeous, and it looks great in every light. The duochrome shows up well in low light. This is two coats of Nfu-Oh 56 over a plain black creme. Wearing black underneath helps to bring out the colours of the multisized flakes; olive green, teal, and cobalt blue. This looks much better in person. I get many compliments whenever I wear these. Nfu-Oh flakies make me happy... I want all of them... ^_^

OPI Bright Lights Big Color

OPI Bright Lights Big Color is from their Brights Collection. It is a peachy coral, with a golden yellow shimmer which makes it gorgeous. It has great formula and takes two coats to reach full opacity. It would look better on someone with darker skin than mine, but I still love that shimmer :) magic!

OPI Give Me a Coral Sometime

Give Me a Coral Sometime was a part of the OPI Retro Fun in the Sun collection of Summer 2008. The formula was a bit sheer so took 3 coats, but it ends up looking really juicey and glossy. The colour shifts slightly with orange and pink and also has a little blue flash to it. I'm not a fan of corals on me but this would be my favourite one as it is a bit different :)

Milani Cyberspace

The Milani 3D Holographic Collection is a hit for me. They are so cheap and they look awesome. Easy formula to apply with 2 - 3 smooth coats. They remind me of My Little Pony :) super sparkley and pretty!

Zoya Charla

I love this nail polish :) on a very pale person like me it looks great in reality and I can imagine it looks beautiful on tan people as well. And of course it reminds everyone of mermaids! It took 3 coats as it is not very opaque, but the coats go on smooth and dry quickly so it is no hassle :) also Charla looks great for a pedicure. From the Zoya Sparkle Collection - well worth buying!

ORLY Royal Navy

ORLY Royal Navy is a must have :) I love how super bright it is, it gets so many compliments! It wasn't fully opaque on me after 3 coats so next time I would wear a nail foundation. The only problem I had was the tiny blue glitter settles in areas of the bottle and is very hard to get it to move from there, so there wasn't much that came out. I shaked and shaked and left it for a bit but didn't want to move! Did any of you find that? Otherwise it is a top colour and love it :)

OPI Ranbow Connection vs Milani Gems and NYX Girls Carnival

There is a very clear winner out of these three!

NYX Girls Carnival

OPI Rainbow Connection

Milani Gems

On the nail after a day of wear - no top coat

Thumb and index NYX Carnival, middle Milani Gems, Ring and pinky OPI Rainbow Connection all one coat over black

Rainbow Connection was definately the best for me! Application was easiest as the brush was big enough to do only a couple of brushstrokes, and since there was so much glitter it made it easier with the big brush. It dried fastest and didn't chip, i did a full mani with it and it held up well. Carnival was my least fave, the clear base with the glitter doesn't dry quickly and was dentable for a long time, the brush was smaller which is fine for a creme but not this glitter, it was a bit difficult. The glitter was most sparse in carnival and didn't last as well for me when i did a full mani with it, I had to take it off pretty quickly. Gems was 2nd best, it dried well and didn't last as long as long as the OPI but went on easy enough and had a good amount of glitter :)

This is when I tried Carnival over OPI Yo-ga ta get this Blue, I like it, it just took too long to dry. But I guess that is what fast dry top coats are for :)
