Milani 2014 Gold Label Nail Lacquers: Glitters!

Milani Cosmetics has twelve new polishes out for Spring 2013, creams and glitters.  Since I work at CVS, I got first dibs and grabbed all the new glitter polishes.  These polishes are unlike any I have and I really liked the way they applied and wore.

Love, Angeline Polish: Deep Magic, Stone Table, Always Winter And Never Christmas

Aside from creams, the This Is The End collection also has three sparkly polishes: Deep Magic, Stone Table and Always Winter And Never Christmas.

Deep Magic is full of blue holo glitters in a clear base.

This is two coats -- one is put on regularly, and the other is dabbed on -- over When He Shakes His Mane.

I absolutely love this glitter.  Shades of blue and teal are my favorite to wear.  

Here is a shot of Deep Magic in the bottle.  It's like a pool of sparkles.


Stone Table is a white crelly with the green/purple/blue shimmer (as seen in the other creams) and iridescent glitter.  I really love how this polish ties together the creams and the glitters in this collection.  It kind of reminds me of that shiny cement that can be made a counter top, if that makes any sense.

I did three coats of Stone Table on its own and it was not opaque, but I imagine that one or two over white would do the trick, if that's the look you are going for!

Here it is in direct sunlight.  I like that it almost melts into my fingernails.

Stone Table in the bottle.  This picture gives a really good feel of the different colored shimmer and sparkles.


Look at this!  Always Winter And Never Christmas is a glitter bomb made up of various shapes and sizes of holo glitter, aka TOTALLY AWESOME.

I didn't have black (or other dark-colored) polish with me at the time, so I decided to just put it over Essie In The Cab-ana.  I love the way the bar glitters catch the light.

I did two coats, but you could do more or less depending on how sparkly you want to be!

These polishes are available from Love, Angeline Polish!

Christmas Nails!

I'm really terrible at doing themed nails, only because when I paint my nails I'm not usually thinking about it!  But this year, I tried to do some Christmas-y nails, if only because anything sparkly reminds me of Christmas.  It works out in my brain.  Anyway, this post is of all the nails I did around Christmas time (so be prepared for many pictures!).

Zoya Nail Polish - Mosheen

I came across Mosheen a while ago while at Ulta, and ended up buying it and a few other things because I had a 20% off coupon.  Mosheen is made up of shiny, blue bar glitters and little round iridescent sparkles in a sheer, blue base.

Liquid Glam Lacquer - Fancy Huh?

Liquid Glam Lacquer Fancy Huh? is a multitude of hot pink, purple and black glitters in a milky pink base.  It kind of reminds me of cupcakes, or frosting.  Or maybe cupcakes with frosting.

Zoya - Payton

Oh man, Zoya has done it again!  Payton is a beautiful deep purple-y red (it is described on the website as "galactic cranberry" and I have to say that's quiet accurate) with tiny holographic glitters.

Euphoric Lacquer - Senter of the Universe

 Here I have my very first Euphoric Lacquer nail polish!  It's called Senter of the Universe, which was named after @senteroftheuniverse_nails on Instagram.  (If you don't follow Blair, you really should -- she has awesome nail art and great swatches.)

Bippity Boppity Boo!

I am a HUGE fan of Cinderella.  When I met her at Disney World last year, I'm pretty sure I was more excited than the small children surrounding me (I was 22).  So when I saw this polish I had to get it.

Liquid Glam Lacquer - Lucky Charm

Contrary to its name, this polish was not my Lucky Charm.  All cheesy jokes aside, I really like the polish.  The white base is perfect for the metallic-y glitters that are within.

Trick-or-Treat!

Let me start by saying that I love this polish!  It's another beauty from Liquid Sky Lacquer called Trick or Treat.  I think this is definitely what the inside of a candy bag looks like.

As you can see, it's a glitter bomb!  Just look at it in its glittery glory...

Liquid Sky Lacquer: Witching Hour

I've been so busy with school that I kept putting off posting all of my lovely Halloween polishes from Liquid Sky Lacquer!  But I don't mind extending Halloween into November a bit, since it is my favorite!

Here is Witching Hour!

Fall Foliage

I'm sorry for being MIA the past couple of weeks -- I had two tests and a paper due all within three days of each other.  You know, typical school stress.  But that's no matter!  Today I have Liquid Glam Lacquer's Fall Foliage to show everyone.

Leaf Me Alone

I'm a sucker for plays-on-words, so I HAD to get this polish from Liquid Glam Lacquer.  The fact that it's glitter was simply a plus.

A polish appropriate for this month!

I recently ordered six polishes from Liquid Glam Lacquer and the first one I wanted to post about is called October (which is one of my very favorite months of the year).

Cosmically... awesome!

Today I'm posting about another Emily de Molly polish that I'm sure everyone and their mother has heard of: Cosmic Forces!

Emily de Molly - Dark Forces!

I finally got a chance to wear Dark Forces, a black jelly polish with lots of different shaped holographic glitters.  I love the way the glitters swim in the jelly!

You can thank work for my stump-nail.  I broke it one day, then again a few days later.

Revlon Elusive

Elusive is from the Evening Opulence collection (just like Rich, which I posted earlier this week).  It's a black creme with teal glitters.  It was incredibly hard to capture in pictures.

Revlon Rich

Revlon Rich is from the Evening Opulence collection.  I found it the other day while I was working and I HAD to have it!

June Nail Art Challenge - June 4th - Flowers


Yesterday's nail art was to be flowers.  I kept it sweet and simple with daisies since they are my favorite.

The base is two coats of Lush Lacquer Dream On.
