Pink Week #5: The Final Mani

Nothing To Disclose

I made it a whole week!  One color scheme, no missed posts!  I've got to do this again ;)  I may make this a once a month thing.  Or every other week?  Or... What are some ideas you have?  

For this mani I once again used Color Club Beyond and also: Color Club Halo-graphic, China Glaze Glistening Snow and Zoya Lo. 

I tried to make a bow with Glistening Snow, but it didn't quite translate.  The dots also kind of smeared.  Otherwise, I really like this mani!  I left it on and I really didn't think I would.  

Pink week is over!  Did you like it?  Not?  Only certain parts?  Remember, I'm trying to make my blog better this year, so let me know!  Thanks for stopping :) 

butter LONDON: The Black Knight

Hi everyone!  Today I'm jumping right into it.  I LOVE the polish I'm showing you!  I got this as my "birthday present" for myself.  Really, what that means is that I was broke this year but I ignored that and spent the very few pennies I had.  Really.  I almost didn't make it home from Des Moines that weekend because I *almost* didn't leave enough money for gas.  Sick.  I know.  

Anyway, I was walking around Ulta, trying to decide if I was going to buy anything with my $5 off coupon and I saw it.  At the very bottom of the butter LONDON rack, pushed back slightly (and I would later find out it's because it wasn't supposed to be out yet! LUCKY!)... The butter LONDON Holiday Dressing table set.  I had to have it.  Seriously, it called to me.  I picked it up and put in back down several times.  Finally, I caved and bought it.  I am so so so glad I did! I will be showing you part of it today.  My favorite of the duo: The Black Knight.  Take a look:

Gratuitous bottle shot.  Enlarge to see the various colors.

My fave pic of all of them! Look at the colors in the base! *drool*

Excuse the tip wear *embarassed*

Shows all the colors best

So, how hot is this polish?  It is a two coat black polish with multi-colored glitter (mainly magenta and blue).  When I first bought it, I thought it was just pink and blue glitter, but looking closely there is also green and yellow, red and maybe some orange.  It is a very mysterious polish, and actually very hard to capture!  Those extra colors hide very well when a camera is around!  I actually haven't seen any very accurate pictures, but I hope mine come close!  This is one of the few times I'll recommend you click to enlarge.  At least the second bottle shot if none of the rest!  

Anywhozels... What do you think?  I am in love.  Do you have it?  Let me know your thoughts!  Thanks for looking! 

Rivka Jenny and HITS Tango

Hey all!  Not much to say today, I'll just let you look at all the pretty pictures :)  They are a LITTLE messy.  I didn't notice until I was at work looking at the pictures.... So sorry about that... But otherwise, enjoy!!!

The beautiful holo, Jenny and the flakie are both polishes from my swap with Tata.  I am so incredibly impressed with everything she sent me!  We will be setting up another one soon!  If you have access to Brazilian polishes, I HIGHLY suggest you pick up their holos!  

That's all I have to say, I don't want to ruin it! LOL  Thanks for looking! 

FOTM: Revvvolution vs Franken

Hi guys!  Today I have the last two comparisons that I have.  Color Club Revvvolution is probably the prettiest black I've ever seen.  Without layering, of course.  It has a great formula, thick without being unmanageable and almost a one coater.  If you were careful I'm sure you could manage it.  It has a gorgeous holo that leans green/yellow on me and is pretty linear though not strong.  It's a favorite that I wear frequently in the summer!
My franken, that has no name, is what I imagine MPJ to be... But better!  I've never found a good picture of the original formula, so I can't tell you for sure how close they are but I deff had it in mind.  Who doesn't love an amazing black holo?  Sadly, I don't remember how I made it... I just remember using the old, gloopy, almost gone bottle of ChG's Fairy Dust.  This is THICK.  I add thinner almost every time I use it but it gets thick again!  It needs to coats to be opaque.  This is going to be a favorite for a long time!
Let's look at some pictures!

The sparklies that you see are from the Fairy Dust

Revvvolution

Can you see that linear green/blue coming out?

Green peaking out

You can see the blue really well here

And there it is again, though not as good.

So, what do you guys think of this?  I am IN LOVE.  It isn't the strongest, but it is linear and it IS really pretty!  What should I call it?  Ideas?  Thanks for looking!
