OPI Nicki Minaj Quick Comparison Shots

2012-02-13T09:00:00.000-05:00

Just a couple of quick OPI Nicki Minaj comparisons for you today. First we have the non-dupes. Above left to right: OPI Sparrow Me The Drama, OPI Pink Friday, OPI Metallic 4 Life, China Glaze Tinsel Town. OPI Sparrow Me The Drama is a darker, dustier rose creme. Pink Friday is a brighter, clean bubblegum pink.

OPI Metallic 4 Life has a darker base and larger, more obvious glitter. China Glaze Tinsel Town is a lighter gray base with more pieces of fine glitter, and less large pieces of glitter.

Above left to right: OPI Did It On 'Em, OPI Who The Shrek Are You?, OPI Fly, China Glaze Shower Together. These are a bit more alike than I thought they would be. OPI Did It On 'Em is slightly more yellow and lighter, while Who The Shrek Are You? is darker and more green.

left: OPI Did It On 'Em, right: OPI Who The Shrek Are You?

OPI Fly is lighter and more green-leaning than China Glaze Shower Together. Shower Together is more blue and noticeably darker, but they are more similar on the nail than they are in the bottles.

For my taste, these are different enough to own all of them. For the less enthusiastic polish collector, you may have just eliminated something from your wish list.

The OPI Nicki Minaj collection is available now at professional salons!

OPI Continues To Nail It at NYFW!

2012-02-11T20:00:00.000-05:00

Another OPI New York Fashion Week update for you! Jason Wu is one of my "if I were richer, I'd buy all of his clothes" favorite designers. I also am loving the use of a bold dark color, OPI Roadhouse Blues, on the runway! All images courtesy of OPI.

"Yesterday, OPI was used on nails for the Jason Wu and Rebecca Taylor fall/winter shows at St. John’s Center Studios and Lincoln Center! For Jason Wu, models’ nails were painted with taupe hue, San Tan-tonio. The noticeable neutral complimented clothes in taupe, black and gold with pops of fuchsia and red.

Meanwhile, Road House Blues, a purple-y navy, was painted on models’ nails for Rebecca Taylor to compliment the collection’s dark colors and floral prints.

Celeb attendees of Jason Wu included Shailene Woodley (actress, The Descendants), while Rebecca Taylor’s front row seated Olivia Palermo and Zoe Kravitz."

Wrapping Up OPI Holland for Spring 2012!! (Part 3)

2012-02-11T09:00:00.000-05:00

Kicking off the last four polishes of my OPI Holland swatches is an interested color, OPI Gouda Gouda Two Shoes. Gouda Gouda Two Shoes is a rose color with small delicate shimmer. In some lights it looks more rose, others more brown and others I get a little touch of mauve in there. It looks more like the pictures below, taken in sunlight, than the first picture, which was taken in shade.

See the pretty tiny shimmers? They add a nice bit of dimension to this polish. The formula on this was very nice. This is two coats, and I didn't have any streaking troubles either. This is not the kind of color I normally gravitate towards, but it looks very pretty on the nails. If you needed a flattering, kind of subdued color and are tired of just plain nudes, I would recommend Gouda Gouda Two Shoes.

Next up is I Have a Herring Problem, a green-blue with large golden shimmer particles. This reminds me of denim. I don't see too much green in this polish, it looks mostly blue on me, until I put it right next to I Don't Give A Rotterdam. I Have a Herring Problem is greener, and I Don't Give A Rotterdam is blue with gray tones. Very important: Both have awesome names.

This was a little sheer on the first coat and took three coats for full opacity, but no complaints about the formula. Very pretty polish! My mom actually said "oooohh" when I showed it to her!

Next up is OPI Pedal Faster Suzi!. OPI described this color as a pink lavender shimmer, but I mostly see pink. The shimmer in this is very cool though, the same kind of shimmer that is in I Have A Herring Problem and I Don't Give a Rotterdam. It looks like silver shimmer here though. Pedal Faster Suzi is a really pretty pink and I don't think I own anything quite like it.

On the down side, I used four coats in these pictures. Three coats still had a touch of VNL and I wanted to see what it looked like without VNL. I love how it looks, but wish it looked like this in just three coats. No streaking problems though, so that's a plus!

Finally, we have OPI I Don't Give A Rotterdam!. I Don't Give A Rotterdam! is a steel-blue with a touch of gray. It contains that large shimmer that I am loving so much lately. I really love this color and will be wearing it or I Have A Herring Problem quite frequently. I do kind of wish they had come out in separate collections though. They seem kind of similar for one collection.

I Don't Give A Rotterdam also needed three coats for full opacity. The formula was good otherwise and it looked lovely with three coats.

Overall, I really enjoyed swatching the OPI Holland collection. There are colors in this collection that will become new "go to" colors for me, just like OPI Russian Navy is for me. I can see myself reaching for A Roll in the Hague, Wooden Shoe Like To Know?, Kiss Me On My Tulips, and Red Lights Ahead, Where? all the time. Those are my top picks for this collection, and that should impress you because THREE of those are cremes! That is a change for me to prefer the cremes over the shimmers! If you haven't seen my swatches, please check them out here and here.

The OPI Holland collection should be available now at Professional Salons, including Beauty Brands, Beauty First, Chatters, Dillard’s, JCPenney, Pure Beauty, Regis, Trade Secret, and ULTA, for $8.50 ($9.95 CAN) suggested retail for each Nail Lacquer.

OPI at NY Fashion Week!!

2012-02-10T09:00:00.000-05:00

A couple of fashion week updates for ya! All images courtesy of OPI.

From Lauren Moffatt-

"OPI has kicked off the Fall 2012 shows doing the nails for Lauren Moffatt’s presentation at The Old School (a Catholic school turned events space) this morning! The bright orange hue, A Good Man-darin Is Hard to Find (image attached) was used on models’ nails. Nails were made short and squoval (square and oval ) to give fall looks the right pop of bright color. Orange will continue to a big color for nails throughout the year!"

From BCBG Max Azria-

"The Fall 2012 shows are well underway with OPI doing nails for its second show, BCBG Max Azria this morning at Lincoln Center! Models’ nails were painted with Passion for a nude look that complimented the neutral color blocking with pops of color in the clothes."

Part Two of OPI Spring 2012 Holland Collection!

2012-02-09T16:37:00.001-05:00

Connecticut is continuing to have weird spring-like weather, and I'm continuing on today with part two of my OPI Holland swatches!! If you missed Part One, please check it out here. Let's kick this post off with a lovely purple chock full of golden shimmer, OPI Dutch 'Ya Just Love OPI?. Dutch 'Ya Just Love OPI? is a beautiful shade of purple, and being a lover of golden shimmer, I love this color a lot. If this color is looking familiar to you, you may be thinking of Zoya Tru, also new for spring 2012.

I used three coats of OPI Dutch 'Ya Just Love OPI? in these pictures. There were a few random streaks at two coats, so I wanted the third to smooth it out. I think if you waited the first coat to dry completely, you wouldn't have the streaking problem (more on that in a minute), and the polish is opaque enough in two coats.

Next up is OPI A Roll in the Hague, one of my most anticipated polishes from this collection. I LOVE orange polish and am always looking for new ones, so I was definitely excited about this one. A Roll in the Hague did not disappoint. It is a really really bright red-based orange that is not neon, but still super bright and fun. It's also nice and glossy looking alone for those of you who hate top coat (although these pictures were taken with top coat).

The formula of A Roll in the Hague was like the formula of the cremes in part one, just lovely! Smooth application and fully opaque in two coats. I can't believe I'm loving the cremes in this collection so much! I'm usually such a creme hater.

I was also really looking forward to OPI Vampsterdam. Vampsterdam is a kind of frosty deep purple, very vampy! Scrangie noted that it looks like something OPI would have done a long time ago, and I think that's why I like it a lot. It looks like an older OPI to me. I never mind/sometimes really like frost finishes, I know some people really hate them though.

Vampsterdam showed some signs of wanting to be a little streaky (like Dutch 'Ya Just Love OPI?), so I decided to let it dry completely in between coats. It applied pretty smoothly after that, so it just needs a little more patience than the cremes. This was three coats.

OPI Wooden Shoe Like To Know? is a GORGEOUS chocolate brown with tons of gold shimmer. This is exactly how I like my chocolate brown polishes! So pretty!! It reminds me a bit of an older FAVORITE OPI of mine, Route Beer Float. Route Beer Float is much paler, like a light milk chocolate, while Wooden Shoe Like To Know? is rich and extra tasty.

Yum, now I want chocolate!!! I decided to let this polish dry in between coats as well, so the finish was lovely and even. This is three coats, but I could have done two slightly thicker ones. My first coat was very thin. This is so gorgeous, especially in the sun!!

Part Two of my OPI Holland swatches contains some serious winners for me. I LOVE A Roll in the Hague and Wooden Shoe Like To Know?. I really like Vampsterdam a lot as well and the beautiful Dutch 'Ya Just Love OPI? is perfect for spring as well.

The OPI Holland collection should be available now at Professional Salons, including Beauty Brands, Beauty First, Chatters, Dillard’s, JCPenney, Pure Beauty, Regis, Trade Secret, and ULTA, for $8.50 ($9.95 CAN) suggested retail for each Nail Lacquer.

OPI Holland Part I: Spring Has (sorta) Sprung!!

2012-02-05T19:02:00.002-05:00

Connecticut has been having unseasonably warm weather this winter. In fact, it leaves me wondering if it is even winter at all! Now that OPI's Spring 2012 Holland collection is out, I think my brain is permanently in spring mode. The OPI spring collection is very near and dear to my heart. OPI Russia was the first collection I actually went all over town stalking like a maniac (I NEEDED Russian Navy), so each spring, I get super excited for the spring OPI polishes. Holland is definitely fitting my need for springy colors right now!!

Kiss Me On My Tulips is a gorgeous bright blue-pink creme. I am going to wear this on my toes immediately!! It's so happy and reminds me of flowers. Despite owning an entire Helmer drawer of pinks, I couldn't dupe this exactly. Many shades I own are dustier, or just a different tone altogether. Kiss Me On My Tulips is definitely the prettiest pink I've seen in awhile. It helps that this is my dance school's color!!

Kiss Me On My Tulips applied flawlessly. This is two coats, and I can see myself wearing just one coat on a day that I'm in a rush. I will definitely be wearing this one often, when I need cheering up!

Red Lights Ahead... Where? is a very coral-leaning red. I am SUCH a sucker for coral reds. They look much more flattering on me than standard blue-reds, plus I just love anything with "coral" in the description. Just from first glances, this looks less bright than OPI On Collins Ave, another coral red that comes to mind, but I will compare them closer soon.

Red Lights Ahead... Where? was another flawless two-coater. No complaints with the formula at all. Look at how smooth it is in the macro shot above. This will also be on my toes all spring/summer.

Thanks A WindMillion is a pretty, soothing, sea green creme. I love the name of this a lot, I'm glad to see this collection has some great, classic OPI names. Thanks A WindMillion is a little grayed out, but definitely maintains a green feeling. It reminds me of seaglass, even though seaglass really doesn't come in the color.

Thanks A Windmillion only needed two coats and applied smoothly as well. I hear this is pretty similar to Zoya Bevin (again, will compare soon), but I needed three coats for Bevin and only two for Thanks A Windmillion, if that factors into your decision of which one to buy.

Did You 'ear About Van Gogh? is not the kind of color I'd normally get excited about, but I have to say, I am thoroughly impressed. Look at how amazingly smooth it is!!! This kind of grayed-out beige is very popular right now, but sometimes they make my hands look dead. Did You 'ear About Van Gogh did not, I actually love how it looked! I actually might wear this as the first full mani from this collection (gasp! Me, wear a neutral first???).

This is only two coats, which shocks me, because I can NEVER get lights cremes to be even, opaque, and smooth in two coats. The formula was delicious. I probably would wear neutrals more if they were all like this.

The first four polishes I tried from the OPI Holland collection are total wins in regard to the formula, opacity, and application. You may want to check your stash for dupes, as they aren't completely new colors. If you are debating between one or more of these and their dupe in another brand, go for these. Two coats and no fuss= more time to buy polish!

The OPI Holland collection will be available February 8, 2012, at Professional Salons, including Beauty Brands, Beauty First, Chatters, Dillard’s, JCPenney, Pure Beauty, Regis, Trade Secret, and ULTA, for $8.50 ($9.95 CAN) suggested retail for each Nail Lacquer.

OPI Nicki Minaj Collection Part Two!

2012-02-03T09:00:00.000-05:00

OPI Fly

Let's start Part Two of the OPI Nicki Minaj collection off with a bang! OPI Fly is a bright and happy teal creme. Is it similar to other polishes in existence? Probably. Do I still love it? YES! Fly is more green than the picture above shows. The shot below is closer, but still a bit too blue. It is definitely a great mix of both blue and green.

OPI Fly

Fly applied perfectly. This is two coats and it went on like butter. It's also very shiny all by itself. These shots of Fly are all without top coat. If you don't have a polish like this already, I highly recommend Fly. Lovely formula, lovely color.

OPI Fly

OPI Save Me over OPI Fly

Next up in the collection, we have the highly anticipated Save Me. Save Me is a great song, by the way, so check it out if you like Nicki Minaj. Save Me the nail polish is a very unique mix of square silver glitter and holographic bar glitter in a clear base. I am showing it to you with one coat layered over OPI Fly, and also by itself, so you can really appreciate it's beauty.

OPI Save Me over OPI Fly

Holo bar glitter is just like a party on the nail, isn't it??

OPI Save Me over OPI Fly

OPI Save Me

Here we have Save Me all by itself. This is three coats and it looked more opaque in person actually. The small square silver glitter does a pretty good job of covering the nail. Look at all of the different colors the bar glitter is in this picture! So cool!

OPI Save Me

Bar glitter is usually kind of hard to control on the nail. It was very easy to get tons of bar glitter onto my nails with Save Me, no special application techniques needed. Sometimes, you have to push a piece of glitter that is hanging over your free edge back onto the nail though, but that is 100% typical with every bar glitter polish ever. It's just the nature of the ~~beast~~ beauty.

OPI Save Me

That macro shot makes me drool a little, I won't lie to you!

OPI Save Me

OPI Super Bass Shatter over OPI Save Me

Just for fun, I put Super Bass Shatter over Save Me. It's cute looking! Love how the holo bar glitter peeks through!

OPI Super Bass Shatter over OPI Save Me

OPI Metallic 4 Life

Gahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh! OPI Metallic 4 Life=LOVEEEEEEEE. Metallic 4 Life is SO cool. This is my favorite polish from the Nicki Minaj collection and one of my favorites of 2012 so far! Some people guessed this might resemble China Glaze Tinsel Town, but there are some key differences that make me like this one better. First of all, the base is much darker, more black than gray. So where the silver glitter in Tinsel Town fades into the gray base, the silver glitter in Metallic 4 Life really POPS against the darker base. The second difference is that Metallic 4 Life has three different kinds of glitter, whereas Tinsel Town only has two. DUH, THREE KINDS OF GLITTER= BETTER.

OPI Metallic 4 Life

Metallic 4 Life has small square silver glitter, medium silver hex glitter, and large silver hex glitter. Very cool.

OPI Metallic 4 Life

The formula of Metallic 4 Life was very good for the most part. This is three coats, but I would wear just two if I weren't photographing it. You can see a little VNL, especially on the middle nail, but I think that if the base were not jelly-like, the glitter would get lost. I love the way the glitter stands out, so the VNL doesn't bother me.

OPI Metallic 4 Life

Now yesterday I mentioned that I would tell you what I wore first from this collection. I was torn between Metallic 4 Life and Did It On Em under Super Bass Shatter, so it was going to be a tough choice. So..... I picked Metallic 4 Life, with Did It On Em/Super Bass Shatter on my thumbnails!! It looked great together and I might do it again with the shatter combo on my ring fingers instead.

Overall, I like this collection a lot and I gained a few new favorites in my collection. I think it does Nicki Minaj's crazy and varied style justice! If you can only buy one polish from this collection, I would definitely pick Metallic 4 Life.

The OPI Nicki Minaj collection is available now at Professional Salons, including Beauty Brands, Ulta, Trade Secret and JC Penney. You can visit OPI.com to find out where to buy OPI.

OPI Nicki Minaj Collection Part One!!!!

2012-02-02T17:07:00.001-05:00

OPI Did It On Em

Let's talk Nicki Minaj for a hot second. Now, if you haven't heard of Nicki Minaj, she is an extremely successful recording artist with a penchant for weird outfits and hair. Incidentally, if you haven't heard of Ms. Minaj, I'd like to know more about the rock you've been living under. Is it cozy? Does it get cold at night?

OPI Did It On Em

All joking aside though, Nicki Minaj happens to be a favorite female celebrity of mine. I'm not much for the whole celebrity thing. I am not a fan of women who stand quietly, look pretty and dainty, and behave well all of the time. I am, however, a fan of loud, outspoken women who like to look hot, but also don't mind rocking a WEIRD outfit. Like Nicki Minaj's all leopard number, featuring a 2 foot tall leopard print beehive. If you are comfortable wearing outfits like this, I like you!

OPI Did It On Em

Moving back to the OPI Nicki Minaj collection now, we're starting off with OPI Did It On Em, a bright chartreuse creme. I love chartreuse, so I knew I would love this. Just from memory, I'd say this is somewhere in between OPI Who The Shrek Are You? and Fiercely Fiona. It's less green, more yellow, and lighter than Shrek, but less yellow than Fiercely Fiona. In any case, I see a need for it in my collection of strange green/yellow cremes.

OPI Did It On Em

Any polish with yellow in it can go the streaky route, but not Did It On Em. It applied really nicely, with no extra effort. It was very self-leveling too, so a few times I thought it would streak, but it smoothed right out by itself. I used three coats.

OPI Super Bass Shatter over OPI Did It On Em

Next up in the Nicki Minaj collection is Super Bass Shatter, a burgundy purple shimmer shatter polish. If you haven't already guessed, each polish in this collection is named after a Nicki Minaj song. Super Bass happens to be my favorite Nicki song. I loved this song when her Pink Friday album first came out, before it was released as a single. I'm happy to say that the song's namesake polish is really lovely!!

OPI Super Bass Shatter over OPI Did It On Em

OPI's shatters have been my favorite variety of crackle polish right from the get go. They are so easy to apply and shatter perfectly. If you want a more random look, just apply the polish in a different direction, or in a pattern. Super Bass Shatter worked superbly, breaking apart in seconds. I always have a favorite nail when I use shatters, and this time it's my middle finger! I like that weird middle crack that looks like an upside down cat arching it's back. I also LOVE this chartreuse and burgundy color combination!

OPI Super Bass Shatter over OPI Did It On Em

OPI Pink Friday

OPI Pink Friday is a medium pink creme, not too light, not too dark and not too blue-leaning either. I could not accurately capture this color and I'm not too sure why. The above picture makes it look too pastel. It's brighter than that, but not actually a bright.

OPI Pink Friday

This close-up is a better picture of the color, but it's a bit less blue-toned than this. The pictures below were taken with flash and are the closest I got to the actual color. The polish is still a tad brighter than this though, not pastel, but definitely bubblegum pink.

OPI Pink Friday

Pink Friday also had really nice application. It was quite pigmented, this is only two coats! It was also not streaky, unlike other pink cremes I own. I am always looking for a pigmented bubblegum pink creme that isn't streaky, and it looks like I have finally found it!! My mom will really like this one, I bet she'll be wearing it in a day or two. I'm not big on pink, but I really like this one.

OPI Pink Friday

OPI Super Bass Shatter over OPI Pink Friday

Super Bass Shatter looks really excellent over Pink Friday as well. This is the next look I'll be sporting from this collection (to hear what the first one was, tune in to Part Two tomorrow!!).

OPI Super Bass Shatter over OPI Pink Friday

This time my favorite is my ring finger!! Love that weird shape there!

OPI Super Bass Shatter over OPI Pink Friday

I will have Part Two of this collection for your viewing pleasure tomorrow, as well as my final thoughts on the collection. So far, I'd say it's full of awesomesauce.

Nicole by OPI Announces TONS of New Goodies!!!

2012-02-01T11:43:00.001-05:00

I received this info about the excellent new collections coming out from Nicole by OPI!! The last few collections they released really impressed me, and these look promising!

China Glaze Passion In the Pacific

2012-01-31T09:00:00.000-05:00

China Glaze Passion in the Pacific is an older China Glaze polish that has been sitting in my untrieds drawer for quite awhile now. It was originally from the Fiji Fling collection. Fiji Fling also included Coconut Kiss, a polish that keep "almost buying" every time I'm at Ulta or Sally. Really, I need to just buy it and stop contemplating.

My bottle of China Glaze Passion in the Pacific is not new, and you can see there were some lumps and bumps in the polish when I applied it. I was really irritated by this, but maybe it was just a temporary problem caused by letting an old polish sit around unused for awhile. I hope so because this color is gorgeous!! This is three coats.

Passion in the Pacific has that gorgeous. very obvious, shimmer that I really love. For some reason, I feel like we haven't seen a lot of polishes with this kind of shimmer. The shimmer polishes out right now seem to be the ones where you can see all of the individual particles of shimmer (don't get me wrong, I love this kind!). But I also love polishes like this one that has that smooth shimmer flowing through all of the polish.

China Glaze Passion in the Pacific is available now at 8ty8beauty.com

Maybelline Color Tattoo 24 Hour Eyeshadows

2012-01-29T09:00:00.000-05:00

Left to right: Fierce and Tangy, Tough As Taupe, Audacious Asphalt

I've already mentioned a few days ago that I don't buy much drugstrore make-up, so I personally found it interesting how excited I was for these Maybelline Color Tattoo 24 Hour Eye Shadows. My relationship with the Color Tattoos was very similar to my typical relationship with a new NARS collection. The first stage is called "stalking" and that may include: reading every review of the product that I can find on various blogs, tweeting about how much I want said product, Googling the name of the product at least once a day to see if any new swatches or reviews have been posted, and making a list of exactly which shades of the product I want to buy.

Left to right: Fierce and Tangy, Tough As Taupe, Audacious Asphalt

The second stage of the relationship is "buying". I don't know about you, but I plan my beauty purchases. Last week, I knew I would be getting paid on Wednesday, and I also happen to get out of work a bit early on Wednesdays. Thus, the plot to stop at CVS on my way home from work began! Sadly, this turned into stopping at CVS, Walgreens AND Rite Aid because CVS was sold out of these babies, and Walgreens didn't even have a display for them. Rite Aid FTW.

Left to right: Fierce and Tangy, Tough As Taupe, Audacious Asphalt

Naturally, being that I am a blogger, the third step is "reviewing". Maybelline's claim that these shadows last 24 hours is a big one. I did not test these for 24 hours yet. I have no need to wear eye shadow for 24 hours normally, EXCEPT when I fly overseas. When I fly overseas, I usually put my make-up on at around 11:30 a.m. at my house. My flight normally departs around 9 p.m. I don't arrive in Europe until approximately 3 or 4 a.m. our time, and normally then have quite a journey to my hotel. So, I do actually probably wear eye shadows for almost 24 hours in that situation. Next time I fly overseas, I will definitely let you know how it goes!

Left to right: Fierce and Tangy, Tough As Taupe, Audacious Asphalt

OK, onto actual reviewing. The pigmentation of these shadows is excellent. For these swatches, I swirled my finger around in maybe two circles, then swept it on to my arm. When you use these in a look on your eyes, you do need to blend quickly, as they set very fast. Once set, they don't budge! I had to use make-up remover to remove these swatches from my arm.

Left to right: Fierce and Tangy, Tough As Taupe, Audacious Asphalt, in shade

So far I have worn Fierce and Tangy and Tough As Taupe. I wore Fierce and Tangy for about 8 hours, and Tough As Taupe for about 10. I did choose to give these a difficult test and wear them each to a two hour dance class. I don't know how much Irish dancing you've ever seen, but let me just say that we SWEAT. A LOT. I can do other forms of exercise (running, pilates, Ab Ripper X) and barely break a sweat, but not so with Irish dance. Consequently, eye shadow normally doesn't hold up so well in my dance classes.

Fierce and Tangy all over the lid, MAC 100 Strokes (burgundy brown) in crease

Both Fierce and Tangy and Tough As Taupe held up admirably. I must mention that there was very very slight creasing in both cases. The creasing occurred in places where I had applied MAC powder shadow over the Maybelline shadows, not where I had the Color Tattoos alone. I have yet to test these on a day that I don't have to be covered in sweat for two hours, but I will be doing that this weekend.

Fierce and Tangy all over the lid, MAC 100 Strokes (burgundy brown) in crease

I think Maybelline did an amazing job with the colors they chose to release these shadows in. I do not own any orange eye shadow like Fierce and Tangy. It is gorgeous!!!! Orange eye shadow may seem scary, but if you have blue or green eyes, you should try it. It will make your eyes REALLY pop. Just use some brown shadow in the crease and lots of black mascara, and it won't look too crazy.

Fierce and Tangy all over the lid, MAC 100 Strokes (burgundy brown) in crease

So far, I am a big fan of these eye shadows! I can't wait to see how they fair in a normal environment, minus the sweating. I want lots of the other colors, including Pomegranate Punk, Bad to the Bronze, and Tenacious Teal. I would have bought them this week if Rite Aid had had them in stock!!

Maybelline Color Tattoo 24 Hour Eye Shadows are available now at a drugstore near you, or online at Ulta.com.

NerdLacquer Hyperspace Bypass

2012-01-27T09:30:00.000-05:00

NerdLacquer is definitely winning all kinds of awards in my personal beauty book. The polish I have for you today, Hyperspace Bypass, is one of the most unique polishes in my collection. I dare you to name a dupe for this polish. Double dog dare!!!

Hyperspace Bypass is a golden yellow jelly-ish base packed with medium yellow glitter, maybe some silver/gold glitter, large yellow gold hex pieces, medium silver holo pieces, and of course, that stunning black glitter. It looks like the black glitter is present in at least two sizes. This polish is incredibly unique-looking. I am obsessed!!

I love yellow polish, but very often it's difficult to work with. Hyperspace Bypass is not, possibly due to the jelly-ness of the base. This is three coats and I am quite happy with the result. NerdLacquer's polishes do not seem to have that problem that some glitter polishes have, where you can't get the "good" glitter to come out of the bottle. I didn't use any special application techniques here, just regular strokes of the brush, and I have all kinds of glitter on my nails!!

If the above picture doesn't make you drool/order this immediately, you need to check to see if you are actually a fan of nail polish. I already own this polish, but that picture makes me want like 20 more bottles!!!!!

I cannot stop gushing over these NerdLacquer polishes. I wore All of Space and Time for about 5 days until this morning, when I took it off to swatch Hyperspace Bypass. Now I'm wearing Hyperspace Bypass as a full mani!! I need to order more NerdLacquer polishes STAT.

NerdLacquer polishes, including Hyperspace Bypass, are available on Etsy.com.

Maybelline Dream Bouncy Blush Cancels My Other Spring Blush Orders!

2012-01-26T16:52:00.002-05:00

OK so here's the deal: I don't really buy drugstore make-up. I spend all of my make-up money on expensive brands like NARS and Chanel, and I end up with little left over for drugstore brands. I think I was about 12 years old the last time I bought a drugstore blush. However, I was hell bent on getting the new Maybelline Color Tattoo 24 Hour Eye Shadows (review coming soon!), and bumped into some reviews of the new Maybelline Dream Bouncy Blushes. So, last night when I purchased three of the Color Tattoo e/s, I grabbed a Dream Bouncy Blush in Candy Coral. The picture above shows Candy Coral swatched heavily on the top and lighter on the bottom.

Now, please bear with me and the pictures I attempted to take of me wearing this blush. I am adept at nail swatch pictures, and I do OK with arm swatches of make-up, but I can not for the life of me figure out how to take good face pictures of myself without looking like an alien. In these pictures I am wearing Candy Coral on my cheeks. It looked much brighter in person, but still looked natural and pretty.

I think you can see Candy Coral better in this picture taken with flash. However, I look cross-eyed. I promise that I am not, in fact, cross-eyed LOL. But my cheeks are glowing and beautiful, so I had to share this picture!! I'm also wearing Maybelline Color Tattoo e/s in Fierce and Tangy, but more on that later!!

Again, heavily swatched on top, lighter on bottom. I love this blush so much that I could go on for hours and sound like a raving loon. So, to try to consolidate my thoughts, I'm going to do bullet points.

blended

This blush has AMAZING texture. Somewhere between a gel and a creme, but feels light as air on the skin.
Buildable pigmentation. You can wear this blush really sheer, if you are afraid of too much color, or for a lazy day. You can also seriously pump the color up for lots of color! Just apply a few more layers.
Ease of use- Apply with your fingers and blend!
Price- $8 for 5.6g of product
THE COLORS, DUKE, THE COLORS!!!! Currently comes in 10 colors, including the awesome-looking Hot Tamale and Orchid Hush.

These are just a few reasons why I am now obsessed with Maybelline Dream Bouncy Blushes. I will be acquiring the other 9 colors very soon. In fact, all 10 colors are on Ulta.com right now and I have a 20% off code. So I can order all 9 for about $58 + tax!! I paid $50 for just one Chanel spring blush!! I was also intending to order the new YSL Gel blush for $30. But now, I'd rather put that $30 towards almost 4 Dream Bouncy Blushes!

Maybelline Dream Bouncy Blushes are available now at drugstores, or online at Ulta.com!

NerdLacquer All of Time and Space

2012-01-24T08:30:00.000-05:00

You all know by now what a glitter fiend I am, and I do a love unique polishes. Let me tell you, it's hard to get more unique polish than those that NerdLacquer is creating. NerdLacquer is an Etsy store selling custom-blended polish like this beauty, All of Time and Space. All of Time and Space is a seafoam green/blue base filled with very fine silver and purple glitter, medium sized silver glitter, large purple glitter and large silver hex glitter. There might even be more kinds of glitter in there too!

This is three coats of All of Time and Space and you can see a little bit of VNL. You could always layer this over a mint green or pale blue creme, but I like it alone. This applied really well and there was a ton of glitter in every brushstroke.

What sold me on this polish is the unique combination of the pale pastel green with the purple glitter. That's not a combination you see a lot and I love it! NerdLacquer's polishes have very interesting color combinations and I can see myself buying a lot of these. I also ordered Hyperspace Bypass and will be showing you that soon. Gorramit is definitely next on my list, and I think I might order it in this trio, because I want Shiny too!!

Now, it appears that All of Time and Space is currently out of stock, but if you're desperate for it before she officially restocks, I think you can order it in a set of 6 polishes of your choice. There is a note at the top of her page that she is running a little slow on orders, but mine came pretty quickly. NerdLacquers are quite a bit easier to obtain than Lynnderellas, so you should be able to get this polish if you want it!

Let me know if you decide to order anything from NerdLacquer!! I might be obsessed!!

Woohoo!

SinfulColors Why Not? (do a crazy dance?)

2012-01-22T09:00:00.000-05:00

SinfulColors Why Not? is a gorgeous swimming pool blue creme. Why Not? is very bright, but not neon, and nicely pigmented. It also has an extra benefit.

The name reminds me of this song from Hilary Duff's excellent Disney film The Lizzie McGuire movie. Cinematic brilliance, I tell you. Man, I loved that movie. I think I watched it like a month ago (ok, probably kidding with that last bit) (no, I really did watch it about 5 months ago).

Anyway, back to SinfulColors Why Not?. This polish was pretty pigmented, this is two coats. It also applied pretty nicely. It was a tad streaky on the first coat, but evened out with the second. Like I say every time I review a SinfulColors polish, how can you beat $1.99 polish that applies well, only needs two coats, and is a beautiful color?? You can't!!!

So... whyyyy not? Take a crazy chance! Whyyyy not? Do a crazy dance!!!

SinfulColors polishes are available at a Walgreens near you!

Have a Fleck Festival with Zoya!!!

2012-01-20T08:00:00.000-05:00

I was in the mood to sport some flakies over a neutral, and what better way to do so than to sport Zoya's new spring collections?? For my neutral polish, I picked Zoya Cho, a pale vanilla shimmer from the True collection. I applied two coats of Cho for my base.

So then I went to pick out which of the three Zoya Fleck Effects polishes I would use and naturally, I decided to use ALL THREE! I layered on one coat of Zoya Opal, one coat of Zoya Maisie, and finally, one coat of Zoya Chloe.

The final look is super pretty and interesting to look at, but also very soft and subtle. By the way, the sun was shining when I took these, and it looked spring-like, but MAN, it was freezing!!!!!!!!

The Zoya Fleck Effects and True collections are available now online at Zoya.com.

More OPI On The Red Carpet!!

China Glaze GR8 from the OMG Collection!

2012-01-17T08:00:00.000-05:00

Every now and then, blogsales feature amazing treasures for dirt cheap prices. I am always on the lookout for China Glaze OMG and Kaleidoscope polishes. I found China Glaze GR8 at Strych from Pretty in Dayton's blogsale for the low low price of.... FREE!!!!!! She was including GR8 as a throw in if you purchased another polish!! Gasp! I obviously found something else to purchase immediately and requested GR8 as my throw in.

direct sun

GR8 is a gold holo that actually isn't overwhelmingly holographic, but pretty nonetheless. I just really am still mad at myself for not buying the entire OMG and Kaleidoscope collections when I had the chance. I thought mainstream companies would make lots more holos, but obviously, they haven't really. Indoors and in low light, GR8 is only a little bit holo. The holo effect shows up more in sunlight, but it's still pretty subtle.

shade

GR8 applied well, not streaky or difficult at all. I used three coats. It was actually more opaque than I thought it would be. I almost got away with two coats. The formula was a little bit thin, but not runny.

If you have the chance to pick up this polish at a low price, I would recommend getting it. I like gold polish and gold holo polish is always very pretty. I do wish China Glaze would do a collection of real holos again.

Born Pretty Store Design Templates for Nails

2012-01-15T09:00:00.000-05:00

Born Pretty Store, my favorite online source for nail art treats, offered to send me these lovely nail stencils and I couldn't wait to try them! A package of these design templates comes with 10 different designs, 9 are pictured above. The package of 10 different designs is super inexpensive too, it only costs about $4!!

Closer shots of the designs. I think the ones in the top picture, all the way on the left, might be my favorites. I also like the sunburst design below, all the way on the right.

Now, I used the 10th design, a flower, for my first attempt at using these. The flower is probably the most complicated of all of these designs, and I really should have picked an easier one. The flower has all different pieces- a stem, 6 petals, two leaves, and the middle of the flower. This makes all kinds of different places for me to mess up this design LOL. But, along the way, I learned some tips for using the Born Pretty Store stencils that I want to share with you.

I used OPI Sparrow Me The Drama for my base coat and NYC Blackula for the flower. Now, my tips for using these:

Make sure your base polish is COMPLETELY, 160% DRY. If it is not, you will take the base coat off when you remove the stencil. This is why I have no pinkie finger in these pictures.
Make sure the polish you use for the design is COMPLETELY, 200% DRY before you peel off the stencil. I obviously did not, hence the smudging of the petals.
I would cut the edges of the stencils down. I found that the stencil would not lay flat on my nail when part of the edge was over my finger. This made the petals look smudged because the stencil wasn't actually touching my nail.
The package suggests sticking the stencil to your hand first, like you would do with scotch tape when using it for nail art. However, I didn't think these were very sticky to begin with. When I stuck them to my hand first, they wouldn't stick to my nail.

I think if you follow these tips, and maybe if I follow my own tips, your design will come out awesome!! I will be posting the sunburst design next and I think it will come out better, as it doesn't have so many little pieces in the design. Most of my problem here was caused by my impatience and inability to wait until thing are dry.

Overall, I think these nail art stencils are adorable!! They are an easy way to get cool nail art looks without being too talented at nail art. As long as you can wait for polish to dry, you can do amazing looks with these stencils. I can't wait to try the sunburst pattern. I was thinking of doing sunset colors for it too, like an orange sun on a yellow base!!

These Design Templates for Nails are available now on the Born Pretty Store website. They are listed under the Nail Art Stamping category, here is the direct link. And remember, for 10% off at Born Pretty Store, enter code ERJ61.

These stencils were sent to me for review by a representative for Born Pretty Store. OPI Sparrow Me the Drama and NYC Blackula were also sent for review by PR agents for their respective companies. For more information, please read my Disclosure Policy.
