Review: Transparent Polish from Witchcraftery Inc.

As I normally do, I was derping around the internet when I came across a polish that claimed to make your nails transparent.  Shenanigans, thought I, I won't be fooled!  Polishes have made a lot of big claims in the past but that's a bit ridiculous.  I couldn't get it out of my head though and when I saw it on sale for $79.99 down from $199, I thought, why not.  It arrived on Friday and I was hesitant to try it as I was sure it was just going to match my skin colour or something.  My mind exploded when it ACTUALLY. MADE. MY NAILS. TRANSPARENT.

Application for this polish was not easy.  First, you had to coat your nails in the supplied base coat and explain exactly what your surroundings looks like, for exactly six minutes.  According to the booklet, the more descriptive you are, the better the effect.  Then, time for three coats of the polish itself, waiting two minutes and 36 seconds between each coat.  Finally, the top coat.  The first time I tried this it was bit cloudy and according to the forums this means I wasn't descriptive enough.  The second time though, it was perfect!




The Verdict:  I hope you'll forgive a departure from my normal poses, seeing my hand through my nails was creeping me out so I had to make sure an interesting background showed through.  This polish may be pricey but the effect - just amazing.

Review: Nicole by OPI A Million Sparkles is Accurately Named

It's amazing what you can find when you wander around at night.  My favourite time to go shopping is ridiculously late and I'm extra happy when it pays off.  I've been looking for Nicole by OPI A Million Sparkles for a while now at that couldn't be more up my alley if it tried.  I finally managed to find it in a Shoppers last night and it really does live up to its name. A Million Sparkles is a predominately blue glitter that has an amazing ability to look like a foil after a couple of coats.  Combine that with gold, silver and pink bar glitter and you have a winner.  It's seriously so sparkly I got distracted from what I was saying at lunch today.  Application is decent but you really need four coats to get completely opaque coverage.  That's ok, glitter dries fast.  It's a little rough too but nothing Seche Vite can't fix.  The Verdict:  Yay glitter! If, like me, you like sparklies to the point where it's the biggest tag on y

I'm a Proper Mermaid This Time Beeeeaches

Ermerger guys, I don't have any glitter on me!  Well, I do, just on my nails.  I always have glitter on me.  And cat fluff.  It's funny how often my bf comes home with glitter in his beard.  That means it's been there all day... Anyway, new nail vinyls mean something a bit different.  I swear I'm not actually obsessed with mermaids, it just seems like it... Anyway, again, shall we?

Overlaid Red, Black and White Gradient Nails!

Ever since I did this mani recently I've been wanting to do a better version.  The colours seemed like they would work together but it just didn't turn out how I wanted.  I wanted to try again and decided to learn from my original mistakes.  For example, make sure you use a super opaque creme polish on your top layer, don't bother with horizontal stripes and using thicker lines looks cool too.
