Yo Dog, I Heard You Liked Nail Polish.......sorry

I apologise in advance for any and all meme related content in this post but come on, how could I not do it? So here we go: I heard you liked nail polish so I put some polish on your nails! With polish! But not actually polish, acrylic paints! I don't know how I'm going to hold all this polish on my nails! Yayyyyyyy! ....sorry. I'll stop now.

So I have an awesome friend who does this great small scale acrylic painting on shoes so I steal her sometimes and bribe her to do said painting on my nails. She's done my cat in space, and my cat as long cat for me so far, and this time I wanted her to do me a pattern of nail polish bottles. After applying two coats of OPI My Vampire Is Buff, she did her thing with acrylic paints. It of course came out super awesome. Thanks Erica!

The Verdict: I love how this came out. The colours in the bottles work so well with the off-white background and it just looks all-round awesome. I only wish I could have kept it on longer. But you know, the glitter beckons. Thanks again Erica!

Review: Sephora X Outburst

As you can imagine, I was pretty excited when the new Sephora X polishes came out. Not only were there a million of them, but I could go see them in person, circling the huge stand and singling out my prey. I'm not the most happy that the good ones are FIFTEEN dollars each but what am I going to do, not buy any?? That's silly. I have few now but my favourite so far as to be the incredibly Outburst. LOOK AT IT:

All the ILNP Ultrachromes! Like Shiny Beetles!

Guess what guys, it's not glitter today! Instead, I have the incredibly amazing ILNP Ultrachrome polishes to show you! I saw a picture of these on the ILNP site and gasped out loud when I saw the colour shift. I totally didn't sit for an hour at work, refreshing the page when the preorders went up. That would be silly. I was so excited when they arrived as they looked as amazing in the bottle as they did on the site. I swatched each polish over black, took the photos, but no matter what I tried, I couldn't get the finish to a place where I was satisfied. I'm sure it's something about the way I was applying it, but there would be little bumps or inconsistencies in the finish and it was annoying. So I didn't post them. I gave them another shot in a taped mani and YES THIS IS BETTER LOOK:

Pink Mega-Sparkly Nails!

It's hardly a secret how much I love sparklies. If it were at all practical, I would make my middle name Sparkly. Laura Sparkly Tucker. That does have a nice ring to it. Anyway, this adoration of all the sparklies means just about my favourite thing ever is dazzle glitter . It's like a bunch of tiny pieces of glitter were smushed together into a larger piece. And oh, so sparklies. I've done red and silver manis using this glitter before so that's the perfect excuse to use the pink. That makes sense, right?
