My. Entire. Updated. Collection.

You know, I think my new declaration should be that I shouldn't make declarations cos it lasted, what, all of a couple days? I get way too much enjoyment out of blowing things off so committing to a schedule is never a good idea. So! Let's go with "more" posts. Since my last two manis weren't quite right, I thought I might as well show you my polish collection. Conditional upon me showing you this, you must promise not to count them then work out the approximate cost. I have low expenses and nail polish is my favourite thing to buy so...yeah. The worst part is is that I have probably bought about 200 more polishes since I took these pictures. And this is what my collection looked like in April 2012...

To give you an idea of how much of a problem I have, keep in mind that this table is the Ikea Norden table, extended, making it close to 7 feet long. Yeah. It's that bad. I even had to crack out a fish-eye lens because I couldn't fit everything in frame otherwise. The bonus of the fish-eye is that it makes the table look like a tiny planet populated exclusively by nail polish...mmmmm. I organised everything by brand but I really want to put them all in a rainbow now. Can you imagine, a seven foot wide sparkly polish rainbow?? Took ages to this so it's unlikely to happen, but nice to think about.

And this is my baby collection, from April 2012.

The Verdict: Of course I love this. I'd be even crazier to spend all this time and money, if I didn't like looking at them all. If there's something you want to see close up, just leave it in the comments and I'll do a macro version!

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?

FULL RAINBOW GLITTER INSANITYYYYYYYY

I don't know what it is, but there's something about hex glitter that is very pleasing to me. The tessellation, the way the colours can interlace, it's just great. The problem is, the tiny glitter - my favourite - is actually quite difficult to find. The red, especially, difficult to track down. I FINALLY FOUND SIXTEEN COLOURS BIATCHES. THUS, RAINBOW-Y-EST RAINBOWS EVER AND I'm sharing too at the The Sparkly Shop ... But we're here for this rainbow today. LOOK AT THIS WOULD YOU.
