Review: Cha Cha Twist from All That Glitters

Onwards my friends, to try all the different indie polishes out there!  You might recognise this one as a particular stand out from the haul I got in the mail yesterday from AllThatGlitters, another wonderful etsy seller.  This is my first shipment from here and if the other polishes are anything like Cha Cha Twist, I'll be getting way more in the future.

I just had to start with Cha Cha Twist, it's such a stand out glitter.  Combining hex, square (yeah, square) and bar glitter in lots of different sizes in teal, blue, red and black, I can't think of another glitter polish like it. What you see below is two coats over Orly Sweet Peacock, a bright sparkly blue foil.  Application was decent for this polish although I got a lot more interesting glitter when I upended the bottle for a couple of minutes.  It's a little gloopy but there is so. much. glitter. you wouldn't expect anything else.  I love the colour combination in this, looks so good on.






The Verdict: I have five other glitters here to try and if Cha Cha Twist is anything to go by they're all going to be awesome.  Have I mentioned again lately how much I love black and square glitter?  I love that there's both in here :D

    Woah. I was considering this one, but once again, I am SOLD once I see your pictures xD But, is this just Cha Cha alone, or is it on top of a blue polish? Just wondering :)

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 big...

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:
