Review: Urban Outfitters Red Planet

If your eyes are sensitive and prone to melting out your face, AVERT YOUR EYES. What I have to show you today is so eye-ball punching, it's almost painful. What's more the point though is that I'M AT THE AIRPORT RIGHT NOW, BLOGGING FROM THE GATE, ABOUT TO GO FIRST TO LA THEN TO AUSTRALLLLIIIIIAAAAAAAAAAAAA. That's right, I'm so dedicated to you all that I am willing to blog from here. I'm also very very tired so anything seems like a good idea.

Anyway, onto the nails. A while back I bought a bunch of Urban Outfitter polishes and am only now getting around to using them. Urban Outfitters Red Planet is the brightest, sparkliest glass fleck pink with the edges going orange I think I've ever seen. Application was decent, what you see here is three coats. Once it was dry, I used my paper labell-y things to create the triangles. It's not too hard to do: cut a triangle out of something, place both halves on your nails with a gap in the middle and paint away! I used Orly Sweet Peacock, as sparkly a blue as the pink is pink.

The Verdict: OMG I love this pink. Combined with a colour that you're not allowed to put with on the webs if you're making a colour scheme, all the better! So sparkly, sparrrklllly. So sleepppyyyyy and eye-hurty now.

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.
