Taxi Nails with Maybelline Fiercely Tangy!

I'm not really sure why but I've become a little obsessed with yellow polishes lately. I guess I want to make it up to the colour after ignoring it for two years. Shh, that's a normal thing to do. Totes. Anyway, Maybelline Fiercely Tangy is good at fitting in that colour cos it's yellow. Which means I of course have to put glitter on it. Taxi nails!

I guess I so neglected yellow polishes because they have a habit of being really difficult to apply. Turns out Fiercely Tangy doesn't have that problem. It's just a nice, bright yellow creme. After applying three coats I went to work with my black and silver holo square glitter. WHY IS IT THAT LARGER "SQUARE" GLITTER ISN'T SQUARE? Surely it's not that hard to do. My placement isn't the greatest here because I was having problems with the two colours being different sizes and not being cut evenly. I think I'm ok with how it turned out.

The Verdict: Love the polish, eh about the glitter. Good in theory, just not executed terribly well by either myself or the people that made it. It is sparkly, so there's that. That's always a good thing. Sppppaaarrrrrkkklllyy.

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:

MOAR FLOWERS, NOW SPARKLY

Ok! So you may be feeling a sense of deja vu but WHO CARES SPARKLIES. I actually did this flower mani before the neon one - I held the the neon glitter under my blacklight and there was no way I could not immediately apply it to my nails. Running The Sparkly Shop just continues to have perks... And yes, I do have a blacklight bulb that handy. Anyway, this glitter is just as amazing as the neon, it's RIDICULOUSLY sparkly. Same thinness, nice and easy to work with. Let's take a look, shall we?
