Top: OPI Can’t Find My Czechbook + Hit Polish Marigold


Bottom: UP Colors Azul Arco-Iris.  I was rather disappointed in this one ‘cos it didn’t look like the icy blue picture on the site I bought it from.  Oh well.

Essie Go Ginza + Jindie Nails You’re Gonna Love Me. I love this glitter a lot, and it had a great formula.

Three recent NotDs.  OPI My Boyfriend Scales Walls + Lynnderella The Present Is a Gift.  Jessica Banana Peel with clouds made from China Glaze Passion for Petals and Nubar Green Tea.  And some amateurish-looking dots on Essie First Timer.

Color Club In the Limelight stamped with a design from Konad plate m64. <3! I wore this for several days, hence all the new growth at the cuticle.

Nubar Reclaim. A somewhat subtle holo, but it&#8217;s greeeeen!  It also applies and cleans up very easily.  &lt;3

Here’s a vintage L’Oreal called Grassroots.  it’s very sheer, so I’ve layered it over OPI Don’t Pretzel My Buttons.  (I feel like too much of the nude base is still discernible, but was afraid it wouldn’t dry with any more coats.)  In person, there’s a bit of a porcelain glaze effect going on that I quite like.

This is two coats of Avon Cotton Candy and one of Hare Polish Rad Cloud. The latter applied really, really well for an indie that&#8217;s chock full of glitter!  It wore nicely, too.  (This is after several days, hence the new growth.)

Sally Hansen Cocoa Suede Creme (approximating a wooden salad bowl) + Phoenix Lacquers Chef Salad.  There&#8217;s carrot sticks, bits of cabbage, a tomato on my index finger&#8230;

Essie Encore topped with Candies Over the Rainbow.  It&#8217;s a bit hard to see, but there are dark pink, orange, and yellow medium hexes; silver and aqua small hexes; green micro hexes; and silver large hexes. It&#8217;s purty.
