OPI The Show Must Go On, Silver Shatter

This mani has lasted a week. Well.. I had TSMGO on for 4 days (no chips) and added the shatter after then. I have one miniscule chip on the edge of one nail as of now. They are super nubs too. I love you OPI. I really do.

Orly It's Not Rocket Science, OPI Black Shatter

I just wanted something easy and shiny and green. 

How I love this colour. Swampy, glittery all things good. 

But this? This is amazing. It looks like REAL ZOMBIE SKIN!!!!

I think I might love this stuff even more horizontally applied.

Just look. I am in LOVE.

I can't wait to try this over EVERYTHING. 

I have no words for awesome I think this Shattered is. I LURVE it.

OPI The Show Must Go On (again)

I know possums, I've worn his before. But it is such a perfect festive colour..

I had to show it to you again. 

Also I made an executive decision that I will post repeats. I just can't remember what I've worn before all the time.

I hope I can show you ever improving picture skills too!

And here's a bonus picture of my little birdie ornament that is making me smile every time I see him. His story is over in my regular blog if you are interested in it.

Smile lovelies..

OPI Let Me Entertain You, Femme Couture Prince ala Charm

I was in the mood to do some layering. 

So I pulled out the OPI LMEY (ha ha limey) and topped it with some Prince ala Charm. 

Yay!

I rarely like stuff on the first go but this was a win for me.

I do think my love affair with Seche Vite is over though, it shrinks like a bastard. Especially on Orly polishes I've noticed. It really does prevent chips, but it makes my tips look TERRIBLE. Not impressed dude. 

Also, since I'm already kind of bitching, since when has blogger had limits on photo storage? Ugh. Now I get to take the extra step to upload pix to flickr and then transfer them to blogger. LAME

Pickles and Max say have a good weekend possums!

Sorry about any too big-ness of the pix, it took me bloody ages to figure out this stupid new way of dealing with photos. I'll get it eventually. Hopefully. 

Fingerpaints Tough Art To Follow, OPI Call My Cell-ery

I'm never surprised when I choose a green polish. I love green. My husband, not so much.

Even he liked this sparkly duo. It looked like Zombie Zest's older, goth-er sister. 

2 coats of TATF (has any one done a comp between this and Nars Zulu? I don't have Zulu, but it looks awfully similar in pix to me!) and 2 of the OPI. 

What did surprise me was the tone of this green, I'm usually far more of a swampy, olive, army kinda gal, but I really dug this. It looked great against my skin.

I may just become a green equal opportunist!

OPI Tease-y Does It

I'm loving this collection from OPI. I've bought 3 of them so far.. 

You think, oh vampy. Nice but you know, nothing special. 

Sure it's shiny but eh...

POW! BAM! WHACK! SHIMMER!

Gorgeous deep shimmer that entrances your eyes and makes you look, look, look....

So well done OPI. This was 2 easy peasy coats, and clean up was a breeze too. 

I'm digging it.

OPI The Show Must Go On

Wow! What can I say about this colour? It's glowy, it's sparkly, it's shines with justice? All of the above?

It's a duo-chrome that I actually like. I know I'm in the minority about that, but usually the duo-chrome is not one of my favourite finishes on a polish.

The red/gold flash is absolutely stunning in this. You really need a shade picture to do it justice, but I only had sun. See me not complaining? :)

This was 2 easy peasy coats. I do love that Pro-wide brush, I do.

What's even better? It dried so quickly! I mean I still used a quick dry top coat, but this was almost set on it's own when I put that on.

Shine on you beautiful polish... shine on. Thank Voodoo Man for nail polish heaven!

What's that? You haven't entered my giveaway? There's mere hours left before that lucky ducky gets their prize!! Go on now.. ENTER!!!

OPI Princesses Rule

This weekend was a frenzy of nail polish buying and building! I went to a different Cosmoprof and found a few pretties I had been looking for. 

And some I didn't even know I needed until I found them. 

Like this hottie! This is quite possibly the girliest mani I have EVER worn. EVER. 

I may be a convert to this pretty. Not just the pretty edgy. 2 coats, full sun.

OPI Russian Navy Suede

Whoever said mattes are the sweatpants of the nail polish world is a genius. Fast drying, super awesome and dare I say comfy!

I love this colour, It is amazing against my ridiculously white skin.

Know what else? It looks equally as fabulous with a shiny topcoat! 

See? Sparkly goodness!

2 coats, full sun for all pix. As you can see I chopped off the nails. I was getting dents in my palms from them being so long.. knitting seems to make my nails grow like whoa!

I hauled a whack of polish yesterday. Oh my..
