Different Dimension: Right to Vote 2012!

Hello, my lovelies! 

On this beautiful fall day, I am enjoying the windows open and all the fresh air. And not so enjoying a couple of newly shortened nails. I looked down at my hand Friday and realized that 4 corners had chipped off of my nails! I hate that! And on one, both sides of different lengths! So it’s practically a nubbin. Sigh. At least I have a pretty new mani to ease the pain! 

Today I am trying a new polish from indie maker DifferentDimension. I have not tried her polish before, though I had been eyeing a few. When she ran a recent promo though, I grabbed one. It’s a really cool promo that I believe is still going on and I’m going to tell you about it so you can get in on it also. 

Zoya Swatch Spam!

Hello, my lovelies!

After some torrential storms yesterday, we have now have some lovely cool weather here. I didn’t do Try It On Tuesday yesterday; between the weather and being extremely tired, I didn’t have it in me. So to make up for it, I’ve got some Zoya swatch spam for you, and I’ll do TIOT next week. I even know what I’m doing for it!

I think everyone knows how much I love Zoya. In addition being 3 free, their formulas a heavenly. I have yet to find one that isn’t just buttery smooth and flawless. I’ve never encountered one that drags, pools, or pulls. I found this to be true for all of these!

Warning, very pic heavy!

Color Club Wild and Willing!

Hello, my lovelies!

We are having a gorgeous fall-like weekend here in DC so I am sporting a gorgeous polish to match!

I’ve never worn Color Club, for some reason I had it in my head that it was one of the cheapie polishes that wasn’t very good. Boy, was I wrong! I was scanning Copious a couple of week ago, looking for something to spend a $5 credit on when I saw it. A beautiful bronze-y polish. Well, you all know my love for bronze/copper/orange/peach polishes. So I looked at the picture and the name, and it was $5, with free shipping. Color Club Wild and Willing. Why not? I thought, so I picked it, applied my credit, and waited.

Sinful Colors Swatch Spam!

Hello, my lovelies!

Today I have some Sinful Colors spam for you! During my swatchathons, I try to swatch all of my untried of a particular brand, and instead of doing them one by one on Try It On Tuesdays, some of them are going to make it into spam posts like these. 

I am quite fond of Sinful Colors as a rule. There was some hubbub with them not long ago when they stole bloggers pictures and used them without permission. Revlon (their parent company) was contacted by many of us (myself included), issued a public apology and reached out to the bloggers. I haven’t heard anything since, but to my knowledge, they were trying to make it right to with the bloggers that owned the pictures.  

TIOT: Maybelline Color Show

Hello, my lovelies!

It’s Try It On Tuesday again! For those of you just joining us, TIOT is where we take out a polish we’ve had sitting around but haven’t used and try it on. Be sure to pop by Jilltastic Nail Design, who came up with TIOT, and check out all of the other bloggers participating!

I’m going to be showcasing two polishes today, both part of Maybelline’s new line, Color Show.  A lot of them are pretty run of the mill, and look like we’ve seen them many times. There are a few gems in the bunch though, and I’ve got a couple of them. Warning, pic heavy!

Dare To Wear Red E To Go

Hello, my lovelies!

It’s Friday, hooray! Can you believe it’s September already? Fall is just around the corner but I’m not letting go of summer just yet!

Today I have a new pretty (ok, I have a ridiculous number of new pretties, but just showing one off today), by Dare To Wear. This is a brand new to me, but I had some Copious credits and it looked like a red with some orange casting, so of course, I gave it a whirl! 

TIOT: UO Sea Dust!
