Nail of the Day 11/27/11: butter LONDON Tart With...
Tart With A Heart is the other polish that came in Ulta’s Dressing Table duo along with The Black Knight. It’s also the color you guys chose on Twitter when I couldn’t decide what to wear. What good taste you all have! *applauds*
Tart With A Heart is gorgeous. Think - sparkle, sparkle, and more sparkle! It consists of a sheer pink base with gold and holographic glitter.
I...

Nail of the Day 11/19/11: OPI Pros and Bronze
FREAKIN’. AMAZING. Yep, I think that pretty much sums up this nail polish.
Pros and Bronze is from OPI’s Fall 2011 Serena Williams Glam Slam! duo. I’ll probably end up doing a post on the other polish (which, by the way, is also gorgeous) but I think this one deserves some serious spotlight time first.
Pros and Bronze is a crazy hybrid of a varnish - glitter, foil, AND...

Nail of the Day 11/16/11: Revlon Facets of Fuchsia
I actually wore this nail polish almost a week ago, but decided to save the photos for a later post. Looks like “later” is now!
Facets of Fuchsia is one of three (fairly) new glitter polishes from Revlon. I was immediately drawn to this varnish because it looks identical to Deborah Lippmann’s Bad Romance. Until now, there was nothing that could measure up to the unique...

Nail of the Day 11/13/11: OPI Excuse Moi!
I really wasn’t impressed with the glitter polishes from OPI’s recent Muppets collection. Most of them had clear bases and looked weird and chunky on their own. However, there WAS one exception - Excuse Moi.
Being a long time Miss Piggy lover, I’m happy to report that this lacquer doesn’t disappoint. I think everyone’s second favorite pig (Porkchop being the first,...

Nail of the Day 11/07/11: Essie Cocktail Bling
This is the “mystery color” I was wearing in a vlog on my second channel. I promised I would reveal it to you guys, so here ya go!
Cocktail Bling is a lovely pale gray with a blue-ish undertone from Essie’s Winter 2011 collection. Admittedly, the name is a little misleading because when I hear the word “bling,” thoughts of sparkle and glitter automatically enter my...

Nail of the Day 11/05/11: OPI Skull & Glossbones
When I saw Laura (my favorite blogger of all-time) raving about this nail polish in one of her posts, I had to have it.
Skull & Glossbones is a soft gray with a creamy finish from the Pirates of the Caribbean collection. The color reminds me of the kneaded erasers I use for sketching - very putty-esque. I’ve had a thing for gray varnishes recently, and this one definitely fits the...

Nail of the Day 11/02/11: butter LONDON The Black...
The Black Knight is one of three limited edition polishes from butter LONDON’s holiday collection this year. I found it in the Dressing Table Duo at Ulta, which features two holiday colors for $25. All of the polishes can be purchased individually, but you save $3 if you get the set.
I was immediately drawn to The Black Knight because it looks absolutely stunning in the bottle. The pink,...
