Two NOTD's

Hey guys and gals!

I haven't had much time to do any interesting mani's, but this is what I have done!

(All pictures can be clicked to enlarge!)

China Glaze Medallion gradient:

I had to change my polish but didn't have time for anything elaborate, so I did a simple gradient that I kind of have been wanting to do for a while.I think this is three coats - one from cuticle to tip, one from about halfway to tip, and one just at the tip. Some turned out better than others but I really liked this mani! I picked up CG Medallion at Sally's clearance bin and I'm glad I did! (Click to enlage - look at those gorgeous holo hexagonal glitters!)

The Show Must Go On + leopard lace:

I absolutely love this polish. I love this WHOLE collection. I couldn't capture this polish in it's entirety, but you can see some of the duo-chrome-iness on my index finger. In some lights it's a hot magenta-raspberry color, some lights it's an orange-bronze, and in most light, it's a beautiful foil-y red. I was iffy about it at first, but now I don't want to take it off...I keep staring at it! I also used CG Gr8 to stamp with m57..I really like this mani too (: I just wish the could showed up brighter!

And this is some of the things I've picked up/received recently:

OPI: Sparkle-icious, Extra-Va-Vaganza!, Glow Up Already!, Show It and Glow It!, The Show Must Go On, China Glaze: Frosty, Mistletoe Kisses








Did I mention that I LOVE OPI's Burleque collection? I love glitter, and these are suuuch beautiful glitters. I love glitters in a clear base that can be brought to opacity. At first, I was only going to get Show It and Glow It, and then ended up getting five of them. I also would like a couple more of the shimmers from the collection.
These are the only colors I was really interested in from CG Naughty or Nice Holiday collection. I don't know how much I love this green just yet but I'll have some fun xmas mani's with it!

Hope you guys enjoyed - sorry I've been so dead lately! School keeps me on my toes. (:

xo,
B
