L.A. Girls Magnetic - Positive Charge

YUP! A red magnetic polish! How pretty is that!?
 $3.99 at Rite Aid too!

 This polish is so great! It applies so smooth and the magnetic particles work really well. It doesn't look chunky or weird like some of the cheaper magnetic polishes tend to look.
 That's supposed to be a star on my ring finger, I kinda messed it up a little.
A swirly magnet! How cool!?

Almost the 4th!

 Kleancolor: Fireworks over Kleancolor Bite Me
 How cool is this glitter?
 Kleancolor does some seriously awesome glitters. This doesn't look great in the bottle, but it's pretty awesome on the nail. There is a lot of gold glitter mixed with red and blue. Perfect for the 4th!

Kleancolor - Bite Me

 This is such a gorgeous shade of red!
I took a trip to Sephora this week, so that's $OPI gold flaky polish on my ring finger.

Juliet - Sunset Kiss

 This was a great drugstore find! I've never seen Julie nail color before, but I found it at Rite Aid. There were so many amazing colors to choose from! I picked Sunset Kiss because in the bottle it looked like it shifted from cherry red to orange to pink and it doesn't disappoint on the nail.
 I can't even county how many compliments I have gotten on this color! It's especially pretty in daylight.
I thought this was reasonable for a drug store polish at $2.99, and I definitely want to try out a few more colors!

Christmas in June!

These are my first Nicole Polishes. I kind of like the wonky bottles.




I found these in a 2-pack at Marshalls for $6.



I wish I had gotten a picture of "stuck in the chimmney" for you by itself. Gorgeous red!

I got lots of compliments on this. Spark my mistletoe is a great holo-red glitter.

I can't remember what red was the base color. Something OPI holidayish I think.
But it's Sally Hansen's hidden treasure on top.

You're Such a Glamourpuss!

Wow! A color this awesome really deserves more pictures. Unfortunately the rest of them didn't come out well. I am so happy I chose Glamourpuss during the RBL 50% off sale. I was between this and Killah Red. I'm sure KR is awesome but Glamourpuss is just beautiful. I don't think I own any reds like this. It's a bright, cheery cherry red. It makes me happy just looking at it! The formula was great. I found the brush a little skinny, but usable. There is a little bit of tipwear here from typing. I haven't mastered "wrapping" my tips yet when I polish. I have been working on not slopping polish all over my fingers and getting my cuticles in better shape instead!

Let's take a stroll, shall we?

From China Glaze's fall "Retro" collection...Stroll:

I was afraid it would be a little TOO glittery red, but it's not! It's a darker red with a nice strong shimmer.

Hard to capture it just right...weather has been gloomy so no good sunlight either...


Wearability hasn't been the greatest. Started to see tipwear pretty quick. It's also very sheer. This was 3 coats. Probably could have used a 4th.
I thought I should post a picture after 4 days of wear...after the initial tip wear, it actually held up really well. Not a single chip! I would have kept it, but I needed a switch!
