NEW Milani Liquid Metal "DOT COM"




This is sooooo awesome! It is a purple with gold shimmer that looks like real gold dust! Went on great, opaque- this is two coats, and is moderately shiny so you'll want a top coat for best impression. You'll be queen of your own .com empire with this polish! Love! 5 Blings!

New Milani - 2.0

April and I tripped on to a new Milani display at Fred Myers the other day. This is one of them. This is two coats of 2.0 with no top coat. It's almost a holo but it's not. It kind of reminds me of my graphite drawing pencil but with lots of silver blue and some gold sparkle. It's a really cool polish that looks a lot different inside and outside. 4 Blings

" My Precious "


OMG! I hardly know where to start. These are from the swap that I just got from Ancek at "Rainbows and Blues".
I started with one coat of S-he #464, a super dark purple that covered in one coat. It went on a little different than I am used to, thin and runny but super opaque. It wasn't hard, I just had to be careful not to get it on my skin.
Then......drum roll..........."MY PRECIOUS"! Nfu-Oh #39.
One easy, smooth as butter with angel wings, gorgeous flakey perfection! I can not stop looking at my nails! I put this on last night, I even had a dream about it! How cool is that! Sadly there was no sun to capture its full glory.
Ancek, I cant thank you enough for giving me my first Nfu- Oh polish and my new "PRECIOUS"! LOVE! LOVE! LOVE!
5+ Blings

Barielle Shades - Belly Dance

This is two coats of Barielle - Belly Dance. I really love this shade of taupe. It has a lavender cast to it, It may be my favorite taupe so far. This is no top coat, it really didn't need it. Application was awesome. 4.5 Blings

Big Batch of Barielle's Part 1



I am in love with this collection. These were all beautiful and easy to apply! First up is a stunning silver called "Night Moves" and you will be queen of the disco wearing it. It is extra shimmery and reminds me of Sally Hansen's "Celeb City". This was 2 coats. 4 Blings.


This is now my favorite blue for sure! Also 2 coats "Electric Boogie" is a dark blue (but not too dark- it doesn't look black at night) with some teal sparkles. So much nicer in person! 5 Blings!



Last but not least, we have "Freestyle". This is a perfect light mint green with silver shimmer. Just a little background- Barielle first started with horse products, and a freestyle is where a horse and rider "dance" to music. This color does seem to convey the special precision that goes into such a perfectly timed production, and earns 4.5 Blings (which would equate to a freestyle score of 95%- off the charts!).

Pixel Pretty

This is Sally Hansen HD - Pixel Pretty. This is a really loud bright turquoise with green shimmer. This is two coats with no top coat. I love this color but it's really not something that I'd normally wear. I would feel really uncomfortable wearing this out of the house. I don't know, maybe if I was wearing just the right white and turquoise summer outfit. Maybe. 3.5 Blings

Claire's Mood polish Win from Sawan Part II


Overall these went on well, fairly opaque- two coats each. Nice color selection :)


Of all the ones I'm reviewing, this one stole the show. It's Happy/Earthy and it is fabulous! This doesn't just change shades, it changes from grass green to bright yellow- hot! 5 Blings!


I also love this blue/aqua combo called Peaceful/Confident. Decent color change and gorgeous color. 4 Blings.

Although I love the pink, this one didn't change hardly at all. It could be because my nails are too short to show a difference. Gotta love the name though: Fabulous/Funky. 3.5 Blings


This one was wild too! Grey to orangey taupe. Daring/Innocent has a good color change to it also. 4 Blings.
