Very happy with this franken, It looks jelly-ish and sparklie! No idea what Essie Starry Starry Night really looks like, but I like this!
inordinate fascination with oneself; excessive self-love; vanity. All while high on acetone.

Zoya Jo + OPI Last Friday Night + Barry M Hologram Hexagrams
I put on 2 coats of Jo, but it seemed so plain with Last Friday Night sitting on my vanity. I had just received Hologram Hexagrams and it wanted to play, too. I think the result was awesome!

Nfu-oh 56 over OPI Yodel Me on My Cell
Not a whole bunch of flakie goodness is visible in the photo, but it was way cooler in real life. I got so many compliments on the manicure at work. It looked really metallic and then the flakies made it even better!

OPI DS Magic
You may have wondered where I disappeared to. Just a heck of a lot going on. I've been less than healthy over the past few weeks. I think I have got SAD (seasonal affective disorder), too. It gets dark about 4:30 now. I can't stand this time of year.
I put this polish on tonight, thinking it might cheer me up. Its so beautiful! Glittery and duochromey, though you cannot see that in my photos. It shifts to purple.
ChG 2Nite
I'm not sure I ever wore this polish before now. It is so perfect. The entire OMG collection is fabulous. You know how I love blue. I'm finding I get much better application and wear of these holo polishes by putting them over a day old manicure. Otherwise, they chip easily. I love having rainbows on my nails! *happy dance*

Gradient Mani
I have never received so many compliments on a manicure in one day! Customers were telling me all day how much they liked it.
I did this gradient mani last night. It was easy and fun. I used ChG Frostbite as a base. I added Zoya Ivanka first at the cuticle end, then put OPI DS Magic on the tips, then I used SH HD DVD in the middle to blend them together with the help of a little Orly Smudge Fixer. The smudge fixer smooths and blends the colors together.
I am loving these new foil-glitter polishes. Zoya's Sparkle Collection, OPI's Summer Flutter Collection, and Sally Hansen HD Ultra all have polishes with this awesome finish.
ChG Bahamian Escape
This is my childhood favorite color! Remember Crayola Crayons 64 pack? There was a crayon called "Sky Blue" and this is THE color! They've since redone the crayon colors, so I don't know what's in those 64 color packages anymore.
The formula on this leaves something to be desired. Like many pastel polishes, its a little gloppy and thick and doesn't always self level itself well. Still I have 2 bottles for some reason....

ChG Midnight Mission
At first I wasn't head over heels for ChG's Vintage Vixen collection, but its growing on me. I do love MM. This is sort of what I wanted Blue Island Ice Tea to be. This is darker and more interesting than BIIT.
