Milani - Molten Rock & Matte Magic

One of those polishes that look great in the bottle, but leave you speechless when you put them on. I wore this a couple of time in the last month, and that's saying a lot considering my stash :))







After a day of wearing it I decided to put Matte Magic on. I love this one even more.







Loooooooooooveeeeeeeee! :))

Which one do you prefer?

L.A. Girl Rock Star - Overdose

Before I start, I have to warn you. If you're against bling blingy nails or have some sort of sensitive eyes, skip this post:)

This is one of the polishes I got myself as a present for my degree. It's super blingy, and it's basically blue, pink and silver glitter in a clear base. Because of the clear base it took four coats to get somewhat good coverage. Next time I think I'll use a cream purple base underneath. But it's still great! It's blingy in a weird way - you can see all the different coloured glitters and still they come together into a sigle perfection glitter polish... Ah, the polish love:)

Anyway, pics:








And a blurred one, so you can see all the sparkling going on:




Then, I had to try it matte:) First I did a line over my nails with different matte top coats, but I seriusly can't remember which nail is which top coat. As you can see it doesn't matter anyway as the effect is the same with all three. I used Jessica - No shine finish, Essence - Matt top coat and China Glaze - Matte magic.




Don't like it? No worries, I didn't either. So I mattified whole nails. I have to say I like this version the most. No matte top coat can prevent this one from shining, but it does tone down the shine a bit, and sort of unifies the polish. It's not so much INYOURFACEBLING!! anymore, but still sparkly and great!





Which version do you like the best?

Confetti - My Favorite Martian & matte

This one was a huuuuge lemming of mine, so thanks Chris for including it in our swap *sends hugs*!

I love love love it! It takes three coats, and I had some trouble because the brush in my bottle is totally weird and wonky. I forgot to take photos of it though. But when it's on your nails, it's worth it! Just look at it! Green with glassy flecs that shine even yellow sometimes... It's to die for!







I was really happy with the colour. But it kept bugging me what it would look like if I put a matte TC over it. I resisted for a while, then tried on one nail. And WAWAWOOM! It looks amazing too, so I did all of my nails. I used China Glaze Matte Magic.







To sum it up - I really love this polish (in case you didn't figure that on your own;) ).

H&M Sinful Senorita with Jessica No Shine TC

I already showed you H&M's Sinful Senorita here, but yesterday I tried it with Jessica's No Shine TC. Yes, I know, it's still pink, but I needed something more socially acceptable for a lunch I went to:)

Here are the pics:








I really like it, in fact I like it better matte than shiny, even though it's a holo when it's shiny. Weird huh? :)

I also tried konading over it with a clear TC to make a shiny konading, but it wasn't as seeable (is that even a word?) as I would have liked. It's supposed to be a four leaf clover btw.
