Glitter Skittles

After testing out my new Miss Cop glitter that I bought at the market, I wanted to see what it looked like on a black base.  As I was getting everything out I realized I had other new glitters that I haven’t tried yet, and some I’d like to compare.  That’s when it hit me… glitter skittle!!  Well, nine glitter …

Claire’s Stars–Lesson Learned!

A few weeks ago I was in Claire’s looking at the polish and came across this glitter polish with such lovely big stars mixed in.  Without even thinking I snatched it up and ran for the register.  I couldn’t wait to get home and try it!  My memory totally failed me that day because I had bought this kind of …

Claire’s Purple and Green… Thingie?

Funky French

Today I was out running some errands and had to pop into Etos and Kruidvat to peek at their polishes.  I picked up a few Essence products to try them out. The tip guides seemed to work pretty well, except I acted like a big cheapo and tried to use the same one again and again which lead to things …

Second Taping Experience

It’s so fun, what you can create with something as simple as a few pieces of scotch tape! It didn’t come out quite as neatly as I would like but it will do for a few days.  The blue polish is Miss Sporty from Etos, and I’m not a fan at all. The brush is an odd wide but crooked …
