NOTD: Lilacism MOD SQUAD craCKLe

If you read my post yesterday, then you know that I purchased the black crackle polish from China Glaze. I got it for $5.25CAD and didn't know if I would like it that much on myself. And you know what? It's growing on me. I had a little fun with the colours underneath. 






I combined: Sally Hansen INSTA-DRI fast dry - 28 Mint Sprint, Essie - 589 Mod Squad, L'oreal - 345 Purple Pop, L'oreal - 262 Fanatic Fuschia, Essie - 705 Lilacism, OPI - No Room For The Blues
I topped those up with a coat of China Glaze Crackle 980 Black Mesh and 3 coats Seche Vite Dry fast top coat.


What do you think of this colour combo? Do you like the look of crackle polishes?

Sneak Peek: OPI & Katy Perry nail polish collection for Spring 2011

Another nail polish post about OPI teaming up with another singer...... this time Katy Perry... I can definitely post this one without any doubt. Unfortunately these polishes will not be out until Spring 2011. I like the advertisement for this collection. Very colourful...! and for the polishes... well I think these are more what I would like....especially the shatter top coat! Can't wait to see them in person! What do you think of these colours?

One less lonely girl collection by Nicole by OPI

First off let me say that I was contemplating not posting about this as I am not a fan at all of Bieber, however after seeing the polishes in person and finding out that the collection supports a charity... I was a little less reluctant to post about them. I wouldn't say that the polish colours are anything special.. the only one that honestly attracted me the slightest was 'Give me the first dance'. 
After a few hours of these babies hitting the shelf at my local shoppers,  quite a few were purchased... not to mention by tweens or teens! 
I love the fact that the polish sales help build schools and increase educational opportunities in developing countries. Other then that.... I probably won't purchase any of these colours.. what do you think? Are you thinking of buying any of these? or have you already?!
At least I know that my little cousin will love these....... :)

Lost Files: EOTD/FOTD/NOTD

I was looking over some photos earlier and came across some photos that I haven't posted, of some eye makeup and nail polish. They kinda got lost in the mix. So this is just a quick post to show them and quickly mention what I used. Hope you enjoy!
First up we have a NOTD using my favourite colour purple. This particular colour is Nicole by OPI in "MAKE A CHANGE". I like this colour because its vibrant and vivid! Want to try a colour from Nicole by OPI? then try it on. 

Next are a series of eye makeup:
I wore this pretty aqua shadow to work one night. Everyone complimented me on the intensity of the colour. And could not believe the colours I used. it looks similar to my black sea look because I used some of the same products. I did not use black on this though 

Shadow used: L'oreal HIP 

bright shadow duo in #224 Showy




(if you look close enough you can see my false lashes coming off! haha)
