Magical Girl Interlude!

Neptune Power Make Up!!!
Sinful Color Professional - Mint Apple
The color totally reminds me of Sailor Neptune! ^_^ More pictures and review here!

Of course no magical girl would be complete with out a trusty companion!
So co-staring the magical girl, calico kitty Star!

Shes actually my BF's cat. I sneakily let her nap on his bed while he was away >3 Hohoho ~ Kitty Fuzz Attack leaves deadly White kitty hair everywhere!!!

Finally no super heroine is complete without an evil nemesis!

Chipping Nail Polish! :<

No worries folks. This is not my nail which has been removed during a gruesome interrogation session. It is actually 6 coats worth of Nicole...Spotted, which I had so persistently applied while trying to color match the bottle in the previous post.

It just peeled right off two days later in the shower >_> So moral of the story is more polish does not equal longer wear. In fact it just makes you feel like some kind of gross, peeling swamp thing with your nails falling off T_T;;;

I actulally might try Mint Apple under Nicole....Spotted! I think the colors are close enough to get me the effect I wanted :D So hopefully I can share again with you soon! ^_^

Nicole by OPI – Nicole...Spotted!


So I have another glitter polish for you today! Lately sparkles on my fingertips has become an obsession and the only type of lacquer I've been buying. :P

Nail Polish: Nicole by OPI – Nicole...Spotted!
Hue: Blue/Green

So I love, love, love this color in the bottle! The transparent blue, green gel base filled with lots of glitter and some bigger hexagon holographics reminds me of Ariel's under the sea grotto sparking with treasure. And who doesn't love some hidden treasure when it comes in a duo pack for only $6.99 from T.J. Maxx. Woohoo! It came packaged with a silvery glitter polish from the same Gossip Girl collection: Scandal, Secrets & Sparkles (which I'll review later). But really what a steal :P

Comparison of 6 coats vs. 1 coat!

However, its a completely different story once it gets on your nail. With just one coat its a weak bluish tint that makes me think of nail fungus so I doubt I'll be wearing this color alone too often.

I had to layer on six coats to get this look and I think I could still go for more to match the color in the bottle. Since it is a gel base it dries pretty quickly but, it was still a pain doing so many layers.


Nevertheless its a beautiful color if you're willing to put in the time. I do want to try using a blue or white base coat first to see if it will help amp up the color and cut back on the layering.
