Package arrived!

And finally they've arrived! Or well, last week but still. ;)
Color Club - Port-folio, China Glaze - Def-defying, China Glaze - Hanging in the balance, China Glaze - Whirled away, China Glaze - Get carried away, China Glaze - It's a trap-eze
And which one did I try first, if not Whirled away! ;)

Another issue, Do any one of you have any problem with blogger? (if you got blogspot) Making a post is painful since editing of the pictures are so hard. If I write text first, which I often do and then adds pictures, the pictures always get on the top of the page above the text and they are very hard to pull down since I want them below my intro text. It doesn't help to put the pictures in first either, that's almost worse. It's time consuming and irritating and annoying. I've actually been thinking of changing blog plat form. Anyhow, can anything be done?

More package arrived with W7

My other package from fragrancemad arrived today, so picture spam of bottles:

 Above are some polishes from their Dazzle collection, I chose the green, purple and pink. They are allfilled with glitter in a clear base. Tried on the pink on my toenails, and I think it will take massive amount of coats or perhaps some layering.
 Above I have a shiny dark brown(perhaps some purple in it?) creme called Black Cherry. And then what I'm actually most interested about, Salt n Pepper! Matte black glitter in a milky white base. And then the Purple Rain.. Which I actually thought was in the W7 - Planets collection, since it would fit perfectly being duochrome and in the same color scheme. Mostly it looks warm purple, almost hot pink, more like glass-flecked actually. It also show blue and small amount gold brown in the bottle.
And now the actual W7 - Planet collection with 6 polishes named by planets. Above is three of them.

First up is Metallic Venus, the one I thinks the most interesting one looking at the bottle. It looks more shimmer than metallic (like all of the above) but have an amazing color spectra from blue, purple, pink, brown -goldish but mostly just purple/darker red.

Then we have Metallic mars. I actually think of OPI - man of la mancha when I see it. Sometime it looks like darker red with a hint of purple (wine red?) and then it shifts to bronze, and a hint of gold and green.

And then the Metallic Saturn, the on I have the least expectations about, it looks the least duochrome. I almost thought that it was a dupé for the Chanel Peridot but it isn't. Metallic Saturn is more dark olive green with olive green shimmer, however when turning the bottle I can see grey shimmer shifting, making it look interesting. 
 Above is Metallic Neptune shifting from dark blue to teal, and to purple. In the bottom I can see a hint of a gold-brownish shimmer.
 Both above and below I have Metallic Mercury. As you can see it is not fine shimmer, more glass-flecked or larger shimmer or how to say? I would almost say that is reminds me to Metallic Mars except that it has a larger shimmer in it. The larger shimmer makes it behave differently, the wine red glitter sparkles more, shifting some to a bronze color with some green in it. It also feels "darker" than Metallic Mars.

 Above and below is Metallic Jupiter. It as well has the same large shimmer/glass-fleck(?) as Metallic Mercury. The difference is that Jupiter is more purple and blue comparing to Mercury which is more wine red. However Jupiter has some nice shimmer of bronze, gold and green.

Worth noticing is that I had to make the pictures very bright to be able to grab a picture of the polishes, ie they where very hard to capture.

Package received with W7

And here's another package received and this time with W7 nail polish. This is from a collection with three polishes they've got (unfortunately they only had two of them in when I ordered but I picked up the other one later) W7 is an English nail polish brand, with the same bottles as Nail-venturous polishes and also (almost) the same as OPI. I actually have some other W7 bottles from before, which is pearly iridescent but in other bottles (like HM old square onces) 

I think W7 -Lava flow looks a bit like granite! It has a white milky base with matte black glitter and sparkling red glitter. W7 - Mosaic has a blue base with sparkling dark blue and light green glitters. I'm not sure about the formula, ie if it's jelly like or creme.

I think they look a bit like franken polish. I really like that W7 have made these. Can't wait to get home the missing W7 - Salt n pepper (a white base with matte black glitter). It has been said to look like Nails inc - Sugar house lane, but from picture comparisons I wouldn't say that they are so alike. W7 - Mosaic however look a bit like Nails inc. - Pudding lane. 

Bought from fragrancemad.com and for  2,3£ each.

Package recieved with lemmings!

I thought it was unreachable but it wasn't, and now it's mine.

I guess everybody already knew it but it it is Floam and Humble bee created by Amy at I'm Feeling Nail-venturous. Bought at ninjapolish.com. I'm not fully understanding why they are just called ninja polish at the bottles and not also added "by nail-ventuous", but that's a miner problem. They have new bottles too!

Floam: A clear base filled with matte neon blue, yellow and green glitter.
Humble bee:  A clear base filled with matte yellow fine glitter and matte black fine and medium glitter.

Can't wait to try them on and perhaps do some nail art with them. :D

Package 2 arrived!

This is the second package and it is from www.beautyjoint.com. I bought it because of the fine liners of cause. Below are the ones I bought.

The pics can be clicked on to become larger. ;)
White and black from L.A. Colors Art Deco was actually out of stock so I tried out a new brand, namely Jordana (pop art).

The bottle above is something I've really searched for, a polish with a clear base and black glitter (this one got small round and larger hex ones.) It is from L.A. girl and is called Uninhibited. Can't wait to try it out! :)


Package 1 arrived!

Package arrived, with polishes of cause ;) Let's have a look.

 I'm so in loved with the China Glaze bohemian collection, here four of them. And why oh why did I let OPI get in to the basket?! I'm actually liking No plain jane more than I thought, It looks absolutely amazing! It is actually hot pink duochrome shimmer and not so purple as the picture shows. 
 Also picked up some neon colors. I'm so glad I bought Glowstick, the color is so nice with that small hint of green in it making it look even more bright neon. About the CG neons, they also look amazing! I must order more colors from the collection, in person they look more amazing than the swatches I've seen. Great!

Bought from Transdesign.

Kleancolor package arrived!

It really arrived for some days ago, but it's fun showing anyhow. Picture heavy. See anything you like? :)
 
I like Kleancolor, they are cheap and have good quality, perfect for nail art à 1-2coaters. These I bought at ebay for nothing and got them less than a week after. Just perfect.

 I added the name of them on the caps to make it easier if anyone wonder what they are called.





Hello there dupeés.. well yea almost. If I knew they where so similar I would have skipped one of them. Beach blue is slightly darker than neon blue.
Disclaimer: Pictures are not perfectly color correct so if you like something, I would find some swatches to make sure that you still like it. :)
I will not do swatches on them either unless someone specifically ask for it. They will appear random in nail art.
