NOTD: OPI Pearl of Wisdom

Here's another NOTD. Trying to get through some untrieds while I wait for some new colors to arrive, lol.

OPI Pearl of Wisdom
This was released with the Hong Kong collection (Spring 2010), but I already had it, (woo-hoo for saving money) so I guess this was a re-promote. Pearly white, pink and green flash, though on me, it's a multichrome look. I don't like this one at all. While VNL (visible nail line) is not prohibited in my world (as I own tons of sheers), I would prefer it not to be so defined as it is pictured above. This was 3 coats. I didn't use a ridgefiller, so that is part of it...I don't know, I just don't like unintentional French manicures...call me crazy haha.

I will try this again with a ridgefiller and see how it goes, but as of now, this is a like, not a love.

ttyl! <3

NOTD: Misa - It's You

Hi guys~

Misa - It's You
From the "What I Like About You" Fall 2010 Collection.


This color is like a charcoal base with green duochrome, so it looks purply. I often see other colors as well depending on the lighting. Very chic, though too dark for my tastes at the moment. When the weather is murky, I try to go for lighter or brighter shades to cheer myself up. So I might like this more when the weather goes back to normal, or if I am in a "black and gray" mood again...

Holla!

Haul pics, NOTDs and Catching Up

Hey guys! I am still here, I just have been so distracted. My psychological testing class has been the most frustrating course I've taken in a while, so I haven't had much desire to do any blogging. I really enjoy learning how to administering the assessments and interpreting the results (very interesting), though. Enough about that...

Earlier this month, Rescue Beauty Lounge had the allegedly "last big sale" so I did jump on that. Plus Zoya had a BOGO, which gave me a chance to try them out finally...

Here's what I got :-)

From RBL: Ani, 360, Om, and Diddy Mow

From Zoya: Freja, Jo, Adina, Ki, Harley, and Raven

I am not big on swatching polish just for the sake of doing so, and I haven't tried them all yet, but here is RBL 360. I loved wearing this one, as blues are my other SO, hehe.

And here's a random NOTD that I happened to have photographed.

OPI Diva of Geneva

And here's my Thanksgiving mani, which surprisingly rocked and I got compliments all day :-)

OPI Chop-sticking to My Story

I also got some Misa polishes (I really like that brand), so I have quite a few untrieds to go through. I'll try to remember to take pics to post here.

Thanks for looking!
