What to do when you get smurf hands?!?!?!?

 First step is - DON'T FREAK OUT! (I may have, just a little....)

Ok, so i was so excited to get my very first Wet n Wilds sent to me from the US. When i tried Teal of Fortune it looked amazing. 


Now i got super frustrated because EVERY picture i took turned out blue..... It is a teal green...... So annoying.......

See the green/teal look in the middle of the bottle in the picture below? That's as close as i could get.....



 So now i wanted to try something else on....... 20 mins of scrubbing with remover, 10 mins scrubbing with dish washing liquid mixed with sugar (it hurts after a while...), and countless times washing with soap and a nail brush......... I was left with this..........


SMURF HANDS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I wanted to cry....... But as i was taking my waterproof mascara off, i thought i would try my eye makeup remover (the ones with the 2 different liquids that you have to shake together) with my hands
, and it worked :) My nails were still a bit blue, and all my hangnails look really blue and even more ripped from all the scrubbing earlier, but my skin was stain free!!!!!

So in the in can i say that Wet n Wild - Teal of Fortune was worth the smurf hands????? I don't think so :( I loved the colour so much, but the staining is just nuts. I have NEVER had this happen before. I hope it never will again :)

Does anyone else have this problem?!?!?!?

When you really want some polish on, but get so frustrated because you cant decide what you want to wear? Then the next thing you know your nails look like this.......
I still cant decide.... Boo......

Essence - Bondi Beach Sun Club - Haul - with swatches of - 04 BBC Orange Sunset Nail Polish

So when i saw Essence Au put this up on their FB i went straight to my local target....... To find it not there :( But the Essence FB team are great, they checked in store for me to see what was going on, and let me know where i could find it. So off i went to Target again, and there it was :) So i resisted from getting everything (this week.... don't tell hubby.....) and just got 3 polishes and one eyeliner. I decided to start off with Orange Sunset Nail Polish. This is my first ever orange polish! I have had corals, but never orange. Now the application was not all that flash. Bald spots and dragging was a bit annoying, but the colour was worth it :) My camera went mental trying to pick up this colour. It really is more neon than i could get. The pictures are either too dark, or too washed out :( But i picked the best of the 35+ photos i took. So my pictures are a bit to dark here, they are more neon irl. This is 3 coats of Essence - Bondi Beach  Sun Club 04 Orange Sunset

Glossy Blossom in Emerald Green

This is a really beautiful green polish with some kind of blue micro glitter, or shimmer, or something like that. It really is a beatiful colour :) I got it from Morning Glory. I think they are $4 each, or 2 for $6.



Ugh, i tried like mad to get a picture to show all the amazing blueness hiding in this polish, but my 5mp phone camera just doesnt cut it.... ugh..... I am hoping 'Santa' got the hint that i want a camera this year :)
