1000 Hour Nail Foils - Epic Fail!

I really wanted to love this product :( The design is so pretty. But that is the only thing it has going for it.

-The foils are so thick they just wouldn't bend enough to stick to my curvy nails.
-The extra effort to apply heat to every nail one at a time was just silly.
-Trying to get a smooth edge was impossible!

This is what my nails looked like after all the effort.......

 Worst.....Nails.......EVER!

I thought maybe it was just me not getting it right. So i googled other reviews, and i didnt see one picture that didn't have rough edges at the very least...... How are these on the market still? How do they have the nerve to charge $15.95 AUD?????
Hope i save some poor soul from wasting a single cent on this product...... If you are thinking of buying this..... RUN!!!!!! Invest your money in a new polish :) Or if you really want the sticker type nail polish, get the Sally Hansen ones.

Face Of Australia - Barbados - Bright Lights, Pink City

Another amazing colour from the Barbados LE Collection from Face Of Australia. This time its Bright Lights, Pink City. Its an amazing, almost fluro pink. With a stunning golden shimmer throughout. It took 3 coats and i can still see a bit of VNL. But that does not bother me at all. This polish reminds a bit of Butter Londons Trout Pout because it looks very different depending on the type of lighting.
This is closest to its true colour. In the shade outside.

This picture is just out of the sunlight outside. A bit washed out, but that shimmer is stunning :)

This last picture is in full sunlight. It looks a little more fluro IRL.

Jelly Sandwich with BYS Wild Orchids and BYS Silver Glitter

This was my first go at a Jelly Sandwich, and overall i think it went well. I think next time i would do another layer of glitter and jelly polish to give it more depth.
For this one i did 2 layers of BYS Wild Orchids, then one layer of BYS Silver Glitter, then one more layer of Wild Orchids.

My First Dotting Mani :)

This was me just playing with my new dotting tools. Even though i was stuffing around, i really loved how this turned out :) This was 2 coats of Sally Hansen Xtreme Wear in Petite Pink. It really could have done with another coat to even things out though. The dots are done with O.P.I in Ate Berries In The Canaries.

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

I will also have a review of the Gel Eyeliner up in the next few days :)

OPI - Katy Perry Collection - Teenage Dream

I bought the mini 4 pack that came out almost a year ago now, and fell in love with Teenage Dream. Its such a soft pink indoors, but still softly sparkles just enough to make me smile :) Then when you go outside the holo glitter is almost blinding! Just nothing but love for this polish. This was 3 very easy to apply, quick drying coats. One coat of out the door made it almost smooth. 2 coats would get rid of the gritty feeling, but i dont mind the texture of glitter, i kinda love it :p

Chemistry 522 - Holographic Pink Nail Polish :)

I am just dying over the holos. Beautiful sunny beach filled days! Perfect weather for holos :)
This is more of a dusty rose pink holo. But is holographic, so its still amazing.

China Glaze - Heaven

Not something i always go for, but it looks so pretty in the bottle :) But when i put it on last night it made my nails look sick, bleh! Was gonna take it off, but thought i would take some pics in the morning for reference. Now im looking at it in daylight, i kinda like it. Thinking it would look good with some nail art stickers, maybe flowers or something like that :) However this took AGES to dry, even after applying Out The Door top coat :(

Color Club - Fame & Fortune

This polish was such a stunner! I have never seen anything like it before. It looked like shattered glass trapped in layers of bright pink jelly *LOVE*  Was a bit of a learning curve trying to figure out how to shift the shards around to look good and not stick out, but was so worth the effort. I couldnt pick just one or two pics...... So here are SEVEN pics that dont even begin to show the amazingness that is Fame & Fortune!

Sally Hansen HD in Digital with China Glaze Crackle in Crushed Candy

I loved this look! I started by just wanting to have just Sally Hansen HD in Digital on my nails, a beautiful bright pink...... But it stinks! It really is yuck, bleh :( So i tried to hide the smell by putting on my China Glaze Crackle in Crushed Candy, a light blue. It didnt help cover the smell, but it looked amazing.
