Hi all!!
Hope everyone's having a good weekend so far :)
Today I have for you another Sally Hansen.  Geez, 3 SH's in 1 week! Oh well, these are some fantastic colors hehe.  Bronze Ablaze is part of their Fall 2011 LE (limited edition) colors from their Insta-Dri Line.  This is my first time using their Insta-Dri polishes, and boy was it an experience.  First, the brush is kinda funky. It's flat instead of round like most other polishes.
 This definitely took some getting used to. I had to grip the brush just right so I could actually paint my nails, but once I got the hang of it after about the 5th or 6th nail on my first coat, it wasn't that bad.

See that shimmer? So lovely!

Ok let me just say, this was 2 coats, but ONLY because I wanted to get used to the flat brush. This was actually very opaque with one.  I would describe this as a gold/copper with micro glitter.  I love how in different lighting you saw the different specks of the glitter and how they all shined in different colors. It did dry very fast true to its name. And this has 1 coat of SV on top. All in all, this was a very successful first impression for me with the Insta-Dri line.

Sooo.. Thoughts? Do you own any Insta-Dri's?  Did it take some getting used to?

Hi gorgeous ladies! And Happy Friday!

Ok, I don't know about you, but summer is officially over where I live! Last night it dipped to 40 degrees. 40 DEGREES! So you know what I did?? The fiance and I trekked on over to Dunkin Donuts and I ordered me some Pumpkin Spice Latte deliciousness.  So I thoughttttt, today's nail polish could be none other than Sally Hansen Xtreme Wear in Pumpkin Spice!

(And just a disclosure, please forgive me for the watermark craziness on these pics.  I was all involved in watching The Vampire Diaries Season premiere last night that I just don't know what I was doing! LOL)








Isn't this yum?!?! I love this color! This totally kicks off the Fall season for me! I got this at Walgreens but I've also seen it in other drug stores as well as Ulta.  This is a black jelly base with orange glitter. For this look, it took me 5 coats, but if you apply this over 1 coat of any black polish, you can achieve the same, if not better look with maybe 2 coats of Pumpkin Spice instead.  Oh and I just want to mention, this one I actually used a Seche Vite top coat because I really wanted these sparkles to shine, and shine they did!

Soooo?? Thoughts? Do you own Pumpkin Spice? Do you like? dislike?

Hi all! Today I have a real treat.  I bought this polish a few years ago at a CVS.  They had a huge 75% off sale on cosmetics and had a bunch thrown into a bin.  It was like bobbing for apples in that thing!  I found a bunch of great lipsticks, glosses, etc...including this polish.  Today I have for you Sally Hansen Chrome Nail Makeup in Tourmeline Chrome.  This is unlike any polish I own to this day.  It really does have a chrome finish which is super cool.
