Current Top 20 Polishes

Hey guys!

This post is gonna be about my current Top 20 polishes at the moment.
I have a good sized collection but there is a lot that I haven't worn/swatched. For that reason, I didn't include those for consideration.
For this reason, my Top 20 will change periodically with new purchases and swatchings.


L to R: SOPI metro chic, Misa high waist hue, OPI merry midnight, OPI sapphire in the snow, NFU-oh 51


L to R: Wet n Wild Crazee in Shield, Essie in Chinchilly, ELF in Blush, ELF in Champagne, ELF in Mod Mauve




L to R: Maybelline in Brown Aluminium, China Glaze in Ruby Pumps, China Glaze in Cords, China Glaze in VII, American Apparel in Dynasty



L to R: Zoya in Jacy, LA Girl in  Addict, La Girl in Indigo (F21 name), LA Girl in Double Platinum, Diamond Cosmetics in Chainmail Charm




I wanted to show you the awesome effect of these two Holos. They are so awesome! Double Platinum is holo glitter and Chainmail Charm is a holo polish.


One word to describe holos? BRILLIANT!


Let's see if my upcoming Transdesign order full of pastels (i hardly have any!), holos, glitter, and new Misa polishes will make the cut for the next Top 20.

Do you have any of these? Would they make your Top 20?

Haul: Dollar Tree Finds!


Hey Guys! This is gonna be a haul from the Dollar Tree. One night i convinced the BF to take me even tho he protested. I pouted and he gave in. HA! Works every time :) Well, okay... ALMOST every time.


L to R: Maybelline Plushed Plum, Must be Mink!, Brown Aluminum, and Khaki Fringe
I put on Brown Aluminum and wow, its lovely! The silver speckles are very noticeable in the bottle AND the nail.


L to R: Maybelline Nude Beach, Matte Olive, Mink in a Moment

All of the Maybelline polishes seem pretty amazing in pigment and formula. Some of the colors are alright. I just thought it would be a quick, cheap way to try some new colors and polishes.


L to R: Sally Hansen Steel Creme, Foxy Frost, Sassy Frost, Leather or Not

Unlike the Maybellines, these aren't too great. These are very thin and runny that i think i will hold off even wearing these because i can only imagine the hassle.

But for a $1, i won't complain. Maybe i can use them for frankening some new polishes? Hmmmm....

Well, thats it guys. I better go to the slab (AKA my dinner table) and study for the accounting final i have tomorrow morning at 10am. UGH 10AM!! But at least that means i will be done by noon.


Oh and i wanted to do this quick little... tag or poll thing i saw on another blog. Totally forget who it was tho..

1. How is your week so far?
Pretty lame aside from the awesome new stuff in my stash!

2. What’s your favorite ice cream flavor?
I love Cheesecake kinds like from Ben % Jerrys but i also love coconut and coffee too. Oh geez.. i just frickin love ice cream

3. What’s on your nails?
Right now i have Misa High Waist Hue. I love it!

4. If you could have 1 totally extravagant Christmas present (price doesn’t matter) what would it be?
Geez... i guess it would be paid tuition and rent until i finish school. It would be so much nicer than what i am doing now. Ugh

5. What’s the weather like in your neck of the woods?
COLD AS HELL. With wind chills its been 8-18 degrees out here. Luckily, its been dry so far otherwise there would be snow. Ugh SNOW

6. What’s your favorite article of clothing?
Gosh... I don't know right now. Lately, i'm just not into clothes. I'M INTO NAILS!

7. If your house was on fire and you could only grab three things (only inanimate objects), what would they be?
My bunnies, Purse, and some photo albums with pictures of my mother.

8. What is your favorite eyeshadow palette?
I've been using my NYX Smokey Eye Kit quite a bit so i guess thats my current fav

9. If you could only wear one color of nail polish for the rest of your life, which one would it be?
Its so hard to choose but i really love China Glaze VII right now.

10. What’s on your agenda this weekend?
Well Friday i work in the morning and will probably do some Christmas related things over the weekend but i just may RELAX considering i work 9-5 on a damn Saturday for move out. Depending how busy we are, it may not be too bad but we really have no clue at this point. Just not looking forward to it.

Anyway... Toodles!
