Nfu Oh 51 over Color Club Disco Dress

Hi guys, sorry Ive got a delayed post for you today, I've been sick the last few days :(

I decided to spruce up my Color Club Disco Dress manicure seen here and add one of my favourite polishes - Nfu Oh 51!

So stunning, but hard to capture!

OPI DS Fantasy

Hi guys, today I'm showing you one of my favourite polishes! This is OPI DS Fantasy. I often don't wear this one because my bottle is always really hard to open, and it does stain :(

 Despite this, it is STUNNING! It is completely opaque in one coat and it's super smooth.

It's a super deep sapphire/navy blue with a very complex deep shimmer and some super subtle pismatic effects, but deffinately not holographic.

Unfortunately, Fantasy is discontinued and going for some hefty prices on eBay, ranging from about about thirty to sixty dollars a bottle :S

China Glaze DV8 & Nail Polish Ring!

Hi guys, today I'm showing you one of my alltime favourite polishes!

China Glaze DV8 from the OMG collection! I used two easy thin coats for this teal holographic goodness!

 I'm also wearing this awesome nail polish ring I got from etsy. This was made with Bandeau by Urban Outfitters (I'd never heard of this, but I think I need it!) and OPI DS Shimmer.

Comparison: OPI Catch Me In Your Net, Zoya Charla & Orly Halleys Comet

As some of you may know, OPI's Catch me in your net is one of my favourite polishes. Unfortunately this is discontinued and now, expensive, but I've got some cheaper alternatives for you!

Zoya and Orly have exact dupes of this colour! I've heard of a couple of US DS brands also do but I'm not aware of these sorry.

 

So, left to right is ORLY Halley's Comet from the Cosmic FX Collection, Zoya Charla from the Sparkle Collection and OPI Catch Me In Your Net from the Summer Flutter Collection.

All three were released in 2010.

 

For some reason in this photo, the OPI is appearing less sparkley, but this is not the case in real life. All three have three coats. The formulas are all pretty much identical, however I did feel my Orly was a little thicker, but this may be because it had been used a couple of times before. My favourite is the OPI, ONLY because it's my favourite brush, but it's not worth splurging ebay prices when you can get either of the other two for a fraction of the price, I was just lucky enough to come accross it in a dusty so I snatched it up :P The most economic is deffinately the ORLY especially when you consider it's 18mL compared to Zoya & OPI's 15mL.

Thanks for reading!

ORLY Frisky HOLO-FIED!

Hi guys, so yesterday I wore ORLY Frisky from the 2011 Happy Go Lucky Collection, I tried this colour when it first came out, and I loved it, but the staining, my god the staining! I don't mean my nails got a yellow tinge I mean my whole hands were blue! & Polish remover would not remove it (with acetone!) I had to use a special stain removing soap my dad had for getting like oil and grease or whatever out of clothes. But anyway, About a year later I decided to try it again, and my application has severely improved so I didn't get much on my skin at all, and what did, didn't stain. 

NOTE: I have not yet removed Frisky but will let you know if it stains  again :)

Anyway, onto the polish, it's a beautiful aqua leaning blue with brilliant opacity. 

I wore it like this to work for a day before wanting to spruce it up, I asked on MUA and I got reccomended flakies, but for some reason i was skeptical, and I'm glad I didn't listen because this morning I had a light bulb! DS Sapphire!

When I did my Pale blue Holo comparison I was seriously considering swapping away Sapphire simply because it was so sheer However I'm glad I thought because of that I could use it as a topcoat and kept it.\

Now how freakin' amazing is that! 

I have no words, just smiles.
