#TGPNPC Prettiest: Day 27 of The Neverending Pile Challenge

Pin It
Hi,

Today I bring to you one of the prettiest polishes I own. And yes, it is green-blue and gorgeous!
Another Galaxy by Glam Polish

This is Another Galaxy by Glam Polish, multiple sizes of metallic sapphire and matte turquoise hex with matte turquoise stars and large turquoise holo dots in a mint crelly base.

These are three coats each. The glitters, even the large ones, came out easily. Though I did place them strategically as my nails are pretty curved and the large glitters stick out. I 'glassed' this manicure with a thick coat of Seche Vite.

Here's a macro shot so you can see the glitters more clearly. Excuse the bubbles. The humidity in my city has messed up my SV. I fell head over heels for this polish. Did you like it? Don't forget to leave a comment.

#TGPNPC Discontinued: Day 18 of the Neverending Pile Challenge

Pin It
Hi lovelies,

I consider myself still new to the nail polish world, so I do not own branded discontinued polishes. Though I do have an indie, which was a limited edition polish, and one of the two polishes that pushed me into buying indies. Presenting: Different Dimension (bir)Earthday!
Different Dimension (bir)Earthday

Missi Barry, the creator, described (bir)earthday as a navy jelly base with loads of glitter in different shapes and sizes! There are green and blue huge circular holographic glitters, big blue holographic squares and lots of other random glitters - all in the colors of the earth!
Different Dimension (bir)Earthday

Missi had put out just 50 bottles on sale. And she named it (bir)eathday to celebrate her birthday (4/22) which happens to fall on Earth Day! This is three coats of the polish, with Seche Vite top coat. Though it is still sheer, I love the jelly effect. Next time maybe, I'll layer it over another polish.

Check out its bling factor! I loooove this polish. What about you? Do not forget to leave a comment.

#TGPNPC Had to have it, still haven’t worn it: Day 9 of Neverending Polish Challenge

Pin It
Hi lovelies,

Considering this is the Neverending Polish Challenge, many of us would have umpteen polishes that fall under this theme. I had three major lemmings: Picture Polish Kryptonite, Zoya Veruschka and A-England St George (yes, yes, I do realise they are all green). Since St George from the Legends Collection is the first lemming I quenched, here's the STUNNING beauty!
AEngland St George stamped with China Glaze Passion using Konad M54
The website describes it as "Bearer of a valiant & courageous heart, this fathomless teal reveals the strength of the brave knight's convictions with his gleaming, fiery core."
St George is a saturated green-leaning teal. This scattered holo is a one-coater! So it is probably better to load up on the basecoat to avoid staining.

I got this before the Royal Mail debacle happened. Though I have the entire Legends collection, I so wish Royal Mail would remove the ban so that I can get my hands on more of Adina's polishes.

I was in a hurry so I did not take standalone photographs of this polish alone. I used Konad M54 to stamp flowers like roses and tulips using China Glaze Passion (a rocking gold chrome polish which is awesome for stamping).
Thankfully, this comes on a Friday and the next challenge is on Monday, so I can wear it a lot longer than the previous manicures.  I loved this manicure, what about you? Do leave a comment below. I read them all.

#TGPNPC Glitter: Day 1 The Neverending Pile Challenge

Pin It

Hi lovelies,

Like every polish lover, I have my share of untrieds. I felt guilty looking at them, till my good friend Dhara from The Happi Therapy told me about the Neverending Pile Challenge by Missy of Gnarly Gnails.
If you're interested in joining, it's running through a group on Facebook called the Glittah Pirates. The point is to use the polishes you bought with love, passion and hardearned cash, but never got around to wearing them. I have way too many of them gathering dust, so here goes....

OPI The Living Daylights Matte
The glitter is OPI The Living Daylights from the 2012 Skyfall collection. I mattified it with OPI Matte Top Coat. Here's the glossy version.
OPI The Living Daylights Glossy
The Living Daylights is a glitter topper with a mix of silver, light gold, teal and copper (or is it peach) metallic hexes in a clear base. As you can see here, it can be used sparsely for gradients, or for full nail cover just as easily.
These are actually two untrieds here. The base is the very cheesy sounding Pinky Pamper, a pastel nudish pink, from the Colorbar Quick Finish range.


If you are interested in the challenge, here's what is in store:
