#VOTM (toes): OPI Blue Shatter over ESSIE Sunday Funday

     In my Blackbox this month, I received the OPI Blue Shatter. So I decided to give it a try. This is actually my first crackle polish, so I was a little apprehensive in the beginning. I wanted something bright as the color underneath, so I chose ESSIE Sunday Funday. I like the Blue Shatter, though it is not something I would pick out, it was fun to try.

#VOTM Nailtini MAI TAI

     Today in my IPSY bag I received a varnish by Nailtini in the color MAI TAI. Its a beautiful coral color. I decided to go ahead and try it out since I have never tryed Nailtini prior to this. I really like the formula. I used 2 coats plus Nutra Nail Nail Srengthener as a base and top coat.



August Black Box

     I recently decided to subscribe to Cult Cosmetics monthly nail varnish subscription box, The Black Box. I received my first box yesterday & was really pleased with it. Every month you receive 3-4 varnishes plus some nail art tools. In my August box I received 2 ESSIE 1 OPI and a set of Mash dotting tools.

  • ESSIE Madison Ave-Hue (821): is a gorgeous pink with purple undertones and a slight shimmer. from the Spring 2013 collection.
  • ESSIE Rock The Boat (841): is a nice subtle baby blue with grayish undertones and a slight shimmer from the Summer 2013 collection

July Nail Collection Box

     I received my July box from The Nail Collection and was so pleased with the colors. This month I received one China Glaze, two Essie, and one OPI.

     The China Glaze varnish came in the color 1219 Are You Jelly? from the Summer 2013 Sunsational collection. Its described as  a 'vivacious purple jelly', which is absolutly gorgeous.
     The Essie varnishes are from Essie's Resort 2013 Collection. I received  839 Sunday Funday which is described as a 'tangerine coral crush shimmer' and 837 Naughty Nautical which is described as a 'marine blue green shimmer'. Both are simply amazing.
     And lastly the OPI varnish I received is NL M56 A Definite Moust-Have from the  2013 Couture de Minnie Collection. This varnish is described as a fuchsia but to me it is more of a stunning bright pinky coral.

#VOTM 12 June 2013

This is my first textured varnish, at first I wasn't sure if it was really my thing. After trying OPI's Liquid Sand varnish in Solitaire, I decided I kind of like it.
