Nubar Baby Sprout from The Spring Garden Collection

I absolutely love this colour!! Nubar did a really good job with this one. It is very well pigmented and you only need two coats to achieve full coverage. This colour is a really unique, pale mint green. Just beautiful.

China Glaze Starboard From The Anchors Away Collection

I love this nail polish. This is truly perfection. I love this perfect green, not too blue and not too yellow. The application was perfect in two coats. Love it!

OPI Glow Up Already! From The Burlesque Collection 2010

Finally the glitters from OPI Burlesque Collection are here. They are spectacular, fabulous and sparkle-iscious. OPI Glow Up Already! is a mix of light green and gold glitter that sometimes looks green and sometimes looks golden, depending on the light. There is some blue and even orange glitter as well. This is only two coats but I think it needed three.

Orly Cosmic FX Collection Part 1

This is the most anticipated collection that I've known for a long time. This collection contains 6 shimmery, glittery, duochrome nail polishes. There are two groups: the plummy purple colors and the blue and green colors. The application was great. Some of them needed three coats and some only two.
Let's start with the blue and green nail polishes.

Orly It's Not Rocket Science has an olive green base with lots of fine green, yellow and gold glitter with a smooth finish. It is slightly douchrome. This is 2 coats. It was the nail polish that I wanted to see in person from the promo pics. I like the colour more in the bottle than on my nails because it doesn't suite my skin tone.







Orly Halley's Comet is like a camelleon. It is blue-green in sunlight and green-blue in indoor light. In the photos below, the green isn't so obvious like in real life. It has a blue base with lots of green and golden shimmery glitter with a smooth finish. Most of you know that this is a dupe with Zoya Charla and OPI Catch Me in Your Net but HC is the most opaque of the three. It changes color from blue turquoise to green turquoise. This is two coats.








Orly Lunar Eclipse has the same wonderful blue base color as Orly Royal Navy but with lots of pink, fuchsia. blue, purple, fine shimmery glitter with a smooth, foil finish. This is one of my favorites from this collection. This is three coats.

OPI Jade Is The New Black From The Hong Kong Collection 2010

The next nail polish from the Hong Kong collection that I have for you is OPI Jade Is The New Black. This is a dusty, dark green with just a slight tinge of blue. I like this colour a lot. It flatters my skin tone. The colour has a good quality, maybe, because of its dusty appearence. The application was flawless and this is 2 coats.

Index: Yell-Oh!, Middle: 220 Volts, Ring: Blue Light, Pinky: Wild Child.

Thumb: Orange Revenge, Index: Lazer Pink, Ring: Pink Flame, Pinky: Power Play.

Color Club Yell-Oh!, 3 coats.
A neon highlighter yellow.
This is one of my favourites.

Color Club Pink Flame, 2 coats.
In the picture, it is brighter than in real life.
It is a pale hot pink.

Color Club Orange Revenge, 2 coats.

Color Club Orange Revenge, 2 coats.
The most brightest orange I have ever seen!
A truly unique colour.
It is neon and the slight matte texture gives its bright and
truly stunning colour.
This isn't like the other neon matte.
It is slightly glossy just like the other colours
in this bright collection.
The second photo shows the colour best!

Color Club Lazer Pink, 2 coats.
A very beautiful candy pink that stand out from the crowd.
An amazing colour like this is very hard to find.
In real life it is more lighter that in the picture, without the blueish tone.

Color Club Blue Light, 3 coats.
This colour is a baby blue that I wanted very badly!!
It is more lighter in real life.
I will have to give this 3 thumbs up!

Color Club Pink Rush, 2 coats.
A trully unique colour!
It is very hard to photograph this neon collection and capture the real colour.
I would have to say that this hot pink is leaning to red.
One thing for sure is that this colour is a must have
from this collection.

Color Club 220 Volts, 2 coats.
Another blue... that stands out from the crowd!
It is very close to the picture, maybe a little bit lighter.
A vibrant blue that has something special.
LOVE IT!

Color Club Power Play, 2 coats.

Color Club Power Play, 2 coats.
 A fruitful purple leaning towards hot pink with a slight blue tone.
OMG, it is so hard to describe this flattering colour.
Like 220 Volts, it has something special.

NOTD: Nail Art

Today I have tried, for the first time, polka-dots.
It is fun and easy to apply.
I encourage you all to try this.
Here are some photos of my current NOTD, Orly Green Apple as a base and Color Club Lazer Pink as the polka-dots.
If anyone asks, I have used a toothpick to make the dots.

You have to be patient because this takes a very long time to dry.


Orly Green Apple - base, 3 coats and Color Club Lazer Pink - polka-dots.
