Tough As Nails Lacquer - It's All Over Now

It's All Over Now has hexes of white, blue, violet, lavender, & iridescent green, with white shards, all in a soft grey jelly base. Application was great with little to no manipulation required. Though it dries a bit lumpy looking, topcoat fixes that right away! I find this polish very soothing to look at. The color combos are just perfect. 

This is 1 coat of It's All Over Now over OPI I Vant To Be A-Lone Star (which can be seen by itself here), except on my ring finger which has 3 coats of IAON by itself. I have to say they look pretty identical! All fingers have 2 coats of topcoat.

OPI - I Vant To Be A-Lone Star

I Vant To Be A-Lone Star is a very light blue-grey creme with a hint of silver shimmer throughout. It's a really soft & pretty color. This is actually the first OPI polish that I ever bought & it's still one of my favorites!

This is 3 coats of I Vant To Be A-Lone Star with 1 coat of topcoat.

OPI - Suzi Says Feng Shui

This polish is a dusky blue that leans teal, a really beautiful color. I've heard that it's a dupe for Zoya Breezi or vice versa. Application was fantastic - nice and smooth. This is 2 coats of Suzi Says Feng Shui, with 1 coat of top coat.

I'm absoultely loving this color! And the best part is I got this polish for a penny on Copious when they gave out their $10 credits! :D


My random song of the night is "The Last Beat of My Heart" by Siouxsie & The Banshees.

OPI - Rainbow Connection

I don't usually wear glitter polishes by themselves, but I just had to make an exception for this one. It is sooo ridiculously purdy!! I am seriously enamored.

All of these pics were taken outdoors in the shade:













I didn't buy this polish when it first came out back around Christmas time last year, and I had been kicking myself ever since. Then Nicole by OPI released "Rainbow in the S-Kylie" which is an exact dupe for this polish, but I absolutely can't stand the Kardashians, so I refused to buy that one! Luckily I found this baby on eBay for about $12, yes a little more expensive than the NOPI version, but well worth it in my opinion. I just couldn't live with myself if I gave any of my money to the Kardashians.. haha!!

OPI - I Don't Give A Rotterdam!

From the moment I saw this color months ago I knew I had to have it!! It's such a pretty and soft shade of dusty periwinkle. And as if that weren't enough, it also has bits of silver and gold shimmer that add to it's beauty. Best of all the color looks exactly the same on the nail as it does in the bottle, unlike some other polishes (I'm talking 'bout you Essie Dive Bar!!). So I'm very glad to say that this one did not disappoint!

OPI - Mod About You, Sinful Colors - You Just Wait, and Pretty & Polished - The Amazing Technicolor Topcoat!

I have been buying way too much polish lately so I have way too many untrieds.. to combat this I've been doing some layering experiments so that I can wear multiple polishes at once.

First I started off with 3 coats of OPI "Mod About You"..

Then I decided to add 1 coat of Sinful Colors "You Just Wait"..

All of these pics are indoors, with flash:




Even though that looked super pretty, I just had to add Pretty & Polished "The Amazing Technicolor Topcoat" because I've been dying to use it..

 The next 4 pictures were taken outdoors:
