Black don't Crack?

Well thats not always true because this black most definitely cracks . Now I know everyone has heard the old adage that 'Black don't crack' especially if you grew up in a black home.
As usual my thought process went awry so back on track. I recently purchased Kelier Nails Crack polish in black from Born Pretty Store. I love it even though its kind of tricky to apply. So after the holidays are over I will be going to the site to purchase the rest of the colors. I really dont feel like going into a full on review but I think the fact that I would rebuy and plan to in the very near future speaks volumes. So now its picture time. This black crack polish over Sally Hansen Insta-dri in Lightening.

Double Jaded Flowers

Sorry for the blah title but thats all I could think of. Im officially tired of eating thanksgiving food because everytime I eat I get sleepy as all hell. Im tired of eating mashed potatoes ( never thought that would ever happen). J'adore une pomme de terres *french for I love potatoes* Mrs. Brittingham would be so pleased to know I still remember most of my french.
Anywho today's official NOTD which I just got finish doing is had more technical fouls than a football game. First it was trying to find a suitable dark green to stamp with to the base color smudging and smearing when trying to stamp. Finally everything worked itself out and Im really loving it. The base color is 2 coats of Avon nailwear pro in Jade. Two coats were a must because though the polish is really pigmented the formula is kinda thin. My stamping polishes were SH insta-dri in Jumpin' Jade (flowers) and China Glaze Devotion (chains). I really like how the green on green shading turned out but next time I think Ill use gold for the accent color. The images were stamped from the bundlemonster plates *bm12 to be exact*.

I love Boobies (Candy Coated Boobies)

Or mine at least. Hi guys because this month is Breast Cancer Awareness month *though its almost over* everyone has been posting pretty pink manis and I wanted to jump on the bandwagon. So I wanted a post where I could incorporate all my pinks without alot os swatching. If you hadnt noticed its not really my strong point. Anyways when I first saw this mani on Katrina's blog I wanted to try it but I wasnt sure how it would turn out but then I saw it again over at Cosmetic Cupcake. So I was like what the hey I might as well give it a try. So here is my variation. I forewarn you its not that great.

September Haulage 2010

So basically this is semi big purchases I did last month. One from the beginning of September and on from last tuesday. So I guess Ill start with tuesdays purchases.

I picked up 3 Sally Hansen mini polish set at Big Lots for $2.50each. Unfortunately none of them have names printed on them. ( So my next trip to Rite-Aid the salelady will think Im crazy when she sees me doing bottle comaprison in the aisle trying to find full sizes of several of these.) They also had the Nail Tek Step 1 primer on clearance for 2.99 so I picked that up as well as a $5.00 Revlon manicure gift set because it had a glass file. I should have gotten 2 of each now that I think about it.

from l to r: ChG five golden rings, Nina Blu Blaze, ChG golden enchantment, and moonlight

 In Sallys I picked up 4 polishes from the clearance table.  I had a buy 2 get a dollar off coupon for China Glaze so since they were on $1.99 on sale I ened up getting them all for about $7.50.

Everything below I purchased from Transdesign.

 from l to r: China Glaze lubu heels, high maintenance, and first and last

 from l to r: China Glaze mummy may i, zombie zest, ick-a-bod-y, fast forward topcoat

 from l to r: China Glaze devotion, joy, and  awaken

 China Glaze Emerald Fitzgerald

Nail Tek  foundation II

So what have you hauled lately and do you see anything here that you own or that your just dying to get your hands on?

Dollar Tree / Wal-Mart Haul

These are the goodies that I picked up in Pocomoke this past weekend.

This is Revlon Minted. This is I believe 2 coats maybe 3. This is a pretty shade of mint though kinda light for my taste. Application was ok though drying time could have been a little faster.

I absolutely love matte polishes so I hit the jackpot at the dollar tree. They had the old Maybelline mattes.

This gorge beauty is Maybelline Matte Grey. The application was flawless. It only really needs 1 coat but because Im clumsy I did 2.

This is Maybelline Matte Sapphire. I almost didnt get this because I wasnt feeling the color. I changed my mind fast when I realized it was a glittery matte. When matte this really isnt my cup of tea but topcoat this baby  and she just shines like the night sky.

Here is Maybelline City Slick. this is my fave from this haul.(not surprising since grey/pewters are my fave polish color after Purple of course) Great application also a 1 coater.

Maybellines Purple Aluminum has to be the stand out of this outing. I really didnt have high hopes  for this one based on the bottle and boy was I wrong. Looking at the bottle all I saw was straight silver microglitter/shimmer in what I assumed was dark grey polish. I started to reshelve it until I read the name. You guys know Im a sucker for a purple polish. Im glad I kept this one. She isnt gorgeous she is just plain beautiful.

This pretty is Revlon Lilac Pastelle. I couldnt really get her color accurate. She is a touch more purple than these pictures show.

I picked this up earlier last week in Rite-Aid. I went with full intention to purchase Sally Hansen Purple Gala but somehow ended up with Purple Pizzazz because I was rushing and got the names mixed up. She is still pretty though. She has what looks to be mini flakies. Pictures arent color accurate.

So if you have any of these tell me how you like them?

Jeepers Creepers its Jumpin Jade

So this is what happens when my go to shade of jade gets bite by the Halloween bug.

This is Sally Hansen Jumpin Jade all decked out in Devotion from China Glaze. The image plate is BM13 (how ominous is that: 13) from bundle monster of course.



I love halloween its my all time fave holiday. Only I would do a halloween mani in September using what others deem as Christmas colors. *Insert an evil laugh here* Well starting now until Halloween I'll be rocking spookilicious manis.











So in the spirit of Halloween if you could be someone else for a day who would you be and why?
