Wet ´n Wild Teal Of Fortune

Hi ladies!

Today I´ve got a really nice polish for you. Teal Of Fortune from Wet ´n Wild. When I was in Miami last october I picked this up at Walgreens. I hardly ever buy polish without seeing swatches, but on that holiday I bought a huge amount of polishes which I hadn´t seen before. This is one of them.

Yesterday I decided it was about time to try this polish. After the first 2 coats I seriously thought I but another Charla dupe. How in the world is that possible?!! In the bottle it definitely looks darker. And yes, after a 3rd coat it really did look different enough to justify owning both.

It´s a nice teal shimmer with gold micro glitter. Same sort of finish as Zoya Charla and Zoya Ivanka, but with a little less gold.

Pictures!

Nice!!! Well, that´s my opinion. What do you think?

Wet ´n Wild Back Alley Deals

Hello!

When I was in Miami I visited Walgreens quite a few times and each time there were new displays. The one with these Wet ´n Wild glitter polishes I found on my last day in Miami and decided I needed the purple one. And it´s awesome! It´s purple glitter with larger pink glitter. At first I thought it was red, but it really is pink.

Application wasn´t perfect, but no huge problems. I used 2 coats and that was enough. It dried extremely fast. Of course it just sucked the topcoat right in. It needs at least 2 coats of tc.

I hoped the pictures turned out great, but my camera couldn´t handle all the glitter and shineyness.

Really awesome! I love it!

Do you own any of these new Wet ´n Wild glitters?

Holiday shopping, BIG TIME!

Hi ladies!

I´ve been home now for a few days and what an amazing holiday it was! I loved Miami, I loved the Bahamas and I loved the cruise ship. And of course I did "some" shopping. I´ve read about all these stores in the US that lots of you ladies visit frequently. For me it was awesome! Walking right into Ulta while up till then I had only read about it. And Walgreens, Forever21, CVS, Ross, Icing, Del Sol and more. Just seeing all these great brands that I love displayed right in front of me. Some stores I haven´t found unfortunately (like Sally´s, Target, Walmart, Rite Aid) but I did some big time hauling. I tried only picking the ones that I had on my wishlist but I failed miserably. Bought a total of 31 polishes and 2 of the newest Konad plates, ooooppsss!

So here we go, this is what I got.

 Butter London No More Waity Kaitie + remover

 Color Club Back To Boho set (yes, the cheap 8 dollar sets are really sold at Ross)

Boho Mojo, Nouveau Vintage, Voodoo You Do, Artsy Crafty, Blue-topia, Rebel Spirit

Icing: Chrome Navy Blue, Irish Gold, Epic Winning, Vampire Blood, Witches Brew, Starlight

Orly Fowl Play, Orly Nite Owl, Orly Out Of This World, Zoya Neeka, Zoya Yara, OPI It´s My Year, OPI ds Top Coat

Sinful Colors Let Me Go, Wet ´n Wild Back Alley Deals, Wet ´n Wild Teal Of Fortune, Piggy Polish The Right To Bare Feet, Milani Blue Lightening

Nicole Me + Blue, Sally Hansen Icequeen, L`oreal Owl´s Night, Confetti Ice Ice Baby, Love & Beauty Shimmering Grey

M84 and M85

Besides all these brands I´ve seen many more and mostly at places I didn´t expect them. 

The Piggy Polish is unlabled, so I´m not sure it´s the right name... I actually found another one that looks a lot like it.

So what do you think ladies? Ready to see swatches? I´ve already used No More Waity Kaitie while I was on holiday. And OMG, the worst application ever!! Did I get a bad bottle or did you guys experience it too? I can´t even describe all the problems I had. I really hope some thinner would do the trick. I haven´t even made pictures of it.

I also used Blue Lightening, which I think is pretty close to OPI ds Magic. Will make a comparison some day. I did take pictures of this, so you´ll see that one soon.

Thanks for visiting!

Wet ´n Wild Eggplant Frost

Goodmorning!

Todays polish might actually be close to the new Orly Royal Velvet from their spring line. And SpaRitual Health Wealth and Happiness. But since I don´t own either of them, I can´t do a comparison.

Wet ´n Wild is a very cheap brand and I wish they would be sold here. But there´s always eBay, although they are a lot more expensive on eBay... And you can try abeautifulsecret.com, they also sell some Wet ´n Wild polishes.

The brush of Wet ´n Wild is very small, but that´s ok, you can work very precize with a small brush. For Eggplant Frost I used 2 coats for full opacity. It´s a really rich shade. The base color is a red toned purple and it has a blue toned purple flash. Pretty!

With a coat of my favorite TC (China Glaze Fast Forward) it´s even more shiny.

Have a look

What do you think? I really think it´s gorgeous!

Kleancolor Holo Chrome versus Wet ´n Wild Wild Orchid

Goodmorning ladies!

Another comparison today. I hope you´re not getting sick of it yet. I really like comparsion and they can be very useful.

The two polishes I´m comparing today don´t really look a like. They are both purple leaning a bit towards lavender. And they both have holographic glitter. But the glitters have very different structure. Kleancolor Holo Chrome has bigger and much more glitter and is much less smooth than the glitter in Wet´n Wild Wild Orchid. Because the glitter in Holo Chrome is bigger, it is also a lot more holographic.

Index and ring = Wet ´n Wild Wild Orchid
Middle and pinkie = Kleancolor Holo Chrome
Both 2 coats or maybe 3. I don´t remember, it´s been a while since I did this comparison. And I forgot to write it down.

I can´t really decide which one I like better. They are both pretty awesome. Which one do you like better?

Enjoy your day!
