Chanel Peridot

Hello!

Yes, I did it too, I bought Chanel Peridot. And yes, I think it´s expensive. But in this case it was worth it. OMG, this one is awesome!!!

I don´t think it´s necessary to describe this baby, since you have been seeing this shade all over polish-blog-land in the past few weeks.

Application was smooth and easy. 2 coats I used. And I want to say that this is a gold polish that truly looks good on my skintone. Well, maybe you disagree, but that´s how I feel.

Pictures!!

I do still wonder how much of the price is just for the name Chanel... Probably about 90%.

Thanks for stopping by and have a wonderful day!

PS: thanks to PolishSis I found a way to react to comments again. I will try to react to comments from the last few weeks, but it might take a while. I will definitely be answering and commenting to any comments that will be left from now on! Thanks for you patience!

Help needed... Blogger-expert anyone?

Hi ladies!

I really hope someone can help me out. I haven't been able to comment on blogs including my own for weeks now. This really bothers me!! You girls do your best to to write me something, which I can not react to. That's not fair! It looks like I don't care if you respond to my blog or not, but I really do appreciate it.

Does anyone know what I can do to make this error go away?

Thanks!

Surprise! I already have 2 of the Orly Holiday Soiree

Hello ladies!

Well, 2 days ago I talked about what I was looking forward to the most. I must admit that I prepare my post about a week before they are posted. While I was looking for pictures of the Holiday Soiree collection I actually found not one, but even two dutch sites that already had this collection. OMG!!! I couldn´t believe what I was looking at. So I decided to order 2 of them. I got Oui and Androgynie.

Here´s a bottle shot.

Don´t they look awesome?!
These babies come with baby nailfiles, but my daughter pulled them of the bottles before I could blink my eyes, haha.

Of course I couldn´t wait to use these babies and I used Oui first. And she is GOR-GEOUS!
Application was great.
This is 2 coats.



What do you think? Impressed? Disappointed? I really love this one! I already loved Zoya Faye, which is a lighter version of Orly Oui, but this one is even more beautiful. You see how many different faces she has depending on the light?

Thanks for visiting and reading my blog!

What collections are you looking forward to the most?? Here are some of mine

Goodmorning ladies!

Today I decided to show you what collections I´m looking forward to the most. And of course I´m really curious what you are all looking forward to.

Here´s my list:

Orly Holiday Soiree


Orly Mineral FX


OPI new Designer Series



OPI Holiday Muppets




Color Club Backstage Pass



Color Club Beyond The Mistletoe




Essie Luxeffects




China Glaze Let It Snow



Well, that´s a whole lot of glitters :-) I´m not sure yet which ones are the lucky polishes that get a new home in my Helmer, but I´m sure it´s going to be quite a lot.

Unfortunately it seems Orly has made quite some dupes... Here´s a list of what I THINK might be dupes:

Orly Fowl Play (Birds of a Feather collection) = OPI Merry Midnight
Orly Rococo A-Go-Go (Mineral FX collection) = Zoya Valerie
Orly Igenue (Holiday Soiree collection) = Orly Rock The World (Mineral FX collection) = Zoya Faye = OPI Rally Pretty Pink
Orly Oui (Holiday Soiree collection) = OPI It´s My Year

So what´s your favorite collection that´s coming up?

Thanks for watching!

NYX Aqua Glitter over OPI Yoga-ta Get This Blue

Hello!

A very nice layering combo is what I have for you today. I totally adore both polishes! Yoga-ta Get This blue was one of my first polishes. And still the most pretty dark blue shimmer I own. What I like most is that eventhough it´s dark, it never looks black.
NYX Aqua Glitter is a polish I didn´t buy with my first purchase at Beautyjoint. But now I´ve got it, I really don´t get why I hesitated. Damn, this is pretty!! It has an aqua very sheer base with a blue/green duochrome glitter. It shifts from a very bright blue (almost violet) to teal green. It´s so sparkly and gives so much extra dept to Yoga-ta Get This Blue.

I used 2 thin coats of the OPI and 1 thick coat of the NYX. Both had great application. And totally not gritty or anything. Drying time was fast too.



I was so excited to show you this from the moment I applied it, but unfortunately it was hard to capture the glitter and its duochrome and the dept.... *sigh*... But still, I really love this combo! It´s so pretty! I can´t wait to try this over a nice dark purple, that might give an awesome effect as well I think.

Hope you enjoyed my post and thanks for visiting!
