OPI Oz the Great and Powerful: Lights of Emerald City


This is a clear glossy shade with chunks of holographic glitter. The possibilities are endless—it would look great layered over so many bases.  I chose a shimmery blue/violet—Sally Hansen Xtreme Wear Virtual Violet.

Sephora by OPI Mr. Right Now


A red mani for Valentine's Day? Admittedly it's a little cliché but who can pass up a deep, glossy, sexy red like this shade? Sephora describes it as a wine, but your mileage may vary—it's a deep red on me.

More Big Fun at Big Lots: Tiara Style On Nails

Here's more proof that you don't have to spend a lot for cool nails. These press-on nails fit me perfectly. I like that they're not too long—makes it easier for me to type! $4 for twenty-four nails.

Rainbow Mani: China Glaze Cirque du Soleil It's a Trap-Eze

This is not the first rainbow mani I've done—see my previous posts: Rainbow Sherbet and Rainbow Marbled. But this was definitely the easiest. Just a few coats of this white-based rainbow glitter then a glossy topcoat and you're good to go.  If you like it then better act fast—I noticed this was the only sold-out shade in the limited edition Cirque du Soleil display!




The Winter Blues: NYC Water Street Blue with Sally Hansen Gem Crush in Showgirl Chic


Here's a follow-up to my blue mani post yesterday (link) I guess I've got the winter blues because I'm craving all shades of blue lately!
