Chunky Holo Goodness

I dont have many words to describe this super-awesome polish from Kleancolor..except one:
AWESOME!

This is another thing the word "awesome" reminds me :p

Below is 2 coats of Kleancolor chunky holo black on Colorama black as a base.

Smooth application, didnt require any struggle to pick up the glitter. Does have a weird smell so keep your windows open.

This is a pic of the bottle. Its a super nice black jelly with big, medium and small holo hex glitters.

I wasnt able to capture the colour shift well.

The applied polish changes from a red to orange to yellow to green in various angles of light both indoors and out doors. It is not an in your face glitter, but it does get attention.

Strawberry Fields

Strawberries are my favourite. And when I think of them I imagine a tall glass of freshly whipped cream layered with strawberries and a big dollop of strawberry icecream lost in the middle of it. Slurrrpppp!!

Something like this ! (Droolll!)

Coming back to my mani, this is the only 2nd China Glaze I currently have. Strawberry Fields. Its a bright pink shade with golden glass fleck shimmer. I love how the gold flecks are seen at different angles.

Of course I couldnt leave it alone. So I stamped it in 2 different colours using the same pattern.

Stamping Plate: XL B

Stamping colours: Konad Sp. White and Blue Pearl

Yeah I managed to smudge the stamper on my ring finger :-(

How do you the colour and the mani?

Gold coins

Today I wasnt in the mood for any eleborate design. I just wanted to do something subtle and simple.

I used OPI: You dont know Jacques and Lakme (local indian brand).

Base: OPI : You don't know Jacques

Dots: Lakme 040 metallics

I did dots from the biggest to smallest using all dotting tools I had.

I have a stamp for the a very similar design too, but wasnt in the mood for stamping.

So if you dont have a stamping plate you can do this jus well with dotting tools :)

♥ Valentine Day Nail Art ♥

Valentine's day would probably be incomplete without the colour red. 

So here is a traditional Valentine NOTD.

I have used one of my faux OPI polishes in a bright red.

Very pretty smooth creme and it stamps really well, this one.

Below is a swatch of the same.

Base: Faux OPI Bright Red

Hi You!!

I am going to try to do a couple of nail art posts for Valentine's Day.

What are your plans for Valentine's Day?

Me? Hmmm..Havent decided yet. Need to rack my brains for some ideas.

Meanwhile enjoy these pics. Also have a question: is this design a Yay! or Nay!???

I've had extreme reviews on this designs. Some really loved it, some didn't like at all.

I need to know how you feel about this one.

Base: Revlon Sunshine Sparkle

Hearts: Freehanded 

I accentuated the ring finger with Glitter nail polishes on the hearts.

 These are all the polishes used. The first 4 glitters were used for the accent finger.

How did you like this?

Do you wanna see another Valentine Nail art in RED?

This is important for non bloggers as Google is disconnecting GFC from March 1st.

Zig Zag Audrey

Hello Fellows, (just wanted to rhyme that :p)

This is my first China Glaze nail polish ever.

I got mine from an upcoming online store Spastore.in. Though it isnt operational yet, the founder said he'd get them for me since I was such a big nail buff. I ordered 5 of them from him straight away :D

This post is about: "For Audrey". It is a muted bright blue..more like sky blue or pastel blue. Very pretty.

The swatch doesnt do justice as I was trying to capture the pic at night time.

It a nice smooth creme finish with gloss. Drying time is decent. It is opaque in one coat, but very slightly streaky. I used 2 coats in the pics below to smoothen it out. I have a feeling it will work well as a stamping colour. Have you tried to stamp with it?

For the nail art below:

Base: CG For Audrey

Stamping: Sally Hansen insta-dri Pronto Purple

Image plate: S6

Hope you liked it. I will announce my giveaway winners this Saturday. Thank you all for your patience. I am almost done sorting the entries.
