Comparison of ManGlaze's The Death Tar and Zoya's Dovima

As the title says, here is a comparison of ManGlaze's The Death Tar and Zoya's Dovima next to each other. Both are lovely matte blacks, will have to also show Knock Out's Flatte, which is darker than both of these. On my ring and pinky nails are Zoya's Dovima and middle and index are ManGlaze's The Death Tar, they are nearly identical to each other to the naked eye right down to brush stroke appearances. Formula wise is where they differ, and that difference is huge.


The Death Tar applies evenly and is much thinner and easier to control. Both are shown with two coats applied. I definitely recommend ManGlaze's The Death Tar though. Still need to get Flatte up to compare next to these, think it is still my fav. ^^

Hello Kitty Lippy, The Death Tar, 13

I think my fav. part of the MAC Hello Kitty lippy packaging is the adorable stamp on the lipstick itself. This is a tube of Cute-Ster.



How saweet is that?


Also here's a shot of Man Glaze's The Death Tar.



Have a cold, super enjoyable. :/ Arrgh!


My bottle of March's 13 arrived yesterday from BPAL, now that is fast turnaround. This one is very spicey as opposed to the brown sugar from the last 13 release, was that January? My Chaos Theory: Snake Oil series came as well. OMG it smells of Snake Oil and moss, it is extremely earthy. Really like it and am curious as to how the Dorian based one smells. Must look up the reviews on BPAL.ORG.

Stuff. Order Galore!

Hmm, nail polish wise ManGlaze's The Death Tar, is less chippy than Knockout Cosmetics. I like the both though as there is a noticeable tint difference. So I thought I'd put a clear coat on The Death Tar, since there have been swatches out there showing it to be glossy with a rainbow sheen. Unfortunately that wasn't my experience, I got a just a bit of silver glimmer and it looked sort of muddy, so I'll stick to it as the lovely matte shade as is meant to be. Love how quickly it dries. Wearing two coats of Fuggen Ugly. Really a nice shade, good aged metal look. Would love a matte polish in a blood red shade, that'd be incredible...or ox blood. Foxy!


Springy again today, after that weird snow last night. Fluffy flakes were flying everywhere, but didn't stick. Was pretty to watch.


Dollhouse is getting saweet! Can always watch it @Hulu online as well. Talking to you Bird!


I miss D and the snarky comments made during Rainbow 6:Vegas 2 lol.


Went on a polish spree, bought three from Barielle, it was buy two get one free so I went for it...coming my way is Date Night,Decadence and Berry Blue! Also big old handful of polishes from Trans Design which should bring about some dark greens,more black or blackened shades,rainbow holo and more. As well as Amour Unique Ruby after seeing a post about it on Getcha Nails Did.

Man Glaze Polish,Reading...

My ManGlaze polish came friday, just getting around to trying them out, got both The Death Tar (best name ever!) and Fuggen Ugly. Got to love the suspect tagling 'What is thick,dries quick and looks totally sick?'. Heheh. I've seen on several blogs of people applying top coat to these which reveals some sick rainbow shimmer. But am really quite a fan of matte black polish. Still missing UD's Asphalt...oh bumpy flat black polish! /sigh.


If I ever find a replacement connection cord for my ancient cam, pics! But I think that more than likely will be saving up for a new camera, since that one truly is a relic.


Read Witchery (Ghosts of Albion) in it's entirety yesterday, was engrossing and fantastic. Amber Benson and Christopher Golden make a wonderful team. Highly suggest the books, and of course the web series archived here. I <3 Amber Benson. ^^ About to read her Death's Daughter book after I finish up Fransica Lia Block's Psyche in a Dress, which I think I might have read already.


Hmm, okay so The Death Tar is greyer in tint than Knockout Cosmetics black. I like both of them, both are matte but there is a difference in the finishes. Can't wait to try on Fuggen Ugly in a few days as it looks like a wicked almost gunmetal grey. Knockout's deco bottle is the prettiest polish packaging I've ever had, the frosted bottles are stunning and for such a long stem and brush it handles easily.


So warm yesterday and today, it was funny though. Snow everywhere on the ground yet so super springy, throwing snowballs in short sleeves lol. Be nice to finally have spring weather, it's truly been a long winter.


Want to be playing Rainbow 6 Vegas:2! With it's scary making music.
