Shades by Barielle in Slate of Affairs

My Shades by Barielle haul arrived saturday, while I didn't take a group shot I do have pics of Slate of Affairs and I have to say it doesn't capture on film how lovely it really is. The light blue shimmer that runs through the creamy grey blue slate shade is just marvelous.

Indoors, three coats top of Poshe.

Outdoors, slightly overcast. Look how vastly different it appears outdoors.

Sally Hansen Hard as Nails Xtreme Wear Gunmetal

I found this in a little bowl for fifty percent off at CVS, with two other polishes (there was another of this one,and a caustic looking pink). Wahey! Really, really like this one, such a strong blue lean to this aptly named Gunmetal polish. Two coats (Hard as Nails/Xtreme Wear Gunmetal) and Poshe top. ^^.

Indoors.

Outdoors, sunlight. Sorry for the tip wear, have had this on a couple of days and just thought now to get a snap!

Zoya's Matte Collection

Woot! Look what arrived last night, boing! Zoya's Matte Collection! Haulzilla!

from left to right; Posh, Dovima and Loredana.

Hopefully pictures posted tonight of Posh, because that is so calling my name to be tried out first. ^^

Butter London Chimney Sweep

Here's another of my Butter polishes, this time it is a super shiny grey called Chimney Sweep, it is very nearly black but falls short of it and it is shiny once its on, but I do have a top coat of Poshe on, so I must add that disclaimer. There are three coats of Chimbley on ^^. The outdoor picture you can really see the shine. Sorry not the best of clean up here. The formula on this one was great, I could have gotten away with just the two coats.

Indoor lighting.

Outdoors, overcast.

Have some lovely Illamasqua" polishes on their way to me that I am very excited about. ^^ Like a lot of people Phallic was one of my purchases. So gorgeous. Check out this post @ Bring on the Bling showing just how beautiful it is.

Close on the nerdery again. @E3 they released the trailer for FFXIV, the New MMORPG coming next year and look hi rez choco! How cute. Looks hefty on the same looking hume guy. ZOMG. But still. Have enough to get through in XI, but can't say I'm not curious about XIV Oh, yes trailer. Where's the taru?!!! Embedded below.

Oh the Official XIV site is up with screenies & trailer @ http://finalfantasyxiv.com

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.
