Nars Ziggy,Rocky,Orly

Here's Nars' Ziggy, it is cute, but the formula was just not fantastic. Very streaky this one was. It is such a gorgeous shimmery almost buttery gold. Does not at all suit my skin tone. Blech. Pale and pink ftl!! Naah just gold doesn't suit me. Heh.



Putting in on it reminded me a lot of Chanel's (Petillant) Shine.



They are certainly closely matched Ziggy being a touch warmer.


Thought I'd spruce Ziggy up with a coat (will add another I think) of Orly's Prisma Gloss Gold.




Oh they match an old pair of Kaos eyelets! Would downsize to match lol, they are cute!


What a mess I made of this hasty mani, ordered some more of those correction pens when I caved and purchased Revvvolution, so this time I will be honouring the non messy pics when I have more. Oh and for fun I thought I'd post a picture of my Rocky Johnson, he is sat on a suction cup, he knocked over his hammock that was attached to the cup. lol. Isn't he handsome? ^^



Played FFXI, and didn't get my en spells, a friend was able to locate some of the new WHM spells for me though. Quelle surprise another maintenance today. There is always maintenance after maintenance. Should just announce it will be two days in a row. Oh Squeenix. XD

Orly, BPTP's Polishes

Hmm, taking the blame off Essie's Mesmerize, I think it does need a longer drying time but I think the problem with all the denting may lie with the new base I used as I had problems with it to a much lesser scale when applying Orly's Love Each Other. The base I'd used Sally Hansen Complete Care Four in One extra moisturizing. Think I'll stick with my oldy but goodie base.


This is three coats of Love Each Other. Didn't half like it on, was sheerer than expected and is much more dramatic in bottle. Plus it show's the state of mass staining despite the buffing. Too much dark the past two months showing over despite the base coats. Was able to reshape them to a much nicer shape. Amazing what a picture shows as opposed to what you see. So sorry for the state of them. Sheers are a no go atm! That index nail before, Woof! But I think Love Each Other would look great on a black cream as a top coat.



Thought I'd post a picture of BPAL's BPTP's Claw Polish . Click on the thumb below to get a full size picture.



These are great, a cute feature on some of the newer bottles is if you breath on it or it gets fogged up the Triple Dagger logo appears on the sides. The polishes are really lovely and the tints in order of picture are from left to right: Embalming Fluid which is a glow in the dark polish with fine iridescent glitter, Midnight on the Midway, Mmm. Moriarty, Blood Countess, Morgause, Lady Macbeth, Destroying Angel, Opium Poppy and Maiden.


The polishes are a lovely formula, three free and all. I reach for these often. Destroying Angel is such a lovely vampy dark brown. A picture doesn't do it justice.

Retried Pictures, IS/Anatometal, NFU Oh 50

Alrighty, here's better pictures of the head on and shot of the wearable/saddle on the Industrial Strength's Gem Eyelets and Anatometal's 'Blings' Gem Eyelets. To see the information about them please check this earlier post which goes into the difference of gems,metals worn and wearables. IS's Gem Eyelets are now available in a Double Flare option.



Saddle and wearable comparison shot.



Head on comparison of widths and channel setting depth.


Still researching cameras. My crown fell off today. >.> /Groan Hot dental action tomorrow to get it repaired.


Alrighty here's another shot of Nfu Oh 50 with flash on.



Mini review on Feria's new formula. Not loving it at all, I don't do whole head for months at a time choosing to stick with roots and then if it has really faded out drag the rest through via their instructions. Am now straw-like and need a larger trim than I'd hoped to do and much deep conditioning. Guess I will go back again to Clairol or splash out for that Fekkai one down the road. But there is humour, my hair is light black so I like to dye it blue black on occasions, here's the kicker it grows in grey in front so for the first few washes I have electric highlights, which are especially neon in sunlight. Mind the flash.



Feria...for teh lulz


Was grabbing a prescription at the pharmacy and was mesmerized by Orly's Love Each Other polish, it truly is cute pinky and purplish flash in it. Think that will be my next mani, prolly tomorrow if I can resist the call of Peppermint Patti. ^^


I caved and bought the expansion for FFXI : A Crystalline Prophecy. Not expecting super much, already hearing whinging in my LSes about how free Haubys for all. XD

Group Shot of the aforementioned polish haul; UD Gloss



Here's all of my incoming polishes, should hold me off for a dog's age. Forgot to grab China Glaze Gussied Up Green for the shot, just didn't see it. Oops. Click on the image to see a larger full sized picture instead of the condensed/shortened thumb. ^^


Need to make a different layout so as to not need such small thumb pics.


Watched Twilight last night, quite enjoyed it. Was surprised didn't think I would do all that much. Rather liked the Bella character as portrayed in the movie via the character in the books.


Feria root dye time tomorrow. Excitement. Hair dye! *boing*


The new Pocket Rocket Lip Glosses by Urban Decay. I'm not sure whether I am grossed out or like wahey over the packaging. Remember having novelty pens not unlike these when I was much younger. 8 different shades and subsequently different menfolk to choose from in a dressed and lesser so state. Good gimmick or bad?
