Gettin' Smitten

Recently, Noelie of Noelie's Nails started her own line of polishes, Smitten Polish, and my are they lovely! Have a look at the two I picked up, Bluebird and Hydrangea.

Bits of Ocean

I've been fairly obsessed with color-shifting polishes, especially blue with pink shimmer, and so I give you Models Own Indian Ocean, a breathtaking duochrome.

Behold! The Mysterious and Captivating: Lynnderella

Lynnderella Attitude Adjust-Mint & Gotta Love Brains
Aren't they just amazing? These were the first two Lynnderellas I decided I simply couldn't live without, although now the list has grown!

Since this is a layering polish I started with a nice minty green, Essence's I Like from last year's spring collection.


This polish really is quite beautiful on it's own-- see that blue shimmer? I just wish it were a bit more noticeable. Also I believe this is quite similar to Sonia Kashuk's Fairy Princess, but with a smoother texture.


And today I present to you the lovely, the magnificent, Attitude Adjust-Mint!


Watch her sparkle and shine as she glides effortlessly, er... on my fingertips! Yes.


Seriously. I love, love, that beautiful spring green glitter, and the little flecks of iridescence are so magical!


Next I tried it over a touch darker/blue-r hue, Mint Macaroon from NYC.

The result is only a shade or two different, but I think this combination is gorgeous as well. Also since the base of AAM is so pale & milky, it might not look very good over a color that's too dark.



The colors remind me of one of my new favorite obssesions, Swarovski chrysolite opal crystals. Swooon.


Hope you enjoyed the insane picture spam! I'll have Gotta Love Brains up soon. ♥
