Sinful Colors Almost Famous Collection

Good Afternoon!!!

Today I have some nail polish that I purchased a while ago that I had trouble swatching. I'm into glitters more than any other type of finish but these were quite annoying to swatch.
To make these opaque you'd have to do about 2-4 coats each (with the exception of one) and thats a LOT of work.
Too much work for someone who has little amount of patience.

Any-who, I have a TON of pictures for you guys to see these. There's a couple that are really pretty but rest are ok. No smell/drying complaints.

Few notes:
I got couple at Rite Aid but I got most at Walgreens. Walgreens the collection is called Almost Famous. The display stand at Rite Aid are the same shades but shows that this collection is called Paparazzi collection.  I recommend checking both locations if you want these. 
These are each $1.99 and contain 0.5 fl oz. 
Now swatches:

Water Marble Nails 2

I have another water marble mani that somewhat came out nice.

I used WNW's Black Creme and Sinful Colors newest shade in Sugar Rush.
(You can see that collection HERE)

I like this manis color combo!

As with last post if you have a water marble you'd like to share, link it down below!


Water Marble Nails

Hello!!


Couple days ago I spent hours trying to play
with some water marbling.

This picture may
be like the 20th time I tried.
It is the hardest thing nail related I have done.
Also requires lots of patience because sometimes
you cannot get the design down. I hope you guys try
water marbling sometime, although it is challenging, it is fun!

If you have done water marbling and have a blogpost about it, link that post below!!

Hard Candy Nail Polish

This is another polish I got from my recent Hard Candy mini haul at Walmart.


This is Fun N' Festive. I loved this as soon as I saw this. I liked that it is not just glitter and has tinted base, because  I really didn't want to sit down for half an hour trying to make this completely opaque. This became opaque in 2 coats and it is so pretty. It was a little clumpy but nothing I couldn't work with. This polish looks like it has 4 different types of glitter. A super fine green glitter, a small hex orange glitter, a bigger sized orange hex glitter and chunky silver hexed glitter. Really pretty and dries fast.

As usual: 
.26 fl oz of product 
Available at Walmart for $3.97
www.HardCandy.com is the website!





Click Below to see the other 2 shades I purchased!

Hard Candy Nail Polish

No flash.
This is Cocoa Smores.
 I used 2 coats for this. Its a taupe-y tinted polish with silver/white and black small hex glitter.

Not much to say about this. It's pretty and unique. This was $3.97 at Walmart with .26 fl oz worth of product.

Hard Candy Nail Polish

(with flash)
Hello!!
This new polish is called Jubilee.
I got this recently from Walmart other day with 2 other colors which should be posted already (if not soon). I LOVE this color, I mentioned on the haul pic that this is one of the ugliest/strange polish combos I have ever seen. It is true. It is kind of ugly but I love this so much. Its unusually strange and that is probably why I love it so much.

This polish reminds me of a food. Probably what you would find in a smoothie. Like the orange bar glitter reminds of carrot shreds and the find black glitter reminds me of kiwi seeds, the green base reminds me of a  spinach smoothie. (LOL)

Cocoa Smore, Fun n' Festive, Jubilee
Hello ladies and maybe gents!

Other day I got some new polishes from the Hard Candy Nail polish line for 2013!!

The colors are AMAZING! There are 47 shades if I'm correct.
I was somewhat into greens when I grabbed these. I really wanted the shade on the right called Jubilee.
It is the most ugliest/strange combo of glitter I have ever seen and that is why I LOVE it so much!!! I have these already swatched and am gonna be working and editing these today to have posted sometime later afternoon. (I'm still procrastinating on that Sinful Colors collection.)

Wet N Wild Magnetic Nail Polish

One of the first polishes I tried out from my recent haul was these Magnetic polishes from WNW.

This one is called Don't Break The Circuit.

These have been out for a while now and I never got my hands on them as I believe they were over $5 and I'd rather spend $5 an indie or special brand. (Does that make sense. LOL)

I found this on clearance at my Walgreens for $1.25 and I am so happy  I got this. I had another WNW Magnetic polish in the black shade but the magnetic strips are no where no as vibrant as this one. I recommend using a bottom coat on this one as it stains.  If you see this I  Recommend picking it up!!

Black Heart Nail Polish

Today I also have the last Black Heart Nail polish I got 
recently from Hot Topic on a Buy 2 get 1 Free sale. 
These retail for $5 a piece. 
I have in my previous post that Black Heart polishes do contain 
some kind of chemical in them which the company does nothing to hide.
I really like this polish. It is my favorite. I love the black with the chunky/fine silver glitter.
I am pretty sure though, I have this polish in another brand. 
When I first applied this I did get the purple middle polish in it, but the black 
really overpowered it. 
Picture below is in 2 coats.
I didn't really see a name on this polish all the little sticker says is 
HOLO LV Stick.

Jesse's Girl

Today I have a Jesse's Girl polish I got a while ago from Rite Aid on sale. I think
it was under a buck. (.74 cents on clearance) I believe. 
This is called Glee. 
This is my first nail polish from Jesse's Girl and I've always seen this color
in their stand at Rite Aid and have always walked past it.
This is the color that always caught my eye and eventually
I found it on clearance at my store. 
I have never seen such a pretty blue polish before!!
It a blue polish with what looks like green/gold flecks. 
The site says blue-green glitter, but looks like flecks to me. 
Retail price for these are $3.99. 
The bottle contains .35 fl oz. 
(Regular sized polish is around .50 fl oz)

Left: Flash- Catches the blue base of this polish
Right: Without Flash- This picture looks green but it does a very good job at capturing the green/gold flecks in this polish.
