Review of Naild'it Girls Gone Wild in Camo

As promised, here is Orly Buried Alive all blinged out :) I decided to use Naild'it Girls Gone Wild In Camo. I wanted something Fall oriented, and this works perfectly for the look I was going for.

There are so many fun colors in this polish. It's so unique that I'm going to use the description from Naild'it for this one...

Girls Gone Wild in Camo is a loaded glitter nail polish with browns, tans, blacks, greens, with hints of "hunter" orange, and everything girly pinks and reds... and last but not least gun metal (of course).

The color is unlike anything else I have. 

Sometimes people complain that indies can start to all look the same after a while, but this one stands on it's own for me.

How pretty is this?! I love the pinks so much more than I expected I would in this combo. I think it's perfect for a Fall look, even with the pinks added. The gorgeous green and orange glitters make it very Fall like for me.

Just so you guys know, my pics above only have one thin coat of Grand Central Station top coat. I got so excited, I took pics before I put on my final top coat of Seche Vite to smooth it all out (rookie mistake lol). I usually do one thin coat of Grand Central Station, one thin coat of Seche Vite, and one last THICK coat of Seche Vite. It works for me for getting a smooth glass finish with no 'shrinkage' that Seche Vite is famous for (when polish pulls away from the free edge and looks like the ends are worn). It's now 100% smooth on me with no shrinkage - yippee!!!

What do you guys think? Is this polish drool worthy for you guys - Yeah or Nay?

Naild'it is currently going through a transition to sales on Llarowe. Follow Naild'it on Facebook for sale dates and locations.

Orly Buried Alive

Today I have on probably one of my new favorite polishes EVER, Orly's Buried Alive. I didn't go out specifically looking for this polish, I just happened to get lucky and get this in the clearance section at Sally's Beauty Supply. It was on clearance for 2.99$ USD, and the sales associated used my Sally's Card and ended up discounting it further. It was under 2.00$ USD!!! This was the deal of a lifetime. I will never over look the clearance section at Sally's Beauty Supply again lol.

This is a beautiful polish. It has a gold shimmer in it that is to die for! Unfortunately, it does have it's down sides. It was really difficult to apply for me. The formula was a very very thick consistency.  I had to thin this polish a lot to get it to be workable for me. I used over 10 drops of thinner, which is a lot of thinner for one time use on a polish. Once I gave it a good shake after adding the thinner it was  a bit easier to apply, but still not perfect. The first coat is VERY streaky, but it does evens out in two coats. I was able to get most of the brush strokes to vanish. The picture above is one thin coat and one thicker coat to finish it off.

As much as this was difficult to apply, I am still in love with this polish and it is still in my new favorites list of all time. The color is that stunning! 

In most lighting you can see that stunning gold shimmer. This polish is like mind blowing!!! I can not rave about it enough, even with it's terrible formula. It's the perfect chocolate color. 

I usually cover polishes up right away with a glitter indie, but I'm leaving this one alone for at least until tomorrow. Have no fears, I will add a Indie Glitter to it so stay tuned for an update to this manicure lol...

Does you guys like this? I love brown polishes on my skin tone and I honestly can say this is the best brown I have found to date, do you guys agree?

* 1 set of Kiss Nail Dress Nail Decals in Jeweled Strips

*1 Bottle of Sally Hansen Gem Crush Bling-Tastic

(1 winner) and it is international.

I absolutely ADORE the Kiss Nail Dress Strips. I reviewed them way back, and I have to say they are the best strips I used to date. There was no lifting and they lasted forever it seemed. Here is my review on them in case you want to check it out HERE. This set has that same raised 3D effect on the jewels. It is so super pretty. I also added in a bottle of Gem Crush in a matching color if you want to do an accent nail with the strips, or just one Nail Dress accent nail (the set lasts a long time like that).

Super Fun and Blingy!

Bath & Body Works Halloween House

On my last visit to Bath & Body Works, Kelly and I eyed up this really cute Halloween House. He loves Halloween as much as I do. I waited to get a 20% off coupon to make it more affordable. As soon as I had my coupon, we were off to the store and this adorable candle holder came home with us!

This house is FABULOUS!!!! It's really large. The measurements are 10 1/4"h X 9 1/4"w. This retails for $49.50 USD.

This matches perfectly to the Frankenstein and Bride of Frankenstein candle holders that I got earlier last week, which you can see in this post HERE. 

 

 

Here is what the inside looks like once you lift the outer shell which is the house shell. This holds three mini 1.3 oz Candles. What is nice is you don't have to to get three of all the same scent, you can mix and match and create a personalized scent for yourself. 

The top part is open so the candles have a vent area.

Once it is lite up, it really is stunning. Look at the lovely pattern it casts on the wall!

It's SPOOOKTACULAR....sorry I couldn't help myself, I just had to add that lol!

Do you guys like this? Has anyone else picked one of these up?

Zoya Gilty Pleasures 18K Gold Top Coat Trio

The pre-order is now available for the Zoya Guilty Pleasures 18K Gold Flake Top Coat Limited Edition Trio Box.

So many great things about this box set. I see so much potential here.

 I don't have Raven (black), and have always wanted this. What a great plus for me that I don't already own it. I have heard many good things about Raven, and will be glad to get my hands on it finally. 

I also do not have Purity (white). I LOVE white nail polishes, and I can never have too many. We all know how terribly streaky and thick whites can be, so I always like trying new white polishes on the search for that perfect white. I'm anxious to give this one a try.

That takes us to Glitty, and my eyes just love what they see. I don't have a real gold top coat as of yet. You can not be a polish addict and not own at least one real gold polish now can you? I know that OPI is coming out with one soon, but at @$30.00 USD a bottle, I think not. That is a little steep for even this polish lover. For that same price, I can have 3 polishes from Zoya including the 18k top coat.  

I also love the black velvet box. It is so pretty  - I love little collectable items like this. I'm so impressed with this set. My ordering finger is all set to go :) 

Now there are only a limited amount available so grab yours before it's gone. I do not want to have regrets if I miss out on this one.

Are you guys liking this one? Is this a Yea or a Nay for you?
