Color Club Fashion Addict

 Color Club Fashion Addict. A cool holographic that comes to life in the sun. It is a pale lilac, with awesome holographic shimmer. This is one of the polishes I got from Krissi in my awesome swap! You can see the rainbows in this polish, which is why I love it so much. This is one of the 3 linear holographic polishes I own.

My camera can't even do this amazing polish justice.

Awesome Haul!

Yesterday was an AWESOME day of polish for me. I got the FingerPaint Flakies, a few Kleancolor Chunky Holos and my awesome nail mail that I posted earlier was waiting for me when I got home!

I have been so excited to get these FingerPaint Flakies ever since I saw them on PAA.  They are going to be released in January, but the amazing ladies at my Sally's let me get them early.  It was actually a process to getting them though, They didn't have them at my local store, so the awesome Sally's girl went to another one and signed them out for me and let me buy them. How awesome is that?!

The names are Flashy, Flecked, Motley, Asylum and Twisted.

Flashy is the orange/gold/green flakie (similar to Essie Shine of the Times, Nubar 2010, and Inglot 202)
Flecked is a blue/green flakie with hints of teal. (similar to Inglot 203)
Motley is a deep blue flakie. (similar to Inglot 204)
Asylum has orange/gold/green and deep blue flakies. (I think a dupe may be Deborah Lippman Edge of Glory?)
Twisted has amazing rainbow flakies. (it has been compared to Unicorn Puke and is similar to Ludrana Flocado Arcos-Iris.)

These babies come to life over black!! I absolutely love these.  In the photo they don't look different but they definitely are. I would say though, if you already have 2010 or Essie Shine of the Times, You don't necessarily need Flashy. I just wanted it because I love my SOTT so much I wanted a backup.

They retail for $4.99 with a Sally's card, $5.49 without.  I had a $10 off $20 coupon so I got all 5 of these babies for $16!

Up next I went to a local store calld $1 Fashion.(sounds kinda sketchy right?) just to see what they had, because sometimes stores like this have little hidden jems. I was so surprised when I found these Kleancolors in their stock! They had two small displays of Kleancolors, and Of them 4 were Chunky Holos. I am excited to try these out, although they STINK TO HIGH HEAVEN.  But for awesome nails, I think Im willing to sacrifice.

These are the 4 polishes I got, Chunky Holo Fuchsia, Chunky Holo Purple, Chunky Holo Candy, and Chunky Holo Clover. They were only $1.49 each, which is not bad.  I know there is one place that sells Kleancolor for .99 cents, but they didn't have any chunky holos when I looked.

These four polishes have holographic glitter that shifts color at different angles.

I have to make sure I put on a top coat on because the smell lingers for a while after you put it on.

Have you gotten any recent awesome hauls?

My first Swap Mail!!

This is my first every swap mail!  My first ever swap was with Krissi who I met on PAA!(here is her blog.)  When I posted on PAA that I wanted more holographic polish, Krissi said that she had an extra Revvvolution that she would swap me, so I took her up on her offer! I sent her NYX Girls Polishes, and she sent me Revvvolution and Fashion Addict in return, and a few extra goodies!(even my first Funky Fingers polish!!!)

How awesome is this!!

I <3 everything from my first swap, and I am so excited to have my fist CC holos, and Funky Fingers polish too! I love everything!

Swatches to come. :)

Phantom of the Opera Nails!

Ok, so ALL of my friends know that Phantom of the Opera is my ALL TIME favorite movie. (even my sweet 16 was phantom themed, and my puppy is named Raoul.) And this past summer my awesome boyfriend took me to see it on Broadway! :)

Today I have Phantom of the Opera nails. I thought they were needed since I got my Konad M73 yesterday! I have been dreaming about this manicure ever since I first saw the plate, and it doesn't disappoint. :)

I used Sinful Colors Snow Me White as the base.
Wet N Wild Black Creme as the music stamp and the black accent for the mask.
LA Colors Red Striper for the red rose.
Color Club Perfect Mol-Ten as the stem and leaves of the rose.

I absolutely love this. :) I Don't want to take it off!
