Here are some picks from OPI’s Spring 2014 Brazil collection. The collection is a mix of very bright colours and then a slew of purples. The purples are easy to wear and those are the colours that I tried! Here are the colours and their descriptions: Next Stop…The Bikini Zone This amethyst-toned pewter suits me […]

OPI Gwen Stefani Collection
After testing out a couple of streaky messy polishes this season, it was really nice to return to OPI’s failsafe formula used, in this case, in the Gwen Stefani collection. The set of six colours is super pigmented, bright, and a nice transition from fall/holiday to spring. There are two glossy super pigmented cremes (my […]
Quo Nail Polish in Blush – Swatch and Review
Pigmented, creamy, opaque, and still a light spring colour. This nail polish, called Blush, from Quo’s Spring 2014 collection is a nice and easy to use light shade that’s perfect for spring. I like my nail polish colours creamy and completely opaque and this polish delivers on both counts. I will say that the brush […]
Swatch and Review: Love.Angel.Music.Baby from OPI Gwen Stefani Collection
I couldn’t hep but reach for this golden shade from OPI’s collection with Gwen Stefani. Gold is just so… easy to wear. Love.Angel.Music.Baby is a new finish from OPI… it’s a semi-matte satin. It goes on super smooth and dries to a satin finish. Not as textured as the Sand finish, but still different from […]
I Gave Myself a Caviar Manicure
…using Dior’s Jewel Manicure Duo which is out as part of their Golden Winter 2013 collection. The instructions are simple: apply gold nail polish included in the kit, and after applying the second coat immediately tap the clear mini beads directly on to the nail letting excess fall into tray provided. Let dry. I did […]
Swatch: Dior Frimas polish from the Golden Winter Collection
Here’s my swatch of the most amazing nail polish from the Dior Golden Winter collection: Frimas. Frimas is a beige pink with gold shimmer in it. It is an understated colour, more than a natural nude, and perfect for every occasion. Two coats gave me opaque coverage. This is perfect if you like a groomed […]

Essie Encrusted Treasures Collection 2013
Nail art may be a thing of the past (well, almost) but taking its place is polish finishes that are anything but ordinary. Essie may be the last to the finish line in coming out with their own uniquely finished polish, but they’ve definitely taken the category to the next level with their Encrusted Treasures […]
Seven Day Nail Polish: CND Vinylux Review and Swatches
I first mentioned Vinylux by Creative Nail Design back in June… and now it’s finally here. The system uses the solar light that we encounter every day to harden the Vinylux top coat you apply on top of a Vinylux nail polish. The entire system is meant to last on your nails for up to […]
Essie Winter 2013 Collection
This year, you can forget about wearing those blacks, deep purples, and deep blues. The winter collections do have strong colours, but they’re a step away from the deep dark shades that we’ve seen so much of in previous years. Essie’s Winter 2013 collection is a mix of classic bordeaux shades, blues, and purples. The […]
