Seriously I hate getting pity looks from people when they find out I have no plans on the 14th. I am fine, I love my life and wouldn't change anything about it, so there you go haters! Sorry, I just had to get that out there. Here are a couple Valentine related NOTDS.<br />

I figured I would never get my nails on this so I gave up and bought You're an Angel by NOPI (Nicole by OPI) thinking they were close enough. But alas the lemming would not die so I began stalking it again and actually got it for way under what I had seen the previous bottles sell for. So yeah long story short You're an Angel is not a dupe like I previously thought, they are fairly different.<br />

Lately I have been thinking thinking about my poor neglected blog and how I needed to start working on it again.Well imagine my suprise when I received an email from Angelique over at <a href="http://polishwasteland.blogspot.com/">Polish Wasteland</a> nominating me for a Stylish Blogger Award. So I would like to thank Angelique for nominating me and for giving me the kick I needed to start up again. Ok so on with it:<br />
<br />
Seven Random Things About Myself <br />
<br />
1. I love disney movies, my favorite is Aladdin. I am not ashamed to admit that he was probably my first crush. <br />
<br />
2. If I could live anywhere I would want to live in Boston, I don't know what it is about the city but I have always wanted to live there. Although the Texas girl in me probably couldn't handle the cold.<br />
<br />
3. I am left handed and it's a constant struggle, I am always doing things backwards. <br />
<br />
4. I work at a daycare and love my 18 babies but I am not sure I want one of my own.<br />
<br />
5. I love mexican food! I could eat it everyday<br />
<br />
6. While on the topic of food, I can't drink or really even smell milk it makes me nauseous<br />
<br />
7. I am beginning to develop a slight candle obsession. <br />
<br />
Alright so since I have been out of it for so long I don't really think I can come up with 15 bloggers, so I have decided to do 4 just cuz' I like the number<br />
1. <a href="http://www.polishfreshie.blogspot.com/">Polish Freshie</a><br />
2.<a href="http://bluetapeandnails.blogspot.com/">Blue Tape and Nail Tips</a><br />
3.<a href="http://kissmyacetone.blogspot.com/">Kiss My Acetone </a><br />
4.<a href="http://lilgreenheart.blogspot.com/">.little green heart.</a><br />
<br />
So if anyone out there is still paying attention to me I promise to be back soon!!!PinkCathttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04608830853758589103noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6993481465545358048.post-65729492679852783192010-02-08T13:38:00.000-08:002010-02-08T13:38:53.552-08:00Neutral ColorsHello lovely fellow nail polish-ers!! Today I bring a really different look especially for me. So the context of this out of character mani is that I started a new job today and I didn't want to wear a really bright or funky color. I don't really own any neutral colors, actually that's a lie I have a ton of gray colors but I wanted something a little more natural looking. <br />
A couple of the gals over on MUA were talking about OPI's Tickle my France-y being a pretty neutral, so I went out and it picked it up. When I first did my nails I was not liking the color but the longer I wear it the more I like it. Its a really pretty pink/brown muted color very subtle. <br />

So it got me thinking that maybe I have been unfair to all those neutral shades, perhaps they deserve a second glance before I reach over them to grab a purple or green nail polish. Any recs for neutral polishes?<br />
*Also I saw someone at my new job wearing a bright pink sparkly nail polish, so I think I will be able to wear pretty much any color I want.PinkCathttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04608830853758589103noreply@blogger.com6tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6993481465545358048.post-72684957914504438832010-02-03T14:31:00.000-08:002010-02-08T13:39:53.266-08:00Pick Me Up<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div>I am a little down in the dumps today :( The weather here is cold, gray, and rainy, and my mood is just generally no bueno.

Yesterday I went to Ulta and took advantage of the buy two get one free deal on OPI polishes. I picked up Ink, Tickle my France-y, and Parlez Vous OPI. I also got one of the new spring colors from Essie Van D'Go (more on that later). <br />
<br />
Late last night I decided to redo my mani with Parlez Vous OPI, its a really nice purple gray color, more purple that Sephora by OPI's Metro Chic. Anyway due to my tired-ness and impatience I went to bed soon after finishing my mani. I woke up this morning with WRINKLED nails! I have to say it's a good thing I didn't have any plans until this afternoon because I hate leaving my house with a ruined mani. <br />
<br />
It's is honestly a pet peeve of mine, I hate chipped polish or sloppy tips. One of my very best friends used to only do her nails when we would go out dancing and of course she would do them like five minutes before we left. Some of her fingers looked like she had dipped them in the nail polish, others were streaky. It would annoy me just to see them.<br />
<br />
I don't know about you my fellow nail polish-ers but things like that bother me. It is my belief that if you can't take the time to do them properly don't do them at all and when you nails are chipped and there is seriously only a speck of nail polish left on your nail please take it off!! Ok that's it just needed to get that out, I am off to redo my nails. <br />
<br />

So since I was just sitting around today and it was a beautiful sunny day perfect for swatching I decided to try them out.<br />
<br />
So here's what I got:<br />

L-R: Indigo Polish, Purple Polish, Cosmic Polish, Nude Polish, Lilac Polish <br />
<br />
Purple Polish (for electric nails) a really deep purple. I was expecting it to be neon for some reason but it is not. The color purple is definitely a pinkinsh purple, like maybe a rasberry color. I really like the color but the application was pretty tricky. The nail polish was really goopy and made a mess while I was putting it on. I think a couple drops of nail polish thinner would make it perfect though. <br />

</div><div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;">Nude Polish (for perfect nails). Let me say first I am not a huge fan of the whole mannequin hands trend and nude colors really just aren't my thing. I love this one, which really suprised me. The polish is a pink/peach color and just really pretty. Unlike the purple and lilac polish I had no issues with this one and I two coats was perfect. <br />

The last two colors in my set were the ones I was least excited about don't get me wrong I love dark polish especially blue. I have tons of dark blue and black polishes which is why these didn't excite me, they looked pretty ordinary. Well I was totally wrong these the indigo and cosmic polish were totally awesome. <br />
<br />
Indigo Polish, wow this one was just awesome. Its a dark navy blue with blue and green and purple shimmer in it. In the bottle its just kinda eh but on the nail awesome!! The picture does not do the polish justice. <br />

Overall I really like these. The packaging is totally cute. The bottle are small (.30 fl.oz) which is about double the size of an Essie mini. The colors are all pretty awesome. Even though I had trouble with some of the polishes consistency a few drops of nail polish thinner cleared that right up. You can get these from <a href="http://eyeko.com/">Eyeko Beauty </a>, they are $5 each. The best part is that worldwide shipping is FREE. I love free shipping!!<br />

So the internet is all fixed ,even though it took some arguing with the tech. because according to them nothing was wrong with the equipment. Yeah the lights on the router are just blinking on and off and turning red and yellow and the box is turning on and off to amuse me! So one new router and lots of new nail polish later I have to catch up a little bit <br />
<br />
So Today I will begin with my Mom's mani from a couple days ago. <br />

My Mom is strictly not a nail gal so I was suprised she let me use such in her words "off colors" and a funky design. I used China Glaze LOL & 2030 (Stamping Color). The design is from Konad image plate M 65. <br />
<br />
** Coming Soon!! wowsocool.com is letting you order the new image plates already, I don't know when you would get them because it still says coming soon under the images!<br />

I used China Glaze's Strawberry Fields and 2030 for the stamping. I can't think of what plate it is off the top of my head.

I layered Absolutely Alice over a coat of Sephora by OPI Opening Night. Sephora descirbes opening night as a midnight navy, I think the swatch on the website is a little misleading though. It looks like it has glitter or shimmer and I don't see any of that in real life. It's still a pretty color though like a dark royal blue.<br />
<br />
Hopefully I will get my Transdesign order Tues. or Wed. because I can't wait to try China Glaze's Up and Away Collection!!!<br />

I used Sally Hansen Blue Me Away! as the base ( I think this color would fit in with China Glaze's Up and Away Collection) and Color Club Revvolution to do the stamping. I used Konad plate m64 for the design. <br />
<br />
I just ordered a few more Konad plates and I am anxiously waiting for them to arrive!PinkCathttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04608830853758589103noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6993481465545358048.post-8305259851235415762010-01-14T10:25:00.000-08:002010-01-14T10:28:02.736-08:00NOTD Peacock Feathers and BowsToday's Nails! <br />

</div>I used Nubar Peacock Feathers as the base and China Glaze Millennium for the stamp. I used Konad plates m59 (polka dot bow) and m3 (little bow on pinky). I wish the sun was out cause Peacock Feathers looks seriously cool in sunlight. <br />

Yesterday I went to Trade Secret and checked out the Alice in Wonderland collection and I have to admit I was a little disappointed. After seeing everyone's swatches I decided I was going to get Absolutely Alice and MaAH. The two reds are pretty but I am not really a red gal. Anyway I was a little disappointed by MaAH, it didn't look that pretty in the bottle, it looked mostly like just silver glitter. I only ended up buying Absolutely Alice, which is really gorgeous. Someone let me know if maybe the bottle of MaAH is deceiving and it really is amazing, so I can run back and get it!PinkCathttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04608830853758589103noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6993481465545358048.post-26060643744277003292010-01-13T09:21:00.001-08:002010-01-13T10:29:46.362-08:00Rainy Days and Nail FailSince it's raining out, today has become Nail Experiment Day!! I gotta say that I think only one of these really came out cute, so maybe more like Nail Fail Day! <br />
<br />
Anyway I first attempted a half moon manicure. It looked totally cute and simple. After checking out a couple videos on youtube I became convinced it would be a piece of cake. <br />
<br />

</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">I used Color Club Revvolution and China Glaze LOL<br />

</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">How it Should Have Looked (From Marie Claire Magazine)<br />
</div><br />
Yeah idk I used french tip guides on the base and I guess I should have put them higher or angled or something, cause it just looks like I didn't polish all the way down and there is no moon action going on. <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U-V5o_fYaEs">PlasmaSpeedo</a> on youtube used Hole Reinforcements as the guide so maybe that would help get a more rounded moon and not a straight line like I did. <br />
<br />
I love animal prints, I would say that my m57 Konad plate gets used the most (its the one that has a zebra and leopard print full nail designs) So I figured it couldn't be that hard to recreate these looks on my own. Wrong. <br />
<br />

</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Does that Look Zebra? Ummmm, NO!<br />
</div><br />
I don't even know it just looks crazy. My brother said that they looked like Bride of Frankenstein nails, why I don't know. I used Zoya Harley and Stripe Rite in Black. The Stripe Right brush was horrible it looked like an animal had chewed on it so I am partly blaming it for my fail. <br />
<br />
Next up Leopard Print. <br />

I think this is the only one that came out cute. It was also the design I thought was going to be the hardest leave it to me to fail on the easier ones and succeed on this one. <br />
<br />
So today I reminded myself of why I love to Konad! <br />

<br />
<br />
I was feeling green but could not make up my mind. So first I tried Rescue Beauty Lounge's Recycle, which is awesome and looked great in one coat but I wasn't sure it was the right color for today. <br />

I felt a little like a traitor for taking off my burnt orange before the game. Then I thought green is for good luck. So I am wearing green to bring my team good luck. So yeah traitor feelings no more (I like lying to myself it makes me feel better).PinkCathttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04608830853758589103noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6993481465545358048.post-90783968680602282362010-01-06T17:49:00.000-08:002010-01-06T17:49:51.930-08:00Beautiful Blogger Award!I was tagged by Brooke over at <a href="http://caracita.blogspot.com/">Babbling Brooke </a>for a beautiful blogger award.

So I meant to take pictures outside yesterday but I didn't get to and today is really overcast. I mean come on I live in San Antonio, we have sunshine like probably 350 days of the year, well damn that's what I get for procrastinating. Also it's freezing here, well at least to my South Texas mind it's freezing. Anyway I took pics outside even if it was gross and cold. <br />

I am actually pretty impressed by this nail polish, two coats covered my nail really well considering it's really just a lot of glitter suspended in clear nail polish I think that's pretty impressive. A little part of me is dreading having to take this off though cause glitter polish is sparkly and amazing but a pain in the ass to remove. Anyone have any tips for glitter removal?

Actually this began a little before New Year's. As I was getting ready for a Christmas party I could not find the blush I wanted to use. So I spent about 10 frustrating minutes looking for my blush, thinking I had thrown it away by accident. After going through my piles of junk about 4 times I realized it had been in front of my face the whole time. After this incident I vowed to become more organized. Here I was wasting precious getting ready time and not using cosmetics because I did not see them in my pile of crap. So began my organizing.<br />
<br />
Since moving back home I have already redecorated my room and incorporated more shelves and drawers for all my clothes but my makeup was just kinda chillin' in various storage boxes and bags, it was not good. So I scoured youtube looking for cute and cheap ways to store my makeup and got tons of ideas. The awesomeness of youtube saved me. So a couple days of sorting and cleaning and now all my makeup is nicely organized.<br />

I also bought a nail polish rack off ebay to display all my lovelies. Apparently though I can't count or misjudged the size of my collection cause they didn't all fit :(. So the others had to go back in the drawer until I can purchase another one. <br />

I purchased this nail polish at Walmart. They had a display with about maybe 7 or 8 colors that are exclusive to Walmart. I also bought another polish from this collection called Gone Wishin', its a really cool purple, pink and blue glitter. I tried photgraphing the bottle but the colors weren't showing up, when I do a mani with it I will post the pics. <br />
<div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;"><br />
</div><div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;">So I went to ULTA this past weekend to pick up some makeup and I was looking around the nail polish and there on a display for Nicole by OPI is an exact copy of Jade in the Shade, it was called Respect the World.<br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhXYIiY40I-HNHGm1GfXniWhzTlKVMLQhMWOxj9md3sSIuXDUPmiWnHwTiB1yUKlgnGMt8SU_xnJwn1Xms9kjVj01C9eYrRhWsMTP25RRxf_N93rBh-ibGkdn-_VlygncTd3e9Y8W2uYxg/s1600-h/Respect+the+World.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" ps="true" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhXYIiY40I-HNHGm1GfXniWhzTlKVMLQhMWOxj9md3sSIuXDUPmiWnHwTiB1yUKlgnGMt8SU_xnJwn1Xms9kjVj01C9eYrRhWsMTP25RRxf_N93rBh-ibGkdn-_VlygncTd3e9Y8W2uYxg/s200/Respect+the+World.jpg" /></a><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">So yeah this polish look identical to the one I bought. So if you can't find this at Walmart you could try ULTA, or even an online retailer, this is on Amazon for $8.00. So yeah I guess its not exclusive, bunch of liars. <br />
</div><div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;"><br />
</div><div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;">On a totally unrelated nail polish note, my Dad gave me a gift set from Lush for Christmas and now I am hooked. I had never heard of Lush before but I gotta say its amazing. They make fresh handmade products. I got a yummy yummy shower wash, a fairytale sugar scrub and a comforter buble bar. I loved all of the products, they smell amazing and the smell really lasts. If you are interested check out lush.com. Also my gift came in the most adorable packaging!<br />

Anyway I want to try out Lush's shampoo and conditioner bars but I am a little skeptical, so maybe someone who has tried them can let me know how they worked out. That's all for now, I will be posting pics of my very special NOTW later!!<br />

Seriously I have cherries on everything. My absolute favorite cherry item, is the blanket my grandma made me. It's totally adorable. When I go on vacation it is the first thing I pack. When I came home from college one Christmas I left it in my dorm and I was soo sad :( Pics of my awesome blanket, one side is just a bunch of cherries and the other is cherries and polka dot bows. <br />

</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">(Ignore the mess, I was organizing)<br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">I used e.l.f's pearl for the base ( I know I said I wouldn't use that brand anymore and now I definitely won't, I had the most difficult time with the application), the stem and leaf are China Glaze's Metallic Muse, and the Cherry is Maybelline's Robust Red. <br />

</div><div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;">I love them! I made this design using "fauxnad" plates. I bought these plates off ebay, they are knockoffs of the konad system. I bought them from ebay user ebeautyhouse. The set of six was $8.49 with free shipping. It did take about three weeks for me to receive them, they are shipped from Hong Kong, so maybe that's why. <br />
</div><div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;">I didn't have any problems using the plates with my Konad stamper, it worked just as well as the konad plates. The plates are in the shape of octagons so the corners are a little sharp, so be careful. Overall it's a pretty good price for that many images. Although I am not that crazy about all the images on the plates (I bought the set for Hello Kitty and the cherries). There are a lot of flowers and some butterflies and that really isn't my thing. I will probably try those designs on my mom, she loves that stuff. Also if anyone sees anything with cherries, let me know!!<br />

Mine was awesome, my amazing family has finally accepted my beauty obsession and I got lots of new makeup and nail polishes to play with. <br />
</div><br />
So I got an early Christmas present from Fedex, my Rescue Beauty Lounge Polishes got here the morning of Christmas Eve. I got Recycle and Scrangie. <br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiW9wujmDlnnvNqlLp3Poasli392ydCwGUtC-HcDUI-eDAYhl9ax8AP_kvITqT2L2s-f-SKUXNGk2E8eBQQDPXKt9VJaCT0cRlav1XqHODNhw34f_KGebekVktkHAvyD0cIgZ7edOrqn9Y/s1600-h/Nail+Polish+Haul+003.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" ps="true" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiW9wujmDlnnvNqlLp3Poasli392ydCwGUtC-HcDUI-eDAYhl9ax8AP_kvITqT2L2s-f-SKUXNGk2E8eBQQDPXKt9VJaCT0cRlav1XqHODNhw34f_KGebekVktkHAvyD0cIgZ7edOrqn9Y/s320/Nail+Polish+Haul+003.JPG" /></a><br />
</div><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><br />
Recyle looks like the perfect green creme. I have Zoya's Envy and I was disappointed because it's too dark and it comes across as being black. Recycle looks a lot greener so hopefully that will eliminate the black/green issue. <br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjP-xVbzaa0iHYDYc9MusDMUYHrOSrqPGzueY9aSlK9w0XKT0HHWT34QLWQ-z6j7VW52RfyhX5vgfziWuqpsa4kmPmroDc20Hmb_zw8R9jGe6pmytjlF3Wvct384NYHwCYr1WtbCRA2hlw/s1600-h/More+Polish+001.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" ps="true" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjP-xVbzaa0iHYDYc9MusDMUYHrOSrqPGzueY9aSlK9w0XKT0HHWT34QLWQ-z6j7VW52RfyhX5vgfziWuqpsa4kmPmroDc20Hmb_zw8R9jGe6pmytjlF3Wvct384NYHwCYr1WtbCRA2hlw/s320/More+Polish+001.JPG" /></a><br />
</div><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><br />
Scrangie is an amazing Purple/Blue. I really don't think the picture does it any justice. Oops the bottle I am holding is not Scrangie, that's just a FrakenglitterPolish, My nails are painted Scrangie though. <br />
<br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><br />
My little brother gave me three polishes from China Glaze. I got Metallic Muse, Emerald Sparkle and Lubu Heels. They are all extremely gorgeous and I think Metallic Muse would be awesome to Konad with. <br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgcljSd7cbiykjpLVJyfODEsbBcebFv99KpFjFAPKHFtzGv2xJ31in6khHw2otiTVKdVmbW4ZeZACmycyJW9sN7x7BRTz6RKuom3BsKjCoGWHTG2T3xAzzWvMQxtum-sclm5VEdF3VS-uQ/s1600-h/Nail+Polish+Haul+001.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" ps="true" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgcljSd7cbiykjpLVJyfODEsbBcebFv99KpFjFAPKHFtzGv2xJ31in6khHw2otiTVKdVmbW4ZeZACmycyJW9sN7x7BRTz6RKuom3BsKjCoGWHTG2T3xAzzWvMQxtum-sclm5VEdF3VS-uQ/s320/Nail+Polish+Haul+001.JPG" /></a><br />
</div><br />
I also got three Nubar Polishes. Emerald ( I guess they noticed I wear a lot of green polish), Peacock Feathers and Orange Glitter. Peacock Feathers is amazing, its like a purple/green/blue duo chrome ( maybe triple chrome). <br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />

</div><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">I am really excited about the orange glitter though, it is the perfect shade of burnt orange, I had been looking for this color for a long time. Now I can totally rock a Longhorn manicure on Jan 7th when they play for the national title I can't wait<br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgmgi_jlkQShTMto8OM5iBToKyyoi7RtCOEeeqEfunzNcG1a-5BjUvOmQfCKjA64dgTYivZ8dkhU0NFOGq_VXcdhOqLZAaRTr5vjEgTttnt99bkMkX5e7bABvCkFT86uWYzJGZWg6eLdOg/s1600-h/More+Polish+003.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" ps="true" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgmgi_jlkQShTMto8OM5iBToKyyoi7RtCOEeeqEfunzNcG1a-5BjUvOmQfCKjA64dgTYivZ8dkhU0NFOGq_VXcdhOqLZAaRTr5vjEgTttnt99bkMkX5e7bABvCkFT86uWYzJGZWg6eLdOg/s400/More+Polish+003.JPG" /></a><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">In my excited-ness I blurred the pic, oops. <br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">So I am working on a Sparkly Confetti manicure for New Year's Eve, I will post pics and a Tutorial if I can get it to look the way I want. My room already looks like New Year's hit, there is glitter and foil confetti all over the place. <br />

</div>I used E.L.F.'s Royal Purple. It's this really pretty jewel-toned purple. It really does look gorgeous in the bottle. Unfortunately it took four coats to achieve the bottle look on my nails and it was still streaky. So I took my CND effects in Sapphire Sparkle and layered on two coats. The effects gave the nail polish a really cool blue/purple duochrome effect. I don't think I would purchase another e.l.f. polish just because of the issues I had with this one but I am glad I only paid a dollar for it. <br />
