I can’t believe it’s been two weeks since I started this series of posts! Time has just flown, and now here we are with the last five shades. I’m a little sad that this series is coming to an end, but even though it’s been a lot of work, it’s been nice to look back on my blog and see so many recent posts! I really think I need to do this again in a couple of months. I am pretty sure that I can rustle up another 50 amazing and rare polishes from within the depths of my helmers. [...]

Since last week was such a rousing success (and also because my nails are still looking most craptacular), I’ve decided to dig down deep into the depths of my flickr for some more swatches for this weeks post. Hopefully I’ll have some new stuff for you next week, but knowing my luck I’ll lose my hand in a freak accident involving a wind up monkey and a meat cleaver. In the event of which, I leave my helmers to Emma. Urban Decay Big Bang, Versace 82145 Nubar Gold Leaf, Max Factor Midnight Aqua Bloom Mena, Essie Night Cap (over Zoya [...]

Okay, I lied. I can only really guarantee the swearing part. AND THE CAPS LOCK. This is the part where I would usually apologise for my absence and prattle on about how much of an asshole I am for neglecting my blog, but I decided that I’m not going to do that this time. I’m pretty sure all you mad cats won’t die without your daily dose of my crass ramblings. Also, I have a perfectly valid excuse this time. Work has been a GIANT DONKEY DICK. It’s to be expected. I’m subject to an internal audit every year at [...]

Can you believe I have made it through a whole week of posting?! Yay me! If I can bang out a review or two for BMovieChicks.com, this will have been my most productive week in the last few months! First of all, I finally got to putting together another dupe for you all, and I didn’t go easy – I’ve pulled out all the stops for this one… Prepare to have your mind blown out your patootie because ESSIE DOMINICA GREEN HAS DUPES, YO.

Well, maybe most of it. Firstly, I want to thank everyone who commented on my last entry, it really means a lot. Losing Kage so suddenly was quite a shock. Piled on to everthing else that has been going on, yeah… not good at all. So thanks for the kind words, the support and basically just listening. Those of you that have sent me facebook messages too, I will reply – just can’t do so from work. And thanks. So in regards to yesterday, I did have a *mostly* productive work day. I got a bunch of stuff done and [...]

Either I’m totally ignorant or its a case of Earth Day Marketing Fail, because I seriously didn’t have a clue. I don’t have any polish on right now, so I guess that’s kinda green? I had a bubble mailer arrive the other day with a casualty enclosed (Sally Hansen Wild Frost for those interested. Purple and irreplaceable. Me = Bummed.) and whilst I cleaned the other items of the blood of their fallen comrade, I stripped off my Illamasqua Muse mani in the process. Sadly, the desire to paint again has not surfaced. Partially because I’ve been going to bed [...]

L to R: Essie Dominica Green, Essie Barbuda Banana, Maybelline Shooting Stars, OPI La Boheme Essie – Dominica Green I decided that long ago Dominica Green was the perfect green and I searched high and low for something that could dupe it. I still haven’t found anything that has come even remotely close. A friend offered to sell hers to me for quite the bargain price and I jumped on it, and I don’t regret it for a second! I took so many photos of it that it probably could use its own post. In fact, I may have actually [...]

Calming down FAIL. *Runs in circles like an idiot* Why am I running? Why am I salivating? Why am I jibbering on? I’ll tell you. Many, many years ago, about three to be exact, I realised that my love of nail polish had grown beyond a passing fancy. I have an obsession with colour. My display room is filled with all sorts of bits and pieces, mainly toys from my childhood in all shades of the rainbow. When I was little I loved Care Bears, My Little Pony, Barbie, She-Ra… all these characters lived their days in brightly coloured worlds [...]
