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. [...]

Can you believe that I’ve made it through a WHOLE WEEK of blogging? Could I really be turning over a new leaf here? Only time will tell! I’d like to thank all you cool cats for such a positive response to my motivational post yesterday. It really means a lot that so many of you understood how I’m feeling and thanked me for writing it. On to the swatches! I just want to note that these swatches are from about six months ago – I decided to fish back through my flickr rather than swatch new stuff on my super [...]

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 [...]

Well guys we’ve made it through a whole week of Streetwear swatches and to finish things up I’ve picked out a couple more of my glitterbomb faves! Streetwear glitters are usually the most sought after and it’s not hard to see why! Revlon Streetwear Time Machine & Confetti Time Machine is a pale green glitter, pretty unique and super bright and sparkly. This is one the newer ones that has made its way into my posession and I just adore it. It’s pale and delicate with a tonne of sparkle, yet it’s still green! Swatch is three coats, no base! [...]

I was not really sure what to pick out and swatch for this post, so I just closed my eyes, grabbed four from the drawer and here we are! My current Streetwear collection count is 154, so to have grabbed four completely different colours is a pretty mean feat! I think the thing I like best about the Streetwear line is the amount of different finishes & colours that were produced. My Reference Guide has over 200 now, with another 30 or so that I don’t have pictures of yet. And who knows how many others are still out there [...]

Wow, I almost didn’t scrape this one in on time! I had planned to finish my swatches last night but unexpected visitors thwarted those plans. But it’s still the 7th here (and it’s probably only just the 7th in the US!), so I guess I can still get away with todays entry, even if it is a little late. C’mon, as if it wasn’t dead obvious that I was going to dedicate one of these posts this week to Streetwear greens! I love the fact that this line wasn’t afraid to make a whole bunch of different greens – I [...]

I was going to save this post until the end of the week, but as I knew some of these would require sun swatches and I am at work all week, I got these done on Sunday, so therefore you get to see them sooner! Streetwear is well known for creating some of the most outrageous, out there glitters that are very much sought after today. I was lucky enough to get my hands on the following four without having to drop *too* much cash. Well, I guess that’s subjective anyway! Revlon Streetwear Oct 31st & Rudolph Oct 31st is [...]

Well guys, the poll speaketh. By yesterday afternoon when I planned to do my swatching, Streetwear Swatches was ahead with five votes, therefore the theme for this week is born! I thought I would start the week out with something a little different. Pink isn’t usually something that I gravitate towards, but I thought I would give these two pink Streetwears a chance. Click the images below for bigger pics. Revlon Streetwear Secret Admirer & Virtue Secret Admirer is one of my newest aquisitions, in fact I don’t think I have even photographed the bottle for the reference guide yet! [...]

I haven’t written as many actual entries this month as I would have liked. So far, anyway. But I have been working on stuff. You may have noticed that some things are a little different and some stuff has moved around. 1. Comments Seriously you guys I was getting SO much spam it was ridiculous, so you’ll find now that your comments don’t get published automatically. I still get email notifications of all comments so when I get one from someone who I know is a real person, I just pop on and approve it. That way all that messy [...]

Heya guys! Just thought I would sneak in this quick post before I head out to the German restaurant for some serious meat involved dinner. I’ve been pretty busy this week and haven’t had time to post, but my nails are growing back and I have got some great new stuff I can’t wait to show you all. I’ve hauled a crap ton of BYS polishes including the new Cracked line, some wonderful swaps and other awesome things arrived via Parcel Lady in the last few days. Today, I was meant to spend the day cleaning my house. We have [...]
