Look What I Got!

When I started seeing swatches of the OPI Burlesque Collection I knew I had to have them. I ordered my 6 favorites from the collection. The others I feel I can wait on. I'm not sure when these officially release, but I found them online for a reasonable price. I received them today and had to share! Here they are:

From left to right: Ali's Big Break, The Show Must Go On, Bring On The Bling, Simmer & Shimmer, Show It And Glow It, and Sparkle-icious.

Aren't they gorgeous?! I can't wait to wear them!

Dying Roses

For my latest Halloween nail look I wanted to do a Konad with one of the OPI Go Goth polishes.

I used OPI Sanguine which is the dark reddish brown. I thought the morbid roses on Konad plate m13 would look good with the red. I stamped them on using Essie Loophole. Fun and easy!

OPI Pink of Hearts 2010

In honor of Breast Cancer Awareness Month, OPI released their Pink of Hearts 2010. It's a frosty baby pink with silver micro glitter. I actually really like it! It's very girly and reminds of something a princess would wear :)

The application was smooth and easy. It's very sheer so I used 3 coats and probably could of used a 4th. It did show some brush strokes, but luckily the tiny glitter helps distract from it. Overall it's a lovely polish!

What's your favorite pink polish for breast cancer awareness?

MAC My Bad Magic

My Bad Magic by MAC is from the highly anticipated Venomous Villains collection. It's a mineralize eyeshadow from the Villain Maleficent. This is a really gorgeous eyeshadow. It's a blackened purple/magenta with tiny purple glitter. Make sure to use a creamy base before applying this shadow or it won't stick. Check out this previous post about what I always use to prep my eyes.

I used My Bad Magic in the crease and outer corner. For the middle and inner corner of my eye I used the purple from my Drama Girl palette by KleanColor mentioned in my last post. I then lined the top lashes with Pure Color black liquid liner by Estee Lauder. I lined the bottom lashes with Bad Gal liner and as always I finished with Bad Gal mascara by Benefit.

Since this collection is so wildly popular I missed out on the Bad Fairy nail polish. I even went to 2 stores the day of the release and it was all sold out! So to fill the void I bought this and She Who Dares (another mineralize eyeshadow to be posted soon).

So now I gotta ask, what did you get from the Venomous Villains collection???

KleanColor Eyeshadow Palettes

I love visiting locally owned beauty supply shops because you never know what kind of treasures you may find. I recently had this experience! I found these really pretty eyeshadow palettes by a brand called KleanColor. They were only $2.99 a piece so I figured what do I have to lose?

These are the 2 palettes I bought. It Girl and Drama girl. Cute packaging!

These are the shadows. Really pretty colors. The variety of the colors is what really drew me in.

This is an orange and blue look I did with the It Girl palette. As you can see the shadows are somewhat shimmery/pearly which I really like! They applied easily and lasted all night. I was really pleased with how well these worked out. This was a great find!

Have you had any great finds lately??

China Glaze Ick-A-Bod-Y

I just picked this polish up yesterday and I love it. It's the perfect Halloween nail polish.

Ick-A-Bod-Y is a moss green jelly base with tons of orange glitter. However, after 2-3 coats the base looks black. The application was a little glomy and the finish was rough. After some topcoat it smoothed out nicely!

I wanted to make this even more Halloweeny, so I added some cute decals!

Up close of the decals. Bat and ghost!

If you're looking the perfect Halloween polish I definitely recommend Ick-A-Bod-Y!
