Buried alive

Creative title for my post right? This is Orly's Buried Alive. It is from the "Dark Shadows" collection that wads released earlier this year. It's a dark brown with shimmer. It wore pretty well. I used Orly's Top 2 Bottom as both base and topcoat.


Sorry the application is kind of messy. I really need to start cleaning up the manicures a little bit better. When I did remove this polish it did stain a bit which kind of bummed me out. So, I had to re-polish them because my nails were a yellowy-brown color that looked like poo. Lovely!

Scandalous

Here's what I wore on my nails for a few days last week. It is Pure Ice Scandal with Color Club's Snow Flakes over it. I was able to get Snow Flakes at Sally Beauty for $3.59 b/c I have a Sally's card. I think it's $3.99 without it, which is still not a bad deal. I have seen Color Club for $5 a piece at Rite Aid. Not sure if they have the winter collection from them yet or not. I love Snow Flakes! It is sooo pretty. My first foray into a "flaky" polish. Will you be getting any of the new Color Club winter colors?

On the "prowl"


Here's a recent manicure I did using Wet N Wild's Night Prowl. It is a black base with purple shimmery, glittery flecks. It looked pretty sweet for a day or two. Sorry for the messiness of the polish application. I think I was in a hurry when I did this right before heading out to a meeting. Not sure if you can see the purple flecks in the photo. It may just look shiny. I bought this at Rite Aid a while back when the polishes were on sale for 69 cents. I think for that price it is a decent polish even if it did not wear super well. I did use three coats and a topcoat for the photos.
