Good Morning! I hope everyone is having a good week so far. Today's Twinsie Tuesday theme was our school colors. I chose to go with my high school colors which were red and black. I'm not a fan of red and black together, at all. I'm pretty shocked that I like this mani as much as I do. I did two super easy, smooth coats of Bettina Glamour Chic and topped it with 2.5 coats of Wet n' Wild Tangled in My Web. I did two full coats, and then dabbed it on in places. I wish the glitter was more dense. Either way, here's my mani for the day...
Check out my fellow Twinsie's and their school colors here:

Happy Wednesday ladies! Today's post features one of the new Wet n Wild polishes from their new Ice Baby collection, which is Limited Edition and only released to Walgreens. I stalked all of the Walgreens on Long Island like a mad woman, and finally I found a super sweet lady on Facebook who sold it to me. Of course, the day I got it in the mail I stopped at Walgreens for something else and there was the Ice Baby display :o/
I was so excited to get the Nails Inc. dupes, that I wanted to save "the best for last" and so I chose a polish that didn't jump out at me. I put It's All In The Cut on my nails, and within moments it was love. I could not stop looking at my nails. This is beyond gorgeous and I'm going to buy a back up bottle!
It's All In The Cut has small round lavender glitter with pink hex glitter that is larger than the lavender, but still on the small side. The formula was opaque in two coats and easy to work with. I found the neck of the bottle to be a little on the narrow side, and if I wasn't careful I continued to jam the brush into the sides.
The photos below are two coats of It's All In The Cut and a coat of Seche Vite.
If you don't already own this and you see it, pick it up! It's amazing.

Today I have another Lynnderella polish for you. As I'm sure most of you know, you can pick up Lynnderella's polishes here when she opens the shop. If you want these you have to act FAST, because the shop is only open for a few minutes...and by few I mean somewhere around 5.
I first found the Lynnderella polishes on MUA, and kept falling in love with them. Per Lynnderella, The Glittering Crowd features over 100 different multi-colored hexagon, square and bar glitters. It's really gorgeous and easy to work with. Of all my multi-color glitters, this is my favorite.
The photos below are two coats of The Glittering Crowd over WnW Ebony Hates Chris, all topped with a coat of Seche Vite. The second coat of TGC was not necessary, because this was jam packed with glitter on the first coat.
I've been stalking the local drugstores for the Wet n' Wild On The Prowl collection since I first saw the swatches. When I say stalking I really mean it. I finally stopped last week and gave up hope lol. I was able to snag a few of them, one of them Ready To Pounce. Ready To Pounce is a deep purple with a shimmer finish. In certain light it almost looks black, but when the light hits you can see it's purple. It's really gorgeous and the formula was great for the price.
(BTW, my new favorite blog is http://www.nouveaucheap.com/, I got out of make up in the past few years and just used my HG finds, but she now has me stalking the drugstores for Wet n' Wild nail polish AND new make up lol)
The swatches below are two coats of Ready To Pounce and a coat of Seche Vite.
Good Morning! Here is Ozotic Elytra 528 over Wet N Wild Ebony Hates Chris. I didn't realize I didn't take more photos of this so this post is lacking in the photo department. As I mentioned in the last 528 post, I prefer this over black than blue. The purple has more of a chance to stand out and you can see the little random golden yellow flecks (as seen in photo # 2). I know this won't be the last of my Ozotic Elytra 528 manis, so expect more photos in the future!
