Friday, discouraged after a long wait at the DMV I wandered into my local dollar tree to look over their polish. They never really have much, and this was true on Friday. So I got directions to another dollar tree nearby! There, I had to stop myself from buying everything because I am officially on a shopping hiatus.
The haul:
The first and last polish came in a pack of two for $1, and everything else was $1.
Left to right: NYC Metallic Nail Glossies - Molten Metal, LA Colors -572, 571, Topcoat and Hardener-Strengthener, Sally Hansen Salon - Sweet Creams
I attempted my first water marble with the blue LA colors and China Glaze - Tree Hugger for about an hour before admitting that I failed miserably and giving up. ..Then I attempted a French manicure with Sweet Creams and a shimmery white that I had and also failed miserably. That cream made my nails look fake.
:(
Finally, I begrudgingly put on NYC - Molten Metal. ..And instantly loved it. This is a warm metallicy brown color that is completely unique to my collection.
This is three coats. It was actually drying with a pretty glossy finish, but I couldn't resist the lure of Seche Vite. Hence, there is shrinkage.
After this post I'm going to see if it will konad. :)

This is GORGEOUS!!! I love the textured look, even though it dries smooth. =]
ReplyDeleteOh my gosh I know right! Negative on the stamping, though. :(
ReplyDeleteNice haul.
ReplyDeleteHave you used the LA Colors Top Coat yet? I have it and haven't used it. Just wondering how it is.

Nope! Haven't gotten around to trying it. That blue polish is in my near future and I think I'm going to use it then. :) I'll let you know!
