Who doesn't need a bit of whimsy?

I like a bit of whimsy, don't you?  In fact, Revlon's "Whimsical" has two things going for it:  "whimsical" is one of my favorite words, AND it's a dupe for Deborah Lippmann's "Glitter in the Air," which is an amazing Pink song!  Really and truly, this has been a lemming of mine since I first caught sight of it.  A couple of weeks ago I picked up Ulta's last bottle!  w00t!

I feel like it's been done and done in it's purest form and over white, so I decided to throw it over a navy polish.  (It was a navy from an Ulta set.  I've since lost the packaging, and the bottle was too little for a label.)  Here's before the dose of whimsy, and after:



Yeesh, that's a bit messy.  You know blues, though.  This has two coats of Whimsical over the navy.  In truth, I wish I'd stopped at one.  It really looked better that way.  Nevertheless, I'm pretty happy with Whimsical, and downright DELIGHTED I never came close to dropping $15+ on Glitter in the Air.  Can't wait to play with this some more!

Update:  The navy is from Ulta's Paint the Town set.  It's called Nauti-cal But Nice.

Savages, Savages!

I really am starting to think that Sinful Colors is becoming the unsung hero of my nail polish world.  They're $1.99, they come in a gorgeous array of colors, they wear and apply well...what more could you want?


Today I bring you the second part of my foray into the Sinful Colors sorta-like-OPI-Texas collection.  This turquoise is not much like Austin-tatious Turquoise as far as a I can tell, but it is nevertheless a beautiful turquoise.  Heeeeeeere's Savage!



I am REALLY loving the French guides I brought recently.  "They changed my life" might be a bit melodramatic, but I really am sorry I didn't get some sooner.  Here I've tipped SC Savage with Zoya Indigo.
