Dose of Lola

2 coats


This is one of the only bright corals I like on me. It's not too orange and it's not too red. Yay!

My camera is being repaired, so the next few posts will feature some of my older manis. That means pre-cleanup pictures. I've pretty much broken the habit of taking pictures before cleanup...mostly.


2 coats


Oh jeez, when the Shrek collection came out, I was so flippin' excited. I love the whole Shrek franchise, and I loved that it was a collection of interesting colors. No pink or red! Unfortunately, I was not so happy with this one. I don't know what it is, but most blue lighter than midtone just look terrible on me! Ho hum. Anyway, I can't really comment on the formula because I don't remember.


Oh, and the cherry blossom accent is OPI Alpine Snow, Miami Beet, and Black Onyx

1 coat over 1 coat of SH Midnight In NY


Fireberry Red is a polish everyone should own. It's $2, it's awesome, and it's OPI Smitten With Mittens deeper sister. I flippin love it! It literally glows. I had no problems with application, but maybe I should save my judgment for when I use more than one coat of this. Also, Midnight In NY? Gorgeous black with a subtle multicolored shimmer. It looks like the night sky.

This is the look I wore to see HPDHP1. Once again, super late. :] I thought it looked a little Mcdonald's-esque, so I added MAC Reflects Blackened Red to add a little magic. I had no time to take more photos though. Anyway, here's the look:





I can't remember everything I used, but I know the gold is TMM Sunflower.

1 coat over AA Mount Royal


Galaxy Girl is amazing! I love this so much more than Space Cadet, which does not look good on me at all.  I especially love the pink flash in this. It's just so pretty!  I think I needed 3 coats for opacity when I wore this alone, but one coat over underwear works just as well. Save that polish, guys and gals. The entire Cosmix collection was amazing. Great job, Orly!

Imagine this is a touch more purple and slightly deeper. Such a gorgeous color and it has a great formula too! This is my first time trying AA polish, and I'm glad I have tons more to try:




Now I just have to figure out which to try next. :]

About me

As a kid, while everyone else was collecting Pokemon cards, I was collecting Bonne Bell Lip Smackers. My addiction to lip balm evolved into an addiction to all things beauty – from makeup to hair to nail polish.
