Confetti/10 polish no more? Lots of swatches here. Grab them while you can!

Sally Hansen (Coty) recently won a temporary restraining order against the company that put out Confetti and 10 polish out. I guess a couple of people who used to work at Coty, signed a contract saying they wouldn't work at a rival company. Or something like that. You can read the full story here http://www.law.com/jsp/cc/PubArticleCC.jsp?id=1202470619778

So, if you want any of these polishes, you should go our and grab them as soon as you can. CVS is not restocking them once they are gone. There are a few really nice colors from Confetti. 10 is ok, but I like Confetti better. They are cheaper too. Only $2 you can't really beat that! I suggest if you do go get any, to check the brushes first. They can be kinda funky, so make sure you get one that looks good.

I did some swatches of the ones I have to give you a few ideas. :-) Try to ignore the ugly scratch on my index finger....was playing with my cats. :-)

First up is one of my favs. and it seems to be pretty popular with others right now. It's called My Favorite Martian. It's a swampy green with green/gold flecks through out.





This one is also another fav. called Happy Birthday. It's a deep purple jelly with miro purple glitter.





Smitten is a navy blue with red and blue shimmer. Very pretty color.





Pop the Cork Purple is a deep purple with red shimmer. It looks more blue in the pic. but it's really purple. I couldn't for the life of me seem to get an accurate pic. of this color.




Next up is Party Palace Blue..it's a tinted blue/clear base with different sized aqua,blue and silver glitter. It's pretty much a topper, and I put it over Pop the Cork Purple here...





Show Stopper is a mauve cream color. Kinda blah.



Now on to the 10 polishes. I only bought two of these. Not much from this line was really calling out to me, but since they might be gone for good, I grabbed a couple to try.

Chocolate Kiss is a chocolate color with a maroon shimmer. it's ok. I think this would be a good toe color.





Palm Beach Purple is grape purple with a silver shimmer. I like this one the best out of the two.




WHEW! That was a lot of pics! Probably didn't need them all, but I get camera happy sometimes. lol....Do you have any polishes by either company? Do you plan to go get some since they might be gone for good soon?

Pumpkin Polish and New Nicole GLITTERS!

Hey guys! :-) How has your Mon. been? Mine has been surprisingly good for a Mon. I started my day by going to Starbucks, and they had Pumpkin Spice lattes and Pumpkin scones! My two favs. It also means fall is finally coming! I love pretty much everything about the fall. The colors,the food,weather,football,pumpkins,halloween etc...The second awesome thing that happened today is, I got nail mail! A really sweet girl I met not long ago, sent me nine of the Blue Cross Pumpkin polishes! She refused to let me send her anything in return...but I think I will surprise her with something anyway. It was too sweet for her to do that. We haven't even known each other long. Anyway....I have wanted these polishes ever since I started seeing bloggers post about them in previous years. However, there are no Rite Aid stores anywhere near me. I also got the cutest cat purse in the mail today. I ordered from the Animal Rescue Site. After all of that, I found a long lost college friend on Facebook. So all in all, a very good day. :-)

Here are a few pics. of the pumpkin polishes. There are nine in all. Four cremes...neon orange,neon purple,black and a white. There are also five glitters that glow in the day! An orange,purple,blue,pink and greenish white.

As always, don't forget to click the pics. to make them bigger. ;-)

All of them



The creams



and the glitters



Aren't they cute?! I love them! :-)

Have you seen the new glitters from Nicole? I think they are Target exclusives. There are also a few shimmers, and creams, but the winners to me are the glitters.

I got four four of the glitters. There are six total. The two I passed on were a gold and a silver because I have so many of those already. I also got a dark magenta/silver which is new.

Mia-Magenta Me? Glitz and Glisten,Pitch-Black Glimmer,Sensational Scarlet and Such A Go-Glitter










Today I am wearing Sensational Scarlet. (I will swatch the others soon) SS is a red base with red and magenta and holo glitter. I've read that it's comparable to Massini Slamming Red. I can't say for sure that it is, as I don't have SR. It's def. on my wish list though. However, in pics. I've seen, it does look similar.

This is two coats, but I could have gotten away with one! When I first applied it, it was a bit gritty as glitters sometimes are..



but then I applied a top coat, and got this....



blinggy red!







I LOVE this color! Then again, I love red and glitter, so this is a win for me. :-)

Do you have any of these colors?

BBC Fairy Blood & CG Pink Twinkle

I wore this combo for a couple of days this past week. I'm actually still wearing Borghese Nero Magico (the new black glitter...can be seen in previous post)and love it so much I didn't want to change it yet. Anyway, I started out with BB Couture Fairy Blood. I wore it for about a day and a half and then added Cover Girl's Pink Twinkle over top. I really like these two together. :-) BBC Fairy Blood is a deep red jelly with red glitter. I used three coats of it, and it applied great. Pink Twinkle is a pinkish base with pink/orange flakes. I used two thin coats of it over BBC VB.

First a pic. of the finished product ;-)



This is just the BBC FB....these two pics. aren't the best. It was actually while taking these, that I started feeling sick and dizzy and had to stop. :-(



In this pic. you are able to see the glitter better...



Another of the two polishes together

Bottle pics...First is BBC FB and then CG PT






I hope you all are having an awesome weekend! I'm off to get some ice cream with the husband. Peanut butter for me and strawberry double peanut butter cups for him. :-)

Borghese AWESOME new GLITTER collection for fall...swatches.

Hey guys! How has your week been? I sure hope it's been better than mine! This has def. been one of "those" weeks. I've spent half of the week being sick, and the rest of it, anything you can think of went wrong. Yesterday, I had had it. lol...We are finally having some nice weather here in KS. It's been down in the 70's compared to a couple of weeks ago, when it was 112 degrees! I kid you not. Anyway, I decided I was going to take a nice long drive in the country. Just me and the radio. That always makes me feel better. After I did that, I decided to stop at Ulta. I had heard that the new SH Xtreme Wears were starting to show up there. I walked in, and there they were! Those are for another day though. I also spotted a new collection of Borghese. For some reason, I've never bought any polish from this company. I always look at them, but end up putting them back. Well this new collection is all glitter, and they had a few pretty unique ones. There are six of them, and I got one of each. You, guys....this is my new fac. collection. I absolutely LOVE it. Even over the Orly Cosmix! They even applied like a dream, and I had absolutely no problems removing them, which is def. not like most glitters. I only had troubles with application on one of them, and even then it wasn't too bad. All of the first pics. are without top coat and the second pics. are with.

Don't forget to click the pics. for a better view. :-)


First up, is Purple Confetti. It's a grape colored base with multi colored glitter. I'd say this one is the most unique of them all. This was two coats.





Mediterraneo Sea is a sea blue base with purple,blue and silver glitter.






Vigneto Berry is a violet base with violet glitter. This is the only one I had a difficult time applying. It was messy and a bit streaky, but it wasn't terrible. I still like it. :-)





Ipnotico Gold is a pretty fall colored gold with copper flakes. I don't normally like gold polish on myself, but I actually like this one.





Scintilla Magic is a bright red base with red glitter. This color is hot! LOVE it! It def. gives Ruby Slippers and Ruby Pumps some competition. :-)





Nero Magico is a black base with tons of silver glitter. This is an awesome black! Even my husband, who doesn't much care for black polish, likes this one, and for him to notice says something! LOL!





What do you think of this collection? I pretty much think everyone needs it! LOL! I am soo in love with all of them! I def. won't be passing by Borghese again. :-)

I hope you all have an absolute wonderful weekend. :-)

Sunset Prisms and Horned Devil

It's Monday again....ugh. lol...Did everyone have a good weekend? I hope so! Yesterday I did my nails with Maybelline Sunset Prisms. It's a really pretty orange color with flashes of green. I like it on it's own, but it applied a bit streaky. I had already applied three coats, and didn't want to mess with it anymore. So I went looking through my stash to see if I had a glitter to top it off. I decided on BB Couture Horned Devil which is one of my all time fav. polishes. It's an orange jelly with orange and gold glitter. I seriously love this polish. I think I might need a backup bottle. Speaking of BB Couture, do they usually put out a fall collection? I'm ready for some new BBC polish! :-) Anyway, I put one coat of Horned Devil over Sunset Prisms, and I quite like it. :-) These pics. were once again taken before clean up. It was getting cloudy, and I wanted to hurry.

Sunset Prisms with Horned Devil

Bottle pic. of Horned Devil....I took a few of the Sunset Prisms bottle, but I just couldn't get them to come out right.



Well, I'm off to do a little polish shopping now. Wish me luck! lol! I hope you all have a wonderful Mon. or at least try to. ;-)
