A Proper Haul

A relative gave me money for Christmas and my birthday already so I decided to splurge. I wanted to get as many of my "dream list" polishes as I could because I figured - Hey, they aren't making any more of these and they are just going to get more and more rare.

So, I give you the following horrible pictures:

L-R: Ulta haul - Butter London "All Hail the Queen"; Ulta "Tink-her-bell"; OPI "It's MY Year"

I have worn the Butter London and it was fantastic. It goes on, well, like butter, and the color is gorgeous. I currently have the Ulta on over Sally Hansen Problem Child. More on this next.


Tracy Reese for Sally Hansen Fall 2010 - Sequin Scandal & Problem Child.

I currently have Problem Child on with Ulta Tink-her-bell on over it. I was surprised at how dark it looked on my nail as opposed to the bottle.



Sally Hansen Nail Prisms in Amber Ruby. Wowsa does this look amazing in the bottle. It looks like liquid fire.



Cover Girl Chocolate Mint & Mystic Peacock. I have wanted Chocolate Mint from the very beginning of my interest in nail polish. I saw it on a blog early on and thought it was one of the most beautiful shades I have ever seen. I found it for sale on ebay but it also came with Mystic Peacock. I just thought - ok. When it arrived today, It was sealed, in a package. Go figure.



My first Nubar polishes!!! L-R: Spark, Jewel, Gem & Tiara.

Spark looks nice, a very subtle neutral color. Spark looks fierce. Gem, what can I say? I am a sucker for an awesome purple. And Tiara because what polish can't use a bit of holo boost?


L-R: Purple Rain Glitter, Purple Beach, Chocolate Caramel, Indigo Illusion & Raspberry Truffle.

Holy poop. So much gorgeousness in one place makes my heart flutter. Purple Rain - again, a sucker for an awesome purple. Purple Beach - duochromy purple goodness. Chocolate Caramel - can you see the shade? Melted gold and chocolate. Beautiful. Indigo Illusion - Wowwwww blue purple duochrome. Raspberry Truffle - dark purpley with glitter = Yum.

Nubar 2010. If I can't get Sally Hansen Hidden Treasure, this is the next best thing. And it is wonderful.


Nubar V for Men - Matte finish. For when I've had a manacure on for a day or two and I want to mix it up.

I am sort of on a haul high right now. This is pretty much it for me except for 2 OPI Muppet shades I'm going to ask for for Christmas. The way I look at it, nail polish makes me happy. It makes me feel good to look down at my hands and see a pretty color. It brightens my day. Plus, some of these are just so fierce! And it's nice to get a Christmas present in September ;)
