Hoover DAMN!
So today when I set out to do my nails for the blog, I really wanted to do something totally unique and awesome, especially since I haven't been posting as much lately due to lack of time. I decided to paint one of Las Vegas's finest landmarks- the Hoover Dam! It may not sound thrilling, but the structure and it's artistic shapes, lines and design really spoke to me. I drove out there, because really, does a picture really show it all? Not even close. I wanted to get every detail, from the immense concrete wall barricading the billions of gallons of electricity producing water, to the wires, the steel, the rushing water... I think this design is one of my favorites, I spent a ton of time getting it precisely how I saw it with my own two eyes...
...too bad it was dark out.
;) Happy April Fool's Day!!

Review: High society
Hi everyone~ Today I'm showing you my go-to-workplace nail polish, I love it loads! :) I started a part of my prac this week and since I had been wearing Color Club High society the entire week, why not review it?
Shown is two coats of High society, taken after four days of wear. As you can see, there's no tip wear or chipping, just a little bit of nail growth. By the end of five days, I was mighty sick of the polish but it was still in it's original condition, beautiful and glossy - I actually had half a mind to leave it on!
Application: 9/10
Chipping: 10/10
Price: 8/10 (I purchased this at transdesign.com)
Please have a look at my Thank you-Sorry giveaway here!

Artform Revolutionary Range #503 Silver Green
This is truly the most amazing multichrome polish EVER! I think this is my #1 favourite multichrome polish, the colours are amazing and I just haven't seen another polish like it. From my Googling I believe this polish is a dupe (from the same manufacturer even) as the discontinued Ozotic Pro #503. I can only assume they ran out of ingredients for this one, because why the hell would you discontine it!
#503 is called Silver Green, but the colours flash from an amazing emerald green through turquoise blue, moss green to a cool toned bronze. This was two coats over a black base in the full sun.
My last post mentioned that when some of my bottle arrived they weren't full. Here is one. I only used two coats of this (on four nails for the swatch), so there is no way I used 5mm out of the top.
