maybelline hip huggers

this is an old one. i found the entire denim collection recently at the Dollar Tree. it included hotties like zip fly and jean jacket.
application was ok but the brush was too mop-like for me. however, it went on smooth and wore for 5 days. pretty impressive for an old drug store polish!

American Apparel Mouse.

I think Illamasqua and RBL had a bastard love child...this polish is amazing in application and it's smooooth. I had 0 issues...it flowed nicely and wore well.
it's very similar to a few of the taupes out there but i don't have a twin in my stash.

lippmann call me irresponsible

4 coats...but i actually feel like it was worth it...and i'd do it again!
i wore it once when i first got it but i stopped at 3 and was never happy with the color but i wanted to try it again. i think if i had used an opaque basecoat it would have been even better.
it looked really great on but i just could not get a great picture of it. so here is what i did get...hope it helps.

OPI Catch Me In Your Net.
Shimmery goodness in a bottle.
These must be new pigments because every brand is releasing this finish all of a sudden. I don't love that all the fall releases seem to be various colors in this finish but I love this one.

I used 2 coats but I think 3 would have been better...Luckily with a distracting shimmer it's easy to hide the bald spots :)

compared to metro chic, jermyn st, grunge, mouse
nails inc had an awesome promo with Diet Coke (OPI are you listening!?)
great application and wear as always.

Models Own Red Alert

I love the texture of this polish. It reminded me of RBL Chinoise, thin but opaque and smooth. Great coverage in 2 coats, nice application.

Rescue Beauty Lounge Bangin
Here are my new actual full mani pics with basecoat and topcoat.
Gorgeous bright coral red. I haven't found an exact twin yet. The one color that was similar but had more orange was SH All Fired Up.
I wore bangin for 5 days...and had 1 tiny chip. Amazing application. As always, opaque in 1 coat but perfect in 2.

Pre-Sale is up. I would buy all 3 again in a heartbeat. I don't know if that helps or hurts ;)
