OPI: I Brake for Manicures (Touring America Collection)

Hi everyone! Today I have another color from OPI's Touring America collection. This one is called I Brake for Manicures which is a gorgeous vampy eggplant color which is difficult to see in the photos. I think the photos make it look pretty brown but it's so dark I can see why it doesn't translate properly on camera.  I think it's a nice looking manicure but it's not my favorite color of all time, it's just really dark.

The formula on this was great. I got full opacity with two coats and had no streaking or balding.  It wore well and didn't chip for days, which is always a plus to me.

What do you think of this one? Do you own it?

China Glaze: Holly-Day (Let it Snow Collection)

Hi everyone! My power has been back for a few days and I am getting back into the swing of things and should be posting regularly ASAP.  It was horrible being without power for practically 6 full days but we survived and I guess it could have been worse....

Let's get back to nail polish shall we!!

Today I have a color to share from China Glaze's Let it Snow holiday collection.  This is Holly-Day which is a gorgeous deep green creme shade.  I am a huge fan of these types of greens! I think it's a  wonderful color for the Christmas season but it also works anytime in my opinion. 

I am sure many of you know China Glaze has one of my all time favorite formulas, especially their cremes, and this one is no exception! It went on smoothly with no issues at all and it lasted for several days before chipping.  If you look closely at the photos you can see the crazy shiny finish (you can see the surroundings reflected in my nails LOL).  

So is this gorgeous or what!? I am loving this color and think I will get a lot of use out of it.  Do you love this one as much as I do!?

Stay tuned for a few giveaways I have in store. I have 2 full collections to give away, one from Color Club and one from OPI.  :-)

Update: Snow Storm!

Hello everyone. Sorry I have been MIA but it SNOWED here in Connecticut on Saturday October 30 and I haven't had power at my home SINCE. They are projecting that we will have power by Sunday, November 6. Meanwhile my home is FREEZING cold.  

Luckily I have warmth at work so I wanted to send you this quick apology for not posting in a while. I won't be able to regularly post until this power situation is fixed. Sorry!!!

For now enjoy some photos from the strom:

 About 30 minutes into the storm: no joke:
