31 Day Challenge ~ Day 4: Green


Today's challenge is GREEN!

This colour is one of my favourites, and I found it on my first trip dusty hunting. It is China Glaze ~ He's Going In Circles, a lovely seafoam green. 

I love the China Glaze holographics from the Kaleidoscope collection because the holographic particles are really sparkly compared to other holographics. The particles are larger and the effect is more scattered, while still linear!

I know this post is a day late, but I was out in the sun all day yesterday :p




Check back tomorrow for Day 5: Blue =)

Also check out everyone else doing the challenge with me:

SEXY BOMB!


***WARNING!***
***LOTS OF***
***PICTURES***

Here I have for you a new brand of polish called SEXY BOMB!! I bought these from a local Asian make up store called "Cara". This is a new line they are carrying, and many of the polishes are duochromes! These polishes don't have names, but this one is labelled "S66".


I love everything about this polish! The bottles are gorgeous, it's a foil-y duochrome, it applies well and dries fast.

The brush is also really great! It makes application a lot easier. It is flat and wide, but not as wide as the Sally Hansen Insta-Dri's, so it's easier and less messy to use. The end of the brush is also curved, which makes it easier to get close to the cuticles.



S66 is a gold foil that shifts to a greenish-blue depending on the light.

Here is what the polish looks like most of the time:
This is only 2 coats!

Most duochromes I've dealt with need lots of coats, so this one is a winner!

Check out the duochromeyness!

Hope you enjoyed!

Canucks!


The other day I went to watch the
Canucks
!! 



They had an open Training Camp that you could watch for FREEEEEE =) Which is super duper awesome! (you don't want to know how much $$$ me and my bf paid for tix last year...)


Here's a quick peek at what I used, accompanied by a lovely picture of Henrik's back...boy wouldn't turn around!


For this mani I used Gosh Blue Monday for the base, with Revlon Emerald and Sally Hansen Insta-Dri Whirlwind White for the stripes. 

It's a bit messy because I did it quickly the night before and I have still yet to get my brushes I ordered from ebay 1 month ago...and I was too impatient to use tape. I also had to get up early the next day because practice started at 8:30am and it was general admission! Left home at 6:30am to pick people up, transit there, then line up in the Vancouver rain! But alas, I must say goodbye to summer...and welcome back our bipolar weather!

Blue Monday is gorgeous! It has subtle pink and purple sparkles and such and endearing texture to it!

Look how close I was sitting!!! Too bad Henrik wouldn't turn around!

Do you ever do up your polish for sports teams???
