<br />
Today I have for you Orly's Androgynie! Its a beautiful black based polish with tiny goldish glitter and larger multicolored hexagonal glitters. In the bottle it is amazing and on the nail it is very pretty but I can't say that I was ecstatic about it. First I'm going to insert a bottle picture so that you can see the difference between the bottle and the nail.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgUcQVOXuydddRqwKY1-geE2uYZi6ItdnYye1DCsnNb8t4Zst8MaUYUBlvFabnPqL8kJxJ-rQyESMHdBUwhDxTvr1dXCJmI3BgtJnE02LkDW1YvdFKhUpb6dy0agA9D9oFAS0yzUl8ze4M/s1600/Androgynie+6.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" dda="true" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgUcQVOXuydddRqwKY1-geE2uYZi6ItdnYye1DCsnNb8t4Zst8MaUYUBlvFabnPqL8kJxJ-rQyESMHdBUwhDxTvr1dXCJmI3BgtJnE02LkDW1YvdFKhUpb6dy0agA9D9oFAS0yzUl8ze4M/s320/Androgynie+6.jpg" width="239" /></a></div>As you can see, it is STUNNING in the bottle and I was so excited to put it on. When I had finished painting my nails, top coat and everything, I was disappointed. The hexagonal glitters are a lot more sparse on the nail and the black base almost seems to be a little too heavy and covers up the brightness of the glitter. I hope that makes sense. I will now put in the pictures of the nails so you can see the difference clearly.<br />

<br />
I just have to blow some steam off right now because I am a little frustrated at the moment. I was just ordering some Konad supplies off of their website and was really unhappy with how it went. The whole checkout was just a pain in the ass. I don't know if this has happened to anyone else but I am SO irritated!! The checkout kept coming up as not secure which freaked me out but luckily I was able to pay through PayPal otherwise I would not have even finished my order. When my order first went through it didn't even take me to the page to pay it just went back to the home screen so I was so confused. Then, I got an email from them telling me I needed to pay, which I knew obviously, and the whole checkout out from that point forth was hard to navigate and honestly I'm just really let down right now. I'm sure lots of people have had nice experiences with them but I really didn't. I cant say anything on the shipping or yet as I just ordered the products tonight but I will let you know. I wanted to start doing some more nail art for you guys, which was my reason for ordering the plates, so please leave some suggestions down below. Sorry again about the rant I just had to let you guys know. Please let me know about your guy's experience with them so I know if this was just a fluke or a common thing when ordering from there.<br />

<br />
Today I have for you Orly's Rage. It's a metallic rose gold color and it really is gorgeous and right on trend. I'm not a huge fan of metallic colors but I really liked this one and kept it on for quite a few days. It wore extremely well considering I had it on for five days and only had very slight tip wear.<br />

<br />
I hope you guys are all doing well! Today I have for you one of the Dior Mitzah Bricard collection nail polishes called Camel. I also have the other one, which is Ebony, and I will have that swatched for you all very soon. As soon as I got my email from Sephora that this collection came out I bought both of the nail polishes and two of the leopard print eye shadows because I was thinking about giving one away at some point. For some background info on the Mitzah Bricard, Christian Dior's muse, <a href="http://www.temptalia.com/dior-mitzah-collection-for-fall-2011">here's a link to an awesome website.</a><br />

<br />
This was a pretty yellow based nude which looked even more yellow with my skin tone for some reason. I'm still really happy with it and the application was great. I think this is my first Dior polish I've reviewed on here. I only have three of them so that would make sense. :)<br />

<br />
A few days ago I wore this mani and LOVED it! It's POP Beauty's Ultraviolet as the base color with Glitter In My Stocking, which is Nicole by OPI, as an accent nail. My camera was having the hardest time ever picking up the color of Ultraviolet so I'm going to link to my <a href="http://www.blogger.com/goog_1867870939">Jo'Mina</a><a href="http://www.blogger.com/goog_1867870939"> </a><a href="http://www.blogger.com/goog_1867870939">pos</a><a href="http://www.blogger.com/goog_1867870939">t,</a><a href="http://therealpolishprincess.blogspot.com/2011/04/beautiful-illamasqua-jomina.html"><span id="goog_1940543703"></span> here</a><span id="goog_1940543704"></span>, because they are pretty much dupes.<br />
<br />
I could not stop staring at my nails and got a ton of compliments from complete strangers. I was so excited about it!<br />

<br />
Today I have a Zoya polish for you guys. The formula was great, as always, and I think that the color really speaks for itself. Its a beautiful army green with gold shimmer. Right on trend for fall in my opinion. But lets get right into the pictures! As usual, click to enlarge.<br />

I'm sorry it's been so long but I've missed blogging terribly. After a loss I decided to take a little time off to get everything together and what not. I'm back now though and I could not be more excited. I have a giant back log of manicures from the time I was gone and I cant wait to share them all with you!!<br />
<br />
I thought I'd start with the manicure I did on my mom as a practice run for her up coming wedding :). I gave her a full mani with all the proper pampering. I couldn't be more excited about the upcoming event.<br />

It looks gorgeous on her and its going to look great with her dress. Sort of a retro feel to it. Ive done a post on the color before when I wore it but this goes to show that it really is such a classic color!!! Anyone can wear it! I hope you guys like it and I cant wait to keep posting!! I hope you guys will have me back!!!<br />

<br />
Today I have for you DS Design by OPI. I've been on quite a holo kick lately for some reason and this one was no exception. This is one of the amazing holos that OPI used to make so I'm not sure how readily available it is anymore :/ I wish OPI would listen to all of us and start making these again. This is a sheer polish so it took me three coats to build up the coverage. Onto the pictures. As always click on them to enlarge!<br />

<br />
Sorry it's been so long since my last post. We had a girl just stop coming to work, no notice or anything, so I had to pick up quite a few shifts which sucked :/. Anyway, its pretty much all back to normal now so expect regular posts again!! I missed it so much.<br />
<br />
A couple of weeks ago Cathy, from <a href="http://morenailpolish.blogspot.com/">More Nail Polish</a>, and I did a swap. She frankend me up some magnetic holos and I sent her the KleanColor chunky holos which I may have to buy myself now after seeing how beautiful the red one was on her <a href="http://morenailpolish.blogspot.com/">blog</a>. She sent me black, blue, and green magnetic holos and it was love at first sight. Naturally though, I went to put on the green one and could not, for the life of me, find a magnet anywhere! I was so set on the color though that I had to put it on anyway. You can't find a dark green holo anywhere so I was so excited about this one. Its beautiful, I think Cathy should start a polish shop :) what do you guys think? I used two coats for full opacity and gosh am I in love!!!! Click to enlarge the pics :)<br />

<br />
Today I have for you another Zoya that I got because of seeing it in the movie Black Swan. When I was watching the movie, being the polish lover that I am, of course I noticed the nail polish bottle in the one seen and had to have it and find out what it was. It was Zoya's Bela and it fit perfectly with the ballerina look. <br />

When I put on the second coat it surprised me and actually had quite a bit of coverage and then by the third coat it was mostly opaque. Sooo, basically you could use this as a sheer wash of color alone or for a french mani but you can also build it up to a beautiful, light, milky, jelly pink. It's a real multi-tasker. :)<br />

Also, I should add that I used Seche Vite as my topcoat here and had no problems with it. I've read in several different places that it causes bad things to happen to an other wise great mani when used with Zoya but it looked smooth and worked as wonderful as ever for me. I hope that you guys enjoyed and let me know what you think of the color. Will you be picking it up?<br />
<br />
Until next time!<br />

<br />
I hope you guys are all having an amazing long weekend! I know I am! I wanted to do something fun and interesting considering all the fire works that go with the fourth are so beautiful. I saw the splatter mani that <a href="http://www.thepolishaholic.com/">The Polishaholic</a> did and immediately thought that I had to try it. I used colors from LeChats Dare to Wear Back to Basics collection that I did a review on <a href="http://therealpolishprincess.blogspot.com/2011/04/dare-to-wear-back-to-basics.html">here</a>. I seriously cannot even explain how in love I am with this mani. I will definitely be trying this again with different colors!!<br />

<br />
I hope everyone is doing well! In light of the amazing weather we've had the past few days, which is very unusual for Ohio lately, I had to put on a holo. I also thought it went well with <a href="http://therealpolishprincess.blogspot.com/2011/06/giveaway-time.html">my giveaway</a> going on right now. I chose one of my favorites, China Glaze's Lets Do It In 3D, I couldn't have picked a better color because when I was in the sun I could not take my eyes off my nails. It took only two coats and it was flawless, no dragging whatsoever. Onto the beautiful pictures, click to see more detail :)<br />

</div><div style="text-align: left;">This definitely made my day and its hard to keep myself from repainting my nails this color when I do my next mani. It just catches the eye like no other. It's also unusual because of the fact that its a grey-black holo, you don't see those much. No doubt I'll have this on my nails sometime soon but for now I'll change to something new :/</div><div style="text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: left;">I just wanted to let you guys know that I will also be adding another Ozotic Pro holo (511) to the giveaway. I've had it in my stash for a little while and have never used it. Not being much of a pink lover I suppose it doesn't appeal to me as much as my darker holos. I'm a sucker for dark colors in general. Anyway, I'm adding it to the giveaway in the hopes that it will go to someone who appreciates it a whole bunch!! Until next time!</div><div style="text-align: left;"><br />

<br />
Today I have for you one of my favorite colors. It's a deep royal purple and you all know how much I love dark colors. This polish never looks black in any light but it sometimes comes close. It took two coats for full opacity and didn't chip for quite a few days actually. This color is discontinued but I believe Zoya's Pinta is an exact dupe. If you love dark colors definitely try the Zoya one out, especially since their formula has been so awesome in the polishes I've tried recently.<br />

<br />
Today I have for you Zoyas Veruschka which is one of their matte-velvet shades. Application was great as I have now come to expect from Zoya and dry time was fast. It took two thin coats for me to get full coverage. I love this polish. Somehow, they make it have the most amazing depth that you'll be able to see in the pictures. I started by leaving it matte and then sealed it with a top coat to make it stick for a few days. Click to enlarge! :)<br />

<br />
First, let me get this out there, Blogger has been seriously the worst lately and just isnt letting me respond to comments >:(. I promise I have been reading them and will respond as soon as blogger lets me. I seriously love when you guys leave comments because you guys leave great tips and suggestions!! So please dont stop!!! I will make it up to you guys with a giveaway that includes lots of HOLOS!!!! Okay now onto the polish :)<br />
<br />
Today I have for you my first Zoya polish. Now I have to admit, I have about ten different bottles of Zoya nail polishes but just never really tried them out because they were at the back of my stash. After seeing different Zoya posts from lots of bloggers I decided to finally get them out to play. I have been doing a lot of funky/darker manicures lately so I wanted to go for something summery. I don't usually where pinks but when I saw this color I knew I had to make an exception. This is the most juicy jellybeanie grapefruity color ever, it is just so yummy and I got about a million comments on it which always feels good! The application was amazing I could have honestly gotten away with one coat but I didnt expect that so my first coat was sloppy. The formula just glided on no pulling at the cuticle or patchy spots. I seriously cannot rave about this polish enough. I did hear that using SV on Zoyas was a bad idea so I just used my OPI DS Top Coat and the OPI drip dry to make it dry faster and it really didnt take that long and it worked out great!!! Onto the pictures, the pictures are pulling slightly more orange than in real life (its slightly pinker). Click to enlarge :)<br />

For some reason it just did not want to take a picture of the right color!<br />

</div><div style="text-align: left;">If you guys are looking for the perfect summer color this is it!! It also made my skin look really tan which was definitly a plus. The last great thing about this was the staying power, I am on day three right now with basically zero tip wear and no chips!! Thats amazing especially considering how rough my summer job is on my hands!! I hope you guys enjoyed this post and look forward to some more Zoyas soon, as I loved this one!</div><div style="text-align: left;"><br />

How are you guys doing??<br />
Today I have for you my first Nicole by OPI nail polish, Me + Blue. Now, I have to say that application for this polish was a mess, it was so thick and goopy and just terrible. I put about 10 nail polish thinner drops into the bottle and it helped somewhat but Nicoles just don't seem to have that great of formulas. Along with that, the brush was a mess, it was all wonky with pieces sticking out and just sort of thick and stubby. Not a fan. Now after I got past all that it was such a beautiful color which is why I dealt with the formula instead of just giving up right away on it. It did only take two coats for full coverage and was beautiful and shiny after the top coat. Onto the pictures :)<br />

<br />
I tried out my first DL polish, Across the Universe, and I LOVE it! This was all thanks to a follower who left a comment recommending DL polishes and I'm so glad she did!! She was spot on so thank you!!! Application was awesome especially for a glitter. It took three coats and only 1 coat of Seche Vite on top to smooth it out!! I got this off eBay for $13 dollars which I was pretty happy about as well!! If you guys are wanting to try one of her polishes out I suggest this one. There is just such great depth and sparkle to it. It's a navy blue jelly base with small blue shimmers/tiny glitter (not sure what to classify it as completely) and larger blue and green hex glitter. I'm sure you guys have all seen swatches before of this one but here are mine :) as always you can click on the pictures to see them larger. Enjoy :)<br />

<br />
I'm sorry its been so long since my last post! I had my finals this past week so I had a lot of studying to do with really no time to post so I have a ton of manis saved up for you from the past week. I'll make this one a quick one, I used one coat of Sinful Colors black and a coat of Sally Hansen's Hidden Treasure. It was beautiful and so quick and simple. A good dupe for Hidden Treasure is Nubar 2010 in case you guys are looking! This nail polish is beautiful all the flakies and different colors it changes to although I'm sure you've seen it before! Onto the pictures! Make sure to click on the pictures to enlarge them so that you can see all the wonderful flakies!!<br />

<br />
How are you?? Today I have for you one of twelve crackle nail polishes that I ordered on eBay two months ago but never really had the chance to try. I believe I got the entire lot for $37.00 which was a pretty good deal considering how well they work and they come in beautiful colors. There was even a pink with holographic shimmer particles in it, its so so pretty. I'll have to post some swatches of it soon! For now though, here is their green crackle over Glitter Gals 3D Sparkle in Deep Green which I have pictures alone of <a href="http://therealpolishprincess.blogspot.com/2011/05/glitter-gal-polishes.html">here</a>. I love it and I haven't seen a green crackle anywhere else. Enjoyy!<br />

<br />
I was reading <a href="http://chloesnails.blogspot.com/">Chloe's</a> blog yesterday and finally decided to just bite the bullet and take a stab at some nail art. I always love seeing the designs that she comes up with and admire how creative and beautiful her nails look afterwards. I have never really tried nail art at all so I was nervous about just completely butchering this mani but I think aside from a few minor mistakes they turned out pretty well! I did the patchwork mani which you can see her post about <a href="http://chloesnails.blogspot.com/2010/11/patchwork-mani-tutorial.html">here</a>. I used Milani's one coat glitter in Red Sparkle, Sinful's Black on Black, and OPI's Got the Blues for Red for which I have a post about <a href="http://therealpolishprincess.blogspot.com/2011/04/opi-got-blues-for-red.html">here</a>. Enjoy :)<br />

<br />
Today I have the five <a href="http://www.glittergal.com.au/nails/products_nails3D.html">Glitter Gal</a> polishes that I ordered from there site a few weeks ago. One of them is a My Private Jet dupe which I found very exciting. I found out a little more about the company and their polishes that I thought I'd let you guys know first. One, they are Big 3 Free which I'm all about, especially when the polishes have a great formula like these do. Two, they use true holographic particles in their polishes which is extremely expensive, making their polishes very high quality. They have a really smooth finish and have the holo effect of the old OPI DS polishes that everyone longs for. While all the other companies are skimping on ingredients which makes the holo effect not so holo at all (ie China Glaze Tronica polishes IMO) Glitter Gal takes the time and money to make real beautiful holos. Therefore, the ingredients needed to make holo polishes still exist as some of us have wondered (most companies just don't want to spend the extra money to make them). Anyway :) onto the pictures. All these polishes took two coats with base and top coat. You can obviously tell how absolutely in love with the polishes I am and it helps that it seems the company is extremely dedicated to well made products. Click to enlarge :)<br />

I love these nail polishes. I wore the last one as my mani for the past four days and have only had minor tip wear so I will definitely buy from them again. The only downside is shipping so I make sure to buy all the ones that I want at once. I was thinking about doing a giveaway with some of the holos. What do you guys think? Let me know if you guys would like that!!!<br />
Talk to you soon!<br />
XOXO Sam<br />

<br />
How did your Wednesdays go?<br />
I stopped in CVS today to pick up a prescription and instead of going through the drive through I decided to go inside. This ended up being very lucky because as I walked in I saw all the Sally Hansen crackles out with one left of each so of course I snatched them up. Now, I didn't get the black and the silver because I felt it would be pointless considering I have the silver and black shatters from OPI already and don't want to waste too much money ha :). I do also have all the China Glaze Crackles but wanted to see how the formulas and colors differed on the nail compared to the Sally Hansen ones. I'm just going to get straight into the pictures here!<br />
