<span style="font-size: x-small;">I fell in love with a manicure I saw on Pinterest and just had to replicate it! The pink didn't show up great in the photos but the tips of the nail are actually hot pink.</span></div>
<div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: x-small;">I was totally impressed by the Kleancolor Metallics (I picked up a set of 6 minis at Winners for $5.99).</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: x-small;"><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">LOVED this manicure!</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: x-small;"><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">I used Metallic Jungle, Metallic Purple and Metallic Pink and created a gradient using a regular makeup sponge.</span></span></div>

<span style="font-size: x-small;">Another beauty from A-England. This is Tristam, from The Mysticals collection.</span></div>
<div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: x-small;">I've only used two of my A-Englands so far but I can honestly say that the formula on these blow me away each time. This is two coats but with careful application it could easily be a one coater. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: x-small;"><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">I love the subtle holographic effect on these, sometimes I even prefer it to the in-your-face holo of the Laylas! </span></span></div>

<span style="font-size: x-small;">This was my first experience with Jessica polishes and, I dare say, it will not be my last!</span></div>
<div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: x-small;">Photos of this polish do not do it justice at all. It is a gorgeous shade of lilac with this insane shimmer, which shifts blue-purple-copper-fucshia and it is gorgeous! I had no idea that it was a shifting pigment until I got it on my fingers. Loved this shade and got a ton of compliments on it!</span></div>
<div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: x-small;">This is a current shade from the collection with the Chanel dupes. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: x-small;"><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">This is three coats, application was great, formula is sorta thin but I find that is fairly normal with polishes this lightly coloured. </span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: x-small;">Sorry about the tip wear in these photos, these were taken after 2 days of wear because my camera died and it is very fickle as to which outlet it will charge in (I think it's possessed!)</span></div>

<span style="font-size: x-small;">So this manicure was my attempt to dupe a mani done by <a href="http://www.lacquerish.com/2012/04/magnetic-tiger-mani-tutorial.html" target="_blank">Lacquerish</a> on her blog that I absolutely loved! I had to use slightly different polishes as I don't have the ones she used but I think it turned out alright.</span></div>
<div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: x-small;">I first applied a coat of Claire's Magnetix in Gold which was horrible, the formula was thick and gloopy and the brush was horrible. I added a coat of Color Club Magnetics in Cop an Attitude on top and used the magnet sideways (for vertical waves).</span></div>
<div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: x-small;">I used Konad plate m57 for the stripes (would LOVE to have the Essence plate Lacquerish used, the stripes are much finer and I think look a lot better). I believe I used Wet N Wild Black Cream for the stamping. </span></div>

<div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: x-small;">I loved loved loved this manicure! The Nails Inc is BEAUTIFUL! Totally unique in my collection and definitely worth grabbing if you can still find it. </span></div><div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: x-small;">Max Factor Fantasy Fire is the UK brand "dupe" of Clarins 230.</span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: x-small;"><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">While it is </span><i style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">similar</i><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"> I definitely don't think it's a dupe. The shimmer is much finer and I don't find it has as significant of a colour shift as Clarins. I didn't see much of the blue or green colour like I do with the Clarins (although it is very evident in the bottle). However I must say I have worn it again since this manicure and over a darker colour all the colours were more apparent. </span></span></div><br />

This is the lovely Clarins 230. This has to be one of the most infamous polishes in the blogging world. It has a colour shifting pigment in it that allows the colour to shift from purple, to red, gold, green, blue and everywhere in between depending on the light. There have been new polishes released recently that are "dupes" of this polish, particularly Max Factor Fantasy Fire (UK only) and Girly Bits Shift Happens (indie polish). I don't have the Girly Bits but I do have Fantasy Fire, and while similar and still very pretty, the colour shift is not as strong and tends to stay more in the pinky-purple shift.<br />
This here is the real deal.<br />
This is 2 coats of Revlon Royal (a must have if you don't already own it!) followed by one coat of Clarins 230.<br />
Look for more pictures after the cut! <br />

It is the green relative of ChG Ruby Pumps and is one of my favorite polishes that China Glaze has ever released. <br />
<br />
This is 2 coats of Emerald Sparkle and stamped with GOSH Metallic Green, one of my favorite polishes for stamping!<br />
<br />
This is what I wore for St. Patty's day, so this ends the green posts! Check back tomorrow for a very special polish!<br />

So far I have been pleasently surprised with each polish I've tried. <br />
This was no exception! Covered well in 2 coats, almost has a duochrome finish (not as obviously IRL as what shows up in the pictures), but it is a bit streaky (like I said in my post about ChG Agro, seems to be the nature of the finish)<br />

I'm a bit behind in blog posts, the next few posts will be the manicures I wore leading up to St. Patricks Day.<br />

This is Foie Gras, a lovely purpley-grey cream. It applied like a dream, perfect in 2 coats. <br />
I'm a big fan of colours in this vein, such as Revlon Perplex, China Glaze Below Deck, etc. They are edgy but neutral. If you don't have anything like that in your collection, you need one, or twenty!<br />

This is Agro, a lovely metallic olive green. It is similar in colour to China Glaze Peace On Earth which came out in the 2010 holiday collection. Please excuse the tip wear in these photos!<br />

Shown is 2 coats of polish. This applied very well but due to the nature of the finish, did look a tad streaky.

<br />
Under the low lights of the theatre, this polish GLOWED like embers. SO pretty!<br />

This was three coats of glitter, 2 coats of Gelous and one coat of Seche Vite<br />
<br />
I have some thought on the movie and more pictures of this manicure, but I will hide them behind the cut as there will be some spoilers!<br />

Overall, I really like the movie, I thought they did a good job of translating the book to the movie aside from a few points:<br />
-They did not develop much of what life in the districts was like<br />
-How Katniss got the Mockingjay pin in the movie - UGH not even close to the book and I wonder what this is going to mean for the sequels.<br />
-The three finger salute at the Reaping - ugh. Just ugh. All wrong!<br />
-Katniss and Rue's relationship had no development<br />
-Character development in general was lacking. <br />
<br />
But there were a lot of great parts to the movie - Effie Trinket was fantastic for one! And overall it was enjoyable and a movie I will definitely buy to watch again and again!<br />

This polish MORE than made up for my disappointment with Smoke and Ashes. I never ever wear orange nail polish but this just jumped into my top 20, dare I say maybe even my top 10!<br />
Middle two pictures are most colour accurate.<br />
Perfect in two coats.<br />
LOVE LOVE LOVE this polish!Ashley Malicehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17328878424703709583noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8025617175696160398.post-50964226575523223462012-03-23T15:55:00.004-04:002012-03-23T15:55:00.234-04:00China Glaze Smoke & AshesThis was the first of the China Glaze Hunger Games polishes that I wore and let me say, son I am disappoint. I was so excited about these polishes as I am a HUGE fan of the books and you betcha I have tickets to the movie tonight! This polish was just a little disappointing.<br />
<br />
This looks like a beautiful dark teal with lots of green-teal-blue sparkle but I found it fairly boring on the nail, nothing that special, and most of the time it was hard to tell if it was anything more than a basic black. <br />
<br />
It's one redeeming quality? This is a one coater. <br />
<br />
More manicures from the Hunger Games line to follow! <br />

It's a beautiful, rich deep teal shimmer. The second picture is a little misleading, it's not really a duochrome polish at all. I absolutely loved this manicure though, application was great in 2 coats.Ashley Malicehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17328878424703709583noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8025617175696160398.post-21100032489449595192012-03-21T15:42:00.001-04:002012-03-21T15:42:00.414-04:00Avon Loving Lavender + Pure Ice BustedI'm not usually one for pastels but I really loved the colour of this polish. Avon polishes are not talked about a lot but they really are beautiful and are of fantastic quality and value. <br />
<br />
This is Loving Lavender from their new polishes for spring/summer. I topped with Pure Ice Busted to add a little extra shimmer.<br />

The application on this was great, 2 coats to perfection and one coat of Busted.Ashley Malicehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17328878424703709583noreply@blogger.com0
