Essie, Day 2

Ha, I did it!  Two days in a row!  Today I have two more Essie polishes for your viewing pleasure.  these are really great colors and I think you are going to like them!

Sexy Divide is a shimmering purple.  It's a little smokey and has a lit from with in feel to it. 


Dive Bar was a bit of a pain for me to really capture how amazing it really is in true life.  This is a blackened turquoise shimmer.  It is gorgeous and I highly recommend finding this bad boy for your collection!

Orly Plastix

Sally's has Orly on sale this month, 2 for $10!  I picked up a couple of the Plastix collection that recently came out.  There are four colors in this collection and they all have a slightly matte finish.  I have to say this is probably my favorite finish of all the alternative(matte, suede, plastix) finishes.

Viridian Vinyl is a pretty turquoise creme.

Purple Pleather is a dark lilac creme.

I really like the finish and these two colors.  I did learn that the Plastix dries a lot slower than the suede and matte finishes.  What do you think, do you like this alterative to the matte finish or are you a matte girl?  Also, I didn't see any instructions for this polish, I used a base coat and no top coat, as that would change the finish and defeat the Plastix finish.  Thanks for looking!

OPI Swiss

Happy Friday!  I don't know about you, but I am so glad it's the weekend.  I have 3 very tired little ones who started school last week and they are looking forward to playing the Wii and going to the outdoor mall for live music.  I am looking forward to it too!

Anyways, I have 2 more lovelies from the OPI Swiss Collection.  Today I have I'm Suzi & I'm A Chocoholic and Yodel Me On My Cell.  Wild names, huh?  These 2 went on flawlessly and have great coverage with 2 coats

I'm Suzi & I'm A Chocoholic is a gorgeous warm brown creme.  (I would do anything for a lip gloss this color.  If you know of any, let me know)


Yodel Me On My Cell is a beautiful turquoise with fine blue, teal and green shimmer.  It is a lot like the mermaid colors we have seen this summer, only deeper.  OPI did a fabulous job taking a really hot color and deepening it to take it into the fall.  The bad new is that it hates my camera.  This is not a blue polish.  I tweeked the picture as best I could to get it truer to its really color. 
Just look at the color, it's as close as I could get.

Essie~Resort Collection

I have some beautiful colors for you guys today!  When I saw these babies, I knew I had to have all 4.  The Essie Resort Collection is my favorite, so far, of the summer collections that I have seen.  I decided to just get the mini sizes in the super cute cube.  But I am sure eventually, I'll get the full sized bottles too!

Playa del Platinum is light grey-taupe creme.

Turquoise and Caicos is a beautiful light turquoise.  I would say it is a jelly!  This is 2 coats, no top coat. 

Splash of Grenadine is a purpley rosey creme.

Lapis of Luxury is my favorite.  It is a gorgeous cornflower blue.  I would call this a jelly also!

All four of these are beautiful and say get them all!  Transdesign has them in stock and I am sure your other favorite e-tailer or retailers will have them too!
