Jessie's Girl Glitter Eyeliner : Swatches : Bourbon Street : Emerald City

Even though all I ever use is black eyeliner (and lots of it) I broke down and bought some of the new Jesse's Girl Glitter liners at Rite Aid today.
The colors I got are Emerald City & Bourbon Street




 They have sharpeners built into the caps, which personally I don't like :s


Gorgeous colors, great color pay off, very smooth without any dragging, and at 1.99 these pencils are a win !!!!!
I will definitely be picking up some more colors soon :)

OPI : Pink and Gold Shatter : And Shiny Stuffs


OPI
Gold Shatter
I Lily Love You
Pink Shatter
Guy Meets Gal-veston

Found all these at my local Acme grocery store today :)

Let's see some swatches, yes ????

Gold Shatter
Over Revlon Emerald City Matte Suede



I really love this gold <3 
& over the green it looks like Christmas lol

I Lily Love You

I'm sure we've all seen this every where, but I'm really impressed by it. 
This is two coats over a fake white nail, it will not show up like this on you, the base is transparent :)

Guy Meets Gal-veston
Gorgeous squishy pink with a little coral to it.
Again this is two coats over a white nail, it isn't a cream. I think they called these sorbets or something close to that. It's gonna look soooo pretty and shiny !!!

&
Last but not least !!!!
My favorite of these...
Pink Shatter !!!
Which is for the 2011 Breast Cancer Awareness
Here it's swatched over Revlon Punk
& a top coat

It really shattered perfectly <3
It's amazing, and proceeds go to finding a cure :)
What's better than that ????

Thumbs up for finding a cure !!!

Haunted Dusk :Fail:

Last night I wanted to paint what I saw in my head onto my nails
However...
Yeah right...LOL
I was trying to make a scene out of an eerie movie, when the sky looks a bit dingy and green through the woods..



It started out alright, some sponging, a moon, some stars...

Then I wanted more in the back ground...
 So I stamped...
 Drew some trees....

 Tried to add dimension...



Then I waited over night for it to dry, and matted it out this morning....



FAIL
How did it smudge after 8+ hours of drying ????

:(

I tried being creative, from now on I'll leave it to the ladies with skills ;)

Thumbs up for trying !!!!

If nail polish could fall in love, this would be Sweet Peacock's girlfriend ;)
1 coat

Revlon Edgy Elegance
Punk

A very silvery green foil polish. 
If you have trouble wearing green, this might work better for you :)
1 coat

Revlon Matte Suede
Emerald City

The first picture is while it was still wet and shiny.
The second shows how it dries to a suede finish.
A gorgeousss shimmering forest/emerald green.

I have some ideas for these colors, and hopefully will get around to that tonight :)
