I'm on a nail polish kick, clearly.

This is a beautiful color. Stunning. Too bad I totally smudged a finger after I took this picture. Had to take it all off. What's nice about it is that it leans towards the greener side of teal which I find is quite hard to find in a nail polish. Well, except for Jade is the New Black by OPI. But for some reason, I never picked it up because it looked dull in the bottle. The featured polish definitely does not. 

It's called Go Van Gogh! by Finger Paints. They always seem to have some kind of art related names for their polishes.




I'm on a polish kick but I promise I'll be reviewing some makeup items in the future, including foundation, eyeshadows and lip glosses. I'm always receptive to any suggestions as well!

A dud and a delight.

Here's the dud.




It's China Glaze's Unplugged, which, to be fair, might be nice on some people. I hated it on me. It was so horrid, I had to take it off right away. I'm not a huge fan of brown in general (I think because I have brown hair, I find it's enough brown for one person) so this polish was yuckyuck for me. I though it would be lighter bronze color - you can sort of see it's lighter in the bottle. But eh, you win some and you lose some. At least it's on me blog!

Now this one is a winner. It's called Warm he-art-ed and it's by a new brand to me, Finger Paints. I love this polish. It's conservative but still interesting.




As you can maybe see in the last picture, it's got a nice gold-greenish-orangeish shimmer running through it - whilst still being taupe. I'll be wearing that one again for sure.

You'll be happy to know that I picked up cuticle balm (from Burt's Bees no less, for $1.79!) and the cuticle situation should be improving. At least I hope so since nothing else seems to be working at the moment. And I will try my best not to pick at them too, I swear. Sort of.

No interesting Billie pictures to date. My sister did get a kitten and I'll try to bring my camera next time. She is such a little sweetheart.
