OPI Earthquake! NL C44

"Weeping Shades Of Cozened Indigo"

Another favourite song, and a new favourite polish!


This is OPI's Earthquake! and it was released in the same collection as Tahoe Topaz and Beverly Hills Chills. That was a very old collection, only released in certain countries.

I used three coats here. On coat one and two you start thinking "OMG this is never going to look good!" but some how coat number 3 brings it all together! It gets rid of the sheer patches and visible strokes. Amazing.

I love greys. Gunmetal greys to be exact.

Go!!

OPI Cherry Much In Love NL V21

"Over Thinkin', Over Analyzin', Seperates My Body From My Mind"

Another reeeeeeeed glitter, and another lyric from one of my favourite songs :D


This is OPI's Cherry Much In Love. It sat in my untrieds pile for a looooooong time.

I really like this one and will probably only break it out on Valentines and Christmas. We all know my relationship with red.

I used three coats here as it is a little sheer. You can still kinda see my tips here eh. It's also very gritty once it dries so two top coats may be needed n_n

What Tool song is this lyric from?!

Wouldn't be Nail Juice without some... Pinks!

Right! I just finished scheduling posts for this week (woohoo!) And enjoy some pinks for me:

Shorts Story + In My Back Pocket

Do you know why I love the OPI Paige Brights? It's beacause they are pretty much the colours used on NJ (apart from taupe and the red). So I am really wanting to get that blue and purple soon :D

Here are two that I got from Ronna at Sterling Nails, Shorts Story (pink) and In My Back Pocket (orange).

I have only worn Shorts Story as a full manicure, but took it off because it just didn't look right over gels. They look ok here don't they? :P Two of them came off last night. But they were 2/3 that were still there since last time, so I think it was about time that they got lost.

I used one heavy coat of Zoya's Get Even to hide all my bumps and lumps, followed by two coats of each colour.

They applied really nicely, very pigmented.

China Glaze Ruby Pumps

Red lovers - Please, walk away while you still can.

This is the ever so popular Ruby Pumps. I've lost count of how many times it has been re-released!

I used three coats here. Ruby Pumps is a bright red jelly with tiny bits of red glitter, which looks stunning in the sunlight OR inside!

I am not usually a fan of red, but this one is a beautiful shade for sure.

Pretty please enlarge these photos :D

India + M71

This is what I wore for my first aid course :D A lot of the beauty therapy girls were fascinated with the idea of stamping (Konad).

I used two coats of OPI's India Mood For Love and Konad's White polish for the design along with plate M71.

I love M71, favourite plate ever. Mum also loves her one!

Who else has been dying for some swatches? *raises hand* I have cravings to paint my nails, so I do, but it looks like crap straight away over the gels... so I take it off. I cannot wait until my course is over so I can have these lovelies back <---
