Opposites

So, when I posted Bridal Veil earlier in the week, Polish Loving suggested layering it over red, and what a great idea. I had to try it, and it turned out great. This is overtop Wet n Wild red cream:



Since WnW's Tonight's Going to be a Good Night is the pretty much the black glitter version of Bridal Veil, I also had to try it over red:



and just cuz, here is WnW red solo:




I like both colors over red, but I think Bridal Veil looks better. What a great color combo.

Thanks for looking!

I've got a feelin'....

This color is from the Wet n Wild Fergie collection, it's called Tonight's Going to be a Good Night, and surprise, I love it. This color is basically the opposite of Sally Hansen Bridal Veil, it's black hex glitter mixed with larger gold hexes in a clear base. Black glitter - go Wet n Wild! ♥


Here it is over an un-named LA Girl's gray cream:





and this is overtop Going Platinum, which is also from the Fergie line. I really like this combo.

Wet n Wild Fergie Bottle Shots

Since it's taking me more time than I thought it would to swatch these, I figured I'd show off some bottle picks. I got 7 of the new colors in the collection. Apparently (I didn't realize) there are some dupes of Spoiled colors in this collection, and luckily I didn't accidentally get one of them. LOL.

Heels of Steel is a black foil


Grammy Gold is a gold foil


Going Platinum is a silver foil with beige flecks


New Years Kiss consists of both thin and thicker sized bar glitter mixed with silver holo micro glitter


Hollywood Walk of Fame is a mixture of multi colored star glitter with little bits of holo bar glitter


Tonights Going to be a Good Night is a mixture of black hex glitter with larger pieces of gold hex glitter


Ferguson Crest Syrah is a purple polish that looks like it may have a bit of duochrome to it. I'm looking forward to swatching this one (does anyone know what the heck the name is supposed to mean??)


All in all, there are some really great colors here, what do you think of the Fergie collection?

Thanks for looking!

Wet n Wild Fergie: Going Platinum

Edit: I felt the need to show off a couple more photos of Going Platinum since the 1st two were in the shade. I was hoping that with the shade photos you would be able to see the beige flecks better, but here are a couple under my Ikea lamp. Nice and shiny :-)
Man, I really like this Fergie set. This color is called Going Platinum. It's a silver foil-y color with bits of beige flecks throughout. The beige flecks warm it up enough to give it look almost like a champagne color. This is insane shiny, I mean all the picks were taken in the shade and look how reflective it is.





Here's a closeup:

Wet n Wild Fergie: New Years Kiss

Here's one of the colors from the Wet n Wild Fergie collection, New Years Kiss. You know, I didn't even think of this when I bought it, but once I wore this, it really reminded me of OPI's Save Me. NYK is a clear base filled with silver holo glitter, but this one has two different sizes of bar glitter (thin and thick), whereas Save Me only has the thin kind.


Here is New Years Kiss overtop black:


Just to compare, here is Save Me:


and here is New Years Kiss:


Even though they are different, this may be a good cheaper alternative for Save Me. The WnW's are only $3.50.

My new obsession: Sally Hansen Bridal Veil

I am so in love with this polish right now! I'm obsessed with white and black glitters in polish, so it's no wonder I can't get enough of this color. Bridal Veil is a combo of small white hex glitter mixed with a touch of larger gold hexes in a clear base. Here it is over Essie Mink Muffs:



And this is overtop Wet n Wild Heels of Steel, which is from the Fergie line. Boy, there are some nice polishes in that collection, I'll be swatching some later this week:



and a closeup:


Do you love this as much as I do??? I need a backup!!

Thanks for looking!

Wet n Wild Craze: Plenty of Fish in the Sea

So, with the amount of crackle polish I own now, it has to be pretty special to grab my attention. So, when I saw Plenty of Fish in the Sea, I knew I had to grab it. I really adore the color, and especially because it has shimmer (when you add topcoat) and I adore shimmer in my crackles.

This is overtop Wet n Wild Black Creme:




and overtop a gray shimmer. It's a color by Prevail that I'll be showing off in the next day or so :)

Ah ha! I just need to add some Grapefruit Glimmer.

So, I was wondering what color would work with my Mink Muffs mani, but I wanted something that wouldn't take away from the awesome brown color....and perfect! I added a layer of Revlon Grapefruit Glimmer. GG is a sheer pink with pink glass flecks. It works so well, it doesn't change up the brown, it just adds a little jazz to it. ♥
