China Glaze- It's My Turn

 A while ago, I purchased China Glaze- It's My Turn. It is from the 2009 Kaleidoscope collection. It is an orange-gold holo. I unfortunately couldn't get any sun pictures because it stormed today, but I still took a few.

 The print on the bottle is definitely wearing off! I am wearing three coats here. It built up pretty nicely. I did get a huge chip out of my pinky so the wear wasn't that good. (If you look closely, you can see that I touched it up)

 Here's a picture without the flash.

 I cannot stress enough how much I love holos! I'm in the process of trying to collect the older China Glaze holos from the Kaleidoscope and OMG collection. I own most of the Tronicas. I just chopped off my nails after these pictures were taken. They were getting too long.

I received some nail mail also! The first one is Twee & Honey- The Nirvana of Inebriation. This is an INTENSE silver linear holo. It's probably a very close dupe to China Glaze- OMG, which I don't own... yet. It came in the mail like 2 days after I ordered it. Great customer service. I want to order more polishes from this company. Especially Magpie and Sonic Rainboom. These can be purchased on the Twee & Honey website.  Prices range from $5-$13 depending on the polish. The Nirvana of Inebriation was $13. They also come in Italian glass bottles!

Second, I ordered Nails by Laura- Dani-Mite. This is a very special polish. Danielle, who the polish is named after was diagnosed with a brain tumor. Danielle and Laura teamed up to make this polish. There will only be 100 of these sold and 50% of the cost of the polish will go to the National Brain Tumor Society. I got number 37. I'm sure these won't be available much longer, so get your bottle today! They retail for $10. All of the information can be found on Nails by Laura's Etsy Page.

China Glaze- Cyberspace and Nail Mail!

Here I'm wearing China Glaze- Cyberspace. This is a holographic released in the Tronica collection in Spring 2011. It is a really light brown and holographic- definitely unique. Although I love holos, the formula on these is very thin and can be streaky if the polish isn't completely dry between coats. Some fingers I was able to get away with two coats, and others needed three because there were some bare spots. This picture is without the flash.

Here it is with the flash. This color can pretty much go with anything. It's even a work-safe holo for more conservative work environments. I own most of the Tronica collection, and there are only a couple I don't have. I just cut my nails again after these photos were taken because I broke one and couldn't stand the thought of my nails being different lengths. (It's an OCD thing..)

Now the following just may be the most EPIC nail mail I've ever received!

My Lynnderellas arrived! Here I have Change, Snow Angel, and Connect the Dots. I've been on the Llarowe waiting list for what seemed to be forever! The wait was definitely worth it! I still had Matter of the Heart and Sweets to the Sweet on my waiting list and they were on backorder, so hopefully I'll get those someday soon. These are more than enough for now!

I also came across a blog sale on Pretty & Polished. Chelsea had some dusty hunt finds from the China Glaze Kaleidoscope collection and was selling them for $10 each. These were an amazing deal so I got them without hesitation. She had four for sale, and I was able to get these three. This is It's My Turn, He's Going in Circles, and Let's do it in 3-D. These are my first holo China Glazes (pre Tronica collection). I eventually want to own the entire OMG and Kaleidoscope collection- so for now I'll keep dreaming, or at least become less-awkward and suck it up and go dusty-hunting.

My no-buy is still going strong! (4 days without buying nail polish- which is good for me!) The hauls that I am posting are packages that are arriving that I ordered previously. I'll probably cave in eventually  like for the OPI Spiderman collection, but I'm not going to buy polish every day like I used to.
