NOTD- Milani Whimsical

Milani Whimsical

I am new to Milani, but I had a $10 ECB to spend by today, and nothing but Milani caught my eye this week in their circular. Milani polishes are BOGO half off this week. Regular price is $5.

Whimsical is part of Milani's Black Magic Collection.

This shade is a black jelly with gorgeous purple glitter. Gorgeous I say!!!!!!

On my toes ...

China Glaze in LOL, plus a glitter topcoat. Getting the last bit of summer time colors in while I can!

NOTD: L'oreal Hopeful Plum

L'oreal Hopeful Plum

O. M. G. I am finally feeling better! My nails were- shock- bare for over a month! I had to cut them down because all that time without polish protection did a number on them.

Now that I am feeling better, I am back on the painting bandwagon.

This shade is from L'oreal's Color of Hope collection in honor of Ovarian Cancer Awareness Month.

I really like this color- it's a deep plum, almost burgundy, with a gold shimmer. Application was nice- I really like L'oreal's formula.

Here's a sunlight picture on flickr- it's dreary here so I can only get indoor shots right now.

Head on over to my giveaway blog, Sasha Says Giveaway, to enter a giveaway for a new, unopened, pack of Holiday OPI minis from 2008. I'm ready for fall and vampy colors and this fits the bill great! Good luck!

Back On

I tried to be strong. I really did. 5 whole weeks. I couldn't handle the splitting and the peeling anymore. The weak nails that couldn't withstand the simple task of buckling my kiddo in his carseat. So I went running back to the nail salon! Again, the acrylics don't have a specific color name, but when I match up my pedi, we can just borrow OPI's names. To get the color on my toes to match, we did the bottom coat in OPI Malaga Wine and a coat of Pompeii Purple on top. Dark pink top coat, added some sparkle, and voila!! One happy girl.
