This has been discontinued for quite some time, I'm sure, but was a favorite of mine for quite a while. I love Stila products!

I was in the mood for a coppery, shimmery, brown and this fit the bill. The application is really nice. My cuticles need some TLC and I see that now that I uploaded my pics.....

This is ONE coat. It's weirdly thick and I've never had a polish apply quite like this. It wasn't bad, just not what I'm used to. I was afraid to do a second coat, and it looked good after one, so I stopped. I'm getting used to it, but I'm not sure that I love it yet.

I have picked up a few China Glaze polishes recently, but hadn't tried them since I was slowly making my way through my OPI DS shades (almost there!).

Last night I was feeling like a bright color, so I pulled this out. It's fabulous! The shimmer is so pretty, especially in the sunlight. Application was good- smooth. This is two coats, and you can see a bit of a VNL, but I'm OK with that- it's still pretty.

I picked this color up over the Christmas holiday and am just now getting around to trying it. I have $OPI Never Enough Shoes on my toes, so I wanted something completely different for my tips, and I think I've got it!

This is really pretty. There's small pieces of glitter that looks gorgeous in the light.

Love love love this shade! In fact, I love all the DS shades I have tried so far. They are amazing in the sun and the application is so dreamy I never want to go back to creams!

This is really pretty, and reasonably priced to boot. I paid less than $4 at CVS last week. There is quite a bit of gold shimmer in this polish. I had some application issues, but I think it was due to it being hot and humid here and I probably need to think my base coat a bit.

I'll definitely try this again and see if I can get better application.

Love this sparkly pink! I had enough of the light blue and was ready for something girly. This fit the bill. I love the application that you get with a shimmery polish- very easy and fast-drying.
