China Glaze x 8

Yesterday I got a package from TD, the one with 8 china glazes. Kind of impressed by the fact that it didn’t take more than 3 days longer than usual to get delivered!

I didn’t get anything spectacular, but since I don’t have that many polishes yet, and kind of catching up, I buy pretty much everything and anything. I got 4 from the Up and Away collection:

China Glaze - Something Sweet and Grape Pop

China Glaze - Heli-Yum and Sugar High

I also got these;

China Glaze - TMI

China Glaze - Its Poppin'

China Glaze - Caribbean Blue

China Glaze - Strawberry Fields

And, um, I kinda ordered 4 more polishes last night. That makes 20 within 24 hours. Personal best!

Sanitazion and lilac polish

I really wanted to swatch both neo whimsical and van d’go today, but I’ve been busy sanitizing (yes, not only cleaning but disinfecting as well) my apartment. Times like these I really wish I didn’t have 3 rooms. Finally done with one room I thought I would at least make a try swatching one of the polishes, and decided for neo whimsical. The sun was already going down, so the light wasn’t the best, but I think I got at least a half decent picture. The application of this one is in my opinion kind of tricky. At least when you’re in a hurry.

Oh, and my cat Sivert says hi by the way!

Sivert looks kind of crazy in this pic

Volcanoes and red polish

Until now I’ve thought that this volcano-ash cloud-thingy been kind of cool. I’m not planning on taking a flight so I’ve not been negatively affected. But, and a big but (big butt heeehehe) I just realised that I a couple of days ago made a TD order, and now I don’t know when (or even if) I’m going to get it. I also have a package from strawberry on the way with some necessary skin care, how am I going to survive? I sure hope the delivery companies are working out a solution to getting packages to Sweden. I mean, there is nothing more important than that I get my beauty supply ,D

Anyhow, today I’m wearing Essies Red Nouveau (from the spring collection), and it’s gorgeous. I think I like Lollipop (from the winter collection 2009) better though.

Essie - Red Nouveau

First of all

Ok, since I thought the internet needed more nail blogs (not) I just had to start one myself. Mostly just because I like to take pictures and write about stuff. I’m not aiming for hundreds of followers, I just want to have fun! .D

I start off this blog with my latest package of polish. I got three polishes from Essies spring collection; neo whimsical, van d’go and red nouveau. I also got Essies good to go and millionails, quite pleased by the fact that I ordered this just days before TD raised the price on Essie.

Today I only post a bottle picture. But when it comes to Essie, I think that’s fine, ‘cus something about their bottle makes the polish look so… yummy. I will post swatches of them later!
