China Glaze Free Love. I thought this one would be difficult formula/opacity wise, but it was surprisingly nice. This is 3 coats and they went on smoothly. I want the whole retro diva collection! They all seem so glowy.

This week suck, it’s only Tuesday and I have already torn my right index nail off (all the way down to the nail bed, and then some…), got a huge split/peel on my right middle nail, and broke off a piece of the left one as well. Awesome. Not.

Diamond Cosmetics Cherry Tobacco

Color Club Groove Thang

Color Club Catwalk Queen

They all pretty much just looks black in overcast, but if you get some sun or a bright light, they become rather nice. It’s a shame really, that autumn colors (I count dark shimmers as autumn colors anyway) looks best in sunlight. Because, well at least in Sweden, autumn doesn’t offer that much sun.

Well, now I’m going back to my chore of the day – cleaning up my apartment!

I’m not really in love with these, but I like them more and more.

Jitterbug

Midnight Mission

Great formula on both. I’m trying to get all vintage vixens swatched asap, so I can start with OPIs Swiss collection as soon as I get them (which should be tomorrow), and you know what? Next week, I’ll hopefully be able to show you OPIs new Burlesque collection! .D I’m so excited!

Nice but nothing special.

This one just screams autumn! It’s a glowy brownish red. Good application and all that.

Ingrid is such a Swedish name. I had a school teacher once named Ingrid. Well, it’s mostly old people that’s called Ingrid nowadays. Just like Birgitta and Margaretha. It’s interesting how your name can tell how old you are. Not so long ago, Sweden made it easier to name your kid whatever you want, so now a lot of kids get crazy names. I know one kid that’s named Fantomen.

I really tried to like this color, but I don’t. As I stated before, I guess I’m not ready for these autumn colors. I hope I will be soon, because autumn colors are pretty. Autumn is pretty! I like it. I just don’t like the fact that after autumn comes winter. Winter makes me paralyzed.
