What do you guys think of this mani?

This musical is awesome! When I first heard it was in development when I was in high school, I though it would be the worst idea for a musical ever, but after I heard it I was hooked and then I finally got around to seeing it and it was so epically amazing!!!

China Glaze Marry a Millionaire

Hello! So when I did my swatches of the Eye Candy Collection colors I had (see the post here), I mentioned that I couldn't get my hands on Marry a Millionaire at my usual nail supply place. Well I finally broke down and got it at Ulta (which means I spent twice as much on it)... but I got it! Check it out:

Marry a Millionaire. 3 coats. Medium and dark purple glitter with gold/green/turquoise multichrome bar glitter. This color is a total glittergasm. I love it!! I've definitely never seen anything like this, its so beautiful! I'm so excited I finally got my hands on this. Do any of you have it? What do you think?? I'm so happy I got this... even if I had to pay twice as much for it than I would have at my nail supply place. Worth it.

A few China Glaze Eye Candy 3D Glitters + a comparison!

Good morning! We're expecting a rainy weekend again in so-cal. At least I'll have time to catch up on homework. This morning I have 3 glitters from the new China Glaze Eye Candy 3D Glitter Collection and I also have a comparison of one of the glitters.The red glitter in this collection didn't catch my eye and my nail supply place was out of Marry a Millionaire (which I really want), so I picked up 3 of these. On to the pictures/review:

Blonde Bombshell. 3 Coats. Clear base loaded with micro gold glitter, medium gold glitter and orange micro bar glitter. I've never seen anything like this color before. Its a beautiful true yellow/gold and its unique with the micro bar glitter which isn't so apparent here, but it is apparent on the nail. I really like this!

Lorelai's Tiara. 3 coats. Clear base with small silver glitter with medium sized blue glitter. Pretty! This is truly unique, I've never seen anything remotely like this. I really, really like this!

Material Girl. 3 coats. Slight pink base loaded with micro pink glitter, medium pink glitter and hex holo glitter. I really like this but I find that the base tends to cover the holo effect. Take a look at the pointer and middle finger above, it looks like the holo glitter is pink instead of holo. Either way, I like it!

Some Like It Haute. 3 coats. Clear base with micro black and silver glitter and medium sized holo glitter. I absolutely adore this color. I haven't seen anything like it before and of course as soon as this color comes out, Wet n' Wild comes out with a dupe for it in the Color Icon Ice Baby collection. Comparison below:

China Glaze Some Like it Haute on index and ring

Wet n' Wild Diamond in the Rough on middle and pinky

I really can't tell these colors apart. The Wet n' Wild is just a smidge darker but its really not that apparent. They are pretty much exact dupes for each other.

Overall I really like the Eye Candy collection. The glitters are a little thick but they're glitter packed and apply pretty well. Also, they dry extremely fast between coats. I'm very happy with this collection... now I just need to get my hands on Marry A Millionaire. 

Thanks for reading, until next time!

Haul!

Its 11 pm and I just got home from a day of work, class, shopping and movies :). Today was a good nail shopping day. I went to Walgreens, Ross, and a local nail supply store. Check out my haul for the day:

3 Wet n' Wild Color Icon glitters, 4 China Glaze Eye Candy collection colors, Ross set of Back to Boho of the darker colors, a few misc. China Glaze colors and Jade is the New Black from OPI. I didn't buy all of the Wet n' Wild or Eye Candy colors because I didn't like the other colors and I know I won't use them so on my college student budget, its not practical to buy entire collections just to have them. Anyways, I'm really excited to swatch these. I'll have these up in the next few days. Which one of these would you like to see first? Let me know in a comment and I'll do my best to get it done ASAP! Until next time!
