The Manicured Slayer's Stash--The Continuing Saga

(Last Updated 9/7/2011)
*Please note* I am getting ever behind on photographing these lovelies....so for now the photo archive will stay as is. I will try to photograph bottles as I use them in manicures. I will be posting a list of polishes that will be much simpler to maintain.


Zoya Color Lock System



ZOYA!

Casey (Purple/Black), Pippa, Sasha

 Colette, Kotori, Elke
 Manhattan Mixer (lemon-lime sparkle), Charla (tropical blue glitter), Rica (tangerine glitter), Ivanka (mermaid glitter)
 Fall/Winter Mattes: Dovima, Savita (more purple than blue), Veruschka, Harlow. Just a hint of shimmer.
Mod Mattes! Phoebe, Lolly, Mitzi--they have the *slightest* hint of a sparkle, more of a glow.


Black Shatter, Katy Perry Teenage Dream, Katy Perry Not Like the Movies (duochrome)
Orly FX Space Cadet (duochrome)



Matte Finish Shine Free Topcoat--take ANY polish, add a coat and voila! Instant matte! LOVE!



China Glaze, Island Escape Collection
(L-R) Senorita Bonita, Papaya Punch, Electric Pineapple, Cha Cha Cha, 108 Degrees, Blue Iguana
(Stay Tuned! My next Manicure post will feature this collection!)



L.A. Girls Cracked in Fracture (more purple)--Got this from Hot Topic



Deborah Lippmann Glitters (Beauty.com)
(L-R) Happy Birthday, Across the Universe, Bad Romance


Nicole by OPI--Adorable Heart Glitter!
Have a Heart, Step 2 the Beat of my Heart



Nubar--Glitter, Flakies, Shimmers, Duochrome
(Back L-R) 2010 Flakies, Iced Licorice, Strawberry Punch, Sugar
(Front) 2 Mini bottles Peacock Feathers (Discontinued--Ebay find!)



Nubar Double Art Pens
14K (gold), Black
Unscrew the cap for a thin art brush; pull top of cap off for a fine metal tip--squeeze the bottle to use.



OPI Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides Collection
(L-R) Silver Shatter, Skull & Glossbones, Planks a Lot, Steady as She Rose, Mermaid Tears, Stranger Tides, Sparrow Me the Drama


OPI My Private Jet



And now....THE MOST ADORABLE POLISH EVER!


French polish Nfu Oh, Victorian Collection! The bottles look like corseted dresses, from the cap to the glass bottle! Who could not love that?
(L-R) Flakies 56, 50, 49, 51, Hologram 63

 Here's a closeup of the cuteness and detail!

 

I tried to get a shot of the amazing hologram glitter in this, but no luck--I'll have a mani post soon! 
I got these from FabulouStreet.com, they have AWESOME customer service!


Revlon Scented Polishes

China Glaze Metallic Crackles 
(L-R) Oxidized Aqua, Tarnished Gold, Haute Metal
I chose only to get these 3 since I already have silver shatter and didn't see much difference between the bronze and the gold. The lavender didn't thrill me much either.



Revlon (from my old stash)
(L-R) Bolt, Spirited, Blissful, Copper Glaze Platinum
(may be out of order)


Revlon (Old Stash)
(L-R) Moonlit Wine, Suitably Ruby, Exotica, Copper Glaze Wine, Kiss Me Coral

I cannot recommend these two ENOUGH. Less than 3 weeks, there is visible nail growth, and the cuticle oil feels great on my skin!

Posh--Matte Red, Raven--Perfect Black


Soho Punch--orange/coral glitter, Jem--purple duo (multi?) chrome

Clarins 230! Aka Unicorn Pee!
(L-R) Mini Sheer, #230, #220

Clarins Le Vernis Multi Eclat #220



Sheer Shimmer--in a mini bottle. Is there anything cuter than a tiny bottle of nail polish?





#230 in all her majestic glory! Photos really can't do this polish justice!



Attempting to show you her fetching multichrome, it truly is dazzling!
Obviously this polish is going to be saved for VERY SPECIAL OCCASIONS!!
