Another great swap

Today I received my swap package from Lissi, from Nailaddictsanonymous.
And, again, this is one great swap!
I'm so happy with all of those polishes.

Wanna know what I got?

Well, take a look!
Looks exciting, right?

I'll show them more upclose.

First the Sinful Colors polishes.

These are: Mercury Rising, Daddys Girl, I Miss you, I Love You, All About You, Rich In Heart.
I seriously love all of these,but I am especially excited about Daddys Girl and I Love You. Those contain little duochrome glitters, yay!

Next, 2 Milani's; Hi-res and Hi-Tech.
I'm curious about these two, but I'll wait for a sunny day!

I also got the Ulta Glam Goth collection.


Forbitten, Underground, Tainted Love and Afterhours.
They look nice, right?


Ofcourse, some Claire's moodpolishes, just because I love them.
Bored/Excited, and Flirty/Shy.

Last up two polishes I'm also really curious about.

Pure Ice Heartbreaker, and Wet 'n Wild Nightprowl.


What do you say, nice swap?
I sure think so! I'm going enjoy all of these pretties, yay!

Thanks Lissi, for another great swap :-)

Claire's mood polish Calm/Wild

This is one of the polishes from my swap with Lissi, from Nail Addicts Anonymous.
And it's such a fun polish!
It changes colour all day long, so exciting.


When applied, the polish is just a lovely purple, with lots and lots of tiny glitters.

It dries matte, and starts to shift colour quite rapidly (pics are all with topcoat)

After some time spent in the sun, the polish starts to change colour even more:

And, of course a close-up to show the lovely colour shifting and tiny glitters.

Really, I can't stop looking at my nails, curious to what colour they are now.
Love it!

Thanks for stopping by!

My first swap!

It all started with this post from the lovely Lissi on Nail Addicts Anonimous; a rant about H&M's Bella's Choice.
Not sold in the United States, I understand that's a bugger, blegh.

We have an H&M selling nailpolish in about 30 minutes from where I live, so it wasn't a problem for me to get her a bottle of this beloved polish.
As we started mailing, Lissi and I decided to make a full swap, as I had a rant of myself; the Claire's mood polishes.
I saw posts of those great polishes everywhere, but they're not sold here anywhere. Blegh!

So, the swapping commenced.
(As always, clicking on the pics gives you bigger versions)

I got my package yesterday, yay!

So exciting, what I would find in there..

Nailpolish! Yay!
And there they are... the Claire's mood polishes I've been wanting for quite a while *cheers*

But wait, that's not all! Five Sinful Colors polishes, hooray!As far as I know, we don't have Sinful Colors here, so I'm really happy with those!

And here are all the beauties together:
In the right order, these are Claire's mood polish Fabulous/Funky, Claire's mood polish Calm/Wild, Claire's mood polish Earthy/Happy, Sinful Colors Purple Diamond, Sinful Colors Mercury Rising, Sinful Colors Sugar Sugar, Sinful Colors I Miss You, and Sinful Colours Nail Junkie.

Really, this was só much fun to do!
How great is it to receive polishes you just don't know, and to make someone else happy with some of your local polishes?
I like it!

Of course you'll get to see swatches of these polishes somewhere in the near future.


Lissi, it was só much fun to swap with you, thanks for all the lovely polishes!

Comparison: L.A. Girl Rockstar and Claire's glitter

The other day my sis and I were going through my polish-stash, and she noticed these two polishes looking quite the same.
They do look quite the same, so, comparison time!

The polishes are L.A. Girl Rockstar Overdose, and a glitter polish from Claire's, sadly no name on the bottle.
In the bottle they look quite alike:Click on the pics for larger images.

After the first layer it's immediately clear the Claire's is not nearly as glittery as the L.A Girl.
This is one layer of each.
On my index finger L.A Girl Overdose, middlefinger Claire's, ringfinger L.A. Girl Overdose, pinky Claire's.

This is 3 layers. Claire's can not compete with the L.A. Girl as glitteriness goes.

Last up I put on 2 extra layers of the Claire's polish. It got a little more dense and started to look a bit more like the L.A. Girl Rockstar Overdose. (yeah, sorry, pics are pre-clean up)
So, Claire's glitter polish is quite similar to L.A. Girl Rockstar Overdose, except it is way less glittery, and that's quite a shame. As colour and look goes, the two are quite similar.


Hope this was fun to read and maybe helpful. Bye for now.
