Finger Paints - Amethyst Atelier

Oooook!! serious nubbin time!! I broke a nail and had to cut them all down, so now I have a major nubbin situation, like never before.
Not even in the start of the blog did I have nails so short.
I want my old nails back!!
So this is another polish from my swap with Carolina, and I love it, it looks a bit like OPI Road house blues.
It's a dark blue cream, a little on the purple side, but just a little.
I applied two coats, and it was perfectly opaque.
I am not so familiar with the brand Finger Paints, and I really don't know how much they cost, but I can tell you this: I think they are very good quality nail polish, and the application is just perfect, formula too. The brush isn't the best, but it is pretty ok.
Here are the photos:

Finger Paints - Mistletoe Mischief

Mistletoe Mischief is actually a nail polish I got in a older swap with Carolina.
It's a beautiful forest green jelly base, packed with the most gorgeous green shimmer.
I applied 3 coats of this, because with two I still had VNL, but even 3 still has some, but I don't mind, because I love the shimmer - looks like a Christmas globe.
I don't know why I didn't try it untill now.
The formula is pretty standard for a jelly, and the application is easy, had no problems.
So here are the photos, as always click for a larger view.

Swap with Carolina

Before going on vacation I had arranged a swap with Carolina from Colores de Carol, and I got the package today!! I got so much nail mail today. I actually received a package from Illamasqua that I had already thought it was lost forever.
So I got Braziliant, Essie resort 2011, and lots of new stuff. But for now let me show you what I got from Carolina.

Shopping spree

I have been on a recent polish shopping spree, so let me show you what I got:
1. From Angie's blog sale:
This is Orly Lemonade, Zoya Shawn, Finger paints Sketch n Hetch, and China glaze First class ticket. The Finger Paints was a present from Angie- thank you!!! I love her blog, and I think she's so funny.
2. Next up is my Top shop nail polish duo from their new line of make up - and one of the new collections - Sand storm. They have a line of nail polish, and these are a new addition, I saw them on their site and just loved the packaging, I'm a sucker for cute packages.
Isn't it cute???
3. My Transdesign order came in the mail monday - I was extremely happy to discover it.
I have OPI - Yoga-ta get this blue, Hoodoo Voodoo, Smokin' in Havana and Big hair Big Nails from the Texas collection - it's a sorbet I've already tested it, and in spite of the visible nail line I love it:
I ordered two Misas - did I mention I love Misa, the bottles are square, and they have Misa written on the top of the cap - which for a nail polish I find it to be very helpfull, and the nail polish has a great formula. So the Misas I ordered are: Dirty sexy money and Bikini with a Martini.
I also ordered the new duo from CND The look - Spring/summer 2011 - which contains - Perfectly Bare and Perfectly Bare Shimmer.
4. And last but not least - on my recent visit to H&M found these gems:

Oh and so you don't say there are no photos of my nails I can show you my water marble fail
I just can't seem to get this right, my cercles refuse to spread out. So frustrating!!
