Nicōle by OPI - Kim-pletely In Love, CND - Teal Sparkle & nail art stickers, 3 + 2 coats

Ugh, my nails were *way* too long in these pictures taken last September... I think I layered Kim-pletely In Love over one coat of Nubar Pink Crème, my HG baby pink. I can't stand the Kartrashians, but their Nicōle by OPI nail polish line is pretty sweet.

Rhinestones galore on white

Ah, a pingback/an inspired mani!

OPI Black Cherry Chutney & CND Crimson Sparkle

OPI - Black Cherry Chutney & CND - Crimson Sparkle, 2 + 1 coats

I really wanted to like Black Cherry Chutney more, but it is near-black under normal indoor lighting. Crimson Sparkle practically saves the day with its lovely duochrominess, fading from magenta to red and then orange-ish yellow. All the CND effect polishes I've tried have been nothing short of spectacular, offering literally thousands of layering possibilities. I'm currently lemming the new Teal Sparkle and plan to purchase it soon.
