Ulta Love My Blackberry

A few months ago, an Ulta opened up a mile away from me. This has been a blessing and a curse. It's nice to be able to just drive 5 minutes and be at Ulta's doorstep whenever I want, but that is also the problem. I really try to keep my visits there to a minimum. I only really go once a month now, and always with a coupon! I found this pretty on sale there last time.

Ulta Love My Blackberry




Love My Blackberry is a super glowy blue-violet shimmer.

I love the shimmer in this.  The color really changes depending on how the light hits it. I like how at certain angles the vibrancy of the color fades into black on the edges. I hope that makes sense.  I'm terrible at describing some of these pretty polish phenomena. It's definitely a neat color!

Happy Friday!

Finger Paints Cordur-Orange

I have a few Finger Paints polishes, and I love them all. I have an issue with Finger Paints. It's not really Finger Paints fault though. Their LE collections are really going to be more LE than others. Why? They are only found at Sally's Beauty Supply. It's not like OPI or China Glaze LE stuff, because you can find those in multiple locations. Finger Paints on the other hand, I feel more of an urgency to find these before I never see them again...ever. I messed up with this color. I completely bypassed it, and regretted it. This one was in the 2011 Fall Fashionista collection.I figured I lost my chance, but thankfully I found it on a blog sale!

Cordur-Orange



Cordur-Orange is a rich saturated red-orange creme.

This is such a great color. I love the richness and vibrancy of it. It's definitely more difficult to write a good review on something, so I'll leave it at that. Awesome color. What else could I possibly add?

Happy Thursday!

LA Girls Habit

I love these LA Girls Color Addict colors. They have gold shimmer my favorite! I just wish I could find these in stores. I know you can find these repackaged at Forever 21, but they're all in big piles without real color names. It's not always easy to find what you're looking for. I know that comment probably makes me sound high-maintenance :-/. This is a pretty purple.

Habit


Habit is a violet with a golden shimmer.

Yes, purple with gold shimmer. This makes me happy. I love the formula on this. These are great polishes with an awesome color selection. I know you can find them on Cherry Culture.

Happy Wednesday!
