'Your Web or Mine?'

Hey guys.
It seems that I have contracted the cold my poor daughter has.
I cannot breathe to save my life and have sneezed about 15 times in the past 30 minutes. sigh.

However, at least my nails look decent today!
I finally got around to using another polish from the Spiderman minis that OPI released some time ago.
Here's 'Your Web or Mine?'



*Here's 2 coats

'Your Web or Mine' is a metallic-ish medium pink from the Amazing Spiderman collection released back in July. Initially I wasn't that excited about this polish, but once I got it on my nails, it reallllllly grew on me! The finish is a little unforgiving, but it's just such a silky pink that I couldn't resist. I really liked how it looked with my skin tone and will definitely be wearing this again soon. I forsee it as a great 'go-to' polish :)

Side note: I know my nails are horrid right not. I almost didn't want to post these pictures, but hopefully by next post on nails they'll be longer and more moisturized! :p

Do any of you have this polish?
What are your thoughts?
Thanks for reading! :)

Just Spotted the Lizard!

WHEW!
What an exhausting Monday.
Huge biochem/thermodynamics test AND a presentation...
but it's all over with now :)

Today i've got the first of the OPI minis from the Spiderman collection I bought the other day- 'Just Spotted the Lizard!'


(daylight, shade)

This polish is a rich, silky, metallic duochrome of olive green and gold.
Here's 2 coats.

(sunlight)

Here you can see just how awesomely sparkly it is. 
It's mostly gold in direct sunlight like this.

You may also notice (aside from my horrid cuticles) that my ring finger is chipped :(
I hadn't had this polish on 6 hours (& I went to sleep as soon as it dried) before it chipped.
However, most of my other fingers didn't do that... so all in all, it's probably not a huge problem with this polish.

That being said, I was reallllly surprised at how much I liked this!
I thought it looked interesting in the bottle, but certainly not something that I'd like.
In the end, though, the luscious quality of the polish totally won me over... not to mention how it sparkles in the sunlight! Totally blinding!
Another perk is that this stuff dried super quickly; I never even added any SV.
I like that I don't have another polish in my collection remotely like this, as well.

Do any of you have 'Just Spotted the Lizard!' ?
What are your thoughts?


ALSO,
yesterday was one of the rare days where I went a little matchy-matchy with my makeup and outfit :x So I figured I'd show you!

I know they say NOT to match eyeshadow to outfits,
but I don't care. I love the colors in my top,
and this 'fiery' eye is a favorite of mine to do :)
So yes, I wore this out in public!
I always get compliments on it, too :D

ULTA haul!

Hellooooo.
So I was in Hallmark today browsing around,
and it JUST SO HAPPENS to also be in the same shopping center as ULTA :O
So of course I had to drop in and peruse a bit.
And buy stuff :)

Here's what I picked up:

Some minis from OPI's new Spiderman collection!
I'm not into the movie at all,
but some of these polishes look pretty neat.



My first BL's !



Urban Decay's 24/7 Eyeliner pencils in 'Graffiti' and 'Woodstock'.
I've got several other of these liners,
but no way to sharpen them- so I also got UD's Grind House sharpener :)


What do you guys think of my new additions?
Do any of you have these?
Let me know!
:D
