Misa What I Like About You Collection

Hi lovelies! Today I have Misa's What I Like About You Collection for the Fall 2010. The collection consists of six new colors that's perfect for the Fall.



Spinning Out of Control is a blurple shimmer. Leans more towards the purple side.


Quirky Smile is a teal shimmer


Like It Like That is a bright metallic grimmer shimmer with slight weak blue duochrome


It's You! is a deep gray with slight hints of green and pink duochrome


When U Say My Name is a deep brown shimmer


Perfect Kiss is a magenta shimmer. Sorry for yellowiness, as this picture was taken as the sun was about to set!

These were very well pigmented and was opaque in 2 coats. As for the formula, they were better than their usual polishes. Misa's polishes tends to be on the thick side, however these weren't as thick as they use to be. I didn't have much problems applying these.

Although the colors didn't really amaze me much, my favorites are It's You! and Quirky Smile. All the other ones didn't really catch my breath. And to be honest none of the colors are unique in anyway, except for maybe It's You!.

I didn't get the Spark My Interest collection because well... because it didn't really spark my interest! Haha sorry I just had to say that. Well that's all I have for today!

Models Own Magenta Divine

Hi all!

How are you all today? Are you as tired as I am after only two days of work? I feel like I ran a marathon or something! Anyway, today I have Models Own Magenta Divine for you.

Models Own Magenta Divine, three coats in daylight. Magenta Divine is a clear based magenta glitter. Woah, glitter! It has been a while since I wore this kind of glitter.. Pretty though! Application was fine, I find that glitters have some kind of manual for application. I want the glitters evenly divided on my nails and sometimes glitter just sticks together. I didn't have that issue with this one though!

In the same range as Magenta Divine, there's Emerald City. I own Emerald City as well, so I'll try to swatch it somewhere later this week. I find myself really busy since I started working more, so I can't do my nails as often as I'd like. All will be fine though, I'm sure! I just have to find some kind of rhythm and balance in my life :)

Thanks for stopping by!

H&M Meet Mrs Perfect

Hi all!

Today I have a polish from H&M for you; Meet Mrs Perfect. I don't think the name is fitting, but that's my opinion. On to the pics!


H&M Meet Mrs Perfect, three coats in daylight - no direct light though. Meet Mr Perfect is a relatively dark pink that leans to magenta. It has a unusual finish; it's not entirely frosty and I can see a pearl finish as well as some very subtle shimmer. It's one of my weak spots, pink. But it turns out, I don't like this color! It's missing something, but I have no idea what. Application was ok, although the formula was a little too watery for my liking. Drying time was ok as well. I expected more of this polish when I bought it. Too bad, but you can't have everything, right?

I want to wish you all a very happy Easter and a lovely weekend as well. I won't be able to post tomorrow, so I'll be most likely to update again on monday. I hope to see you all again then!

Thanks for stopping by!
