dot crazy

Okay so I finally decided to use the dotting tool I had sitting around (I actually have 5 because that's how they were selling them on eBay for like $1!) so I used one and this is what I came up with - multicolored dots!!!!

For this mani I used Sally Hansen Insta- Dri Whirlwind White as a base (after I used OPI natural base coat) and dotted with Joe Fresh Fuchsia, Powder Blue, Coral, China Glaze For Audrey, Four Leaf Clover, OPI Mod About You, and American Apparel Peacock. Topped off with one coat of Seche Vite.

Here is a picture of everything I used:

I'm pretty sure you can figure out which bottle is which!

I love using Sally Hansen Insta-Dri White as my base for things because it dries so fast and it's just a base so I don't have to worry about it being perfect! As for the rest of the colors, they all applied really well, and it was a lot easier than I thought it would be! I just put a dab of polish on a piece of paper and then used the dotting tool!

I got a lot of compliments while wearing this people were like "WOW DID YOU DO THAT YOURSELF?!" they loved the left hand, good thing they didn't see the mess that was my right hand! Man I wish I was ambidextrous!!!

Today we packed up all my winter clothes, and then we will do everything else next week! Hope you guys stick along to experience my journey living in residence!

Have a great day, thanks for reading!!!!!!

American Apparel

Okay, so these are probably my new favourite polishes, and I can't wait to get my hands on more of them!! I bought 3 because it was a 3 for $18 deal, (why is it 3 for $15 in the States? our $ is pretty much the same!) Oh well, still it was a good deal! $6 each!
So the ones I bought were Office Gray, Peacock, and Butter! It was my first Gray polish so I'm really excited! I also want to compare Peacock with some of the other colours I have.

Butter

Factory Grey

Peacock

They all had amazing application, and only took about 1-2 coats! Amazing! They dried reasonably fast too which is great!

I was reading some blogs yesterday and I learned to try to avoid putting polish near the cuticles to make removal easier, so next time I think I will try that, and hopefully have a better result. But I think I am improving!

Peacock was my favourite, I didn't want to take it off!!

What is your favourite American Apparel polish? Which ones should I get next?

Thanks for reading!
Happy Saturday! :)

It's my only day off work - back to work tomorrow - so I'm gonna enjoy it!!!!

I almost forgot! Tonight is the Black Eyed Peas Concert!!!!

haul!!

Alright so I wanted to hold off on buying more polishes until the new OPI Swiss collection came out... but uh.. as we all know temptation is a bitch! So I went to the place where I get my eyebrows done, and across the street is American Apparel, so I'm like OF COURSE I have to go buy those! Then I went to Subway for lunch and on the way was a Shoppers Drug Mart - so OF COURSE I had to go in! And my salon place HAD to sell color club polish so OF COURSE who ends up buying them? ME. UGH!!

Color Club: Orange Revenge and Electro Candy

American Apparel: Butter, Peacock, Factory Grey

Orly: La Playa + Top 2 Bottom

These were all firsts to my collections! I am for sure going to buy more AA polishes and ORLY I want to try the Plastix collection. However, I do not think that Color Club was a value for my money and I would rather stick to the other polish brands!
Guess where I got Orly? Shoppers! Who knew they sold them there? I had to take a picture!

The one missing from the box is the one I took... I guess it's not very popular here yet?!
Swatches to come soon! :)

What is your favourite American Apparel polish?

Thanks for reading and have a wonderful weekend!!
