Dose of Lola

It's been a while since I've frankened anything, and it's been even longer since I've frankened anything I like. Well, I guess this is special because I want to put it over every polish I own! Of course, you may not love it if you're not a glitter hoor like I am. 




The recipe is ridiculous and all over the place, but I did write it down. If you'd like the recipe, let me know. It's basically every blue or holo glitter I own with a couple drops of WnW Nocturnal to tint it. In the pictures, it's layered over DL Bad Romance, but it is now mixed into the franken. It looks even cooler, in my humble opinion. :D




And now, a bunch of pictures in different lighting:



Indoors, natural light


Indoors, sun/shade


Indoors, daylight bulb


Indoors, flash


Outdoors, sun, flash, blurred to show the bling!

Not gonna lie, I'm not a huge fan of this on me. It kind of makes my hands look icky. This looks great on so many people! I'm jealous. Anyway, this is a beige with holo shimmer. The application was great, and I think I could have stopped at two coats. I really should start writing these details down... :]


FYI: Butter London renamed this to All Hail The Queen. Probably for legal reasons. Either way, don't fret. It's the same shade.




Oi, if only it looked like this all the time.

To celebrate my return to square nails, I decided to do a funky french mani. I tried squoval and round, but I think square fits my nails best.




I used Butter London Marrow and a Color Club striper in Black Hologram for the tips. My top coat is Orly Love Each Other. If you enlarge the picture, you should be able to see the pretty purple shimmer.

2 coats, Sinful Pearl Harbor accent


May I just say how much I love Gelous?? It makes my polishes wear like iron, no lie! This picture was taken after 4 days of wear. I normally don't keep my polish on that long, but I was feeling lazy. Anyway, about Going Incognito. It's a gorgeous deep emerald with a dusty quality to it. The formula is grrrrrreat! Almost a one coater and so shiny and smooth. Essie Winter as a whole was just a total surprise love for me.

About me

As a kid, while everyone else was collecting Pokemon cards, I was collecting Bonne Bell Lip Smackers. My addiction to lip balm evolved into an addiction to all things beauty – from makeup to hair to nail polish.
