Nail Polish of the Day

























Polish of the Day is Glitter Gal's Dark Purple 3D Holo, an Australian polish, ordered here. They shipped super fast and also carry some Ozotic polishes. I love these Glitter Gal polishes. They dry fast, are linear holographic polishes, and sparkle like crazy in the sunshine! Wear like iron, too!!

Nail Polish of the Day!

























Today, in honor of National Feral Cat Day, I wore teal. Check out the Teal Nail Project here.  I choose China Glaze's Techno Teal, part of their Tronica collection. It is a holographic teal polish, with amazing sparkle and depth of color! One of my favorites....

Glitter Gal Blue 3D Holographic Nail Polish

Here is a picture of a polish I recently got, Glitter Gal 3D Holographic nail polish in Blue. It's a linear holographic polish and the sparkle is insane! I love everything about this polish....it went on great, the color is one of my favorites, and the holographic linear effect is excellent!! I have a few other Glitter Gal holographic polishes and I can't wait to try them!!

Iceberg Lotus, from Nicole by Opi's "Something About Spring" Target Collection. I love this polish... it is a teal green duochrome glass fleck that flashes blue-violet. This sparkles like crazy and every time I wear it I can't take my eyes off of it!! Try this color-- you'll love it!!
