OPI Die Another Day and Cheeky CH33
Hey my polished pretties! I'm sorry I've been so busy lately. This is just a really busy semester. I promise I'm doing my nails as much as I can for you all. Today I have one of the polishes I got from the OPI Skyfall Collection. I actually got all 12 plus the 18k gold flake top coat. I'm a sucker for holiday collections buying every collection I can get my hands on! Here's OPI Die Another Day stamped using Cheeky CH33 in China Glaze Passion. I was going for a fall look, but this actually looks a lot more festive than I expected.

Breast Cancer Awareness Nails
Happy Friday! I haven't stamped my nails in almost 2 weeks and I feel so incomplete. October is Breast Cancer Awareness month and I decided to do some stamping to honor it. I used OPI Pink Friday and stamped using BM 321 in Sally Hansen Insta-Dri Presto Pink. Have you ladies had a breast exam lately or at least performed a breast self-examination? Don't forget!

Models Own Mirrorball Collection Swatches
Hi loves! So sorry for the lack of posts, school has been very hectic lately and it's only going to get harder come end of October. Waa! Anyways, today I have the Models Own Mirrorball Collection to show you. These are my very first Models Own polishes. I haven't bought any before because it is a UK brand and shipping here to the US is more than I'm willing to spend. I ordered mine from Ninja Polish to avoid the shipping fees. This collection consists of 5 polishes that contain glitters of different size, shape, and color in a clear base. All are swatched over a black creme and are shown with topcoat. Are you ready for this glittery goodness?!
Formula on these were good. I did end up doing some of the whole blob some polish on and smear it around with the brush, but that's no surprise with these types of glitter polishes. I would recommend using 2 coats of topcoat or one really thick one. I knew when I saw these online I had to have them and I'm really happy that I purchased this collection. There are so many possibilities with these and I don't have anything else like them in my collection!

OPI Germany Collection Swatches
Hey readers! Today I have swatches of OPI's Fall 2012 Germany Collection to show you. It consists of 6 shimmers and 6 cremes. I typically do nail art, but I got this collex back in August and I've been dying to play with them. Sometimes if I don't do swatches of polishes, they'll be in my untrieds forever lol. Hella polish hoarder over here. My stash is at about 486 not counting top coat, base coats, or Konad/stamping polishes. Yikes! What's your "number?"
I really LOVE all 6 of the shimmers. Out of the cremes, I love Dont' Pretzel My Buttons and My Very First Knockwurst. I'm not partial to grey at all and the 2 weird colors, well they're just that. The formula was great on all of them. All swatches are 2 coats, except Suzi & the 7 Dusseldorfs and Berlin There Done That, they're 3. These are all shown without topcoat. Which ones have you ladies picked up?
