What Wizardry is This?

Crazy new polish by OPI.  This is part of their Wizard of Oz collection (which looks pretty awesome by the way).  What's interesting you ask?  Well this is a textured nail polish, OPI calls it liquid sand and that's EXACTLY what it looks like.  It has a gritty feel which you get used to after awhile.  OPI had done a bunch of these types of polishes recently in their Mariah Carey collection but those were all sparkly nail polishes and so I think the effect was lost (sparkles already look kind of bumpy on their own).

At first sight no one else will really be able to tell that this is textured, so it kind of feels like your little secret.  Which also means that it's work appropriate :-)

What do you think of it?






Turned up Turquoise

I just realized that I haven't posted in 10 days!  eek!  So here goes...

When I tried China Glaze's Turned up Turquoise I didn't know what I was expecting ... but I can tell you I wasn't expecting this.  Don't get me wrong, I like it. Just not what I expected.  The biggest surprise? .. it's matte!  It didn't say that anywhere on the bottle and all the pictures I saw of it had a top coat on it so I was totally caught off guard.  But hey, if you don't like matte nail polishes, just put a glossy top coat over it and you're good to go.  Here, I used a top coat just on the tips.

The coolest thing about this one? ... it glows a bright green under black light!
