How much is too much?

First i want to start of by saying Michelle is very sweet also a little naive, because she allowed me to join her Fix My Fail challenge, but thank you anyway. 

Now, I've been thinking and thinking about how much i want to tell you'll not because you'll are not awesome but because i just don't know if you'll actually want to know?  

I think I'll tell you'll because you girls mean so much to me, its not even funny how much i adore you'll I'm sure you know I've been frequenting the hospitals lately and I have to go in for a lumpectomy on Saturday. I know its not the end of the world and its just a minor surgery but I'm upset and scared. And I want you'll to know why i disappeared *in case i do*  Just kidding, I'll schedule a few posts and if I still don't come back then i didn't make it! Kidding! Kind of.

 So that's that a little piece of my life is now on the Internet for all to see and that makes me feel even more vulnerable but i really wanted to tell you'll. Also i figured you'll could send a sister some prayers/luck/voodoo whatever makes you roll! 

Enough wah-wah, so i did tell Michelle i don't have similar colours or glitters she was naive  kind enough to let me try anyway. and well here's my attempt

Fingers have my photo's improved?     




i started with Colorlife #251 which I'd have called Hooker Red but i think Hooker Red would be more red, this can be Bloody Mary. Yes, Colorlife I'll work for you and turn your poor numbered polishes into awesomely named babied :) 

This is two coats, it was very nearly a one coater though! Then i used my VOV silver glitter polish that is loaded with Hexes big and small. I emptied a little onto a plastic lid of a take-away box *yay recycling* and then placed them on my nails rather haphazardly 

I like it! I hope you do too Michelle!

I must admit the formula of the VOV glitter was crappy, it was clumpy and dried too soon and did cause my Bloody Mary aka #252 to run a little. All in all though i was happy with the result! 



Where have i found better lighting in my house? Its the bathroom the lighting is perfect and so is the background :) 

Take Care and See you Soon

I'm on Crack(le)

I bet that title got you peeps wondering? Hehe im not addicted to anything! *right* .

I've complained mentioned before,we don't get half the awesome things you'll get there. Of course i shop online but not as much cause i still don't trust the pay first and wait for your order system! I know I'm ancient lets move on shall we?

I found this pack of three Crackle Polish and had to have it, now i didn't actually see it my younger sister *hello* saw one of the mani's online and saw it when she went shopping with mum! Did she buy it? hell no we're sisters not friends ugh! *read we fight* anywhoo i bought it the next day yay me!

  nice right? i wonder what they mean by play!


I was very excited to try them so i paired a colour each to do a single finger swatch, and well i clicked pictures individually and together *picture heavy*





I used Avon Coral Beat for the Black one, Colorbar Exclusive Shade # 44 and i cannot for the love of god remember the white one so I'll add it later :)
Now I'll let my pictures (i don't have a light yet and this is one of the older Mani's so I'm sorry if the clean up or light sucks) do the talking!


 I didn't mind the dent cause the crackle would cover it




 Coral Beat and Black



The nameless and Red



Colorbar Exclusive #44 and purple



 all together





that's me and this is what is use to click pics :)



one more for good measure 

The Crackle polish retails for about 185/-Rs (about 4 dollars) for the pack of three. I can't comment on how long it lasts because i haven't kept any of these on for more than two days. It lasts two days without top coat with no signs of wear at all. 

All in all I'd buy more if they had more!

I want to say thank you to you guys because i wouldn't want to keep coming back if it wasn't for you'll. I'm so much more thankful than you'll ever guess. 


***EDIT:-the white polish is White Daisy from the Avon Simply Pretty Range!


I still haven't decided how i want to say bye.
