Here is another polish form my latest bargain haul... Maybelline 'Matte Red'. this is a very pretty color and looked beautiful matte and with a shiny TC. It dried super-duper fast. These matte's I have found dry so fast and the brush handle is so thick that make my polish has a lumpy application. But they are very pretty and only 1-2 dollars. The China Glaze 'Fast Forward ' top coat is really good, it really does dry fast ( did not think it would) and is really, really shiny.
It is Saturday night and I am ready for some chips & dip and hangin out with my DH... Have a great weekend!

I have used CG 'Sexy in the City' as a prop, because I have not done a Mani with it yet..... so this is a little reminder to get on it.... I really wanted this one, too. yet it sits in my little area of 'un-worns'( shame on me )
~ These next photo is with 1 coat of China Glaze 'Fast Forward' Top Coat in the sun ~

That matte is fantastic! I would scream if I ever found that, right in the store :) I love the old Maybelline mattes and am always looking for more. Thanks for sharing. It's so pretty matte but you're right, beautiful with the top coat also.
ReplyDeleteI agree with Mary this is amazing! If I found this at the store I would just die from Happiness!
ReplyDeleteCool color! I also like the storage idea,using the tomatoe crates!
ReplyDeleteThose mattes you got are awesome, They are so unique and have such a pretty colors ! This red is totally cool, I really like its shade.
ReplyDeleteWow, really really like this red, looks amazing.
ReplyDeleteThank you for the lovely comments everyone. My camera battery faded just as I finished my outside pictures, so I only got 1 indoor picture, and that is not a good representation of the 'real' color (but still very pretty).
ReplyDeleteI have only found 2 mattes at that rad store in my town, the other one is a little on the pink side and I will be wearing & blogging in a week or so.
Mary ~ I always freak out when I find stuff like this... in this case when i found this polish display, I was standing there shaking up dozens of old bottles an holding them up to the light.....they actually sent a cashier over to check me out.. I guess I looked shady? We ended up talking and she told me about when stuff comes in etc... so I know when to be waiting for my next big SCORE!
The funny thing about this polish, is I really only bought it for the matte factor, but I am happy with this now - I loved the color when I put it on, and when I added the shiny TC ..... I cant stop staring at it.....
I am sorry I added the TC because I need more indoor pic's - but I am doing a trial & testng of how well this China Glaze TC holds up.
Kitty ~ finding that polish stash at the store made my week! I am sad they will soon be sold out!
Velvet ~ I have seriously gone through like 4 different types of storage things all ready..... so until I get my HELMER I am a happy girl with this. I know it looks really, really, home made but it is serving me well!
tuli ~ I did'nt think matte red would look cool or pretty, I just bought it 'because'..... now I think it is soooo cool and is unique pretty red color
clockwork ~ Thanks, it really is very pretty I wish I found more.... But that's my problem... I keep buying... at least they are in-expensive!
This is SUCH a pretty color! I will have to keep my eye out, there's always stuff like that hanging around Walmart and KMart, maybe I'll come across it. My next project is trying to work out a storage like one you detailed in the last post - that would be so handy for me.
ReplyDeleteYou know, I looked at that Sexy In the City last time I was at Sally's - I think I'm gonna get it!
I so want this Red and also there's an olive matte. They are such gorgeous colors. You have beautiful nails.
ReplyDeleteI love the last few pics with the top coat - you know how I love my shiny!!
