This is another one from the pack of unnamed LA Colors I bought a few weeks ago. I liked how this one turned out. It's a nice rich teal.

Unnamed LA Colors Swatch - Puke Green

I got this little bottle in the multi-pack of unnamed LA Colors. It is GROSS. I will never insult my fingers by putting this color on them ever again! It looks like someone ate pea soup and then threw it up on my fingers. I removed this immediately!!

China Glaze No Plain Jane

This little gem is from the new China Glaze Bohemian Collection. This is No Plain Jane. I've said before that this collection is hard to photograph and that is true of this one. It has golds, purples, browns, and greens all hidden somewhere in it.

China Glaze Unpredictable Swatch

I am in love with the China Glaze Bohemian Collection. Each color is gorgeous! This is Unpredictable. It goes from green to gold to blue. It's memorizing! But...also really hard to capture on camera. Here's my best effort. :)

China Glaze Bohemian Collection and swatch of Swanky Silk

As soon as I saw the promos for this collection, I knew I had to buy them! Online, I almost only bought 4 of the 6 and then figured "what the heck" and bought them all. I am SO glad I did. The pictures online (including mine!) DO NOT do these colors justice. You should take my word for it and buy them OR you should run to your local store and check them out in person. There are amazingly beautiful. They are the kind of colors where you can't stop staring at your nails and when your eye catches your nails, you can't help but smile. Isn't that what mani's are all about??

And...here is the first swatch. This is Swanky Silk. It goes from gold, to green, to purple. Nearly impossible to photograph! It's very neutral and does not make a big statement.

Sally Hansen the Real Teal and Silver Crackle

Here is a swatch of Sally Hansen the Real Teal. I really liked the silver tips I did earlier in the week so I decided to do it again with a Sally Hansen Silver Crackle. This time, I used Orly Dazzle to do the french tips.
