I tried Wet n Wild Megalast for the first time and I loved it. It covered in one coat! Let's take a look:

Base: Wet n Wild Megalast - I Need a Refresh-Mint (1 coat)
Glitter: Sally Hansen Xtreme Wear - Disco Ball
Top Coat: Seche Vite

It has a little more green in it than the picture shows.

Go out and try this $2.00 nail polish!

Can you see a difference in the matte top coats?

I can't either.

Girly-Girl Challenge Day Five: Gotta Love Chick Flicks

I know I just posted a few minutes ago, but I can't contain my excitement over this challenge!

I have two favorite chick flicks, so I decided to do them both!

The first is Runaway Bride starring Julia Roberts and Richard Gere. She abandons a total of four grooms at the altar.

Black: Sally Hansen Xtreme Wear - Black Out
White: Sally Hansen Xtreme Wear - White On
Bride's Skin: Essence - Nude It!

Here are the four grooms and the bride! She's wearing pearls!

(Btw this essence gave me no trouble! It was great!)

The second movie, my all time favorite chick flick is While You Were Sleeping staring Sandra Bullock and Bill Pullman. There's a scene where they're slipping and falling on a big patch of ice. Here are my ice nails:

I layered four different coats of polish for this:

1 Franken - Angel Wings
1 ORLY - Twilight
1 China Glaze - Luxe and Lush
1 OPI - Glitter-ally The Best Silver Ever
