Nubar Indigo Illusion

Hi everyone! I'm back in business. We finally reformatted my PC. It feels nice. Kind of like starting over.

Let's get to the polish, shall we?

Today I've got a stunning multi-chrome to share with you.

You can really see the green here!
And here the frosty purple is shining more.

Base coat: 1 coat of Trind base coat
Polish: 3 coats of Indigo Illusion
Top coat: 1 coat of Seche Vite

Indigo Illusion is a multi-chrome that shifts from a frosty purple, to a more grey-ed out purple, green and frosty grey with some gold in there somewhere. It's a really cool color!

It starts off a little sheer but you could get away with 2 coats if you wanted. I did 3 for maximum oomph!

The formula was nice enough to work with, I didn't encounter any problems.

Talk on Twitter is what inspired me to purchase this. Multi-chromes are my favorite finish and this one is highly praised by Scrangie, and we all know that her word is gospel in the nail polish world ;)
So I knew I had to get it and bought it on Ebay, it wasn't too expensive.

Thanks for stopping by!

This Week in Nail Polish

Greetings! I hope everyone is doing ok! Let's see what I added to my collection this week...


Close-up of Sticks 'n Stones

Left to right: Sinful Colors Neon Melon, Summer Peach
Nabi Magnetic Polish Forest Green (doesn't have a name so I gave it one)
Cover Band Lacquers Sticks 'n Stones

Not some bad loot, if I say so myself. I picked up the two Sinful Colors from Walgreens. They were on sale for 99 cents. I also found the Nabi polish there too. That was really surprising cause the Walgreens in this town is crap!

And I ordered Sticks 'n Stones from Ninja Polish. It's so pretty! I'm looking forward to layering this over different colors.

Onto the cats!




That first picture is an older one of Lillith. She was a pound heavier then and had her winter coat. So she looks a lot chunkier. Ain't she a doll?!

And then there's Penelope doing what she's known for doing...getting in the way of homework >_<
No, really. Like most cats, she loves laying on open books when I'm reading.

Here's an older manicure:


This is Sally Hansen Turquoise Opal. Basically, my number one favorite polish ever. It is a STUNNING multi-chrome. It shifts from different shades of purple, blue, green and teal. It's insane. And in person it's about a million times better too. I know I layered this over black when I wore it. Paid a ridiculous amount on Ebay for it too. To date, this is the most I've ever payed for one bottle of polish. 22 bucks plus 7 for shipping from Canada. Crazy but totally worth it.

Nail news:
I had to cut my nails down last night. My new job is tough on my hands and nails and they were just getting in the way and I don't want to worry about breaking them. They were already starting to chip in some places. It's been hell on my manicures too. Honestly, it sucks...but eh...what're you gonna do...it's nubbins for me :(

Anyway, thanks for stopping by!
