I'm dusting off the archives and showing you a manicure that I loved wearing!
Revlon "Emerald City", 2 coats
The light green shimmer is strong enough in Emerald City that it is visible without topcoat. Very pretty. Application was a breeze, no problems. After a few hours though, I couldn't leave well enough alone and decided to glitter-fy my mani.
Emerald City with ACO "Day N Night", 1 coat
This sparkled SO NICELY. I was very happy. Even Mr. Polish commented on it; not once, not twice, but multiple times. I was a happy lady!
Question: do you separate your un-trieds from your polish collection or keep them all together? My polish collection went from approximately 11 polishes to 983 (as of today) in about a year and a half. Needless to say, I have only worn about 20% of my collection and am constantly trying to figure out different ways to store my polishes. Untrieds/tried. Brand. Color. A combination?
I need help!!!
Haha... not that kind.
Have a fantastic day and thank you for reading. :)
Very pretty! I organize my polishes by brand. I like having the same bottle shapes next to each other.
ReplyDeleteThank you! That is how I currently have my polishes stored as well and for the same reason. Thank you for your input!
DeleteOoh, love this one! I haven't gotten around to trying it out yet, but I should. It's perfect for the holidays.
ReplyDeleteIt is definitely perfect for the holidays. :)
DeleteI currently store my nail polish by brand, but I think I might start storing them by worn/unworn because my collection is growing rapidly and I find myself not using most of my new polish. I think it will be a better way to rotate my polishes and make uses of all of my colours better.
ReplyDeleteYes, absolutely! Sometimes I forget the little treasures I have when they are stashed away. My only trouble with worn/unworn is my unworn polish count is around 780... LOL!
DeleteSo very pretty!! I love the combination of the two!
ReplyDeleteThanks, me too! :)
DeleteI just picked this up and have not tried it yet, I was thinking about including it in a Christmas giveaway but now that I see it swatched I don't know if I can part with it!!
ReplyDeleteNot that my polishes are too 'organized' but I always leave my unused polishes in a special box in my china cabinet (yes in my kitchen lol!!) But like you I have been buying a lot of polishes in the last while and it's getting a little crowded!!
DON'T PART WITH IT. Haha. :)
DeleteI could only WISH that my untrieds could fit into a china cabinet!
I don't categorize polishes well. Good idea though.
ReplyDeleteEmerald is a GORGEOUS color!
Thank you!
DeleteWow, the texture on Emerald City is amazing! It looks so pretty with the glittering topper too. :D
ReplyDeleteI do keep my untrieds separated so that I'll at least try to reach for them first. I still haven't *quite* filled up my first Helmer, but by the time I get through half that untried box it'll be well overflowing. >_<
No way!! Emerald City is sooo pretty!! :O
ReplyDeleteI absolutely love this! It looks so pretty! I keep all of mine together but since my collection isn't as big it's not too hard for me to figure out what I've tried ahaa. I store all of mine on a rack that I made. I'm so pleased with it haha!
ReplyDeleteThank you! I loved that mani. You should do a blog post and show your polish collection! :)
