Part 1 of my US haul

So I've decided to move my nail posts over here since it's a big feature in my life and somehow I think my nail art deserves a blog of its own. This will be my little space on the Internet to talk about all things nail polish related.

If you have been following our old blog, you'll know that it is hard for me to get my hands on any decent nail polish so obviously I was ecstatic when I went to the US for a brief holiday. I shamelessly hauled back more than 20 bottles of nail polish. I would have swept the shelves clean but with the luggage limit and other stuff that I'd bought, I didn't want to have to pay for extra baggage (these bottles are heavy!)

Here are some of the goodies that I brought back. I'm only going to be showing the bottles even though I've swatched all of these because I haven't loaded all the pictures yet.

Orly - Charged Up

China Glaze - Fairy Dust

Orly - Liquid Vinyl

Essie - Naughty Nautical

My first few bottles of Essie are in this haul and I don't regret spending $7.79 on each bottle. The formula for the colors that I bought are amazing.

I'm wearing Naughty Nautical in all the pictures and I LOVE it so much! I'm so glad I saw the swatches of this and read the good reviews about it. I saw it in Target and snagged it without thinking.

China Glaze - Salsa

Orly - Snowcone

China Glaze - Strawberry Fields

China Glaze - Turned Up Turquoise

I already have one bottle at home but it's one of my favorite colors and I'd been using it a lot so I had to get a spare. It really doesn't look that green on the nail but this is what it looks like with flash.

China Glaze - White on White

So far I don't regret a single color that I've bought here. China Glaze - White on White is a great base for neon colors or just about any color. I guess my only regret is not getting another bottle of this. Argh, I don't know when I'll be back in the US :S

I have so much that I want to do with this blog so bear with me while I fiddle with it and get it to the way I want.
