NAIL MAIL and STASH ADDITIONS: Swap Package From My Friend Hazel and a Mini-Swap With My Friend Erin

Check out this amazing swap package I got today from my friend Hazel. 

She definitely crossed quite a few polishes off my wishlist. Thanks!!! 

Mmmm....I love Mexican Candy! 

Look at all my new polish babies! 

I love Christmas polishes. 

My very first Chanel. I will be posting swatches of this as soon as I change my polish. 

And here's a little swap I did in person with a friend of mine. 

So what do you think of my stash additions? Do you have any of these polishes?

My SURPRISE Birthday Nail Mail from Gina

My good friend Gina from Red Dog Designs sent me some awesome birthday polish presents!!! 

Check out all the wonderful things she sent! 

I LOVE the wrapping paper by the way. 

Check out these awesome polishes she sent me! She knows me all too well. 

Gina made me this custom designed polish. It's name "Lady is a Tramp" is an awesome Frank Sinatra song from back in the day. I'm Italian, so I think it goes without saying that I'm a Sinatra fan. Also, Gina designed this polish with my two favorite colors in mind: RED AND GOLD!!!! 

I will be posting swatches of this polish very soon. I want to try this over a brown creme to bring out the Fall essence of this polish. 

Love the tag on the bottom. It's my one of a kind polish. :)

This polish was on my wishlist for quite sometime. I wanted a good linear holo. 

Haha...they said "sex". 

Here's another color that has been on my WISHLIST forever and a day. 

This polish is a fantastic one-coat purple creme. I love Color Club polishes! I have only recently began noticing them in stores near me.

And of course Gina, being the thoughtful person she is, knows I obsessively collect Hard Candy polishes. So she added this cute mini to my stash.

So what do you think of my birthday gift? How awesome is Gina??!!! 

There's no such thing as TOO MUCH GLITTER: swap with Hazel and stash additions from eBay

I did a swap with my friend Hazel from Haze Glaze. She hooked me up with these lovelies. 

China Glaze Raggae to Riches

Julep Maya

Color Club Beyond The Mistletoe 

a 7 piece glitter collection released in 2011 

These are my first bottles of Color Club and I love them! The formula is awesome and covers well. 

2 coats- China Glaze Reggae to Riches

2 coats- Julep Maya 
I wore this around on my nubbliest of nubbies and it actually looked...good.
I won't wear loud colors when my nails are short. Not sure why. I guess I'm self conscious of my nubbies. Anyway, This covers well. No dragging. And although the application was a little streaky, it had a really nice finish that complimented my skin tone well. 

2 coats- Color Club Holiday Splendor

2 coats- Color Club Sugarplum Fairy

2 coats- Color Club Holiday Splendor

2 coats- Color Club Gingerbread

2 coats- Color Club Candy Cane

2 coats- Color Club Jingle Jangle

 Here is my lovely collection of Julep polishes. I love these! I try to pick up as many as I can. 

China Glaze is one of my favorite brands. Hands down. Here is my collection of them. 

I got to cross these polishes off my WISHLIST over the weekend. I won these on eBay. 

Fantasy Makers Black Pearl

Revlon Colada Fizz

Revlon Apple-tini Fizz

2 coats of each

 My Sweetly Seductive Fizz collection is nearly complete. The only one I need is Mint Fizz, and I was offered it in a swap. So I'll have it very soon. Thanks Gina :)

I recently posted that I needed 2 more of these WnW tombstones, but I was mistaken. I do believe the only one I need is the bar glitter Black Magic. Lucky for me, that one was also offered to me in a swap. Yay! So   I will finally have these collections complete.
