ManGlaze Fatty's Got More Blood

Fatty's Got More Blood was one of the ManGlazes I knew I had to have from the moment I saw swatches of it. And I absolutely love how fitting it is withManGlaze's gory/tough image!

This is three thin coats of Fatty's Got More Blood.





After adding a top coat, I realised that Fatty's Got More Blood has this subtle purple sheen to it.



I love how ManGlaze polishes always look so different with a top coat on. It's like two for the price of one!





After seeing the purple sheen, I had an idea of layering Max Factor Fantasy Fire over Fatty's Got More Blood. Boy, was that a good idea!

This picture shows the redder side of Fantasy Fire. 



Here's a macro shot of Fantasy Fire over Fatty's Got More Blood. I love how the red/amber/green shimmer fromFantasy Fire mixes with the purple/blue shimmer from Fatty! HELLO GORGEOUS!



Now we can see the warmer side of FF, with the red to amber shift.





And I'm ending things off with a picture of FF's amber to green shift.



Gorgeous, gorgeous, gorgeous. Perfect matte polish and a perfect topper! 'Nuff said.

March's Haul

I haven't exactly been a really good girl.

I know that.

But somehow, this addiction is not an easy one to kick, especially with so many enablers around.
So with that, I present to you March's Haul:







I'm absolutely in love with the entire Layla Hologram collection. Worth. Every. Single. Cent. Even though they're a bit sheer and require up to 3 coats to build up opacity, they are magnificantly holographic. They are sublime.

Where to buy: http://www.aveyou.com/



Here are the OPIs I picked up from the Holland and NYC Ballet collections. I got Red Lights Ahead...Where?, Roll In The Hague, I Have A Herring Problem, Pirouette My Whistle, Don't Touch My Tutu, My Pointe Exactly and Care to Danse. In case you're wondering, I bought all these OPIs from DYON International. They're always at *scape during the weekends so you can satisfy your OPI and China Glaze lemmings there!

Bought the first two because I wanted some bright colours and a proper orange, and how could I possibly resist the beauty that is I Have A Herring Problem?

As for the Ballet collection, I was so tempted to just grab the entire collection since I know I'd be using all the neutral shades once I start work this August, but with some help from my awesome polish buddies (HEY GIRLS!), they managed to convince me to only get 4 shades and save my wallet!







Moving to to theese gorgeous Ozotics that I purchased from Susan...these babies are to die for. The colour shift on these four bottles are CRAZY. Just take my work for it and order them. You will not regret it!





I'm so happy I finally got NOPI Khloe Has A Little Lam Lam! I must admit, Khloe is my favourite Kardashian. She's so inyerface and she's just one of those people you either love or hate and I LOVE her. I also got Rainbow in the Sky-lie cuz it's a pretty good dupe for Rainbow Connection and I figured it'd be good to have a "backup" just in case! The two NOPIs were purchased at Watsons.

I also got Stone Cold and Smoke and Ashes from the China Glaze Capitol collection, which were reviewed here. They're really pretty and I bought them from DYON when they were in NTU for a flea!!!!



And last buy not least, I bought OPI DS Diamond during Nailvibe's sale so I got a pretty good deal for it. As for Revlon's Whimsical, Gwen managed to work her magic and helped me to get a bottle. THANK YOU GWEN, IF YOU'RE READING THIS! And I think I saved the best for last, with Max Factor's Fantasy Fire! My friend managed to help me grab a bottle and I will be eternally grateful to her!

So yeah, that's it for March's Haul. I think I did pretty well in March! I didn't take too long typing out all the info so I think the haul was pretty contained! :D
