What's cuter than tiny snowmen heads??????

I found these little cuties at Rite Aid in Philadelphia. I am such a sucker for novelty polishes, and even though my thought as I was grabbing these was....these are going to be a pita to store in my telmer, I must get  them. They don't have individual names, but the formula was great on these. The only downside.....the brushes were AWFUL! They were just wonky and too big. Now I love the big brushes, but these were just silly.

Here are the 6 that I got. I did pick up a 7th, like 2 weeks later, but I haven't had a chance to swatch it yet. There are tons out there though. A few just didn't appeal to me even a little.







This had a tiny bit of holo, but it was hard to capture. You can kind of see it in the bottle




This 1st pic of the light pink is color accurate, the 2nd, I had the flash on




Do you see all that crazy holoness!!!




This was way prettier in person. For some odd reason, when I am taking pictures of really glittery reds, my camera and I end up fighting.

Just a few L.A. Girls polish swatches..

 I shop on Forever 21's site for clothes a lot, and decided to pick up some polishes that they had on there. Oh and I must say, the way they named the polishes is uber boring. No real names, just color descriptions.
So here are the L.A. Girls I got

This one is from the Matte collection and it's just called Hot Pink. I love this!!




















Lavander - Since this was soooo sheer, I layered it over black
















Bronze



















Pink Steel

















Iron Red


and my fave from the group. It wasn't labeled, but I asked MUA, and they all said it was called Groupie. You can kind os see the purple flashes in the picture, but trust me, It's much more obvious IRL!

MAC Bad Fairy

So by now, I'm sure we have all heard the craze and frustrations with trying to obtain this polish. Many woman I know, had their orders cancelled, even though they placed them less than 10 minutes after it launched. It is crazy and MAC should def have knew the demand would be high, and produced more.
Unfortunately eBay scalpers have also been to blame. Such a shame. Well, I got this Monday night, and couldn't wait to try it. So after finishing my 3rd grade homework, I swear parents these days, get more than the kids, lol, I swatched it, and took about a billion pictures. I have to be honest, it is pretty, but I'm just not a huge fan, and kind of wish I passed on this. It is very foily, and has some great colors in it, from pink, orange & gold. I'm no sure what I was expecting, just more I guess. A fellow MUAer suggested I try it outside, because she too didn't like it so much inside, but when she got into her car, she loved it. So I might give it another go, when I have some errands to run.
