China Glaze Eye Candy

So I was thinking about what to post next and I thought a review of the polishes that are in the giveaway would only be fitting.  The way this polish shimmers is amazing. They are like little treasure chests of gold, rubies, diamonds, sapphires, and rainbows. I had the hardest time getting the camera to focus on all of that glorious glitter. I think it was too much for my little camera to handle. No, not more shine, ahh, the sparkle is blinding me, can't...look...directly...at...it. (If you were wondering, that was my camera talking. I'm sorry, I have little kids and a big imagination.) All of these pictures had two coats of polish with almost perfect coverage and no top coat. If I were to do this as a complete manicure, I would probably use a coat of Gelous and a coat of Seche Vite to get rid of the rough texture.

Blonde Bombshell - Yellow-gold multi-sized glitter in a clear base.
Lorelei's Tiara - Silver and sapphire multi-sized glitter in a clear base.
Love Marilyn - Ruby red and silver multi-sized glitter in a clear base.
Some Like It Haute - Charcoal and holographic multi-sized glitter in a clear base.  

Well, I have a feeling a certain child of mine, who shall remain nameless, dropped my camera. The reason I suspect this crime is because of the loud oops and loud crack audible from across the room, and the now fuzzy pictures I have to show you. I used the camera for several days after the incident without issue, and then last week, all of my pictures are fuzzy despite lighting and location changes. I could just be paranoid, but compared what I am used to seeing on my computer, I was quite frustrated trying to work with the pictures I got. Well damn! Guess I will have to give in and buy either a new camera or buy a macro lens for my camera body. Hmmm... I wonder if "dropping" polishes and "denting or scratching" bottles of nail polish would constitute an acceptable reason, for my husband, for me to buy more polishes. Mwahahaha. My evil plans are forming as we speak. Come here child of mine, Momma needs some new polishes. :)

  1. These are pretty! I don't have any of these but the pics are gorgeous! And make sure you check your settings on the camera, it's possible when it was dropped things got changed!

    1. Well thank you! I did check the settings and nothing had changed, but the power button wiggles and feels like it is going to fall off. Oh well. No big deal. Thanks for the comment!
