CONTEST WINNER!!!! Let the Second Half Begin!!

Congratulations to April Brooks who won the first half of the contest. She correctly guessed that the polishes are:

Diamond Oh, Tiff
China Glaze For Audrey
Essie Greenport
Nina Ultra Pro In a Tiff

Well done and congratulations to April! April wins a new bottle of China Glaze For Audrey!

The second half of the contest is the first person who correctly tells me the ORDER in which I am wearing them, Right to left, Pinkie to Index! Shhh, April! :D

Contest!!! Guess the Polishes!!!

UPDATE FOR CLARITY!!!:
This is FOUR different polishes, and I am not, sorry, going to tell you which ones you get right (or wrong) when you guess. But you can guess as many times as you want!!


Okay I promised this contest earlier but with my Anatomy final, my laziness, the Zoya tweet freebie madness taking up everyone's attention, etc., I did not get to it.

This contest is very simple. Look at the picture posted below and be the first to tell me what nail polishes I am wearing!! The FIRST PERSON who emails me the right answer to polishmayhem@gmail.com (determined by time stamp on the email) gets a brand new unused bottle of one of the polishes pictured, my choice. Anyone anywhere may enter this contest!!

Then we will have a second half to this contest in which a second bottle will be given away! So don't give up!!

If no one gets the first half of this contest right, in two days I will post a second clue picture. So guess away!!

China Glaze for Days! - China Glaze Dripping Wet

Dripping Wet is a beautiful sort of merlot wine color. It's a deep red jelly with a hint of purple, and vampy as all hell. It has a beautiful translucent feeling. And a name that brings me right down into the gutter.

China Glaze for Days! - China Glaze Blue Island Iced Tea

China Glaze Blue Island Iced Tea doesn't remind me of iced tea or a boozy drink, it reminds me of a cool afternoon on a sailboat, with the waves glinting and shimmering. Pretty certain this is a glass fleck polish, and as such, one of the most beautiful polishes around!

China Glaze for Days! - China Glaze Cherry Crystal

A deep dusty cherry red, with somehow a hint of purple, and a nice sleek shimmer. An overlooked beauty!

China Glaze for Days! - China Glaze Raggae to Riches

Fuchsia pink, Purple shimmer. What else do you need to know??

China Glaze for Days! - China Glaze Flying Dragon

China Glaze Flying Dragon is absolutely in my top ten polishes of all time. Whenever I wear it I spend an inordinate amount of time admiring my nails. It's mesmerizing. I love the shade of purple, the fine grain red and blue glitter, I love all of it. China Glaze bills this as a neon I am pretty sure, and it does dry matte like many neons. Mine's a bit watery, so I keep my brush lightly loaded.

China Glaze for Days! - China Glaze Dusk

Dusk is a smoky purple creme with the barest hint of shimmer. Kind of an eggplant color!

China Glaze for Days! - China Glaze Eyes Like Sapphires

Eyes Like Sapphires - beautiful azure blue frost with added large grain shimmer. Kinda like stars coming out at dusk.

China Glaze for Days! - For Audrey

We all know and love that Tiffany-box blue right? Who couldn't love it? Sometimes the creme formula can be thick, so thin it down with a few drops of thinner and it works beautifully. And it will look cool and feminine and yet totally stylish.

China Glaze for Days! - China Glaze Golden Enchantment

Golden Enchantment is a gold "rainbow" microfine glitter which you could wear alone but I would probably wear as a layered topcoat. I don't think this is what you could call holographic glitter. I like to personally define holographic glitter as having a curved rainbow on the nail that is cohesive, shared among the grains of glitter. Rainbow glitter, to me, flashes all colors of the spectrum, but no matter how much of it you have it does not have that shared whole nail rainbow effect.

Anyway now that I have been pedantic, enjoy Golden Enchantment.

China Glaze for Days! - China Glaze Chroma-toes

Okay this is not a good color for me, silvers look awful with my skin. It's a great easy to apply formula unlike many metallics this shiny, and it glows with light.

Nail of the Day! - NYC Pink Quartz

I picked this up in a display of new polishes. I like it. It's a dusty rose, and I know it looks like a frost but it's really more of a very, very heavy shimmer. Whatever it is I like it! It was a display of stuff that was called something or other about Pink. Yeah, I'm a great help, huh.

China Glaze for Days! - China Glaze Caribbean Temptation

It's a hot summer day, why not look at some hot summer nail polish? China Glaze Caribbean Tamptation is a bright fuchsia with purple shimmer. Fun!

China Glaze for Days! China Glaze In the Lime Light

In honor of China Glaze joining Twitter, it's China Glaze for Days this month! China Glaze is, as I have said, probably my very favorite brand. It has so many colors, so many types of lovely cremes, jellies, glitters, shimmers, and my beloved, magnificent glass fleck polishes! So let's enjoy some China Glaze this month!

Let's start with my absolute favorite green neon, In the Lime Light. Easy to apply, and I swear it's got glass fleck in it. best of all, it's opaque!
