Sally Hansen Emerald City and Amour Rain Glitter Giveaways!!

I've heard quite a bit about Sally Hansen Emerald City. Yep, another green! I've heard it is extremely hard to find. Well some good news! Looks like Sally Hansen rereleased it with a bunch of other colors in a sort of old color revamp. I found it in Walgreen's in a display with a bunch of other polishes, all with new sort of titanium look caps, a black metallic look. I also found a couple with white tops. The metallized cap is mine, but YOU can have one of the white tops!

Just email me at polishmayhem@gmail.com with your name and ask to be entered in the drawing! I will hold it next Monday night!

But since this is another green and I had already had another contest in mind - this week we have a double giveaway!! I am also giving away a new bottle of Amour Rain Glitter thanks to my dear friend Rebecca! All you have to do is email me at polishmayhem@gmail.com and tell me YOUR favorite glitter, or why you don't wear glitter nail polish! My favorite response will win the bottle!! I will also announce the winner for this Monday, with the Emerald City winner.

This time the whole world can enter. So start those emails comin' and good luck!

Speaking of Glitter - Non-Holographic!

Let's talk pure glitter polishes. Not holographic, not jellies or cremes with glitter, pure glitter polishes. I really love glitter polishes. Though unless you use pure acetone, they take roughly 6.29 hours to remove! And even if you get them off quick with acetone the flecks love to nestle between my nail and skin, hiding down there for what feels like weeks. YES I do wash my hands! LOL! But those things are sticky!

The sad thing is the ratio of hotness to size is inverse, seems like the smaller the glitter, the more swoonworthy it is. Not talking flake "glitter", which I believe is mica (correct me if I am wrong), but "metallic" glitter. This may not be your feeling, but personally I like micro glitter, and I like it THICK. Clear polish with a smattering of glitter can be useful, but I like a solid, gleaming mass of glitter. Enough to blind.

I will of course post more about glitter in the future, this is just a selection.
