Claire's nail polish haul
Aren't they preeeeeeeetty? It was so hard to choose just these four. I'm not going to have swatches until the middle of next week. I just cut down my nails because one broke down to the skin, so I'm a little ashamed of them. When they grow out in a couple days I'll take pics.

China Glaze swatches
Here are the swatches from my last China Glaze haul.
Pure Elegance: 3 coats. This color lasted 5 days with zero chips and almost no shrinking. Basically it looked at 5 days exactly how it looked when I first put it on.
For Audrey: 2 coats. Gorgeous cream color! I didn't think I'd like it so much but I love it. Unfortunately it started chipping the next day, I think because its so thick. Next time I'll add some thinner.
Blue Sparrow: 3 coats. Dark blue jelly with wanna be glitter. It dries matte so you need to wear a top coat with it. In this photo I did not because I was putting somethng else over it after taking pics. That said I LOVE this color. Normally I'm not into dark blues but this is great. Also I think its one of those colors that will leave your nails blue, and I know the glitter is going to be a wretch to take off.
I wanted to snaz For Audrey & Blue Sparrow up so I added some Pure Ice shimmer top coats over them. The first one is Oh Baby, not heartbreaker. I labled it wrong. The second photo is correctly labled though.

China Glaze & NYX np haul
For the entire month Sally's Beauty Supply store is having Buy 2 Get 1 Free on ALL nail polish brands, so I had to rush there this morning and pick out some pretties. I may go back at another time to get some other colors. Swatches to come soon.
I picked these up last weekend. South Sea & Mango Cafe. SS is GORGEOUS! Its a pearly pool blue with purple tones. MC is not as fab as I'd expected, but its still pretty.
