China Glaze Crackle: Crushed Candy Blue






I really love Crackle, in case you didn't know. I got all six of these on Amazon some time back- I put on American Apparel Neon Red and Crushed candy over it, really bright, amazing mani. I also Included some photos w/ Lighting Bolt (China Glaze's White Crackle). A girl stopped me at my job wearing the white and told me that OPI's white Shatter was terrible. I have heard mixed reviews BUT the China Glaze crackle rocks. As you can see, but of course, I get hundreds of chips after just one day. :(

American apparel limited edition:neon green





Alright so for the last few weeks i've been workin like a slave and studying like a fool(ha we all know my ass doesn't study.. unless you call drinking bud light lime as practicing spanish..). Today I had my final exam for my masters program this morning(thats right, I'm one step closers to putting "masters" under her achievements, along with largest nail polish collection, and the Guinness world records of hangovers) so I decided I would head over to American Apparel and buy three of the limited edition Neon colors. According to refinery29.com, they only shipped out like 2000 bottles or something, so I got overly excited. I bought Neon Green, Neon Red and Neon purple. Today I tried Neon green, and its awesome.
At first I put a base of white because the girl at the counter told me it would help to brighten up the color. Well the damn color blinded me temporarily, so I had to bathe myself in polish remover so I could regain sight. After I put on the green over a clear base and I must say its still bright, but awesome. In fact, its almost a tad bit sheer, unlike the other American apparel colors, where you'll only need one color. It kindof reminded me of OPI's texas sorbet finish, but these have a matte finish... if that made any sense. (I know it didn't)
Here are some photos of my nails, put on some shades cuz the bright ones have the white underneath, and the neat ones are from when i was sober without a white base.
