Polly Polish Polish Days!! A New Tried Mani

Good afternoon! So I haven't posted in Hannah of Polly Polish's Polish Days mass post in a while, and I almost forgot to today! But I got a quick picture in here at my internship site after hours (something else new I'm at!), and wanted to get in on a never-tried polish!

This is China Glaze Pull Me Close, a slate blue magnetic polish. I have tried magnetic before, but never this color and boy was I not disappointed! I did try a new technique holding the magnet, and got better results :-)

Peace!

I'm very sorry you can see where I might have bumped my pinkie with the magnet!

*EDIT* So I couldn't figure out how to add all the links to everyone's mani's. BUT I am including Polly Polish's link to her entry, and she has them all on her page :-)

One post after the other: Store Haul!

I've been talking on Facebook about all the polish I've bought since March began. Well, here's an idea of what I have thusfar:
Of just the China Glaze I bought, I have from left to right:
China Glaze Magnetix in Instant Chemistry and Cling On (plus magnet of course!), China Glaze Crackles in Oxidized Aqua and Latticed Lilac, It's Alive from the 2011 Halloween collection, two mini Ruby Pumps, and China Glaze base coat and fast-dry topcoat.

The rest is mainly Color Club, with a few others in between. From left to right there is: Savvy French White (plain white creme), mini Color Clubs Pretty in Platinum, Starry Temptress, Translucent, Wicked Sweet, Nouveau Vintage, and Fame and Fortune. Then there's Zoya Gemma, Sally Hansen Diamond Strength Pink Proposal, and Orly Twilight.

Someday I will start swatching my colors as I buy them (mayhaps on a color wheel? But for now I'm thinking my fingers, even if I do one finger). But for now, you at least see what my latest purchases have given me!

Now, for that Sally Beauty order to come in with THREE Hunger Games polishes, two crackles, and five sparkly fun China Glaze polishes (cannot WAIT for Dorothy Who? and Lubu Heels).

Magnetic Nail Polish FTW!!

So I finally got some magnetic nail polish! I know a lot of people say its just another fad like crackle, but frankly I will use crackle whenever I want, and after trying magnetic will feel the same way about it!

So I've had quite a few shopping trips this week, and have scored a little haul of my own which I will post about sometime in the near future (been pretty busy, went with my brother's school band to perform for senators yesterday, shopping the days before hehe). But this is probably one of my favorites. I got TWO China Glaze Magnetix polishes at Sally Beauty Supply, because if you bought one you got the magnet free! (which equates to a free polish, since the magnet costs the same as a polish!). I got "Instant Chemistry," a really pretty plum color, and "Cling On," a sage-y green. Here's Cling On:
(I guess I need to work on camera shots!). I used the diagonal line design from the magnet on my four fingers, and the star on my accent finger. Using the magnet takes time to get used to (you can almost watch it suck the polish in!), and I paint so fast to make sure it doesn't dry, I make a bit of a mess, so timing will take time as well. But overall, I am VERY happy with the Magnetix!
