Icing - Tiger's Blood

I'll admit it. When I was younger I loved Claire's and Icing. It was always one of my favorite stores. And Bath & Body Works when they had that young kid section with their little club. Anyways, I never really payed attention to their cosmetics, and once I got into nail polish I didn't even realize that they had any. But now I know that they do! And they make some pretty awesome polishes (and dupes of higher end brands) and I'll definitely be there again. This is my first Icing polish, Tiger's Blood. They released a small collection based on things that Charlie Sheen said during his crazy ordeal. But that's ok, it made for some great polish!

What an awesome coral-y jelly packed with glitter! I didn't expect to love it this much. This is also supposed to be a dupe of Cult Nails Captivated, but I cannot say for sure because I don't have that one. Icing still has this in their stores, I saw it there the last time I went in.

Wet n Wild - Blazed

Hooray February 29th! Happy birthday to those of you born on this glorious and rare day! Here's just a quick post. While perusing Walgreens for the millionth time in the past week (due to their Sinful Colors sale - 99 cent polish, baby!) I decided to get this color. I've been drawn to pink-y colors lately, and cremes on top of that. So when I saw this coral/peach/pink polish I figured why not? It was only a dollar.

I was worried that it would be too warm for my skin tone, but I actually liked it. This is 2 coats, the formula was sheer at first, but opaque after the second coat. I don't like these brushes though, they're really long and thin. But I can deal with it for a pretty color! This color is a creme, but it is very close to being a jelly. Look how shiny and squishy it is without a topcoat! Reminds me of candy. Yum.
