I forgot to edit this blog entry and it uploaded. I think in my delusion of Thanksgiving I thought I had already finished this entry. Unfortunately I did not. So here are the products of the week! By the way I purchased all of these at my local Ulta store.
Product #1
Golden Eye
Price: $8.50 USD
I loved both this color and Skyfall. They look similar but this one is more of a wine color, Skyfall is more of a true red color. I also used the matte nail polish on top of this to show the difference in colors. I was very impressed with the matte polish because it made the color matte for a few days however it did get shiney during the next few days. I was in love with the color, what a great fall/winter color! I loved this movie as well.
I love red nail polish! I own so many of them I need to make sure I am updated on them. This one has small pieces of glitter in it. I liked how pretty it was and looked really nice going on. Because of the Christmas season is upon us, I wanted to try to do a candy cane look. It wasn't nearly as easy as it looked on Pinterest but I had fun doing it. It took me several tries to get it like this and even this isn't that great. I was too impatient to get the white polish to dry that it was sitll tacky when I put the scotch tape on to use to make the lines for the red stripes. I'll try this look again and post a better photo. But I loved the red color, so pretty!
Product #5
China Glaze in White On White
Price: $7.50 USD
This is the white polish I used in the above photo with the color The Spy Who Loved Me. I havne't tried China Glaze before but I was impressed in how nice it went on. White polish tends to be either too thin or too thick. This was on the thin side but it it's a buildable color and also it wasn't too streaky when I used it on my nails.
Product #6
Maybeline Color Show White Porceline
Purchase at: Local Drug Store
Price: $2.49 USD
This nail polish was probably the WORST polish I have ever used. It was so streaky and also way too thin. I tried to build up the color a few times but it didn't do very well. I was happy with how cheap it was but it wasn't worth the money at all. I have a few more of these colors to try out maybe it's just because it's a white polish, we'll find out. But in the mean time, this product is going back to the store!
I am enjoying trying out new nail polish colors and designs. I'll be back with more nail colors as well as how I do the french tips with scotch tape!
Until nex time,

Product #1
Golden Eye
Price: $8.50 USD
This nail polish is very glittery and very gold. I like how gold it becomes when you add a second or third layer. It is difficult to clean off but the color is amazing. It really reminds me of the movie itself. I am very impressed with the O.P.I. line and I think this color is good alone or with another polish.
Product #2
Casino Royal
Price: $8.50 USD
I loved both this color and Skyfall. They look similar but this one is more of a wine color, Skyfall is more of a true red color. I also used the matte nail polish on top of this to show the difference in colors.

Product #3
Skyfall
Price: $8.50 USD
My co-worker suggested to use scotch tape instead of the nail guards you buy in the store. They worked out so much nicer and better! I was very impressed. You will have to reshape the tape, I'll do a whole blog on that with photos, to make the curve for your nails. Skyfall was an amazing movie, it was very long, but it was a great Bond movie. It had some great twist and turns but like many spy movies, you kind of figure things out after awhile. I did enjoy the movie and I loved this nail look too. It was so easy and fun to do.
Product #4
