Thank you, youtube!

So I guess once I posted about my trouble with it, I finally stopped getting an error message. Hmmm, coincidence???

Who knows, but I'm just glad it worked :) Now, a few days ago I was at Walmart getting some groceries when I decided to check out the polishes to see if perhaps they had the Nicole Holiday polishes yet. Nope, they didn't. But I'm ashamed to admit that something new caught my eye and it was apparently the Justin Bieber Collection. Although, it said new, I don't know how long it's actually been available. But it looked pretty picked over. I was lucky enough that there was 1 of each color left behind. So I picked the ones I felt I couldn't live without (I can't believe they're $7 each! Sheesh) and left the rest behind. The 3 I ended up leaving with are One Less Lonely Glitter, OMB! and Me + Blue. OMB is probably my favorite being that it's a gorgeous red and could be a one coater!

Embarassingly, if they do restock, I'll probably pick up another OMB!. I know, please don't say it. LOL But believe me, this red is gorgeous! Although I'm not holding my breath. And I'm guessing some teenagers picked over the colors seeing as how only one of the bottles had that little tag with the picture of Justin Bieber on it. The others were plain. So I took the tag off the bottle I wanted and left it on another bottle for some teenage girl to admire.

Here are my swatches. Oh and also, I stopped by Ulta to check out the Holiday colors. Only 2 really called out to me and they were Spark My Mistletoe and Bring On The Tinsel. If I had known they were B1G1 1/2 off, I probably would have picked up the other 2 just for the sake of having them all. But the line was long and I wasn't getting out of line. Overall, I think it's worth it if you're wanting them. They're B1G1 1/2 off and there's a $3.50 off $10 purchase that you can print out right now. So I ended up paying $9.18 after tax for the 2 Holiday colors. Not bad, huh?

From L-R: One Less Lonely Glitter, OMB!, Me + Blue, Spark My Mistletoe over OMB!

One Less Lonely Glitter was 3 coats as it's just a glitter. It's really nice over black as well! I might do a full mani with that combo and post it soon. Both OMB! and Me + Blue were two coats and the combination on my pinky was 2 coats of Spark My Mistletoe over 1 coat of OMB!.

Here are a couple of videos. The first will be showing the polishes on my nails in sunlight and then indoors. Then the second video is just a quick one showing the bottles of Spark My Mistletoe and Me + Blue so you can see the holo glitter in it.



Well, that's it from me for today. Thanks for tuning in and I'll see you guys in a couple of days! Have a great night :)
