Day 3 of 31

Today's challenge is to wear Yellow, if i hate orange idk what word to say how much i hate yellow, LOL i always sit here and look at how other bloggers wear yellow & it looks so freaken dam cute on them .However when i wear it ,it just doesnt work. :( no yellow ..EVER has made me happy.. here im wearing Essence-Mellow Yellow.. it was really tricky to work with, the formula was real thick & this brush in my bottle was uneven, i think it was just this bottle though because i own a few of the Essence & i never have complains...without further do here it is :)


















whats your least favorite color to wear?! this was a real challenge for me to wear all day but i got through it & im glad its gone . LOL

OPI-Pink Shatter VS China Glaze Broken Hearted

12 Midnight & here i am .. Blogging. .... i had 3 cups of coffee earlier so im wide awake & full of energy LOL

A few post back i showed you OPI-Pink Shatter & i knew i wanted to compare it to China Glaze Crackle- Broken Hearted & i used white as my base color & let me tell u i was ready to hit someone! . LOL my camera was just on a mission to make them look the same..when their not ! . anywho, few nights later ..here i am messing with them on my nail wheel. .. i used China Glaze For Audrey As My Base :
Left: China Glaze-Broken Heart /Right: OPI -Pink Shatter

As you can tell their both very different & i did notice that OPI shatter is more of a shimmer pink.. on my previous post i was so convinced it was a neon pink, however i think it changes when u use a more deeper base color. & Broken Hearted is Pink and nothing else to it .LOL
i do recommend grabbing OPI Pink Shatter if you already own Broken Hearted . their both very different & very pretty.

& there you have it.!

i also just got nail mail & its a bottle i've had my eye on it for a LONG time... i wont do a full swatch since i do plan on using it on a Challenge i'll tell you more about tomorrow .. but for fun.. can u guess what nail polish im wearing?!

OPI-Pink Shatter

Hello Everyone!

I hope everyone had a great weekend. Mine was just PURRFECT . My bf came to visit from Las Vegas & i had such a great time with him eating,shopping & cuddling . which only made it harder to say good bye today :( sure he'll be back in 3 weeks. but DAM those 3 weeks take ages to get here :( . .. Did you girls do anything special this weekend?!

Today i have OPI Pink Shatter .. i was really eager to come home to try it & here it is :D

The bottle is so awesome. Why? look at the handle. all of OPI shatter are black caps with silver shatter but this one is pink with black :D

As you know by now this limited edition pink shatter is to raise breast cancer awareness & im super happy their donating 25,000 dollars to Komen for the Cure.


On the bottle the color looks more like a coral/red/orange however when you apply it it surprises you & gives you a pink neon look.! i was shocked and very happy :D the nails match the cap of the bottle.. to be exact :)

i love this shatter & as much as i say im sick of shatter.. i keep going back to them. i did compare both OPI Pink Shatter & China Glaze Crackle Broken Hearted but my OTTLite kept insisting on making them look alike. when in person their really quiet different. Broken Heart is more of a deeper pink crackle & OPI is a neon pink. dont worry i'll do comparisons with sunlight soon :)

what do you girls think.. will you be grabbing this nail polish to support breast cancer awareness..? do you like the color of this shatter!?

let me know!!
