TOTALLY RANDOM SUNDAY #8

HAULS

An old purchase and a very recent swap, both from US!
OLD US PURCHASE

From a very old order in... Last July, I guess, when a friend of mine went to US for a trip and I received the polishes in October. But I noticed to have forgotten to show you three more beauties, sorry my pressSSssciousses! I'm speaking with the polishes, of course... XD

- China Glaze - Meteor Shower

One of the first items in my wishlist EVER! Ok, I know it's an old kind of "fat" and rough glitters, and there are a lot of blue glitters better than this out there, but I was fond of it for a long time and I couldnt' leave it alone.

- Color Club - Wild and Willing

Another old old old wishlist item! I like owning multitasking polishes: this one is pretty alone with its golden copper finish, and is stunning layered over a dark base, because it pulls out a duochrome effect!

- Sinful Colors - Call you Later

Another multipurpose polish: flashy alone and useful to renew if you apply over another polish (I advice any kind of dark green), with a lot of green, yellow and gold round glitters of different sizes.

A SWAP WITH JULIA

It passed a lot of time since I've made my last swap on Makeup Alley, because I'm shamefully slow about purchase and reply to emails and sending the packages. But I can't say no to people who ask me about swapping, even with my timing. Sorry Julia, but we've made it, at last! ☺

- Barielle - Elle's Spell

Lovely lovely ooooh so lovely! A jelly cherry base with multichrome flakies that go from red to yellow to green. 

- OPI - DS Illuminate

OPI is one of those brands that are not so clear about their cruelty-free policy. OPI is, but Coty, that own the brand, isn't, so a small part of money you give to OPI goes to Coty, too. For this reason I don't buy OPI anymore, but I'll accept swaps of used bottles. No more money for Coty, one more polish for me. :) This one is amazing, I saw it from a friend of mine and I instantly fell in love with it. Beautiful. Just beautiful. Beige/brown with holo microglitters and a slight duochrome effect that goes on green.

- Sinful Colors - 24/7

This is a gift from the swapper! Not my tipe of color, absolutely, buuuuut I was thinking for months to buy few neon colors for nail arts, so this one is perfect for what i was thinking for! :D

- Sinful Colors - Hottie

Another extra polish for me! *__* This one is sooooo pretty! When I go to COIN I always stare at it and I can't decide if buy it or not, so this gift take away any doubt from me, yay! :D It's sheer but I love its delicate jelly base and the holo medium size glitters in pastels. Enchanting.

Last, but no least, a polish necklace painted with Color Club - Fashion Addict. No words. Thank you Julia, thank you very much!!! *^___^*
