I was arranging my China Glaze polishes at some point and decided to do a quick comparison of these purple polishes. I have two bottles of LOL that were purchased at the same time and place, but they look different in the bottle and I had never properly compared them on the nail. They look the same despite the bottle differences - which is good. Unfortunately I still haven't worn any of these for an actual manicure. So many bottles of nail polish, so little time!

As I must do every so often, I reached into some of my aging collection and pulled this one out to wear. Then I decided to try out some layered stamping and finished it off with some messy freehand lines.

Bla is an absolute beauty. It reminds me of the color of No. 2 pencils ✏️ when I was in grade school. I think Sally Hansen and Sinful Colors both did something similar but both were limited edition shades. So if you missed out on Sally Hansen Man-Go Team! Or Sinful Colors - Anchors Away, head over to OOO polish and get this!

Old manicure using the aforementioned Sally Hansen and Sinful Colors polishes:

Nothing too exciting here. It actually was quite a bright pink, but not as opaque as I expected.

Playing Catch-up

I'm back! Yes, it's been just over a year since my last post - and those last posts were just of swatches I'd had sitting in an old folder.  I still have some of those, but I really miss being able to use my blog to peruse my old manicures for inspiration or to check on whether I've worn a certain polish before. Instagram doesn't help with that, unfortunately - at least not the way I use it. So, I'm going to attempt editing and posting everything that I've worn since... oh my, I think the fall of 2019! Here goes...
