This polish release date is late October or early November but I found the whole Burlesque collection at my local beauty supply. -angels singing- I had decided I wanted this one before I saw it in person, and I picked up another one called Show It and Glow It, its more pink/fucshia colored glitter like this one. I absolutely love it and have worn it all week. Very little tipwear and no chips. Wearing like iron!

I've been slacking on mani photo uploading. this one's a week late because I've been working 12 hour days. I'm exhausted when I get home and just couldn't bring myself to edit and upload the photo I took last Sunday, til now. So exhausted, and its time for me to find some dinner! (yep at 9pm, ugh)

Oh and bye bye long nails, hello nubbins! I cut them because they were just getting too long to type with. I think I cut them a bit shorter than usual so now I'm letting them grow out again. xD
