xoxoJen's swatch of Rimmel Night Life


Brand: Rimmel
Color: Night Life
Coats: 3
Application: A little thick, probably because its a fast dry. 3rd coat was to smooth out streakiness.
Finish: creamy with a coppery/gold flash
Base Coat: Seche Clear
Top Coat: Seche Vite
Wear: One week, not chips, slight tip wear or possibly shrinkage I can never be sure!
Purchased From: Ebay seller floridacosmetichouse (not sure I'd buy from them again. Slow shipping and no replies to my four messages - scarey transaction)
Comments: I love this color and its subtle shimmer.

Color Club Polish



Polish I got today at Ross for 5.50 total, on clearance. I couldn't believe it was so cheap for all of these. My experience with color club has been a good one so far, so I could not pass these beauties up!

Misc Polishes



The Milani was impossible to find here so a nail boarder found it for me and sent it. Its absolutely gorgeous!
Next, is colored after a Tiffany Jewelry box - free Nina color with purchase of the base coat I got. The silver and white are for an experiment and were buy one get one half off, and the base coat was necessary for my current mani of the Grin and Berry It polish. The teeny bottle came free with the base coat.
