NOTD: Revlon Grape Icy (scented)

This is from Relvon's summer collection of scented colors. Grape Icy smells like a cherry icy to me, and its lasted over 3 days. Its an electric purple with a violet flash and pink and blue sparkles. I'm not a purple person but I love this color. Its 4 coats, but it was so easy and smooth to apply that I don't even care. It also wears quite well, after 3 days there is a tiny bit of tip wear but no chips. The first photo is the most color accurate.

NOTD: Milani Cyberspace

Another great Milani holo. Cyberspace is a bit more sheer than the other colors I have, this was 4 coats and it could have used another. The first photo is with the flash. The 2nd photo is in indoor light and its actually a brighter blue, not so pale silvery. In the sunlight it gets even brighter with a rainbow of holographic fine glitter.

NOTD: Milani Rad Purple + Pure Ice Heart Breaker

This combination of dark purple with turquoise sparkles is so cool. Unfortunately I didn't think of it myself, but that didn't stop me from shamelessly running out to buy Rad Purple this morning so I could copy it ($3.99 at Target). Of course Heart Breaker from Walmart can make almost any color amazing and costs just $2.00. If you don't already have it get it along with Oh Baby and Busted.

This is 4 coats of Rad Purple and 1 coat of Heart Breaker, pics taken in direct sunlight.

Some Misa swatches

All but First Kiss were just 2 coats. First Kiss is a shimmer, the rest are bright neons. These are very pigmented and apply quite well. I got them from head2toe.com for $3.00 each.




First Kiss


Lather, Rinse, Repeat, a bit less cool then this photo appears. Its light pink with a tiny bit of peach.


Sandles, Flip Flops, & Hip Hop, also a bit warmer then the photo shows, it almost has a touch of coral.


Bikini With A Martini, a bit brighter/more neon in person
