Recently I was lucky enough to come across Revlon Girlie during my mini haul at Rite Aid and I just couldn't resist scooping it up. Let me tell you, boy am I glad that I did! It is definitely deserving of it's name, this polish is such a pretty light purple and so packed with glitter to boot. I'll let the picture speak for itself.
Now I know I told you I'd let the picture speak for itself, but I just can't resist saying a few words on its behalf. Revlon Girly is like an amazing jelly sandwich in a bottle.
For those that are not familiar with this term, in the wide world of nail polish, a jelly sandwich is a fun manicure style that consists of a layer of sheer polish, then a layer of sparkly glitter, and then another layer of sheer polish to top it off. If you're looking for all of the jelly sandwich results with none of the homemade jelly sandwich work, here it is!
My quick stop at Rite Aid last night resulted in this fantastic mini Revlon haul!
Right now, Rite Aid is running a sale with coupon which made each of these beauties only $2.50, so if you have a Rite Aid near you, RUN! I got lucky and found full stock, including the much loved Whimsical at the store near me. Be sure to grab the sales ad by the door, you will need the paper coupon!
I scooped up Girly, Sparkling, Scandalous and Radiant, stay tuned for the swatches!
Gorgeously Green
Day 4, here we are with green. Today's color is a bit bitter-sweet for me... I'll start with the sweet part. Sweet because it just happens to be my absolute favorite color, and also one of my wedding colors! I laboriously worked to pick out the perfect polish in the exact shade of green that I adore to show you today, and came up with Revlon's Posh.
Now for the bitter part of today's challenge. In my excitement, I for some reason opened the bottle like an angry gorilla eating a banana after a week long fast and splattered polish all over my favorite white blanket... what sadness. How could I be betrayed by something I love so much? Nooooooo! I'll never look at you the same, wonderful green polish, never.
On the upside, I was able to get some great daylight shots that really show the true color of this polish. If you're in need of a good green, consider Posh.

Could we have a moment of silence for this wonderful blanket that sacrificed perfection for this manicure to be possible? <Insert silence here>
R.I.P white blanket. You served me well.
