A RAINBOW OF ICING

Last night I took a look in my untrieds box and I realized I have so much stuff in there that I haven't tried!! I have polishes that I have not tried out yet from the wonderful Tuli, Deez Nailz, Helen and Polish Pixie!! What am I doing with all these untrieds??!!



So I decided I would try out some of the older polishes I had in the bin, some Icing's from my Vegas trip a couple of months ago. These colors look like a rainbow together, very pretty! Since I don't particularly like just swatching colors since it is so time consuming and not to mention a waste of nail polish, I only painted one nail on each hand.


I painted three coats on each nail and I would say that most needed all three coats. The green one was the only one that stayed sheer.


I realized this morning though that I totally forgot to get the names of these colors - d'oh! I will try to remember and get them tonight and update this post in the morning with the names.

Whoa! I particularly like the red!

Deez Nailz - Canadas most fabulous hand model said...

Whoa The icing's all look really good.

i love how they have a broad range of colors and finishes, but they are always soooo sheer for me that I usually pass on them. At the moment I will be picking up China Glaze instead of Claire's... (sad face)because I am super-happy with their pigmentation throughout their whole line.



Mostly I want to find out which brand those Billie polish's are like.... They are made in the U.S. but I cannot find out where. I have not tried a polish like these before... hmmmmm

Very pretty the way you arranged the polishes. Just gorgeous. I like the blue and the yellow/gold. Really pretty. I love Dinky's new picture. She looks so sweet!

The red really caught my eye too - really nice.

I'd never heard of Icing til I saw it here - fabulous.

Brooke said...

NIXXY - I was really drawn to the red one too!

DEEZ NAILZ - I tried out one of the ones you sent me last night, Pink Pansy - I want to do something better though, so I am re-doing the pics tonight. I don't think it reminds me of any brands of nail polish I already own though.

KITTY - Thanks. They have been some of the better Icing's that I have tried.

MARY - I was pretty impressed with how pigmented the yellow gold one was.

RAI - It probably wans't worth the price - lol!!

LUCY - lol, you always notice the dinky's pics. I just snapped those this morning before heading out to work.

HELEN - Icing hasn't just been a really great polish. The have some really nice colors, but most tend to be sheers.

Brooke said...

BEATRIZ - I'll tell you what I will do. I will put it up on a poll- to twitter or not to twitter, and I will go with the majority vote :) Sound fair?
