My Favorites Of 2010

Hi all,

Today I have my favorites of 2010 for you! It contains the polishes I've loved the most in the past year, so that means they're not necessarily 2010 releases :) I'll link my original post of the polish underneath the picture! I've sneaked in some favorite mani's as well. Be prepared for a lot of pictures and a lot of variety in my nail length!

So tell me! What are your favorite polishes of 2010? And what will you be doing in tonight to celebrate the New Year?

Deborah Lippmann: Ruby Red Slippers

Hi all,

Today I have a recent NOTD for you again! This isn't 'just' a polish, this is one of the most beautiful polishes I've ever seen and I'm not kidding when I say this! I layered it over one of my favorite reds, which gave this stunning look.


Deborah Lippmann Ruby Red Slippers, three coats over Chanel Gondola. You don't have to layer it: I wanted to try it over Gondola, but I liked it better when it was darker, so I added more coats. Ruby Red Slippers consists of red hexagonal glitter and fine red glitter in a sheer black base. It gives an amazing look and I loved it! You might need some topcoat though; it dried quite gritty with me and I ended up using two or three coats of topcoat (not pictured in the photo).


Another picture, this time in lower lighting. It looks so glow-y, it's so pretty to look at! I love it.

The only downside was that the polish just fell off my thumb! I was standing in a store and when I reached out to get something from the shelves, I saw the nail polish was completely missing. I didn't even notice it coming off! That was a pretty big bummer. It might be due to the amount of coats in total, so I won't blame Ruby Red Slippers for it now. I'm going to try this again on its own soon :)

Do you own any Deborah Lippmann nailpolishes? If so, which one(s) and which one(s) is your favorite?
