Jump Into Summer With wet 'n wild megalast's Club Havana


*singing* "It's getting hot in hurr, so take off all your clothes...I am get-t-ing so hot, I wanna take my clothes offf..."

wet 'n wild's Club Havana is fiery hot.  The brand has given me quite the surprise with their megalast line of polishes.  It first started when I saw a Gimme That Glow blog post on two colors from the line.  Curious, I went out and bought a couple for myself (I'll get around to posting those first two one of these days, btw).  Then, last week I saw that Walgreens had a buy 2 get 1 sale (it's still going on!), so I picked up three more.  The newest additions to my collection were languishing in the bag all set to be forgotten until I saw Color Republic's post on Club Havana.  The color not only looked familiar to me, but it looked great on her.  Familiar because I'd already purchased it and it was sitting in that crumpled up bag on my shelf.  I went ahead and pulled it out, and I'm glad I did. 


It's a hot tangerine that can't quite call itself a neon, but it's definitely eye-catching with its bright pop of color.


It looks much more tame in the shade and indoors




That ManiCurve brush served me well before--it's makes it easy for me to paint nearly the entire nail in one swoop--but this one had a few straggly ends.  A piece of it ended up embedding itself in my mani.  Not cool.

Aside from issues with the brush, this one definitely gets the MPP stamp of approval.

Work Safe Wednesday: OPI Steady As She Rose

Greetings!! Is it too late for a Work Safe Wednesday post?  Nah, never.  Today I'd like to show you OPI's Steady As She Rose.  It's a soft...um...rose pink (I guess the name gave it away), brought to us courtesy of OPI's Pirates of the Caribbean collection.  Though I like the color, those OPI brushes irk me.  The finish is always nice, so I'll continue to put up with the streak inducing, curve hating brushes. :)  BTW, if you don't have this experience with OPI brushes, will you please share your technique with me?  Maybe I'm just doing it wrong.




I jazzed it up an eensy, weensy bit with Wet N Wild's Sparked.  I bought it for only $0.99 at Walgreens last week :)




I've got more coming your way, so stay tuned!
