Nars - Night Porter

Hello! Hello!

The Night Porter joins the blog today! (sorry that was uncalled for lol) This is the third in the Night Series from Nars so only one more to go! This is probably my favorite from the collection because I just LOVE green polish and am always on the lookout for new and different green shades. It looks almost borderline matte but the formula is certainly NOT a matte although you could probably use a matte top coat instead of a shine one. I love this, don't really have anything else to say, so ENJOY!

Nars - Night Rider

Hello! Hello!

Here is number two from the Nars Night Series Collection! This is Night Rider and unfortunately is the only one in the collection that is a little disappointing. I lost track of the amount of coats it took to get to this color, it was somewhere between 4-6. The formula although sheer and therefore very thin is also very easy to worth with and not a a problem having to do 4 or 5 coats, also it doesn't looks like gunk on your nails at all. Seche vite did a wonderful job as a top coat but even a regular top coat would work because the polish itself dries very fast on its own. Overall would I repurchase this? Most likely not but I will enjoy it while I have it.

On a totally unrelated note I feel like this color should have been named Diamond Life and the Night Breed should have been called Night Rider. Why you might be asking yourself? I have no clue, but to me it just seems like those names would suit the particular colors a lot better.

COLOR:  Soft plum with silver glitter (website) I think the glitter is holographic because it looks both silver/gold/blue/pink in different lights

Nars - Night Breed

Hello! Hello!

This post will be the beginning of a series of posts of the Nars Night Series Limited Edition. This is one of the most exciting collection for me in a while. This collection came out a little while ago but it's a new love for me. I have purchased every color of this small collection and will be swatching them for you guys!

Today I have Night Breed which is a black base with a finely milled silver glitter. The base polish isn't very opaque because the glitter is so fine that if the black was a solid opaque black it would get lost in translation, another benefit of the fine milled glitter is that it's not a problem with removal. I just love this color! It's such a different and unique color. Yes there are lots of similar 'dupes' out there I even have a few similar ones but nothing this refined and beautiful.

Anyhoo! Enough giber gaber time for the pictures! Enjoy!

Nars - Diamond Life


Hello! Hello! 

I have something different today for you guys! I am taking a bit of a break from Barielle, even though I do still love them, but having visited a Nars counter several times in the last few months I've picked up 3 polishes from them. I've eyed Nars polishes for quite a while but held off on them due to the price tag but once I fell in love with the colors I grabbed I got over the sticker shock very quickly. In related news I also have one more 'unexpected' brand coming soon to the blog. I really like the color it's beautiful and it's like nothing I have or have seen before so that's when I knew I had to have it. I have nothing bad to say about the formula I really enjoyed it and if you're in a big enough hurry you could do one coat of this and you're out the door because it's opaque enough that one coat could suffice. Drying time on it's own is quite good also (better than OPI) and the brush is also fabulous. Hope you enjoy! 

P.S. Because it's such a cool color and it looks slightly different depending on how the light hits it hence the TONS of pics!
