The Loch Ness Monster Likes Makeup Too

So, I want to try something new and different this month. Instead of doing a post about all the polishes I wore this month (as I've been doing since April), I'm restricting this post to just my favorite polishes of the month. After all, there's not much of a point to talking about polishes I didn't like. Hopefully, this will be a more helpful way of blogging about the month's nail polishes, and it will give you a better idea of the polishes I was truly impressed by. Let me know in the comments if you prefer this format! Anyway, without further ado, here are my favorite nail polishes for July: Virgin Snow by Essie - My first favorite of this month is one of my favorite Essie polishes ever. In fact, it's the only nail polish I own a backup of. (I bought the backup after KathleenLights talked about it because it was a limited edition polish, and everything KathleenLights talks about goes out of stock immediately). Anyway, for me, this polish is the perfect li...

So, I've decided to try a new sort of post this month. Recently, I've been really into nail polish and doing my nails. Actually, I don't think I left the same nail polish on for more than two or three days in a row this month. I wanted to talk about some of the nail looks I did this month, so I took a picture of every manicure I did this month (sans one horrible, glittery, gloopy mess that I couldn't bring myself to photograph) and now I'm going to write about. So, if you're bored by incessant chatter about nail polish, click away. But, honestly, who could possibly be bored by incessant chatter about nail polish. Please excuse my horrific cuticles; I am in desperate need of cuticle oil. Over the Moon by Butter London - This was my first manicure of the month. Obviously, this is a nice, basic warm grey. It's nice and neutral and professional. Plus, it's a Butter London shade, so it's completely and utterly chip proof. Like, you have to try to c...

So, I have a story for you. A few months ago, during Christmas break, I went through my nail polish collection and gave away a bunch of colors I didn't wear anymore and threw away some really old bottles. When I was doing that, I got rid of a lot of glitter nail polish and a lot of bright colors because, I thought "let's be real, I'm not going to wear any of these things anymore." Guess who recently decided that they like glitter nail polish and bright colors? -_- Me -_- Anyway, I recently started to watch a lot of YouTube videos about nail polish and I got really excited about doing nails and, all of the sudden, I had to buy every nail polish in the world. I was like "oh no, I don't have any glitters! I don't have any holos! I only have three OPIs! I need to go buy everything!" So, basically I went on a nail polish binge -- or, as I like to call it, a nail polish rampage. I'm not proud of it, but my nails have been looking pretty aweso...
