Lots of pics today because this polish it totally awesome. I picked up Bloom Bonnie in a bargain bin for $3 the other day. $3! It's normally $20 a bottle here, so even if it turned out to be a dud, it was still an exciting find.

However, as you can see, totally not a dud. It's brilliant. It's a dark indigo colour jam packed with microglitter. In the bottle, I can see hints of red in there (you can kind of see it in the bottle in the pics too), but it doesn't translate onto the nail which makes me sad, but only a little. Because it's still fabulous.

This is two coats, no topcoat, but let me tell you when you add a glossy tc, this baby smacks you between the eyes with it's awesomeness.

If you want to know what the dupes are to this, I would hazard a guess that it is close to Illamasqua Phallic, however this one is slightly darker and the glitter slightly larger and more obvious.

A stunning colour and I am more then slightly happy I dug through all the crap shades to find this gem.

That's it from me today.

Be awesome to each other. 

I have something fabulous to show you today. I think Bloom Mena is the polish I get asked to track down the most for my overseas friends, readers and MUA swaps. In fact, I know it is. I swear I get asked to add a bottle of this in for every single package. And for good reason too - it's bottled awesomesauce.

A little while back I showed you BYS Down the Rabbit Hole which is a black jelly base with holo particles suspended in it, well Mena is DTRH's much more sophisticated older sister.

Don't get me wrong, I love DTRH like it's nobodys business, but even thought the polishes are similar and Mena is four times the price at $20 a bottle, I'd pick Mena every time.

I mean look at it - who wouldn't love this polish?

The application is smooth, two coats and it's even, crazy glossy even without a top coat and most importantly - it knocks your socks off no matter what the lighting situation is. At first glance, it seems to be a somewhat subtle vampy style polish, but when people get a closer look - and trust me, they will want to! - they see it for the amazingness that it is.

Ok, enough yabbering from me. Make sure you enter my skincare giveaway right here.

That's it from me today.

Be awesome to each other.
