Howdy, everyone! It's Wednesday and that means it's time for another ABC Challenge post! We're up to "H" now and I had an idea to do something fancier than what I did, but, quite frankly, I'm exhausted, physically, mentally, and emotionally. It's been a long week and it's not looking to get shorter any time soon. That said, a great mani always makes me feel better. And this manicure is pretty darn fantastic. Without any more gilding the lily, here ya go:
What you're looking at is the slightly dimmed glory of Fascination Street by Cirque. I say "slightly dimmed" because there was absolutely no sun today for me to get outdoor photographs of this loveliness. I should mention that the "H" in this manicure stands for holographic. FS is a strong linear holographic polish with a dark purple base. This beauty simply stuns you in the sunshine and I highly recommend snagging a bottle from their website as soon as you can! FS will set you back around $15 but it's so totally worth it! I've paired it here with a bright purple Color Club polish (no name as it came in a set I got at Marshall's) as a base.
I'm hoping the sun might peek out tomorrow so I can get a couple of photos of this in it's true glory, but, as I scored 4 Orlys and 2 China Glazes at Sally's today for under $30, I somehow doubt Fascination Street is going to stay on long enough for the sun to come out. So many lovely polishes, so little time!
Speaking of Sally's, they have a great sale on Orly, 2 for $11 plus I had a 15% off coupon on any purchase over $20. China Glaze polishes are also $1 off with a coupon (found in their in-store circular) through tomorrow. I do love a little retail therapy!
Please stop in and take a look at the other gals who are participating in the ABC Challenge. You can check them out via the thumbnails below. Thanks so much for reading!
I went to Sally's today too, got four polishes for $20... 2 orlys, 2 ChGs... Really nice holo, I haven't tried anything from Cirque yet.
ReplyDeleteReached the end of my day and set to crasch but had to finish your great post. Fascination Street is so special. Thanks much for a bird's eye into that gorgeous linear holo. Even outside of sunlight, this polish is fierce. Still...I hear ya: enough of this wintery pall, already.
ReplyDeleteRetail therapy is very rewarding. :)
Happy Thursday!

Winter can end anytime soon - we all need some sunshine, and not just for a day between snow storms. Beatiful polish - looks like a totally different color between photo 1 and 2. You can never go wrong with holos, can you?
ReplyDeleteWow, that effect is super cool! :D No doubt it will cheer you up! ^^ I hope you'll get back to normal life soon.
ReplyDeleteWoooooooow I really love Dark Holo's, this one is so amazing! Really nice pick :)We're almost at the end of the week, hang on girl!
