Color Club Rebel Debutante Day 7: Ms. Socialite

The final polish of the Color Club rebel Debutante collection is the darker purple Ms. Socialite.

Color Club Ms. Socialite - sunshine

Color Club Ms. Socialite - shade

Because it is a purple it is hard to get colour accurate in photos. The one is the sunshine is closest to the real colour. It is a very red toned purple. This one is a little bit on the runny streaky side. This is still 3 coats, but is a little uneven if you look close enough in the sun.

Final thoughts on this collection:

Browns and Purples. All Cremes. Not very exciting to be honest. They were all great formulas with good drying times. It has a very professional feel to it, they seem appropriate work colours, and seem to fit in well with the fall/autumn season, with the colours being on trend to match this years fashion (caramel coloured coats are the in thing this winter in New Zealand).

Hope you have a great weekend and lots of pretty polish.

Lots of Love

1 year Blog Birthday!

Today marks one year since I started Never Ending Obsession.


I had seen many blogs about nail polish and with my rather large nail polish collection, I thought, I can do that too.

It has been amazing!

I love all my followers. I love reading comments, as well as other peoples blogs.

There will be another international give away when I get to 300 followers.

Today is also the final day for New Zealanders to enter my Color Club Rebel Debutante collection give away.

I wish you all a fabulous nail day.

Color Club Rebel Debutante Day 6: She's So Glam

Color Club Rebel Debutante Day 6: She's So Glam

This is a light to medium pink creme.

Color Club She's So Glam - sunshine

Color Club She's So Glam - shade

Application and formula are great. This is three coats. This drys with quite a glossy shiny finish.

It is a very cute young looking light pink. A very easy colour to wear.

She's so Glam is a nice polish but in no way unique. It does fit well with the rest of the collection, but is not something that is hard to find anywhere else.

I think this one is actually more spring/summer than fall/autumn like the rest of the Rebel Debutante collection.

Today is the last chance for New Zealanders to win the whole Rebel Debutante collection. Click here to go to the giveaway page for this giveaway.

Spotted in NZ: Nicole by OPI

The first set of Justin Beiber polishes released by Nicole by OPI have been spotted in Wellington (at Farmers on Lambton Quay) and Auckland (at Smith and Caugheys) and are selling for $19.95 each.

Picture thanks to Lisa (the other one who I will now refer to as Lisa W)
who I managed to convince to take using her iphone camera.

So far this is the only collection that has been spotted in New Zealand. At Farmers they are in the same section as the regular OPI polishes.

Luckily I am not a fan of Justin and am not hugely impressed by the polishes, so can save myself some money and start paying off my credit card.

Lots of Love
Lisa

Not yet spotted in NZ: OPI Katy Perry

The New Zealand distributers of OPI assure us that the Katy Perry collection will be in stores in time for her New Zealand concerts. The problem here is that these concerts are three months away still - so does this mean the Katy Perry polishes are still 3 months away? (you can order them from Beyond Beauty in New Zealand online)

I knew I wanted the whole collection as soon as information was released about them.

Unfortunately about 6 weeks ago, on the day the went on sale at transdesign.com they sold out in 4 hours, with no guarantee they would be getting more in stock. He came my dilemma. Do I wait and hope they get more in stock, to I cross my fingers and hope they come to New Zealand, or do I find somewhere else to get them from.

After a lot of anguish, Lisa and I put in an order to www.beautyofasite.com for the Katy Perry polishes and Serena Grand Slam polishes. At Beauty of a site the OPI polishes retail for US$8.50 each. In total we ordered 14 polishes and paid NZ$242.61 (this included about US$55 postage) so we paid about $17 a polish.

Left to Right: OPI Black Shatter, Last Friday Night, Teenage Dream, Not like the movies, the one that got away.

So it may have cost a bit of money and took awhile to get here, but about 2 weeks ago my Katy Perry polishes arrived safe and sound in New Zealand. I'm glad I managed to get a hold of these. I would have been devastated if I couldn't. I am supper excited about using the two glitters in this collection! (I am not afraid to say that yes I am a glittah whore)

I saw plenty of these polishes in Melbourne at David Jones, random nail places and the duty free stores in the Airport. So they are easy to still find in Australia.

Unfortunately the weather has been utter crap this last week and I haven't been able to do swatches of any of my new polishes.

Hope your weekends went well.
Lots of Love
