I'm journeying away from my usual cool colours for this gorgeous red from OPI!

This is 2 coats of OPI No Spain No Gain over and under my Revlon Multi-Care Base+Top Coat.  So shiny!

I picked this up at my long-time spa since they had a bucket of OPIs on clearance, love it!

Have you broken out of a beauty comfort-zone recently? If so how?

This is 2 coats of Julep Valerie over my Revlon Multi-Care Base+Top Coat.  Can we just appreciate how shiny this polish is! It's described as a teal with gold shimmer from Julep, however I find it more green than teal and love it! Definitely nothing similar in my collection!

I received this polish in my October Maven box (see here)

Yay for deep blues!  This is 2 coats of Sephora by OPI Opening Night (from this haul) over and under my Revlon Multi Care Base+Top Coat.

I actually really loved this look (no surprise, I'm a huge fan of blues!), really sophisticated and think it would awesome under a silver glitter!

Any other navy or dark blue polish suggestions would be appreciated!

On Stage has been on my to-buy list for a while now, and I've been loving all the swatches of Giovanna on various blogs I follow so picked it up when I spotted it on display.

My metallic-y duochrome mani! This is 2 coats of OPI Not Like the Movies (from this haul) with 1 coat of Sally Hansen Moonstone Chrome (one of my oldest nail polish) as the accent.  I used my Revlon Multi-Care Base+Top as the base for this mani.

Can we just stop and admire how this polish transitions from a forest green to a purple to a silver?

What is your favourite duochrome?

October Empties

Only used up three products this month :( I will try to reduce more in November.

Sephora Mango Smoothing Body Scrub: I bought this last November to get a Sephora purchase over $75 to get free shipping. I actually love the scent, tropical and fruity! I also love how my legs feel after using this, very soft and smooth! However, it did not completely eliminate my ingrown hairs, so I am trying out other exfoliants before deciding whether or not I will repurchase this.

Givenchy Very Irresistible: I got this as a sample from this haul. This scent is a bit too flowery for me, but I did use it up to the last drop. A great mysterious scent!

The Body Shop Exotic Shower Gel: I have had this for wayyy too long (The Body Shop has rebranded several times since this look).  I love the scent, but I don't think it's carried anymore.  The Body Shop's shower gels are great, but a bit pricey for my budget.

What products did you use up in October?

A simple rose mani!  This is 2 coats of Zoya Kate (from this haul) over my Revlon Multi Care Base+Top Coat.

I think Kate is a great fall colour and definitely work appropriate!

What colours do you wear to work?
