So I was saving this one for a special occasion. This Saturday my husband and I are celebrating our fifth wedding anniversary. (I love you, Todd!) I decided to overhaul the finger and toes and when thinking about our upcoming weekend away (just going to Denver, about an hour away) I decided to do red toenails. Classic red. Then I remembered the Red Room of Pain.
I debated putting it on my toes because I know what it takes to get glitter off of nails. The foil wrapped around my piggies?!?! Did I want to do that??? Would I rather choose Christian's Red Room of Pain than go through the process of removing glitter from my toes???
Obviously I went through with it. Please excuse my overpainting on the toes. As some of you know, it's work to get down there and get the too look pretty. The look a tad dry, and there is some paint where it shouldn't be but it's all good!!
So I started with Essie's Jag-U-Are. It's a gorgeous red shimmer. Here it is and here are my toes...
It's a really nice red.
So I started with one coat of Red Room of Pain (WHICH I LOVE!!!)
I offered pretty good coverage from the get go. But it wasn't ENOUGH sparkle. We were planning on going to a fancy dinner so these toes needed to be Ah-MAZING!!!!
Coat two (sorry for the blurry photos...my iPhone doesn't take the greatest photos...that or it's user error).
I love them, and so does Todd.
Over all a great polish!!! Only one more review to go in the collection. More...
Which I have used but I forgot to photograph it...I know...silly me...

Essie - All Tied Up
So I got a bunch of bottle of Essie nail polish. So exciting! The first one I tried was called All Tied Up...
I would call it kind of a neutralized pink color - the hard thing to see is the gold shimmer it has - so I took a photo with the flash on and while it distorted the color slightly - you can see the underlying shimmer in the polish.
It really is a pretty color and good for all seasons. The polish went on nice and smooth and I would definitely wear this again and again!
