Reason #237 why this diet thing is lame:  rice cakes taste NOTHING like Cheetos.  Ugh.  I’m trying so hard to be good, but this potato chip-free HELL we’re in is about to reach a breaking point.  Cuz one cannot live on food that tastes like a wad of chewed up paper – coated in zesty ranch flavoring, but still.

So excuse me while I go cry into a bowl of baby carrots (again).  It is a sad state of affairs for ME.

Good thing there’s nail polish!  One hand may not be stuck inside a chip bag like normal, but the other one is definitely blogging (also, it is past 1 in the morning so OF COURSE WE ARE BLOGGING as sleep is a thing for other people) and I’ve got more Polish Pickup goodies to show you tonight.  Who’s ready for ultra drool-y scenarios?  Well, then here … lemme help you.  Presenting BLUSH Lacquers in all it’s tongue lolling glory:

At minimum.  Seriously, who’s walking away from this thing now?  Only the crazy people.

Once again, the theme for December is Holidays Around the World and Victoria chose my absolute favorite, New Years Eve.  I’ve loved New Years Eve for as long as I can remember.  There’s just something about the turn of a year, that moment at midnight when the old is gone and the new begins, that brings me so much happiness.  But also pizza rolls.  Lots and lots of pizza rolls.  Of course, this year’s pizza roll might come in the form of ANOTHER DADGUM RICE CAKE.  Booooo.  Let’s just hope I’m skinny by then cuz rice cakes make me var var sad.

The inspiration photo:

And then this magical thing happened:

COUNTDOWN KISS

DESCRIPTION:  An icy silvery-blue holographic with blue/purple/pink shifting multichrome, holo flakies and iridescent purple/green/pink/gold flakies

OPACITY:  Two of the dreamiest coats

Is this not the most glorious thing?  I literally want a giant bathtub full of this.  And then to live in the bathtub forever.  Ugh.  Victoria, for real, what have you done?  I was being so normal there for a bit.  But then suddenly, HOLO has it’s jazz hands on and now I’ve lost all semblance of a classy lady.

Formula is easy peasy and a pure nerdy pleasure to apply.  Soooo .. you’re buying this, in case you didn’t know.  Plus backups, and backups for your backups.  Rational behavior?  NOT TODAY!

Then I did this close up thing.  Aside from the insane display of holo, I’m mesmerized by my own cuticles.  Seriously.  LOOK AT THEM.

Okay, back to the holo, i.e., THE DADGUM POINT.

Oooooh, you’re about to spend some money, I can already tell!

Price: $13.00

And now, the most interesting cut-and-paste situation we’ve ever been in.  The efforting is currently at an all-time high.

(But read it anyway.  It’s still important stuff.)

WHAT: 50-plus indie polish brands all coming together for a one-stop shop event; you buy one or all, it’s up to you! Flat $3 shipping no matter what. Combined shipping is offered as well so go ahead and make 42 separate orders; it’s all good (crazy, but good).

WHEN: Friday, December 1 at 11am EST thru all day Monday, December 4

More Polish Pickup tomorrow!  Got four left to do and two days to do it.  Seriously, if I somehow manage to pull this off, I fully expect bonus points and a whooooole lotta Leonardo.  You know, if y’all not busy.

Later, loves!
