YES PLEASE.
I was poking around the polishes at a Midwest superstore called Meijer and happened to pick up a bottle of Sinful Colors Daddy's Girl. I know that some bloggers have a lot of love for it, but I've always been on the fence. However, what I saw yesterday completely changed my perspective.
Please click the picture to get a better view of this gorgeous new shimmer!!
This picture is more subtle, but click away to see the neat duochrome of the microshimmer in the bottle. Blue, red, gold! That doesn't show on the nail, but my pictures don't even get close to capturing the beautiful colors coming from this bottle.
The formula that I found is on the left. The original formula is on the right.
If you've seen Daddy's Girl swatched before, you know the drill. It's a purple jelly polish, and near impossible to capture. It comes through very blue in my picture, unfortunately. In reality, it's a true purple jelly, with stunning red shimmer running through it. I'm finding that the red-violet color really compliments my skin tone!
And here's the standard bottle shot. This is a good one to click to see the red shimmer! This is three easy coats.
I really hope that this is a completely new formula, but I can't be sure. It could just be an odd batch. It seems like their new polishes all have a raised "SC" on the cap, but this bottle doesn't have that. I adore this red shimmer version. It reminds me of Nfu-Oh 51 without the flakes. <3
So has anyone else seen this version floating around?
Thanks for reading!
With so many pretty polishes to be found, who has time to let their nails go bare?

OttLite question, upcoming giveaway, and Royal Navy!
Question and pictures later! The most important thing first!
I have ninety-six wonderful followers! I would like to thank you all so very much for taking the time to read my little blog. I hadn't ever expected that people might be interested in my simple life and little nubs. :) Thank you all again, so very much!
I'd like to announce that once I reach one hundred followers, I'll be posting a new giveaway! It's not a lot, but I will say that it's a new, hard to find polish that has dozens of bloggers on a wild goose chase. ;) I can't wait to get it started!
I was looking through the weekly ads and noticed that JoAnn Fabrics (is it still called that?) has OttLite lamps on sale for 50% off this week! I live in the Midwest, and during winter months, proper light is reduced to, y'know, zero. :) I wore Color Club's Wild at Heart all weekend, hoping to see a glimpse of sunlight, but no luck. How great would a proper lamp be?
So my question is, which light is most advised for the pictures that we take? I don't need a floor light, so a desk lamp is most appropriate. But which one? Do you use a particular model? Do you like it?
Onto Orly Royal Navy. I love when you can see the ripple effect that a polish has through the blogging community. As far as I know, Royal Navy has been in Orly's core line for a while, but a few months ago, it gained a popularity with bloggers. First there would be one post. Then three. And they kept coming. :)
Look at how jelly sheer it is! This is three coats. I didn't notice the VNL until I took pictures of it in the light. It was a great color, though! Blues are usually not my cup of tea, and I'm still not entirely sure that I'm going to add this one to my permanent collection. But for a blue? It was pretty great. :)
My nails go from long to short all the time. This is long for me, haha! Perhaps the color would look best on me if I wasn't wrestling with the VNL issue.
Do I even need to mention the light blue glitter mixed into this polish? Gorgeous!
And since I was eating at Culver's at the time that I took the picture, I snapped a quick one with the cup. Cute! Also, ignore my pinky. I believe this is when I had a run in with a straight razor. :(
I would love to hear your thoughts and suggestions on OttLites. I'd love to get this giveaway up on its feet. If you have any nail buddies that you think might like my blog, I'd love it very much if you'd pass my name along! :)
As always, thank you for reading!
