ManGlaze ILF & Nubar Polka Dots

This is the third ManGlaze polish that I have tried so far and it was just as perfect as the first two. I'm seriously so impressed with these; they have great wear time and they look gorgeous! ILF is a shimmery sea green matte (which is also gorgeous glossy!); I used two coats for this mani. 

And then I got the Nubar Polka Dots set in the mail and had to try them right away! I did two coats of Black Polka Dots first and then two coats of White Polka Dots. They were a pain in the ass! I had to place just about every one of those larger glitters in order for them to look properly dispersed. I'm still going to hold on to these, but I don't think I'll be using them very often.

ManGlaze Matte is Murder

Hey everyone! My fantastic package came from ManGlaze last week and I promptly painted my nails with Matte is Murder, their awesome matte black. It's glossy alter-ego will also be taking up permanent residence on my toes for the rest of winter and probably into sandal season. I could rave and rave and rave about how perfect and easy to apply it was and how I wore it for days before I even got minor tip wear, but would you really want to listen to that? Yeah, I thought not... here's the pics! 

I used two coats of Matte is Murder with no topcoat. The photo below is the fill-in for the Valentine's Day mani that I was planning to do. Since the one that I planned to do ended up being a huge disaster, I stamped some kisses on Matte is Murder with the two pinks from the Color Club Foiled collection and made it glossy with some Seche Vite. Not your typical V-day mani, huh?

ManGlaze Fuggen Ugly

First of all, the last thing I would call this polish (if it wasn't it's name) is fuggen ugly. Secondly, Fuggen Ugly is the most perfect, flawless grey matte polish out there. I held off on purchasing any ManGlaze polishes because they were out of my price range for a while, even though I really reaaaaaaaaally wanted them. I finally broke down and managed to do a swap and get my hands on Fuggen Ugly! So now, picture spam! First up is two coats of Fuggen Ugly straight from the bottle, no top coat.

I know I'm not the first person to rave about this, but the formula is AMAZING. Seriously, it rivals any normal, non-matte polish I have and mattes are known for being temperamental. I do have to mention that the photo above was with strong desk lighting and isn't as true to life as the second photo here is. This second photo by my window is much more representational of how Fuggen Ugly generally appears.

Lastly, this awkward claw photo is meant to let you see the difference between matte (thumb) and glossy (fingers). I'm very partial to the matte, since I'm just discovering how truly awesome they are, but glossy is definitely gorgeous as well. And in case you were wondering, I have two more of these suckers on their way to me right now! ;) Check out ManGlaze on facebook and give them a 'like'; you can even order directly from their store on FB!
