Betcha didn't think I'd be posting again so soon, didja? I'm so on top of things, guys.
Sinful Colors Ice Dream
I saw this one at the drugstores last winter and passed on it, only to later decide I wanted it and go back to find it gone. So I was very happy to see it again this year, and snatched it right up! It's a very sparkly, very pretty silver shimmer with blue small hexes (I think they're hexes, at least; they're very wee!).
You can build it up to opacity on its own in 3 coats, but I was lazy and just did it over one coat of Wet N Wild Silvivor, which gave almost exactly the same effect. Only one coat of top coat needed, too. Very wintry! Here's hoping we get snow this year so I can wear it and feel like the Ice Queen.
Butter London Scoundrel
This was a gift from my friend V, and it joins The Black Knight in my beloved friend-gifted, expensive-and-beautiful section of my nail stash. It's a beautiful warm purple-mauve that looks different in different lights, sometimes looking nearly neutral, others very decidedly purple.
The formula is great, very easy to apply, and it's opaque in two coats. I layered Lavishly Lilac on my ring finger for rather unnecessary reasons, but I want to see how it looks paired with Chaotic. It's also really pretty on its own––surprising for me and cremes! It dries super shiny, too, but I have a tendency to ding my nails pretty much immediately, so I topped it with top coat anyways (and it was a good thing, because I managed to knock my middle finger against the bottle no more than 30 seconds after applying top coat, which fortunately evened itself out nicely!). Gawgeous.
Zoya Payton
I love Blaze and Storm, so when Zoya released a vampy plum scattered holo with their winter collection, I wanted it. And when they had BOGO free + free shipping for Halloween, I ordered it! (The other polish will be featured in a future MM.)
It's everything I'd hoped it would be: rich, complex, subtly glimmery and very plush. It's opaque in two coats, and I love it. I shall be wearing it with great gusto throughout the season, and beyond.
What do you think? Any polishes you've been loving lately?

| Here, it looks pretty bright and warm, but sometimes it's darker and cooler. Fun! |
