Winter Blues NOTD

Do you ever feel blue in the winter? I know I do. All this cold and "hibernation" in my house can get a girl down! So to combat that I've been wearing China Glaze Man Hunt over and over. Man Hunt was a part of the Safari Collection from Summer 2012, but I got it for Christmas from my husband. {Funny story: he knows I love nail polish but didn't really feel like looking at my wishlist, so he just went to Ulta.com and bought all the China Glaze colors they had in stock online (I got 12!). I don't think I would have asked for Man Hunt, but I'm glad I have it now!} Man Hunt is a rich, royal blue polish with a nice glossy finish. Today I decided to pair it with Jessie's Girl Confetti.

Confetti is a beautiful blue-purple (or blurple, if you will) shimmer. As you can see from the photo below, Confetti gives Man Hunt a nice sparkle that would make any girl's blues go away! I must say I love the effect and find myself asking...what else can I layer it over?
 
After looking at my nails for a few minutes I thought, "Whay stop there?" and added an accent nail of Rainbow Honey 20% Cooler. I have to agree with her description of this polish - it really did make (me feel like my) manicure was 20% cooler after adding it.
 
I purchased Confetti at Rite Aid, but the Jessie's Girl site says they are also avaailable at select Walgreen's, Fagen and Tiffany Drug stores.
20% Cooler can be purchased from Rainbow Honey's store here.
Although Man Hunt is no longer available online at Ulta, you might be able to find it on clearance at your local store as well as online at Amazon.

***Edit***I just discovered a linky party that happens every Friday! If you are a fellow polish blogger go link up and share your fabulous Friday mani! I'm off to check out all the pretties!


Disclaimer: Since we are just getting started we are learning about lighting and such. Please bear with us as we get better at the photography. Thanks! 
These pretty polishes were purchased by me and I am in no way affiliated with any of these companies.

    I wish Jesse's Girl (and Julie G for that matter) was available at Walgreens. I've never seen it out here!

      They claim to be at "select" Walgreens. They aren't at mine either, but we do have a Rite Aid too.
