  5. Gorgeous selection of pinks for this month! I work in medical imaging and have attended 2 BCA events wearing Misa Fleeting Hybiscus. I'd love to see that color on you, you make them all look so good!

  7. Uh. Now I need to go buy a lot more pink. I love pink and own quite a few, but you made me want like 10 more! eek.

  8. You're the best! I was just thinking the other day that I wanted to get at least one more pink nail polish since that's one colour I don't have much of, and of course today you've treated me to a bazillion beautiful swatches! Thanks!

  9. I like your creative use of the phrase "a few". I am not much of a pink girl. It's green that gets me in trouble. Purple and metallic too. Also, anything vampy. I have one bottle of pink from zoya. Shimmer, maybe?

    Of the ones you posted, I really like Chanel Rose Tourbillon, OPI Love Me Tender, OPI Designer Series Chiffon, and Nubar Sugar. The latter reminds me of a bit of fabric from any junior's department formal wear section around prom season. On tips though, it's perfect!

  12. I have Essie Short Shorts on my toes right now, it's a breathtaking color hahaha! I just couldn't imagine this was real, it's so bright neon hot pink i LOVE it.
    But if I look at these pics I only want more....... argh!!

  13. Lovely swatches as always, Scrangie! Unfortunately, pink and I are not friends... it makes my very pale, yet golden toned, skin look funny. I do like warm pinks though, and there were a few that looked like they had gold in them (CG Pink Rox-E, OPI Love me Tender, Zoya Erika). You are lucky that just about every colour looks great on you!

  16. OMG! That was some serious pink pic spam! As a person who rarely find pinks that suit me, wanted all of them! My favorite is OPI Kinky in Helsinki :)

  17. While I love neon pinks on my toes, I just can't seem to do any type of pink on my tips. But, wow- Misa and Zoya have some really great pinks.

  21. Stubby, thank you :D

    Lina-Elvira, awwwe thanks! Not sure exactly, though I thought that HQHair might have them. Hmm... Any Europeans out there who know??

    Psychoswim, awwwe thank you! And I even feel like pink looks bad on me! :D

    Ray.of.night, I'm not into pinks either, but Pink-Rox-E is pretty :)

    SiennaX, thank you! Fleeting Hibiscus... I'll put that one on my list :)

    Karina, hehe thanks!

    Katee, bwahahaha! :D

    Kelly, I'm picky about my pinks- most of them make my hands look burnt for some reason!

    Atomica, awwwe thank you thank you thank you! :D

    Tarotbydiana, you're RIGHT ON about Nubar Sugar! LMAO that had me rolling on the floor! :D

    Fudge, yay! :)

    Sanna, awe thank you! I am very uncomfortable in pinks so it's nice to hear that they don't look as bad as I thought :D

    Mikki, I LOVE Essie Short Shorts! In fact, I love the whole collection... Yay! :D

    Melli, thank you! I feel like pinks make my hands look burnt or dirty so I never wear them! Is that what it does to you too? Like I have pale hands and brown fingertips. Weird!

    VampyVarnish, hehehe sorry :D *evil grin*

    Fridagal, there are so many awesome pinks out there, I do like looking at them even if I'm not comfortable wearing them :)

    Ane Kristine, I think Kinky in Helsinki might be my favorite too (love the name!) and then Zoya Kiki. :D

    Anonymous, I'm the same way!

    Black Diamond, isn't Kiki amazing? It's sparkly, bright and has a bit of blue in it, it's so beautiful! I'm glad you like it cause it's definitely a favorite of mine :D

    Badbomben, awwwe :D Lots of love to you, you crazy gorgeous woman :D

    Shisi, sure thing! :D

  22. Yeah, they look either brownish-gray or just washed out depending on the shade of pink. Anything with gold is good, and coral is awesome on me...one of my summer staples.

    I have very pale olive skin (if Casper had a bit of cream thrown into the ghostly pale white), reddish brown hair and dark brown eyes, so warm colours look good...some blues are okay, reds if they tend toward brown or orange, but pink and any pastel colours look hideous. Oh, and silver is okay but not great. It's okay though, I have embraced the yellow/gold in my skin and work with it. It comes from the weird ethnic mix - Greek, Polish, and French :)

  23. Melli, Exactly! I feel like my skintone is weird too, because it always looks so RED!! *sigh* lol
