More Precisions, Part IV!

Good morning, Dear Reader!

Today I have *more* Precisions for you! Will they ever end? You'll just have to keep reading and find out!

I also have a fun surprise for you today, as well as the joy and honor of announcing the winner of the Get In-Spider-ed Giveaway. The winner is Angy from France, the author of Blog de Onglideal (linked on the right), who came up with the idea of painting an autumn garden scene, and through a translator (she speaks French) contacted me to clarify that she would paint the scene across all the nails, like a continuous mural. I've seen some of her work along these lines, and it's astounding, so that idea was the winner for the most creative use (in my little opinion) of the Get In-spider-ed Minis. Congrats to Angy! I hope she wears the glow-in-the-dark ring when she does the mani!

Let's get to the pictures first, and then on to the surprise. I have some pretty pretties here today! I'll go with reverse alphabetical order, because you know I like to save the best for last.

First in line is Purple Fusion (the label says, "Furple Fusion," and I don't know of that's a typo or a weirdo name...), a mauve-y purple with a strong silver shimmer.

Next up is Pandora's Box, a stunning hot pink with a strong silver shimmer and flash.

Coming in at number three is Confushia Says..., a really vivid red fuchsia creme.

Last, but so, so far from least, is Baby Rock. It's a vampy creme that's the color of dried blood on the nail. I looked for my OPI Vampire State Building to compare the two, as I think they're close, but must have already packed it away. As soon as I unpack VSB, I shall do the comparison.

And the post-swatching mani was Baby Rock with the obligatory Konad.

Those are all my pictures for today, which means it's time for the surprise! As I'm sure you know by now, Dear Reader, I got these Precisions from sparkling*nails on ebay - that's the usual link to her listings of these, and if you "need" something that's sold out, if you email her she'll help you when you tell her you read about the color on The Nailphile. She recently contacted me to let me know that French buyers can do the same - just email her with an order for a shipping quote, and she'll ship to France for you. In any case, it seems a lot of Dear Readers have been buying from her and letting her know that they read about the items on The Nailphile, so with my most recent haul, she sent you a gift! It's a set of the OPI Holiday 2006 Music Hall Minis, which are going for $20 right now. I decided to do a random drawing for the set, and will be taking entries for a week. As always, the contest is open world wide, your name will show as you enter it (but you don't have to enter your full name), and your email will only be used to contact you if you're the winner.

That's all for today, Dear Reader! Love and nail polish to you!
