China Glaze OMG Text in Colour 2BKEWL Nail Polishes: Mother’s Day Manicure

May 10th, 2008 by Karen 26 Comments

Happy Saturday, girls. I’m lucky enough to live close to my parents, so tomorrow I’m heading home to visit my mom for Mother’s Day. I thought it might be fun if she and I painted our nails a matching color. Here’s the twist: I would like it to be a slightly obnoxious color, so her yoga friends at the senior center can ask her about it (“Girl, I saw those nails from across the room while I was mid-downward dog!”).

Earlier this week, I painted my nails L8R G8R, a green shade from China Glaze’s OMG Text in Colour 2BHot collection. This weekend, just to switch it up, I think mom might like to rock one of China Glaze’s six cool, shimmery shades from the 2BKEWL collection ($27 for the entire set).

I’m trying to decide among…

OMG (Oh my gawd)– holographic grey with rainbow shimmer
2NITE (Tonight) – holographic blue
IDK (I don’t know) – holographic violet
BFF (Best friends forever) – holographic purple-blue
LOL (Laugh out loud) – holographic dark purple
DV8 (Deviate) – holographic teal

I’m leaning toward DV8, but I think all of them are pretty.

I hope your weekend is off to a good start. What’s on your agenda today?

Your friendly neighborhood beauty addict,

Karen

    Hi Glosslizard and Megan,

    Thanks for your comments earlier – there were some issues with the code and somehow in the process of fixing the post I lost ’em all, pooh! I just wanted to let you guys know that they weren’t deleted on purpose, it was accidental.

    Hope ya’ll are having a good Saturday.

    IDK is really nice. Overall, I am more impressed by the 2BHOT collection as compared to the 2BKEWL collection.

    Oh so pretty, I love nail polish but after a day I have this habit of picking at them and not liking them on my nails anymore and so I have to remove it quickly… kinda crazy I know, so I swore not to buy anymore nail polish, but these look really pretty/cool… I tempted to get some and I really like LOL, maybe cuz Im in a “purple phase” right now. By the way, thanks for your input on Shore Leave comparasion to NextToNothing, I havent used Shore Leave yet cuz I’m weird like that, I think I’ll wait for the Neo Sci Fi collection to decide whether I want it or not

    I like BFF, I think it’s appropriate for both of you. It’s cute that you and your mom are doing the matching mani-pedi thing. My 2nd choice would be OMG because I like white nail polish 😀

    Hi Erin,

    It’s so fun! I usually don’t wear bright teal blues but I really like it.

    How’s your weekend been?

    Hi Meaghan,

    I like it too! I didn’t think I would when I saw it in the bottle but now I’m really feeling all the crazy, bright colors. Must be beacause summer is right around the corner. Have you had a good weekend so far?

    Hi Mis QQ,

    I think the 2BHOT collection is slightly more wearable. If I was working in a conservative environment I could prolly get away with those shades more than these.

    Are you a bright nail polish kinda girl?

    Hi Fia,

    I am SO EXCITED about Neo Sci Fi, you don’t even know! I really like the colors and they look very wearable to me.

    What top coat are you using for your nails? Have you ever tried Seche Vite? I swear it’s the BEST top coat out there and it makes your polish stay on forever.

    Hi Dao,

    I like white nail polish too, especially for summer. 🙂

    I will have to get through this crazy colors phase first!

    Hi Karen, you are right. I think I’m more impressed by the 2BHOT collection because I can picture myself more with those colours.

    Bright nail polish – for my toes only, not fingers. Cannot risk causing headaches to my colleagues while I’m typing away. =P

    Hi Miss QQ,

    Yeah, I hear ya. Sometimes I look at my crazy painted nails when I’m typing and I’m like, “WOW! That’s bright!”

    I am definitely looking forward to sandal season and bright toe nail polish. Do you have a favorite bright shade?

    Does anyone know where I can buy these without spending a fortune? I am only 12 and don’t want to blow all my money on nail polish! I really want OMG and I also love DV8 and BFF. They are discontinued and I want them soooooooooooo much! Why can’t they continue making these or make a new holographic collection? They are super popular (at least to me) and they would make lots of money! Other holographic polishes don’t compete with these! 😉

Hi there! I’m Karen, your friendly neighborhood beauty addict, and I’m a Bay Area girl who hoards brown eyeshadow and covets coral lipstick. Every morning, I wake up and say, “I’m going to do something other than a smoky eye today.” Then…I end up doing a smoky eye anyway (most days). When I’m not putting on makeup, taking pictures of makeup or writing about makeup, which I’ve been doing daily since 2007 (!), you’ll find me hanging out with my hubby (“El Hub”), my four-year-old daughter (Connor Claire) and my torbie girl cat (Pretty Girl Rosie, a.k.a. PGR).
