Nail Polish Obsession!

I've always been a big fan of nail polish, but I never really painted my nails very often. Mainly because I'm a nail biter and, for the most part, they're always short. And I'm not a fan of stubby little painted nails. But, if I keep my nails painted, I don't bite them. So, I've been painting my nails every third or fourth day (depending on if the polish I'm wearing has chipped a lot, a little, or not at all). I have a pretty decent sized polish collection, so I've been trying to take advantage of it and use a different color each time I've painted my nails. I did notice that I didn't have a light, opaque purple or a true blue color. When I was at Walgreens I saw this gorgeous purple Wet N' Wild polish, so I swatched and it was absolutely perfect. It looked a little lighter in the bottle than it looks on the nails after two coats. It ends up being a blue-toned purple that I totally love! Then I strolled over to Walmart and looked at the Pure Ice display. I am totally in love with Pure Ice! They always seem to have the exact color I'm looking for. This day was no different! "French Kiss" (a true blue) immediately caught my eye and then a second later I saw "Strapless" (which is a clear polish with the most gorgeous blue glitter in it, you will ever see). Putting Strapless over two coats of French Kiss is so amazingly beautiful. I seriously can't stop looking at my nails! I need to take pictures when the lighting in my room is a little better. But, for now, these pictures I found on Google will have to do :)

The Wet N' Wild Megalast polish is $1.99 and Pure Ice sells for $1.97. Very cheap for such great quality and color selection.
