An apology and somewhat recent NOTD

Hello Dear Readers!

First off, I want to apologize again for the lack of posting and follow-through with the reviews. Things took a turn for the worse with my old cat, and on 4 August, we had Roofus put to sleep. He was suffering too much and there really wasn't anything we could do to really help. This was the most difficult thing I've ever been through. Roofus has been in my family since birth, he was born in my parents laundry room. He never complained or got rough with anyone, even at the very end when we are sure he was hurting so badly. He was such a stoic cat, and fought so bravely. So rest in peace, old friend and we will see you again someday...

Roofus: 23 April 1992 - 4 August 2010

Here's one of my recent manicures, from the 2nd of this month. I don't know the company who made this polish, or the name of the polish. I got it in a swap. I would be very sad if I'd forked out cash for this bottle. There was too little pigmentation, it was a streaky formula and on the thin side. I was expecting it to be a deep plum with visible icy blue shimmer but instead got this almost pink shade with barely any shimmer.  

This is the bottle and my nails in direct sunlight.

 

Here they are indoors. I don't know why my camera didn't focus very well here, but this was the most accurate display of the bottle color so I'm showing you anyway.

Oh well, live and learn. I have the urge to layer with a couple polishes already in my stash to see if that gives the effect that the bottle showed but failed to produce on the nail.

I have at least a couple more NOTDs (Nails of the Day) to show you before I'm caught up and I'm still hoping to do the reviews.

Happy Scratching!
