ABC Challenge The Letter Q

This was a hard one (as will some in the future) I don't have all that many Q polishes.

I managed to find Queen For A Night by Finger Paints, it's from the Masked Affair Collection in 2014. I must add Finger Paints has become one of my favourite polish brands. Though I do tend to wait til they are on clearance at Sally Beauty to buy them.


Isn't that a pretty polish?  This is a dark blue polish with a green shift and lots of gold flakes in it.



The shift is more apparent in the bottle, but I can notice it on my nails.

Though it didn't on me, I have read that this polish can stain.




ABC Challenge The Letter P

Princess Peach by EatSleepPolish is my P polish for the ABC Challenge.

This is from the Fairies & Princesses collection which is still available on



Even though pink is not a favorite nail color of mine, this is a very pretty pink holographic polish.

Easy application with a decent holo effect.


I think the holo shows up more in this second photo. It's not the strongest holo, but it's definitely there. The unicorn on my ring finger is also available on EatSleepPolish. Caterina has a number of different vinyls available.

ABC Challenge The Letter O

For my O polish in the ABC Challenge I chose Orly's Oui.


It is a pretty purple with a very intense gold shimmer in it. I think the next picture shows it better.


I only have a mini bottle, but I really should have a large one, This is just such a gorgeous polish.

ABC Challenge The Letter N

For my N polish I used a new addition to my collection, Nori from Zoya. I got it when Zoya opened their shipping to Canada.

Nori is one of the newer and regrettably last of the Pixie Dusts Zoya is making.


 Nori is a Magical Pixie Dust which means it has holographic hex glitter, that sparkles through.

Even though I didn't top coat this, I really didn't feel that much texture to it.



Just an add on to this, I used NYC's Strip Me Off Basecoat. I am loving it so far. I wore this mani for almost 4 days without losing any peeling off or any chips for that matter.

ABC Challenge: M

Again a little late, but this is my M polish. It is Finger Paints Margarita Mambo. Which happened to be a fitting color for St. Patricks Day.


It is a very pretty vibrant green, but it was quite sheer. I needed to do three coats and I can still see some nail line. Though it was not as noticeable in person.


This has a pretty yellowish-gold shimmer running through it.

ABC Challenge: The Letter L

I choose KB Shimmer's Let's Sleigh Together for my L polish.

KB Shimmer has fast become one of my favourite Indie brand polishes. Such beautiful glitter polishes, with great formulas.

Let's Sleigh Together is  grey based with green and blue microglitter, blue and green smaller hex glitter and larger blue circle glitters plus it has a holographic microglitter that sparkles.







ABC Challenge brought to you by the letter K

Next up in the ABC Challenge is K, for my K polish I chose Square Hue's Kalver Straat.

It's a nice pretty hot pink color.


The next picture shows a better bottle shot.


Two coats and not a bad formula, but the brush was rather stiff making applying it somewhat difficult.
