Beauty Review: China Glaze 'For Audrey'
While I can afford to have breakfast at Tiffany's, this starving college student is still saving up her paychecks to cash in for a coveted piece of their fine jewelry. Thanks to China Glaze, dreamers like myself can experience the luxury life at our fingertips! 'For Audrey' is an elegant and radiant shade of turquoise blue, inspired by the iconic Tiffany's boxes. This creamy nail polish offers great quality and pigmentation. All you need is to apply one coat and boom! Instant colour! 'For Audrey' is the perfect pastel shade for Spring. If only the Vancouver weather would cooperate as well...

Sephora by OPI Goes Gleek Chic with Glee Nail Polish Collection

Riding high on the successful launches of Katy Perry and Justin Bieber's branded lines, OPI has added a new pitch-perfect phenomena to its roster of star-studded nail polish partnerships. That's right, Twentieth Century Fox and Sephora have teamed up to develop an exclusive, limited-edition collection of nail products inspired by the hit comedy-musical television show, Glee!
Available February 3rd at all major Sephora locations in the U.S. and Canada, the limited-edition Sephora by OPI GLEE Collection Nail Colours will include individual full sized polishes and a six-piece mini-set featuring three exclusive shades. The Sephora by OPI GLEE Collection Chic Prints for Nails Design Appliques will be available in three GLEE-inspired designs. The launch will coincide with the highly-anticipated Superbowl episode of GLEE, airing on February 6th on FOX.
The ten show-stopping hues (with clever names paying an homage to the pop culture phenomenon's eclectic cast, dynamic performances and comedic dialogue) include Miss Bossy Pants (rich raspberry), Slushied (opaque blue), Celibacy Club* (glimmering diamond top coat), Gleek Out (glittery lime green), Sue Vs Shue* (electric navy blue), Express Yourself to Yourself* (shimmery coral), Mash-Up (pearlescent green-grey), Hello to the No! (pizzazz purple), Who Let the Dorks Out? (peacock blue) and Diva-in-Training (poppy pink). *mini set exclusive
As a nail varnish junkie and self-processed Gleek myself, I am definitely singing my praises over this glamorous collaboration! It's like the duet of my dreams, a la Barbra Streisand and Judy Garland's Get Happy/Happy Days Are Here Again (also paid tribute to on Glee by divas-in-training Rachel Berry (Lea Michele) and Kurt Hummel (Chris Colfer). These vibrant shades look very promising ("Slushied" and "Gleek Out" in particular) but of course, I'll need to see the actual swatches in order to judge which colourful contestants have made enough of a statement to advance to this season's beautified Sectionals (to be held on my make-up counter).
