Dollar Tree Find: OPI Comet In The Sky

Dollar Tree is carrying OPI polish. At my store I picked up OPI Comet In The Sky from the Gwen Stefani Holiday 2014 Collection. Comet In The Sky is a clear base with different size black and iridescent glitter.

I decided to start off with a base of Illyrian Why Are You Still Bleeding? This is a deep red jelly/crème polish. I applied two coats.

I applied two coats Comet In The Sky using a sponge. The iridescent glitter picks up the light in strange ways.

Review: Curlformers Glam-up Kit for Barrel Curls

I purchased the Curlformers Glam-up Kit for Barrel Curls from Amazon. The set comes with 16 curformers, 1 glittery styling hook, 1 organza bag to hold curlformers, and instruction leaflet. There are 8 curlformers that curl to the right (gold line) and 8 that curl to the left.

You place the hook through the curlformer. The hook then loops onto a small section of wet hair, then you pull the hook out of the curlformer. You can air dry or use a hooded dryer.

There is a learning curve to using this product. My hair got snagged several time with pulling the hook out of the curlformer. I was taking larger sections of hair because the amount of curlformers is not enough to cover my whole head using the small sections that is recommended.

I choose to air dry. Removing the curlformers was easy, simply pinch the ends to open the curlformer, straighten it and slide down.

I liked how my hair came out. The curls came out well defined. It is a great way to get curls without heat. But I would definitely need to get at least two more of these kits to cover my head properly.

Swatch: China Glaze Tip Your Hat

Sharing a swatch of Tip Your Hat from China Glaze. Tip Your Hat is a crème red polish. The formula was great. I had no issues with application. I did only one coat and topped it off with Seche Vite.

It stamps well over light colors but not so great over black.  Overall, it is a nice red to have in your collection.
