NOX twilight "Wine & Dine"
I told you I'd be back with more NOX! This is 2 coats of "Wine & Dine"...

From looking at the bottle, I imagined this polish would have a silver and champagne speckled finish... I immediately thought of Edward's glimmering skin in the sunlight!... So naturally, I was super excited about this unusual polish and swatched it first! Turns out, it looks very different on the nail. This is actually a foil.
I DO like this color. I think it would be a good polish for conservative work environments. I definitely should have used a ridge filler though. The shimmers in this polish catch the light and show every peeling corner of my nails! Uh! I think my base coat was drying out my nails! Anyone have any good suggestions?
[Above] See what I mean about the finish looking completely different?... But I LIKED the way it looked in the bottle!!! So... I added some silver glitter! :)
Ahhhh! So pretty!
(This product sample was sent to me for consideration)

i like it!
When it comes to twilight inspired polishes i prefered the ones from esscence (of course i don't own any i'm just talking for what i've seen in swatches from different blogs). Their colours can be more related to twilight and the names they have are awesome :p.
Starlight- Yah, me too! It's a good classic color.
Yombix- I agree with you on the names... but their colors are pretty safe. AND they only have 5 to choose from. NOX has 12 different shades...
That looks totally different in the first picture (light box?) vs your outdoor pics. Either way, it's a great color.
Megan- Yah, I hate taking outdoor photographs of nail polish! The sun is too strong (doesn't help that I took it at noon!)... The polish looks silver in the outside shots but that is just the silver in the foil reflecting the light. It definitely has a pinkish color in real life! I ALWAYS think my lightbox pictures are better :) Thanks for your comment :)
Great colour!

Last two posts have been interesting. This polish seems very unique. I totally agree with you with the names! Will be interesting to see if they'll do more NOX product placement in the upcoming films. Hate to see this brilliant series is becoming another Harry Potter though :(
Yum, these look very nice!
I actually like this better on the bottle than on the nails!
Ah guess what! I found a dupe for Sugar plum in my collection! And guess it's name...Vamp! LoL...
It's pretty! I like it more with the added glitter in the last picture :D
this would be a good color for me (conservative work environment!) I think it's pretty. I like the shimmer and hint of pink.
wow!! amazing!!
That is too pretty! Very flattering, too!
This is a pretty color. And I LOVE the bottle. That looks like some serious metal on the front, so cool.
Also, I am hoping to enter one of your contests soon, but I'm not very creative. This vampire one, I don't know, I'll try to put myself in the mindset of a vampire haha!
Also, do you ever have the issues where you can't get blogs that you follow to show up on your blogroll (for me, that's how i truly follow and read the blogs). Or it doesn't even show up on the blogs you follow, that's happened for me with a few blogs. I've been having that problem with your blog. I'm telling you this not because I think there's anything wrong with your blog but to let you know I really like your blog, but I forget about it. I think I've "come across it for the first time" about 3 times, so hopefully I'll figure it out.
Nevermind, I've figured it out. I'll be visiting so much more now. I think it just takes about a day.
With every swatch you do, I'm more and more tempted to get the whole set!! You're killin' me!
What glitter polish did you add? I see a bottle of China Glaze in the background, was it Tinsel? (I hope so, I have that one!)
