I hope everyone had a good weekend! I’m not sure I’m ready
to start the week yet. I was pretty excited to learn the other day that we just
opened an Ulta in my town. I have to get a lot of my polish off the internet
unless I find time to make a specific trip. The closest Sephora that carries
polish is an hour away… in fact, pretty much everything is an hour away. It’s a
bit of a bummer since I rarely want to pay shipping when SOME DAY I’ll make it
out to get the polish in person!
Anyway, I hurried down to Ulta ASAP to check it out! (And
tried not to look crazy because I was soooo excited!) I picked up Orly Space
Cadet, a few of the new Sally Hansen
polishes that have been floating around, and Butter London: Knackered.
I was SOOOOO thrilled to get my hands on a bottle of
Knackered. I’d seen pictures floating around, and every time I would think meh.
It’s not THAT great. (And thus put off buying it…) After getting a bottle, let
me just tell you, it IS that great. It really is. Knackered is this gorgeous
duo-chrome polish that is sprinkled with holographic glitter bits. It’s really
sheer on its own, although I think you could build it up if you wanted to. I don’t
have the patience for that so I layered it over Julep Viola—a deep,
black-purple.
My pictures are a little off, and I don't have the editing skills to fix them, but this polish has an unmistakable purple-pink shine. My camera wants to make it grey.

This is going to be really picture heavy because none of
these images could do the polish justice.
