NOTD: Misa Spinning Out of Control & China Glaze Liquid Crystal

Today I am sharing with you two polishes. One I have owned for over a year and one that is very new.  I came across Misa Spinning Out Of Control via a blogger that has some of the best pictures in the beauty blogger world, Lacquerized. Sadly, she has pretty much stopped blogging. I can only hope that she will someday return.  Misa Spinning Out Of Control, from the What I Like About You collection, is a gorgeous blue purple. In the bottle & direct sunlight, there is a faint blue & pink micro shimmer.  Misa is a brand that I don't hear much about but it really needs to get more camera time.  It's formula is amazing. I achieved bottle color with only 1 coat. It's not often you find a true 1-coater.  But out of habit, these pictures are 2 coats.  I really need to add more Misa polishes to my collection.

As an accent nail, I am wearing for the first time, one of China Glaze's latest polishes from their Prismatic Collection, Liquid Crystal.  Liquid Crystal is a gorgeous blue/purple duochrome, holographic glitter. I must admit, it's the first duochrome glitter I've ever seen.  It contains multi-sized and multi-colored glitter.  I am really liking the China Glaze glitters. Recently there was Lorelei's Tiara from the Eye Candy collection of 2011.  The Prismatic Collection are very similar to Lorelei's Tiara. I need them all.  They are due to hit the shelves April, 2012, but I hear that they have been seen already.
