In the bottle shots, you can see difference between the shorter handles on the ones in the sets at Rosss (which I have to swap for, being Ross-deprived here in Michigan) versus the individual bottles I got from other sources. One of my NYX Girls is the older bottle style, which isn't as modern looking or efficient to store but which I like more than the new bottles because it seems more girly and fitting for the brand.

Recent NOTD: NYX and Sinful Layered Look

I started this recent mani with a brownish rose creme from NYX. Two coats of it looked like this:



The name of this rosy two-coater? Sheer Lavender. One might think the bottle is mislabeled, except this color is shown with this name on the NYX website, so evidently they meant to call it that. Why on earth they chose that name for this polish I can't imagine, unless they were going with a "two wrongs makes a right" approach.



I couldn't leave it be, so added two coats of Sinful I Miss You on top and got this:





Speaking of mislabeling, when pawing through my glitters to find I Miss You, I discovered I have two bottles of it.



The biggest difference between them is one is labeled Red Ocean.



Calling it Red Ocean does not make it have flakies, sadly enough.
