China Glaze - No Way Jose

Hi guys! Today I'm going to show you one of my new favorite polishes.
I have been wanting this one for a long time.

I saw this one around on some blogs a while ago and added it to my wishlist, along with a few other older China Glaze polishes. I never thought I would actually get around to buying them, but on my birthday last month I decided to buy myself a little present!


Okay so maybe it wasn't a little present.
I wanted No Way Jose. And 100 Proof Pink. And then I realized I could get Shaken Not Stirred for just $6. And then no one bid on Drinkin' My Blues Away... So I got that one too. Shipping combined on all of them.
If you average my total I paid around $9 per polish. That's not really a lot. A lot of polishes retail for more than that when brand new, and these are old and harder to get!

I'll be showing you my favorite (and the one I paid the most for...) first.


China Glaze - No Way Jose. Do I regret this purchase? No way Jose!
The first photo is the most color accurate.


I think it is the shimmer in this polish that really had me hooked. The shimmer is so interesting, and I don't think it is very common.


It's just so pretty. It's a bit sheer, this was 3 coats, and I could have done a 4th.


I just adore this polish. It is the perfect shade of purple, with perfect shimmer.
Super stoked to have this in my collection!

I'll be posting about the other 3 polishes in my next 3 posts so keep an eye out for them!

P.S. Remember my melmers? I bought 2 more... They were on sale, and I am about to run out of room in my first two, so it was good timing!
So it's time to decorate! Once I get it all done, I'll be showing you guys an updated collection and storage post. I know how everyone likes those!

Goodnight <3

    I got No Way Jose for $2 at a nail supply store. While I loved it in the bottle, I'm not a huge fan of it for my skin tone.

    wow, if you think that buying 4 polishes is a "big" gift to yourself, I won't even tell you how big my hauls can get. LOL

    These are all GORGEOUS polishes!! They're really tasty! * rummages through you blog to find swatches of these polishes* I've already seen 100 Proof Pink, now I have to figure out what other 2 are called. ;)
