Ice Ice Baby: China Glaze Bahama Blues
After a few days of wearing Chanel’s new Haute Chocolat polish on my nails, I was in dire need of something uplifting and light – to suit my mood as well as this extra warm weather in Southern California. I know I haven’t lived here in 7 years but was October always this warm?? I digress..
I decided to pull out China Glaze’s Bahama Blues Collection for Winter 2008. The color story is based on taking us away from cold, wintery weather and tempts us to book that beach vacation. You know the kind where you lay out all day and gaze longingly at the many shades of blue from the ocean and wish your life was like that all the time? Okay, try to come back to reality with me..
In trying to decide which of the six pretty blues from this collection I was going to wear, I was immediately drawn to Blue Island Iced Tea. It’s a silvery, metallic blue with so much glittery bling in it, I didn’t know if I should love it or hate it. Well, now that they’re on my tips, I’ve decided that I LOVE it!
The formula is great. Because of the foil-like finish you get, if you’re not a perfect polisher, it won’t matter because imperfections can be easily looked over. The sparkle factor is phenomenal when you’re outdoors in the natural sunlight. It really reminds of me the sparkling pool where we spent many hours swimming up to the pool bar for cocktails.
Next time I’ll ask the bartender if he can make me a Blue Island Iced Tea to go with my pretty nails 
Get China Glaze at Head2ToeBeauty.com – each bottle is a mere $3. Quite a steal if you’re looking for an escape to the Caribbean, for sure.

Hi Steph,
Global warming does suck indeed.. hopefully our society, with the conscious efforts we’re making now, will help to slow the process.
Hope your Monday is a good one so far!

Hi Nikki,
I had a fun weekend, visiting with more family. Today I hope to go wine tasting. My aunt says that they’re not too far away from her house here.
What did you do over the weekend?

Hi katee,
Thanks so much for stopping by!
I’m in love with the blues from Bahama Blues too. Before this collection, I didn’t think I was a blue polish kinda gal, but I’m lovin’ it!
