Chi Chi – DonR...

Every single lacquer this week has been selected by my beautiful Boo. We were in Target and he decided he wanted to pick out some 'colours' for me. So, you know, blame him if this little experiment turns to caca.

Chi Chi – High He...

Chi Chi jumps on the magic mushroom shade wagon and totally pulls it off. If you're looking for a cheap but utterly sophisticated little lacquer, that would suit any occasion, High Heeled Housewife is it.

Chi Chi Miss Personalit...

Ahhh Chi Chi. Who else is having an immediate mental association with Chi Chi Rodriguez, the character from that classic, hilarious film 'To Wong Foo, Thanks for Everything, Julie Newmar' right now? Ok, it's just me. Under the jump is Miss Personality, and a Morning Rose side by side comparison.

Chi Chi – Moondus...

I first saw Chi Chi’s Moondust on Pretty Random.  It has always been the standout of the Chi Chi lacquer stable so, when I finally saw some on sale in Target, I picked up a few couple. For the first time ever on YGN, I’m tempted to swear. No really.  This is...

Product Review – ...

Something a little different for you guys today. If you’ve been reading YGF for a while, you’ll have noticed that my application skills are pretty…. well…. crap. Let’s be honest here. I have walked past Chi Chi’s Eye Magic for ages and never indulged....

Chi Chi – Before ...

Woohoooo! After the disappointment that was Boom Boom Boom, I’m so glad that Before You Go Go is a neon coral delight! This is an absolutely stunning lacquer.  Ok, so it’s still sheer after three coats but I can live with a little visible nail line if the rest of the...

Chi Chi – Boom Bo...

Boom Boom Boom is not so much a neon purple as much as it is a dusty pink.  As much as I tried to get this to bottle colour (the swatch here is four coats), it never quite happened.  I suspect I would need at least 7-8 coats to get to bottle colour and, really, who has the time...

Chi Chi – Jitterb...

Oh, how much do I love my Essie Matte About You. I could not have predicted how lovely Jitterbug would look once it was matte-ified.  It loses the shine that I loved about the lacquer, but it gets replaced with something that is just so modern, and cute, and perfect for our...

Chi Chi – Jitterb...

One of the things I like most about the Chi Chi neons is the jelly quality. Even once they are dry, the lacquer still looks almost wet on the nail.  And, I don’t know about you guys, but I love the feel of uber shiny nails.  Jitterbug is one of those lacquers that I...

Chi Chi – Choose ...

Mmmm, just when I think I’m getting better at this – BANG! – a nail wreck emerges. This is Choose Chi Chi, paired with Relax Don’t Do It as a Konad stamp. I think I had the right idea.  Blue on orange is a great combination.  However, and you experts in...
