Friday Favorites: Comet Vomit Nail Polish

I am not typically one to do 'Friday Favorites'. I have always done product reviews randomly, under the title of 'Get Pretty Reviews', or, for non-beauty related products, 'Stuff I Love Saturdays'. I figured I would try something different out, and maybe find at least one thing a week I want to talk about!

One of my best friends in this whole world, Tiffany, is a lot of things. A few years ago, she decided she wanted to learn to bake cakes, like Ace of Cakes. She did it. She started cycling seriously because she wanted to - she inspires me to go after everything I want. Earlier this year, she became interested in nail art, and in that different nail polishes. As her collection grew, she learned about how nail polish was made up. Just like with cakes, she very recently taught herself how to make her own! She chose the name Comet Vomit, and you can find the beginning of her line on Etsy here. She opened the shop just a couple of weeks ago, and had a lot of support from the Reddit community starting out.


Imagine my surprise when she texted me to tell me that she was making me my very own blend of her new polish! All of it has great space-y names, like "Protect Ya Holodeck" and "Hubble Bubble", just to name a couple. My blend is called "Planet Packer", after my favorite football team and the beloved team of my hometown, the Green Bay Packers. It was a bit more awesome before they got creamed this past weekend, but let's not talk about that.

With a light green sparkly base, there were a couple of different colors of green chunky glitter, and it went on easily and was easy to layer. She told me I could put it over something else, and I decided not to. I just layered it a couple of times, and came out with a great result. I topped it with an OPI fast-dry top coat, and to be honest, it didn't even chip or crack for over a week! I was mad about the game and wanted to take it off, to be honest!

All that being said, if you are looking for a new, different polish, try these! I promise, you will not be disappointed.
