I actually am doing a similar thing. I am trying for pink polish or lipstick every day except for the week of Halloween. I cannot resist a good theme nail time.

Temptation Carnation by China Glaze.

It's light and neutral enough for the job interview I have today, but it has a nice shimmer so that it's not completely boring.

Not my nails:

I was going to order the pink/Breast Cancer Awareness nail polish from Avon but I went with the dark blue to support Awareness on the issue of Domestic Abuse. At the end of this week I will revert to Hang Ten Toes by China Glaze (that's the neon pink) and wear that for the rest of the month. I wish I had a breast cancer pin. Oh, but I did order an awareness bracelet from Avon, I hope they're not sold out.

Jamaica Me Crazy from Pure Ice

It's a deep, bold shade of fuschia/magenta.

This polish is on my toes. I don't keep my fingernails polished unless I get shellac at the nail shop.

I just uploaded. Who knows.

I won't be doing pink the whole month. I still have a bad taste in my mouth about the whole Komen thing. Also, I at least have to do one Halloween one. I'll probably do one pink one.

So far so good. Monday I put on CG Up All Night with indy Sea Creature over it. One coat each is fantastic. Nothing has started peeling off yet!!! I'm getting excited only 4 days in but it's usually day 2 I see the polish starting to lift up, it's been happening with all polishes I've tried lately. I'll try to remember to post a pic after work.

Avon's Pink Power on my ring finger, topped with Wet 'n' Wild Mega Last in Hallucinate. The other fingers are Revlon Speed Dry in Orchid (more of a toe nail suitable color I think).

The formula of Pink Power is a little difficult to work with, IMO. My sister-in-law used it and her nails looked awesome though, so I guess it just takes a couple coats, focus and patience.

My favorite part was taking the pics.

Pre clean-up (I was eager for the pics):
