Sinful Colors Beautiful Girl + Lush Lacquer Party Hearty

I have had this polish sitting in my untrieds for a realllly long time (the bitter cycle of never not buying new polish!) and finally got around to wearing it recently!

I have been a longtime fan of Lush Lacquer and I wasn't disappointed in Party Hearty. I layered one coat over Sinful Colors Beautiful Girl. My favorite part of this has to be the shimmer in Party Hearty's base...gorgeous!




I don't think this one is available in the Etsy store anymore but there are tons more pretties where this came from!

Pinterest Inspired Skittles

I wore this fun skittles mani a while back after seeing this pin. It's almost an exact copy, but I love it!


Along with a black and white creme polish, I used Zoya Anaka with some sponging and stamping.


I love how everything works together to make such a cute look. Pinterest is the best!

China Glaze Don't Be a Luna-tic + Some Housekeeping

Hi!

I have some swatch pics of Don't Be a Luna-tic from the recent China Glaze Hologram collection to show you today. Since I own the OMG collection, this is the only one I picked up but I could go for a few more after trying this one out! In the bottle, these don't look like much. Even on the nail swatches on the display they didn't look very interesting. Once on the nail, however, it comes alive!

This is what Don't Be a Luna-tic looks like most of the time. A metallic-y finish with a visible rainbow. This photo doesn't fully capture that.


In direct sunlight, or when hit with the camera flash, check out what happens! 



I enjoyed wearing this more than I thought I would...can't go wrong with a good holo!

Ok so I wanted to remind you guys of 2 things:

1) My giveaway of Shimmer Polish Kim ends in 2 days! You can enter *here* if you haven't already.

2) I posted about this last night, but just in case you missed it, I updated prices and added new items to my blog sale! There are a bunch of polish and makeup items available. Check it out *here*.

Have a good day!

Wet N Wild How I Met Your Magenta

Hey polish lovers!

I am starting my week off with a simple swatch. My husband got me some storage drawers for the overflow of my stash that had been living in a suitcase for the past year. It was a great opportunity to go through and revisit all the polishes I had been not using as much. I love having them more easily accessible now! My Wet n Wild polishes were in there and I picked out How I Met Your Magenta from the Fast Dry line to wear. I love the golden shimmer in here!



We n Wild is such an awesome brand. They have done a great job of offering new, exciting and (mostly) great quality products for practically nothing.

I swatched the entire Fast Dry Line a couple of years ago...if you want to see that post, click *here*!

A Little Something for You!

Hello again!

I told you earlier I had a small surprise and this is it! Over the past few weeks, I have been reviewing lots of Shimmer Polish. I was sent a duplicate of Kim, which I have already swatched in the past, so Cindy and I decided a giveaway was in order!

Up for grabs is a brand new bottle of Kim, which is definitely one of my favorite Shimmers! Just use the Rafflecopter widget below to enter.



This giveaway is open internationally except the UK and Italy due to shipping risk. :(

Shimmer Polish Swatches-Last Batch!

Hello everyone!

It's been a busy past few days and I am happy to be back to posting today. As you know, I have been showing swatches of lots of Shimmer Polish lately. Today, I have the final batch from the ones I sent to review!

Irene is a mostly champagne glitter with a rainbow of other glitters spread through out. This is 2 coats over OPI Did You 'Ear About Van Gogh?




Next is Tammy. For some reason, I had the hardest time capturing this one! I did one coat over Color Club High Society.



This is Julie. One coat over Orly Frolic. This is a rainbow mix of glitters with a predominant purple throughout.



Not to be confused with Julie, this is Julia. This reminds me of Cinderella's blue dress and glass slippers. I layered one coat over Zoya Natty. Such a pretty polish!



And finally, we have Candace. This is one coat over CND Asphalt which is a dark gray creme. This reminds me of bumblebees (or as my 2 1/2 year old says, "bungle - bees").



Tell me your faves from this bunch!

I have reviewed a bunch of other Shimmer in the past and you can see them all *here* in previous posts.
You can visit Shimmer's Etsy shop *here* and on their blog *here* and like them on Facebook *here*!

Stay tuned for a little surprise later today! ;)


*Polish was sent for review in exchange for my honest opinions.
