Red Dog Designs Swatches

Hey everyone!

Hope you are all having an awesome day today. If not, maybe some eye candy from Red Dog Designs will brighten your day! They are pretty amazing. Let's take a look!

Be Careful, It's My Heart is a mixture of blue, gold and some silver glitters. I layered one coat over Color Club Worth the Risque. Super pretty!

I Love Paris is a unique mixture of glitters in a clear base. I layered one coat over Zoya Breezi. This one is a favorite, I think. Also, please excuse the huge glitter on the skin of my pinky....I'm not sure  how I missed that through clean-up and photos...oops.

And finally, we have Young At Heart. As soon as I saw this one in the bottle, I knew I would love it and I was not disappointed! I layered one coat over Zoya Ali. The colors in Young At Heart are my favorites so seeing them all together just made me happy. :)

This was my first time using polish from Red Dog Designs and I really enjoyed it...the polishes look great in pics but once you see them in person they are even better! All of the polishes had a great formula and the hearts weren't that hard to maneuver in place.

There are 6 more polishes in this collection and you can see more swatches on the Red Dog Designs Facebook page! This upcoming collection, called Ol' Blue Eyes is going to be available Friday January 25 @ 9pm EST in the shop, *here*. You don't want to miss out on these!

F4 Polish Swatches and Review

Hey everyone!

Today I have swatches of polishes from F4 to show you today. I have purchased from them a few times before and have never been disappointed! They are always super willing to make a custom listing if I need it and have quick shipping. Not to mention, awesome polish! :)  So let's take a look at a few of their creations!

First, is Tomboy. This is 2 coats over Orly Frisky. You could probably wear this without the underwear in more coats as well. Check out the tiny blue flakie pieces in this! I also really love the glitter color combo Tomboy.

Next, is Melt Me. This is the unexpected favorite for me! Everything seems to work together so well in this polish. I love what the light green glitters do for the overall effect. This is 2 coats over Milani White on the Spot. 

And finally, this is Pinkadoodle. You could call this one Tomboy's cousin, since it's the same concept.

This is 2 coats over OPI Pink Friday. This is a fun, girly polish for sure! This also has the little flakies in the base that are super cool looking.

Kawaii Nail Lacquer Swatches and Review

Hey guys!

It's Friday, finally! And the sun is finally out after an entire week of clouds...very refreshing. 

I have some swatches from Kawaii Nail Lacquer to share with you today. This is my first experience with this brand, but I have worked with Jamie (the owner) before and she is super sweet.  For reference, the formula for all of these were great!

First is Tequila Rose. This is 2 coats over China Glaze Make Some Noise. Love the slight jelly look this has!

This is Salad Daze. I did one coat over Orly Fresh. Another coat would have given it a more milky look, but either way I think this one is super fun!

Next is Pink Blizzard. Love the name! I layered one coat over Sally Hansen Insta Dri Grape Escape. This one could go over tons of colors and look great.

And finally is Blow My Dress Up. I was really drawn to the combo of glitters in this one. Here is one coat over CND Asphalt.  Look at the cute little tiny bars in there!

Do you own any Kawaii Nail Lacquer? What are your favorites from the ones I showed you today?

Kawaii Nail Lacquer can be purchased on Esty *here*. Be sure to follow their Facebook page as well! There is usually some kind of coupon code floating around. ;)

Periwinkle Skittles

Hey guys!

This mani wasn't really a favorite of mine. It looked good in my head, but I feel like it's missing something that would complete it!

Here's what I used: China Glaze 2Nite, Maya Cosmetics It Can't Rain All the Time, and OPI I Don't Give a Rotterdam. 

I'm not sure what I would have done differently. Probably added something else to it to tie it all together? Oh well! 

Zoya Frida + Jordana Celestial Jelly Sandwich

Hi guys!

It's been nothing but really cold and cloudy lately, which is getting in the way of my swatching big time! But luckily I have quite a few nail pics backlogged so I can keep up the 5 day/week posting. :)

When I first saw the Zoya Gloss polishes I wasn't very impressed. But I can't say no to teal so I ended up getting Frida during a promo a while back. Although it takes a lot of coats to get decent coverage, the overall effect is worth it. I layered Jordana Celestial in between my coats of Frida. Love how it turned out!!

Do you guys love jelly sandwiches or are you over them?

Upcoming Daring Digits New Releases Swatches

Hello polish lovers!

Today I've got a couple swatches from Daring Digits to show you. These will be released in the very near future according to their Facebook page.

First is Druid. The base is pretty sheer, so you could easily layer this over a purple creme to cut down on the amount of coats you need. I did 4 here with no underwear. My camera had a hard time capturing this one because on top of the glitter there's a blue-ish shimmer! You can kind of see it in my 2nd photo.

And this is Amber! I'm excited because that's my name! haha This is quite the complex color...below you can see it in normal light:

But when it gets sunlight or camera flash (what you see here), look what happens! This awesome green flash appears as well as some holo bits. I was surprised at how cool it looks even though you wouldn't think brown and green look good together. haha This was more on the sheer side as well and I believe I did 4 coats, but I think 3 could have been good enough.

You can see more of the upcoming releases for Daring Digits in the shop *here* and like the Facebook page to stay updated on all things Daring Digits!

Kleancolor Metallic Green + Hit Polish Citrus Salad

Hey everyone!

Hope you all had a great weekend. :) The mani I am showing you today is very summery.... it kind of just happened that way, I wasn't really aiming for it since it hasn't been summertime where I live for quite a while now! haha

Anyway, I used Kleancolor Metallic Green with Hit Polish Citrus Salad on top. I sliced a few citrus fimos and used them as an accent. Makes me wish I was sitting by the pool with a tropical drink in hand! ;)

Do you like my unseasonal mani?
