OPI Summer Crush Blush

 Hello Lovelies!

I picked up this pretty pink OPI called Summer Blush Crush when I was in Ulta in California last month.  I actually hadn't heard of it so I looked it up and I can't really find any info on it.  It looks like it's maybe an Ulta exclusive.  Does anyone know anything about it?

Summer Crush Blush is the prettiest bright but soft bubblegum pink with fine white shimmer.  Great formula, I used two coats for my swatch.

Have a great day lovelies!

Essie Drip Marble Manicure

Hello Lovelies!

I have an all Essie Drip Marble Mani to share with you.  I still need to make a tutorial for these drip manis.  They really are some of the easiest nail art ever!  The color combos are endless.

I used all Essie polishes for this one.  My pointer finger is Go Ginza, my pinkie finger is Go Overboard and the other colors in the drip part are Aim To Misbehave, Where's My Chauffeur? and Urban Jungle.

Have a great day lovelies!

ILNP Misbehaving Swatch and Review

Hello Lovelies!

Today is my birthday!  I received a package from ILNP yesterday, I entered a contest on their Instagram page and won the beautiful polish Misbehaving!  It showed up yesterday, just in time for my birthday.

Misbehaving is a beautiful hot pink jelly with fabulous holo shreds.  Perfect birthday nails!  The formula was perfect, so easy to work with.  I did 3 coats of this jelly to build up the pink up a bit.

Thank you so much ILNP for this gorgeous polish!  You can purchase ILNP polishes on their website here.

Have a great day lovelies!

OPI Don't Cry Over Spilled Milkshakes

Hey Dolls

I picked up OPI Don't Cry Over Spilled Milkshakes from the Grease Collection the other day.

I was really intrigued by the undertones of this pretty white polish.  To my eyes it has a very slight green tint to it.  The formula was easy to work with, a little on the watery side but it still covered fine in two coats.

Do you love white polishes as much as I do?  I feel like I need ALL the white OPI's!

Have a great day lovelies!

Summer Smoosh Manicure

Hiya Dolls!

I have a bright and cheery Summer Smoosh Mani to show you today.

I used all OPI polishes for this look.  I put a base coat of OPI Ulta Ego which is a beautiful white crelly.  The four other poishes I used are Is that a Spear in Your Pocket?, Kerry Blossom. GPS I Love You and Santa Monica Beach Peach.

I added some gold leaf because gold leaf just makes everything better!

I was inspired by @Justinecollins_ for the colors of this smoosh mani!

Have a great day lovelies!

Blue and Coral Drip Marble Mani

 Hiya Dolls!

I couldn't wait to do another Drip Marble Manicure! 

My pinkie finger is Sally Hansen Swim Upstream, my ring finger is Sally Hansen After Altar.  I used those polishes and Sally Hansen Arm Candy, One in a Melon and Glam Polish Once Upon a Dream.

To create a Drip Marble Manicure, you need a few polishes (I usually choose 4-5) and a piece of plastic to drop the polishes onto.  You put little drops of each polish onto the plastic and then pick it up and move it from side to side so the polishes all swirl together.  I keep turning the polishes until I see a design that I like.  Let it dry for 6 hours or so and then peel the design off the plastic.  I put a base coat on my nail and then while it is still wet I place the design on my nail and squish it down!

Have a great day lovelies!

Zoya Element Collection, Fall 2018

SAMPLES

Hey Dolls!

I have the gorgeous new Zoya Element Collection for Fall 2018 to share with you today.  The stunning colors in this sultry collection are right up my alley!

The formula on all of these polishes are amazing, and I have to come to expect nothing less from Zoya!   The creams are almost one coaters, I did two coats for my swatches but you could easily get away with 1 if you load up your brush and apply carefully.  

First up is the gorgeous Jenna, a dusty rose pink cream with blue undertones.  Fantastic formula, this beauty is so pigmented!

Rumor is a stunning mauve top with very fine shimmer running throughout.  Rumor is very frosty so you're going to have some brush strokes.  This one dries super fast so you need to be fast when you apply!

Ruthie is a fabulous muted raspberry rose cream.  This is one of my faves for sure.  A killer formula, you can almost get away with one coat.

Maryann is a pink toned rose with stunning pink shimmer.  I love this shade, that shimmer is so gorgeous and makes this polish unique to me!

Kendra is described as a marsala cream.  It is a sultry deep mauve that I can't get enough of.  This one is so pigmented, almost a one coater.

Alyssa is a beautiful cranberry shade with purple undertones.  Another one that is so pigmented, I used two coats just to deepen the color.

Donnie is a rich sangria purple cream.  Very pigmented polish!

Maeve is a gorgeous deep concord grape purple cream.  Such a stunning shade for Fall.

Rachel is a vampy deep red.  This beauty is so pigmented so watch your cuticles, she stains!  Such a gorgeous shade for Fall!

Leighton is a deeply saturated vampy purple!  This one stains your cuticles as well, so apply carefully!

Devin is a beautiful steel blue with multicolored shimmer flecks.  I used three coats of this one to cover my nail line completely.

Gardner is a dark periwinkle blue with magenta shimmer flecks.  This one covered well in two coats.

So what do you think of the Element Collection for Fall 2018?  I am in love!  Even though I'm still loving Summer, this makes me excited for the coming season!

You can purchase the Element Collection on Zoya's website here.

Have a great day lovelies!
