 some pr samples

I ordered a few fun polishes from Harlow & Co and I'm in love with all of them.

The first one is ILNP Empress, a gorgeous rose gold flakie topper.  I put one coat of Empress over top of OPI <3 to Party.

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!

Pink Week Breast Cancer Awareness, Day 3

Hiya Dolls,

 

We are on day 3 of Pink Week Mani's for Breast Cancer Awareness. 

Today I have an OPI Heart Throb jelly sandwich.  This is such a beautiful pink jelly.  Again I used ILNP Gold Everything as the glitter to my sandwich.  I just can't get enough of those beautiful circle glitters.

 

Fact four:

 

 



Pink Week for Breast Cancer Awareness

Hey Dolls

 

October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month and I am joining in with my fellow bloggers to post a pink mani everyday for a week to spread awareness.  Along with our pretty mani's we are sharing important facts about breast cancer and early detection.  I have already learned from these facts, and I hope they will help you as well.

 

For my first mani I did a jelly sandwich using an unamed Sally Girl polish and I Love Nail Polish Gold Everything.  The circle glitter in Gold Everything is my absolute fave! 

 

First fact:



 







Random Swatches

Hey Dolls!

 

I've got some random swatches to show you guys.  First up is I Love Nail Polish What The Funk.  Glitters in a white base are a real weakness of mine.  What The Funk as large bright and dark green hex glitters, and smaller orange and green glitters in a milky base.  Yum yum.

 

I have been on the search for a soft peach polish for a while now.  Why are they so hard to find?  So when I found Peachy Keen by China Glaze, I grabbed it quick.  Application was a little tricky because the polish was so thick, (I've added a bit of thinner and it really helped). 

 





Next up is Clinique Yellow Genious.  This yellow is so beautiful, two coats was all I needed for perfect coverage.

 



 

I love this bright fuschia purple by Revlon.  Plum Seduction has the perfect formula, it could've been a one coater, but I did two for good measure!  My ring finger is Joe Starry, a really pretty silver with holo bits.

 



I picked up this Sally Hansen the other day for $2.00, I love a good deal.  Greige Gardens is a purple based grey cream.  I added some pink shards to the tips with Fing'rs Rose Gold Knock-Off.

 



 

And last but not least is Hard Candy Sweet Tooth.  Sweet Tooth as pink, blue and silver glitters in a milky white base.  I used a white base coat first for this swatch.

 

 



I Love Nail Polish, My Private Rainbow

Hey Dolls!

 

I am a huge fan of Barbra, the creator of I Love Nail Polish.  As soon as I saw My Private Rainbow, (such a cute name!) which is a linear holo topcoat, I knew I had to have it!  I love that you can turn ANY polish into a holo.

 

 

This is just one smooth coat over NYC Times Square.  Indoor lighting, no top coat.

The holo really comes out to play in the sunshine.  The linear effect is a bit subtle, but the holo sparklies are very pretty.  Next time, I will try two coats of MPR.

 



 

And here is my base coat, NYC Times Square.  I love this pink-toned red!
