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.

 

 



Shimmer Polish Brooklyn

Hiya Dolls

 

I've got a beautiful Shimmer Polish to share with you today.  This is Brooklyn (one of my faves!)

 

 

Brooklyn has large gold hex glitters, with smaller purple and green hexes, all mixed in with micro teal glitter.  For my accent pinky, I have two coats of Brooklyn (with no undies!)  I love how dense the glitters are in all Shimmer polishes.

 

My base is China Glaze Peachy Keen.  Studs are from Claires.

 

 Brooklyn is really versatile, I feel like it could go with any polish!

 

 

Shimmer polishes can be purchased on Etsy here or on the website www.shimmyshimmer.com

 



Twinsie Tuesday Something New

Hey Dolls

 

For Twinsie Tuesday this week the theme is 'Something New'.  I knew right away that I wanted to try the Water Fall Nail Art from The Nailasaurus.  It's new and fresh and I loooove the design.

 

This was my first try and I did it on my 7 day old mani.  Yes you read that right!  This is the longest I've ever worn a polish for and I only had a bit of tip wear and growth, not even one chip!  I liked the first try so much I decided to just use this for my mani this week.  I will for sure be doing more of these!

 

My base is Barry M Gelly Hi-Shine in Prickly Pear.  For my stripes I used China Glaze For Audrey and Peachy Keen, and Clinique Strappy Sandals.  I used a thin brush for the stripes, next time I will do them thinner so I can add more lines.
