Picture Polish Whimsy

Good morning!  Today I have my very first Picture Polish.  I've heard great things about this brand and have wanted to try it for a long time.  I finally broke down and bought Whimsy.  Oh my wow!  This polish is so so pretty in real life.  It looks good in the photos but in person it's amazing.  This is three coats of Whimsy and topcoat.  When I put the first coat on I thought I was going to be so disappointed in this polish.  Second coat still didn't have me convinced but the third one made it perfect.

It's just so pretty!  I wore this a while back so my nails are a bit shorter than what I showed you the other day.  Honestly in a few weeks you'll probably be seeing nails this length from me all the time.  I'm changing jobs and it's going to be pretty hard on my nails, so shorter will be better for me.  Anyway, what is your favorite Picture Polish?  I picked up Paradise on a blog sale recently but I really want some more.  Have a great day!

Hit Polish Nail Lacquer Peachy Keen

Press Sample

Happy Monday lovelies!  Today I have another Hit Polish Nail Lacquer that I received for review.  I'd like you to meet Peachy Keen.  My photos are all of three coats and topcoat.  I actually wish I would have stopped at two coats.  Yes there is a bit of VNL but it gave me a really cool mannequin hands with glitter look.  This is really outside the normal realm of my polish choices but I totally loved the look it gave me.

The formula was very good.  I was expecting it to thicken up on me a bit while I was using it, between the three coats and the freaky humid weather here, but it did not at all.  Each coat applied very smoothly and the glitter laid flat.

If you'd like to pick up this lovely polish or one of the many other pretties from Hit Polish, click here.  You can also keep up to date with all the goings on by giving a like on facebook.  I hope you all enjoyed today's polish.  I have one more to show you later this week.

Until next time...

Bettina Orchidea

Hey guys!  Quickie post for ya today.  This is Bettina Orchidea, basically the perfect light mint color.  Bettina makes great creams and this was no exception, two coats and topcoat shown here.  I used chevron decals from Make It Stick on my accent nail.

I think my accent nail kinda looks like an easter egg.  I'm not convinced that's a good thing in this case.  The bubbles on my nail are from my topcoat.  Not sure what happened there.

Have a great day!

Julep Etta

Hello lovely readers!  Today I have a polish to show you that was picked out by my 10 year old.  He loves green so I think that's why this one was picked.  This is Julep Etta, a lovely light green metallic polish.  This has a foil finish look to it that is just one of my favorite finishes.  This is three coats of Etta with topcoat.  Sometimes polish can get gloopy with this many coats but that was not the case here.  Super easy to work with.

I just love how soft and delicate this green is.  I can also see this being a great base for glitters.  I will definitely be wearing this again.  I know people either love or hate Julep for some reason.  Overall I've really enjoyed the polishes of theirs I've worn.

Have a great day!
