Shop My Stash Saturday China Glaze



Good Morning!  I have a quick Shop My Stash post for you today.  I used these colors the other day as a base for my King Triton mani.  The darker color is China Glaze Wagon Trail from the Rodeo Diva Collection.  I adore this color.  A dark olive with pretty golden shimmer.  The formula for me was really good.  Two even coats.  There is no topcoat used in these photos.  My ring finger is China Glaze Fast Track from the Hunger games collection.  Again this is two super easy coats with no topcoat.  I bought Fast Track because I figured I should own a neutral color or two in my collection.  This surprised me in how much I actually like it.  I think I just like anything shimmery.  


I hope you all have a great weekend.  As for me I get to work tonight and run errands today in 110+ degree heat.  Yay!  Feel free to add your own sarcasm to that yay :)

China Glaze Stone Cold



Good morning! Today I have another Hunger Games polish from China Glaze to show you. This beauty is Stone Cold. Stone Cold is a matte gray that is just gorgeous. The formula was super easy to work with. The pictures today are two coats just because of some user error. A steadier hand could probably just do one.

Sorry about the weird silver line on the curve of my middle nail. I got a new clean up brush and am having a hard time adjusting to it. Are you a fan of matte polishes or not?

Have a great day!

China Glaze Riveting



Of all the the Hunger Games polishes I picked up, Riveting is hands down my favorite. Holy glowing orange nail polish! My husband saw it and said "Holy crap that's bright!" Normally he only notices my polish when I shove it under his nose. This is three coats of Riveting. In the pictures you can see some visible nail line but it wasn't really apparent in real life. I absolutely love this polish. I think it'll be a great pedi color this summer.


So are you an orange polish lover? What is your favorite orange? China Glaze Riveting and Zoya Tanzy are at the top of my list.

Hope you are having a great day!

China Glaze Harvest Moon



Good morning lovely readers!

Today I'm excited to show you my second Hunger Games polish, Harvest Moon. I love foil finishes so much and this is no exception. Harvest moon is a gorgeous bronzish/copperish color. It was perfect in two coats. It just lights up in the sun. It looks more copper in the sun and bronze in the shade. Take a look!


Shade

I think this color would look great with Luxe and Lush layered over it. I'm getting so excited for the Hunger Games movie. It will be a date night outing for the husband and me. He's even read the books and really liked them. Talk to you soon and may the odds be ever in your favor.

China Glaze Smoke and Ashes



First I should say that I am a huge Hunger Games fan. I've read the trilogy a few times and just love it. So when it was announced that China Glaze was doing a Hunger Games collection I knew I'd have to have most of them. Today I have Smoke and Ashes to show you. It is an amazing black glass fleck with blue/green shimmer in the right light. The formula was outstanding as well. Two coats made it perfect. You might be able to get away with one thicker coat if you are careful. I added Luxe and Lush, a mylar flakie, to the accent finger. Love! I don't really know that my photos are doing this polish justice but trust me, it is gorgeous. Check it out!



This last photo was taken in the sun. The others were in the shade. I honestly liked how this looked in the shade better.

So have you read the Hunger Games? If you have, do you have any other books to recommend that I may like just as much? Can't wait to show you guys the rest that I've picked up. Have a great day!
