Pretty & Polished Jawbreaker

Hey everyone! Happy Saturday. Today I have a polish to show you that you've all seen a ton but that's okay because it's so cool. I'm a sucker for white polishes like this. Pretty & Polished Jawbreaker is a white polish with different color and size glitters. There's red, blue, yellow and some green in there. It honestly looks just like those huge jawbreakers you can buy at the candy store. This is three coats of Jawbreaker. Next time just to speed things up I may do a coat of white first then two of the polish but three coats was still really workable. My pictures were taken in overcast skies unfortunately. It's normally sunny all the time here but we're having some freak storm and I haven't seen the sun in two days.

I'm sure you all know where to go to buy Pretty & Polished polishes but here's the link to the etsy shop. I hope you all have a great day!

Orly Go Deeper

Shade

Good morning! How was your long weekend? We had a great, relaxing weekend here. That's my favorite kind. Today I have a polish that I've been wanting since I first saw a swatch of it a while back. Someone described it as a toned down teal version of Across the Universe (but I can't remember who). I knew it had to be mine but I couldn't find it anywhere. Even online it only came up on Orly's website and was over $10 with shipping. I'm not sure that it's been released yet to regular retailers. My friend, Heartfully, Janelle, offered to look while at one of our favorite nail supply stores and they had it. So freakin excited and it was cheap. So take a look. This is two coats of Go Deeper over one coat of China Glaze Custom Kicks. This polish really changes depending on what you put it over. I tried it on a wheel over Zoya Ibiza and it looks like a completely different polish.

Major swoon going on over here. I love this polish so much. What do you think of the Orly Glam FX that have been coming out? I have a few but this is my favorite. Have a great Tuesday!

KBShimmer Watercolor

Sun

Hello! Is everyone enjoying the long weekend? We've just been hanging out, having some family time. We did family movie night last night and the boys picked The Three Stooges for us to watch. Not my favorite but they liked it. Anyway on to the reason you're here. Today I have KBShimmer Watercolor to show you. Supposedly Watercolor can be worn on it's own in three or so coats but I really don't like wearing that much glitter so I layered two coats of Watercolor over China Glaze Splish Splash. I really liked this mani. The formula of Watercolor was great. Plenty of glitter payoff and no super bald spots.
