KBShimmer Teal Another Tail

Sun

Hi everyone!  Today I have one of my absolute favorite polishes in a long, long time.  This gorgeous polish is KBShimmer Teal Another Tail.  I knew when I saw the first pictures of this that I had to have it.  I just knew that this was perfect for me.  Before I could buy it, a lovely friend that I've gotten to know through some nail groups on facebook, sent it to me.  I'm eternally grateful for this.  When I put this on I was just amazed.  It's my perfect polish!  This is three coats and topcoat.

Seriously my pictures don't really show the amazingness of this polish.  I don't even have words for how much I loved this one.  Are you a KBShimmer fan?  I have a few besides this one that are pretty nice.  What is your favorite KBShimmer polish?

I hope you all have a fantastic day!  Until next time...

China Glaze So Blue Without You



Hey all!  Tonight for your viewing pleasure I have China Glaze So Blue Without You, from the new holiday collection, with an accent nail of Polish Addict Nail Color Rainbow Concrete.  This seemed like an unlikely pair just looking at the bottles but I decided to go for it.  The blue glitters in Rainbow Concrete were a great match to the blue polish.  So Blue Without You was perfect in two coats.  I love foils so much.  They are so easy to use and super opaque.  RC was also good to go in two coats.  You know how some crelly polishes with glitter can be a bit sheer?  This one is not at all.


Sorry I don't have a good sun picture for you.  It was weirdly cloudy when I took these pictures.  I hope you're all having a great evening.

Until next time...

LynBDesigns Blue Moonstone


Hi Everyone!  I have a quickie post tonight of a mani that I was so in love with.  This is LynBDesigns Blue Moonstone with a small accent of LynBDesigns All Holo's Eve.  I'm having a bad blogger moment and I can't remember if this is two or three coats of Blue Moonstone.  I do remember that the formula was smooth and easy to apply.  I had very minimal clean up with this polish.  I bought some cool french tip guides from Born Pretty Store.  They have a few different shapes that give different looks than the typical french tip guide.  All of today's pictures were taken in full sunlight.




I hope you all have a fabulous night.  Until next time...

*I bought these polishes myself.  I stalked the LynBDesigns facebook page for a sale then jumped all over these two.*

Femme Fatale Cosmetics Review

Press Sample

Hello!  Today I have four polishes from Femme Fatale Cosmetics.  This is my very first experience with this Australian indie so I'm super excited to do this review.  Up first we have Spring Fling.  This is probably best described as a crelly with glitter.  Initially I tried it by itself but after three coats I had a bit of vnl and wasn't completely happy with how it looked.  Since I had a mini bottle of Spring Fling I decided to layer two coats over Zoya Neely.  There is lots of glitter in this polish, no fishing or placing necessary.

Next up is Suspended Starlight over Zoya Ibiza.  Let me start by saying that I'm not convinced I picked the best layering combo for this polish.  The shade picture shows off the glitter a lot better but this polish in person was so much prettier than my picture shows.  There are stars and moons in this polish.  I only got one of each though.  Again there was great glitter payoff and for so much glitter the formula is really smooth and easy to apply.

My third polish is Mercury Rain.  This polish has a clear base with holo sparkles and black and grey dots and hexes.  I layered this over Zoya Suri.  This polish was so sparkly that when we were loading up the car my boss noticed it and asked what was on my nails.

Finally I have Dreamer's Potion layered over Sation Dating the Duke.  Just like all of the above polishes the glitter applied evenly and was pretty smooth with just one coat of topcoat.

I am super impressed by the quality of these polishes.  They all had plenty of glitter.  There was no fishing around for the stars or moons in the polishes that had them.  This makes me excited to get my hands on some more Femme Fatale polishes.  I received these for review from Femme Fatale.  They are based in Australia but do have international shipping.  Click here to check out their website and here to give them a like on facebook.  I hope you liked this glitter packed post today.  Have a great one!

Until next time...
