Zoya Pixie Dust Polka Dot Mani

Hi guys!!

I apologize if these posts seem short. I'm trying to get a blog post done everyday and sometimes I have to do it before I leave for work so I'm usually in a hurry. ;)

For todays post I did an polka dot mani with Zoya Pixi Dust Stevie on my accent nails.

Here is what I used.

And here is what I came out with.

Then I added a top coat to all the nails. I love the pixie dusts but I think they look even better with a top coat

I love these! So cute and simple. Anyone can do it!

So what do you think? Do you like it better with or without the topcoat?

Have a great Thursday! Wahooo the week is almost over!

Jindie Swoon With Watermarble Accent

Hi guys! Quick post today... I did a watermarble I love! YAY!!!!

First here are the colors I used for the watermarble.

Basically I painted the 3 nails with Jindie Swoon and the other two are watermarbled. Swoon is a sky blue based polish with blue, green and peach colored hex. You can see the peach hex glitter in the bottle but I don't think I got ANY on my nail. So I didn't bother adding any in the watermarble. Here is what I came up with.

I as pretty happy with how this turned out. A couple of oopsies but not to bad!

Off to work I go. Booo! Have a lovely Wednesday!

Bunniful Bath & Beauty Products Review

Hi guys!

2nd post of the day! Yay! My lovely bestie Dawn recently opened her business selling bath and beauty products and when she asked me to review, I of course said yes! She sent me an amazing smelling package full of fun stuff to try out. Heres what I got.

First up. Fuzzy Navel Sugar Scrub.

I actually used this prior to reviewing because I just couldn't wait. So that's why it's been dug into. ;)

*It looks a bit dry because during transit all the oil leaked out. Dawn has changed the way she packages her products so there shouldn't be any issues with future orders. I could have added a little olive oil but I actually prefer it to be a bit dry so I left it as it.

So here it is on my hands.

In hindsight I probably should have taken off my ring. LOL You just take a bit and rub it on the skin and then wash it off. I also used this on my feet. It was great. After I washed it off I applied some of the cuticle balm she sent me.

This is Chocolate Cherry Scented and man oh man did it smell nice!!! It was so easy to apply which I appreciate. Nothing worse then going to moisturize after a mani and you get cuticle oil everywhere!

And here is an after pic of my hands.

My hands felt SO soft and moisturized. These are awesome products. Even though the oil leaked out of the scrub it still smelled wonderful. I was very pleased.

Next up is the Brown Sugar Lip Scrub.

I was a little unsure about the lip scrub. I had no idea what it was or how to use it. LOL After talking to Dawn I learned that you smear it on your lips, leave it on for 5 minutes then wash it off. Here is what it looks like.

So I did what she said and I have to say I was surprised. I thought it would be a bit oily after I washed it off but it wasn't at all. My lips felt so soft! I couldn't believe it. I finished it up with a delicious smelling watermelon lip balm she sent and my lips felt amazing. I have to say the lip balm was definitely my favorite. It smelled amazing, was very moisturizing and it was extremely long lasting. I had another set of reviews to get done after this one and even after I was finished with them I could still feel the lip balm. LOVE! I forgot to take a pic of the lip balm but it looks exactly like the cuticle balm.

Femme Fatale Swatch and Review

Hi guys! It's been a bit since my last posting. I have been battling a terrible cold. I finally have the energy to do something so i'm here with some awesome polishes to show you! I received four polishes from Femme Fatale Cosmetics. Today i'm going to show you two of the four and the other two will be up in a couple of days. 

The first of the two is called Lime Thief. It's a green based polish filled with teal, green, orange, and pink hex and circle glitter. This is two coats with a coat of Sally Hansen Insta Dri to seal all that goodness in. :)

I had no problems with this polish. It applied well and wasn't to thick. I absolutely love this color! Normally I stay away from greens because I don't think they look good against my skin tone but this green might make me a believer! 

Next up is my favorite and my most hated at the same time! LOL! Winter Hyacinth is a blue based polish with silver and pink hex glitter, pink circle glitter, and silver diamond glitter. I was so excited to see this polish included because it has been on my wishlist forever! Take a look!

This is a beautiful polish but I had so much trouble with the application and trying not to get huge globs of glitter in one section of the nail. It also had SO much diamond glitter it got to the point that I was wiping the diamonds off the brush. Nevertheless I love this polish. It's beautiful. I always love blue and pink together so this was perfect for me. 

So now that you've seen both of these. Which is your favorite? 

Femme Fatale can be purchase here. It is an Australian brand so if you are ordering international it is recommended that you order with a group because shipping can be expensive. They also carry Enchanted, Emily De Molly, Alanna Renee, Gloss 'n Sparkle, Arcane Lacquer and a tons of other brands. 

You can also find Femme Fatale at Color4Nails, Ninja Polish and Harlow & Co.

I hope you guys enjoyed these polishes and I'll be back in a couple of days with the final 2.

Nelly Polish Review

These products were provided to me in exchange for an honest review.

 No compensation was received. 

Hi guys!! For todays post I have something pretty cool to show you! I was contacted by a lovely woman named Hilary who runs a UK based polish company named Nelly Polish. Now we all know that Royal Mail is VERY strict about the shipment of polish overseas. The majority of packages containing polish are destroyed and it has made getting polish from the UK very difficult. Hilary came up with an idea to sell dehydrated polish. Basically she sends you everything you need to make the polish all you do is add any clear nail polish and Voila! You've got polish.

Here is what Hilary has to say about the contents of the polish.

Your Nelly Mixture comes with exactly the right amount of pigment (natural mineral-based), suspension ingredient (to turn your light clear nail polish into a base capable of suspending nice chunky glitter without sinking) and, on the subject of glitter - all the glitters needed to create 10ml of your chosen Nelly Polish (along with the mixing balls to make the process easier).

And here is what the polish looks like before adding the clear polish.

You can also choose a cheaper option by just having the glitter and pigment shipped to you in a satchel. You would then provide the bottle and clear polish.

I used Kleancolor and Color Club clear polish. Hilary says any clear will work. I poured them until the bottle was about half full then I shook my little heart out! It's a bit of a workout lol. After that I poured until they got right under the neck of the bottle and shook some more. I don't know if I wasn't shaking hard enough or what but I did have some pigment stuck to the side of the bottle. I used a toothpick to get it off and continued to shake a bit. After a couple of minutes I had this.

Pretty cool right!? Here are the swatches.

Beeny is a pretty sky blue with orangish-red hex glitter. I used 3 coats for full opacity with a coat of Sally Hansen Insta Dri for some shine!

Next up is Bodmin. It's a beautiful  blue in a jelly base full of gold hex glitter. 

 There is tons of gold glitter in the bottle but for some reason I wasn't getting much on my nails. I suspect it has to do with my shaking ability. LOL Nevertheless this was my favorite of the two.

I really do like this idea. It's perfect for getting around the Royal Mail Polish Ban and at $4.87 for the satchel and $7.30 for the bottle with dried polish its a very good deal. And of course if you live in the UK you can buy it ready made for $8.92. (All prices in USD) You can read more about Nelly Polish and buy from here.

So what do you think? Would you give dehydrated polish a try?

Ellagee Little Black Dress Swatch and Review

Hi guys!!!

Recently I placed an order to Ellagee and Laura was kind enough to throw one in for review. Very sweet of her right!? The polish is called Little Black Dress. And it is a stunner!

Blackberry colored with a silver shimmer Little Black Dress would be perfect for a night out on the town. This is two coats with a coat of Sally Hansen Insta Dri.

This polish has been wearing great. I've had it on for almost a week with no chips or tip wear. Amazing! I never get tired of dark vampy polishes and this one is such a beautiful and unique color. All of her polish are 5 Free, Vegan friendly and cruelty free. Awesome right!?

 This polish is part of her Cocktail Hour Collection and retails at $9.00 for full size and $4.50 for a mini.

Side note. I LOVE when sellers offer minis! It gives me the opportunity to purchase more and saves room in my soon to be full Indie drawer! So kudos to all the makers out there who make minis!!

You can buy Ellagee here. and like her Facebook page here.

Have a lovely evening!

 Hi guys!!!

I am soooo excited for todays post! Roni sent me some amazing polish to review. I'm not even going to talk much. LOL! Lets just get to the pictures!


First up Vineyard. It's a beautiful plum colored Duochrome. It is part of Roni's limited fall collection along with four other colors.

I have to say I really like this color. Application was very nice. It took about 3 coats to build up opacity and I topped it off with a coat of Sally Hansen Insta Dri. I don't have ANY duochromes in my collection. Crazy right!? I've just never been so into them. Sometimes they look really streaky. But Vineyard doesn't. I might become a duochrome fan after all! :) These retail for $10.00 and you can buy the full collection for $45.00. As I mentioned before this is a limited edition collection. Only 15 bottles of each color were made so if you want one you better grab it fast! 

The next polish I am absolutely obsessed with! It's called Full Moon its a light blue scattered holo that is stunning!

But then....turn off the lights! And look!

 

It GLOWS!!!!

Neat right!? This polish was a breeze to apply; it took three thin coats to obtain opacity with one coat of Sally Hansen Insta Dri. It didn't take much to get the glow effect. In fact I didn't hold my hand up to a light or anything. As soon as it was dry enough I went to the bathroom and took a pic with just a sliver of light coming through. Then I decided to add some stripes to the accent nail, ran back into the bathroom and  shut the door completely to see how bright it really was and MAN was it bright! It lit up the bathroom!

I wasn't thrilled with my stripes but I plan on playing with this polish again and making some different designs. I also can't wait to go to work and show the kids. They are gonna love it! I don't believe this one is available quite yet but when it is I will update this post with the pricing.

As always Roni knocked my socks off. She really is a talented Indie maker and I am so happy to get to try out such cool polishes.

Have a lovely night!

Kb Shimmer Swatches

 Hi guys! Today I have a couple of Kb Shimmers to show you. These polishes came from her spring line I believe. First off the formula was great. It took 2 coats to get them opaque. They were a bit bumpy but nothing a coat of Seche couldn't handle. 

First up is Where My Peeps At. This is a gorgeous yellow milky base with pink, blue, green and yellow circle glitter and micro glitter.

Normally I hate yellow. But this is the perfect yellow for my skin tone!

The second polish I have is Iris My Case. This one is a purple milky base with pink, purple, blue, silver hexagon glitter.

Such a pretty purple. I really like both of these but Where My Peeps At is easily my favorite! 

 Enjoy your Sunday!
