Revlon - Fierce

Hi there!

Today, I'm wearing Revlon's Fierce...

My nails painted with Revlon - Fierce.

I painted only 1 coat to achieve what's pictured. I think the formula is great- it's easy to work with and it dried quickly. The finish on this polish is like that of Princess, with the foily-metallic-suede look. And depending on the lighting, the color is either pink or purple- though not a duochrome.

I'm loving it :-)

Until next time...

It's Alive and Zombie Zest

Hi there!

I'm still wearing my water marble from last week, so here's a comparison I tested when I received a bunch of new Halloween polishes...

China Glaze - Zombie Zest and It's Alive.

My nails painted with China Glaze - It's Alive and Zombie Zest.
It's Alive is painted on my pointer and ring finger.
Zombie Zest is painted on my middle and pinky finger.

I painted 2 coats of each polish to achieve what's pictured. It's Alive has different sized/shaped glitter, while Zombie Zest contains glass flecks. If I had to recommend one over the other, it'd be Zombie Zest... it's easier to work with, and it's much easier to remove :-)

Until next time...

San Francisco 49ers Water Marble

Hi there!

Welp, football season is baaaaack! While I don't particularly care for the sport, I love the parties that come with it :-) My hunny poo likes that I support his love of the game with my nail art...

Red, gold, and black San Francisco 49ers water marble.
China Glaze - Red Pearl, China Glaze - Passion,
and Sinful Colors - Black on Black.

I painted 1 coat of Passion for the base. Then I marbled with Red Pearl, Passion, and Black on Black. I topped it all with a coat of Seche Vite.

Are you sporting a football inspired manicure?

Until next time...

Revlon - Princess

Hi there!

My cousin and her husband welcomed their new baby boy into this world late last night. This manicure is for that precious ball of cuteness...

My nails painted with Revlon - Princess.

I painted 2 coats of Princess to achieve what's pictured. It's 1 of 8 polishes from the Edgy Elegance collection. It applied easily, and it dried very quickly. The best way I know how to describe it is foily-metallic-suede. It has the silver undertones and texture that foil polishes have, while the color fits with metallic and suede polishes.

I'm a bit curious to know how it got its name... since I don't generally see princesses sporting blue. This may be an odd choice to pay homage to a new baby boy, but the color is suiting... so what the hey :-)

Do you have any polishes with names that are not fit for their color?

Until next time...

A Haunting Admirer

Hi there!

These two polishes are pretty similar...

China Glaze - Haunting and Sinful Colors - Secret Admirer.

My nails painted with China Glaze - Haunting and Sinful Colors - Secret Admirer.
China Glaze is painted on my pointer and ring finger.
Sinful Colors is painted on my middle and pinky finger.

I painted 2 coats of each polish to achieve what's pictured. Haunting has larger, less dense flecks of silver in comparison to Secret Admirer. I think they're similar enough where you don't need both, but I can't recommend one over the other... I like 'em equally :-)

Until next time...

China Glaze - Haunting

Hi there!

This is from its namesake's collection...

My nails painted with China Glaze - Haunting.

I painted 2 coats for it to be opaque. Haunting was easy to apply, and it dried very quickly. It ties Ghoulish Glow for my favorite from the Haunting collection. The silver flecks really remind me of a starry sky... and it sure would have come in handy for my splattered fireworks manicure!

Until next time...

Teal Leopard

Hi there!

I've been wearing this manicure for a few days now...

My nails painted with Diamond Cosmetics - Don't Teal My Heart Away.
Stamped with Konad image plate M57. 

I used China Glaze's Adore to stamp over my ovarian cancer awareness manicure. Adore stamped very easily, as do the rest of the polishes from the Romantique collection :-) I topped it off with a coat of Seche Vite.

What do you think of this color combination?

Until next time...

Ovarian Cancer Awareness

Hi there!

September is Ovarian Cancer Awareness Month, and teal is the color for it. Teal Toes works to raise awareness, and while I don't have a teal pedicure to share... I am sporting a pretty teal manicure...

My nails painted with Diamond Cosmetics - Don't Teal My Heart Away.

I painted only 1 coat for this polish to be opaque, and it dried very quickly. Pretty, right?

Will you be wearing teal this month?

Until next time...
