OPI-Pink of hearts-swatch and review

Hello Everyone!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

How are you guy's doing today?Like Always I wish all is well!!!

Today I have OPI Pink Of Heart 2013 Duo. For the seventh year in a row OPI has released a limited edition nail polish duo!! The duo is to raise awareness as well as fund Breast Cancer Research. OPI has donated so much money and time to this cause. This cause has affected all of us all in some way or another. Whether it be a family member, coworker, friend or even yourself,  it is a topic that must not be ignored. I am proud suporter of Breast Cancer awareness as well as research. 

Support does not always have to be in the form of money. Support can come from just being there for a person struggling with the disease in one way or another. Sometimes a helping hand or a listening ear can help someone going through a difficult time in their life. You would be suprise how much being there for someone can do. 

There are two polishes in the this duo. The first is More Than A Glimmer. Its a glitter pack polish. There is metalic glitter in pinks, gold, greens and blue. Its all packed in light milky pink base. It has a very metallic look to it.The second is Pink-ing-of-You barbie pink polish.

Please see pictures below!!


The Duo also comes with rhinestones and breast cancer awareness stickers!

Close Up Of the Glitter

 

There is no topcoat on my pointer and ring finger.
The polish dries matte.

There Top coat on my accent nail. Just to keep the sticker down.
But it is amazing to me that you cant tell the difference with or without top coat.


 
Overall I LOVE this collection. The cause for this Duo alone is a plus but the polish inside is the bonus. More Than A Glimmer is Beautiful.  I LOVE IT!!!!!! I love the sparkle even though its matte. I would definatley wear this again and again. I believe its timeless!! Each nail has two coats. Accent nail has two coats of each polish. Pink-ing-of-You is the perfect girly barbie pink. It takes 3 coats to be fully opaque. You can pick this duo up at your local ULTA. It retails for $15.95. It supports a wonderful cause!! Remember every little bit helps.


Thank you!!
Dacia!!!

Avon-Urban Splatter-Swatch and Review

Hello Everyone!!!!!!!!!!!!

I know its been a while but im back and up to my old nail polish "tricks" again. lol. I had to take a mini break. Between work and summer and breaking two nails. I had to step back for a minute. So Nubs and all here I am. I must say I missed you guys. I have collected so many wonderful polishes on my month off. Im waiting on a few things to come so in a few days I will share my complete Sept. 2013 haul. I had a birthday so lets say I splurged a little. Hey If I cant spoil my self then WHO WILL!!! LoL. There are going to be a few Changes also.Blog post will be Monday's and Wednesday's. Also all blog post will be 100% honest. Not that they were not honest before, but I did not post most of the things I did not like, due to fear of being talked about and cyber bullied, But all that is over now. I dont care what anyone has to say about my opinion. Its only my opinion. Its not that serious. If you have issues with it. Let the battle begin because I will not back down or be bullied. I am here to share my love, my passion and my true heart for all things nail polish. So please stay for the ride. If not catch you on the flip side.Follow me on Instagram and Facebook for Everything in between Monday and Wednesday for Deals, Hauls, Sales, Whatever my heart desires. So lets get down to the reason we are all here. Nail Polish!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


Today I have two polishes from the Avon The Urban Splatter Collection. I must say I'm really proud of Avon for taking this leap forward. They are really starting to compete with the rest of the world. They still have your classics, But I must say they are trying to keep up!!!! Kudos to you Avon!!

The two polishes I picked are Blackout and Underground Yellow. I decided to pick one with a base color and one with clear. There are six in total. All have a tint except Blackout. There is purple, pink, blue, green and yellow.

BLACKOUT is black bar glitter and hexes. There is also white hex glitter throughout. They range from medium small to specks. All this is in a clear base.

UNDERGROUND YELLOW is the same as black out except it has a slight yellowish tinge. Like a tint of color. Its not very bright the yellow but alone with no base coat you notice the color.

Please See pics and review below!!!!

I must tell you I liked Blackout. I did not love it but I liked it. Yeah I'm a sucker for black and white Glitter. So When I saw this I went nuts. I stalked my local avon lady for a book. I did not like Underground Yellow. The whole colored base threw me off. And why was the color so light but dark enough that I felt it needed a base. I do feel like the bar glitter was too big. It was also hard to control. Glitter placement is a must. If you just dip your brush in the polish to much comes out at once. I'm glad I only purchased one with the color tint. I give Avon an A plus for effort. But unfortunately I will not repurchase this. I'm slightly disappointed. There a far to many black and white glitters for this to be #1. let me say I'm a hugh fan of Avon but this one was just not hitting it for me.
 
If you would like to give Avon Urban Splatter a try please do not let me discourage you. I always say everything does not work for everybody. So maybe this product was just not for me. 
 
You can purchase this HERE!!!
 
Thanks Again for  Reading. See yah Soon!!!!

Laquerlicious Nail lacquer- Part 2

Hello Everyone!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Happy Hump Day!!!!!

Today I have Two more lovely polishes from Laquerlicious .  These two are glitter toppers. Both packed with tones of colorful bold glitter. One is called Barbie Girl and the other is What's Her Face.


BARBIE GIRL is in clear base. It has Chunky short white bar glitter. It has neon & pastel green, black, hot & baby pink glitter hex pieces. The size varies from small to medium. It has stars and circles. It truly packed down with all things glitter. You can layer this over any color. I decided to use a grey polish. I used two thin coats of Cool Grey by Sinful Colors. I topped it all off with Hk girl top coat.

WHAT'S HER FACE is also in a clear base. This polish has bar glitter, stars, squares, and hexes. In my opinion its really bold. There is white, blue, red, pink, orange, purple, gold, and even holographic pieces. It really is amazing how it all came together. I did two thin coats over two coats of Salon Hanson Salon Manicure is Yellow Kitty. Its a creamy yellow. I topped it all off with Hk girl top coat.

Please See Pictures and Review Below!


 
 
 
 

 

 

 

 

 
 
 


 
I love them both. I just don't understand how you cannot love them. They are both beautiful. In the bottle it looks like so much glitter, But it gels together so well. They were very easy to work with.  

I must tell you that I picked WHAT'S HER FACE specifically because it was a little outside my comfort zone. It has alot of different kind of glitter packed in one. I did not think I would make it look flattering on myself. So I was very much surprised that is was my favorite of the 4 polishes. I just loved it. BARBIE GIRL  was fun!!!! I loved how feminine it was. I felt very girly with it on. I cannot WAIT to get more of Creativenailshicks awesome glitter packed creations. You can Purchase everything Laquerlicious Here!!!!!!

Laquerlicious Nail Laquer-Part 1

Hello Everyone!!!!

As always I wish you all the best!!!!

On my nail journey I have discovered so many intersting polishes. I feel like im never bored. There is always something grabbing my eye. Keepin me interested and captivated. I think its no secret that indie nail polish has taken me by storm. I just want to show the world. LOL. Today I have two polishes from Laquerlicious. I discovered these amazing creations on instagram. The polish makers IG name is Creativenailchick. This polish has definately caught my eye and my interest. You should expect to see alot more of it. This is a two parter so expect the rest at some point this week.


Today I have No Dupes Here and Summer's First Bloom. No Dupes Here is a glitter topper. Its in a clear base. This polish is the true defintion of a glitter bomb. Is has glitter in black, white, yellow, red, hot pink, lime green, purple, blue, light pink and turquois. The size of glitter varies from small to large. There are circles, hexes, stars and squares. Some of the pieces are even holographic. Like I said BOMB!!! I did two coats over OPI Gargantuan Green Grape . Its a seafoam-greenish blue. Topped it with one coat HK-girl-top-coat.

Summer First Bloom is a lavender polish with pink, green, orange, yellow and purple. There is micro glitter threw out. There is even holographic stars. it goes on opaque in one coat, But to get the full effect I recommend two. You do not need to wear a polish underneath this one unless you want to. But it can be worn by itself. I did two coats and topped it off with HK-girl top coat.

Please see pictures and reviews below

Over all I loved both of these polishes. They were easy to work with. Both went on smooth. No issues. No lumps. Or Clumps. Summer's First Bloom took me by suprise. I did not think I would like it. But once it did the first stroke on my nails I knew I was in love. They are both beauties!!! The eclectic glitter packed in No Dupes Here makes it versitile and right up my ally. This can be worn with many color underneath. You can never ever go wrong with a glitter topper.  You can purchase them HERE. Shipping is super fast. I never have to wait long.

Trelly M.I.S.C. Polish-Never Growing Up!!!!!!!!-Swatch

Hello Everyone!!

Guess What Day It Is? Guess What Day It Is? Thats Right, Its Hump Day !!!!!!! LOL!!!!!

Today I have my very first Trelly Polish!!! Its call Never Growing Up!!!!!!!!!! This is another Indie brand. I picked this polish because I thought the name was fitting since my bday is coming up and I really feel no older than before. Age is truly just a number People.

Never Growing Up is a glitter topper. Yes I know I'm obsessed. Lol.I love them so. I like the fact that I can put a topper over any color and it changes the whole look of the Mani. The Possibilities are endless.


Never Growing Up is in a clear base It has black heart shaped glitter, barbie pink star shape glitter, pink bar glitter, small hex dusty silver glitters, and tiny black, pink and dusty silver specks of glitter through out. I use Zoya Dove as a base. Its a light grey.I used 2 coat dove and 1 coat Never Growing Up and topped it all with Seche Vite fast drying top coat.


Please see pics and Review below.

 
 
Never Growing Up

 



Zoya Dove 








 It really is absolutely stunning the way the glitter plays well with one another. When Never Growing Up is described in words it can sound busy and all over the place or even childish. but once seen on your nails everything makes sense. The name and the glitter combo. Overall I loved this WAY MORE than expected. I was shocked at how much i loved it. It blew my mind to be honest. Its just so pretty. Both polishes went on smooth. Never Growing Up was not clumpy. Very easy to work with. My advice is a little goes a long way. build it. Don't just glob it on. Don't be afraid the place a star or heart instead of spreading it with the brush. I find that glitter placement makes sense when you have so many types of glitter packed in one. While a child would love this. This polish is more than perfect for an adult. I felt edgy and chic after I put it on. I will definitely recommend it to EVERYONE.
 
You can purchase this topper HERE. It may or may not be in stock, But if you follow them on Instagram @trellypolish they will announce restocks and new polish.

Polish Addict Nail Color-Pool Party- Swatch and Review

Hello Everyone!!

I hope all is well!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Today I have another amazing Indie nail polish from the Polish Addict Nail Color . It called Pool Party . This one is a glitter topper. Its absolutely amazing. It has holo small hex glitters in magenta, red, green, blue, teal, charcoal, lime green, silver and black. The light bounces off your fingers and It sparkles from every angle.

I choose to top Pool Party over OPI-Road House Blues. RHB is a deep blue with a hint of deep purple. But the beauty of glitter topper is you can wear it with any color underneath.
I used two thin coats over OPI-RHB topped with Seche Vite. This polish is packed with so much holographic glitter that I would recommend not to get a heavy hand. More ends up on the brush than you think. Start small and build.

See Swatch and Review Below.

 
Unfocused picture to show all the sparkle

This is the sparkle you gt every time your hand hits a light.
 
 
 

To add a little something extra I mattiffied it.

 
Over all I love this Glitter Topper. It adds a little something extra to any plain Mani.
This is one of those all year round glitters. 
 Because of the variety of colors it can be worn in any season.
I had no problem with clumping.
It went on very smooth. Like I said before a little goes a long way.
You can pare it with any color.
 
This Glitter Topper can be purchased HERE
 
 
Thanks For Stopping By!!!

Polsh Addict Nail Color-Happy Hour-GITD Polish

Hello Everyone!!!

How are yall doing? As always I hope all is well.

Today On the Blog I have my first ever glow in the dark(GITD) nail polish!!!!!!!!!!! I loved this way more than I thought I would. Its awesome!!!!!!!!! Its fun. I bet you no one else will have this on. You will definitely be the cool one at the bar. lol

This summer GITD polish has been all the rage in the nail community!!!!!! I honestly thought I would never wear this. Until I put it on my hands!!!!!!!!!! On the outside it looks like your normal everyday glitter bomb in a creamy light blue base. It has micro glitter in blue, purple, and orange purple and other colors. It has Glitter stars in it also. Red and black ones. It has small square/hex glitter in multiple colors including Neon( my fav) . Bottom line is you must see it to believe its awesomeness.

Happy Hour

Happy Hour
After the lights are off!!
 

 

  OMG!!!!!!!

How could you not like this. IT FREAKING ROCKS!!!!!!!
The formula was awesome. Went on smooth. It was a tad thin,
but considering how much glitter was in the bottle that was a blessing. If You want it to have a full neon glow. You must sit your hands directly under light for about a minute.
 It glows in the dark no matter if you sit under the light or not.
But if you want that nuclear look. lol
You got to charge them up.
 
You can purchase Here!!
 
Now that I understand glow in the dark nail polish please expect to see more of this. lol 
Who does not like to glow in the dark. Um Hello!! Your nails will glow in the dark. lol
I dont think you will be disappointed by that!
 
Thank You For Stopping by!!!
Love Always Dacia!!!
