Sinful Colors Cream Pink + Painted Polish Drunk on Holo

Hi friends! Today I wanted to show you a mani I wore a few weeks ago that I really loved. I used Sinful Colors Cream Pink for my main shade and did accent nails on my thumbs and ring fingers with Painted Polish Drunk on Holo.

I tend to overlook Sinful Colors because I see their stuff mostly as "basic" colors that I already have a million of but sometimes they'll have something that catches my eye. I saw this color on a fellow lacquerista's instagram and knew I had to have it. I adore pinks with gold shimmer and this bright warm toned stunner is really perfect for me. I don't know why they named it "cream" pink because it's a shimmer, duh. This is opaque in two coats, perfect formula. I guess this isn't even new, it's from their core collection. And they are cheap! Usually $1.99 at Walmart, Walgreens, etc.

Painted Polish is an new-to-me indie that I also discovered on instagram. This is a super intense silver holographic glitter. It's like CRAZY blingy, I wish I could convey it in my photos but for real. You need this. The formula was good and it covered really nicely in three coats. You can get Painted Polish on their website for $10.

Do you like Sinful Colors? I need to look at them more often and stop being a snob haha. Have you ever tried anything from Painted Polish? I have already spied a few more of their colors that I need. I hope your weekend is amazing and I'll see you next time :)

Two Pink Manicures

I showed you purple manicures the other day, now here are some pink ones! I have more pink polishes than any other color, even glitter, which sounds crazy. Probably because it's the most readily available shade out there haha.

This is a total classic OPI, Bubble Bath. It's literally the first shade of nail polish I ever remember hearing about. A predominantly "bridal" color, this shade is described as a pink shade of white. I know the newest versions of this are more pink than the original was, but this is my first bottle so I have nothing to compare it to. This is four coats, it's quite sheer, but lovely and timeless.

Now for a more salacious version of a pink manicure, this is China Glaze Wicked Style from their Electropop collection with an accent nail of Floss Gloss Dimepiece. The pink is a punchy bright but not neon pink which I think contrasts excellently with the chunky silver glitter. I felt so funky fresh wearing this mani :)

You can buy OPI at professional retailers and salons for $8.50. You can buy China Glaze from retailers like Sally Beauty, Ulta, and online for around $7. Floss Gloss is sold online for $8. Have you worn any good pink manicures lately?

Red Nails with a Hint of Bling

Hi friends! Hope your weekend is going well :) Here is a mani I wore a few weeks ago that really brought a smile to my face. This is such a killer combo, hot red with an accent nail of gold bling!

The red is Sation Overdressed Party and the gold is Deborah Lippmann Shake Your Groove Thing. The gold does take quite a few layers to get total coverage, I think this was five or six coats, but I love the end result. Doing it as one nail helped minimize the effort.
