Glam Polish Limited Edition Group Exclusives Swatches & Review

Hi there! I've got some new polishes from Glam Polish today to celebrate their 4th Anniversary and their fans, two new limited edition polishes created exclusively for the members of the Glam Polish Facebook fan group!

Press Sample

Glitter For Breakfast is a special shade created from an inspiration picture and name suggested by fan group members. It is a mix of pink, violet, gold and silver holographic microglitter in a delicate pink tinted holo base with platinum silver flakes, pink glass flecks, and holo flakies. Excellent application, covers in one coat but I used two here. It is a glitter so it will dry with a gritty texture, I suggest using a layer of thick top coat or two to get a smooth finish.

L-O-V-E is a special shade created to celebrate Glam Polish’s birthday and to show appreciation to their customers for supporting them over the last four years. This is a greenish-teal-turquoise intense holographic with added platinum silver flakes. This is has a superb formula, it's close to being a one coater but I used two here. This is stunning, not to be missed!

These shades will be available on Nov. 24th at 3pm EST; ordering info and a discount code required to purchase them will be posted in the Glam Polish Fans Facebook group, to join please visit https://www.facebook.com/groups/739265499436119.

Glam Polish Hella Holo Customs Swatches & Review

Hi folks! Today I wanted to show you some cool new shades from Glam Polish, who is a guest maker of the month for the Facebook group Hella Holo Customs. The group has two makers each month create a few polishes from ideas from group members, and then those polishes are sold exclusively in the group. I'm excited to be able to show you these pretties!

Press Sample

Serendipity is a soft, pale blue holographic with purple and pink shimmer, sparks and glass flecks. Effortless formula, just glides on the nail. This is two coats.

Tainted Love is a berry red linear holographic with a pink flash. This is excellent, with full coverage on one coat. It did seem a tad deeper on two coats though, which is what I've done here.

Sole Fantasy has a violet tinted holographic base with violet, pink, lavender and silver ultra holo microglitter, neon pink microglitter, and purple glass flecks. This was easy to apply, even considering how full of glitter it is. This is two coats. The microglitter can be a bit bumpy so you might want an extra layer of top coat.

Forest Nymph is a forest green jelly filled with iridescent, color shifting and holo flakies, purple glass flecks and violet holo microglitter. This is super duper packed with flakies, which may make it seem thick, but the base is thinner so don't overload your brush. I used two coats here.

These are available now through the end of the month; to order, you need to join the Hella Holo Customs group and read all the rules. Let me know what you think of these special holos! Are you interested in picking any up? Thanks for stopping by today and have a lovely weekend!

Color4Nails Spring Break Duo Swatches & Review

I was torn about posting these for you, but I couldn't resist. This duo from indie brands Pahlish and Contrary Polish is themed for Spring Break and is from Color4Nails, an online nail polish stockist, exclusively for the members of their Facebook fan group, C4N Nailistas. There were are only 100 duos available and they were only available to order for two days this past week. So you can see my hesitation. But I'm not one to let any good swatches "go to waste" by not posting them on my blog. I hope you don't mind that much!

Press Sample

Pahlish Sunrise In Monaco is a watermelon red jelly with a mix of metallic silver flakes and red glass fleck shimmer. A little thick, but easy to apply and has surprisingly great coverage in only two coats. I have one or two other Pahlish shades, but I actually haven't tied them yet (crazy, I know), so this shade is my first go with the brand. Not disappointed at all!

Contrary Polish Isla Mujeres is a sea green crelly filled with gold shimmer and scattered holographic microshimmer. This applies really nicely, and is opaque in three coats. Dries a bit satiny so you'll want a top coat for shine. This is also my first shade from Contrary Polish and I am pretty pleased with it. I love the shimmer/glitter type in this because it's smooth on the nail and doesn't make the polish difficult to remove like other glitters can.

Again, I'm sorry if you fall in love with these, but I just couldn't not post the prettiness! And there's always a chance that they could show up on blog sales or destashes in the future. Actually, it might be good for you to join the C4N Nailistas group anyway, as they might be planning to have more exclusive duos in the future, they do lots of sneak peeks to new polishes coming to the Color4Nails store, and sometimes even exclusive early shopping access or discount codes! Plus they ship internationally. Hope your weekend is going well, thanks for coming by today!

essie jackie oh my

i rarely wear sheer polishes, and when i do, i tend to build them up to opacity. this can be a pain and not worth the trouble in most cases. however, with essie's jackie oh my, it was no trouble and worth every second of application. a sheerish ivory off white shimmer. typical essie sheer? nope, this one applies STREAK FREE and builds up incredibly easy. this is four coats. and oh my gawd my nails felt so fabulous wearing this polish!

i have always had a thing for Jackie O. classic and sophisticated style is totally up my alley, but i'm not one to shy away from big, bright colors either! they say you're either a "Marilyn" or a "Jackie". well, i'd like to think i'm a little bit of both ;) which are you?

p.s. if you haven't already, head on over to my Facebook page for a chance to win a brand new bottle of Milani Dress Maker!  ends Oct. 8th.
