Cult Nails Toxic Seaweed

Hello world!

Finally another post from me. And it´s an awesome one! Cult Nails Toxic Seaweed is soooo cool! I love it!
It´s a green jelly base with green glitter and red flakies. I used 3 thick coats to get some opacity, on some nails 4... And eventhough I don´t really like that, I do get a good wear out of it. While I´m writing this, it´s the 5th day of wear. No chips and only very minimal tipwear. Althoug it could be the topcoat too. I used my INM Out The Door with gold holographic glitter. I hardly ever use it, but it seems to work well on me or just on this polish.

Here are the pictures.


Sun and shade just so you can see how awesome it is.

Thanks for stopping by and enjoy your day!

Girly Bits Star Spangled

Hello!!

So today I have another Girly Bits polish. This is one of the Indy brands. I have to say I´m not all that impressed about 99% of all Indy polishes. They aren´t all that unique, they all copy each other. Mostly glitter topcoats with huge glitter in all sorts of shapes, not my thing. And last but not least, most of them are overpriced. I understand that producing just a few makes it more expensive, but still. That said, I do like some of them. Especially the 3 Girly Bits that I have :D. Today I´ve got Star Spangled for you. Very pretty!

Star Spangled is a sheer blue with blue, red and silver glitter. I love it!

For my pictures I used 3 coats. Next time I will use it over a dark blue base coat, just to save the polish.





I apologize for the poor clean up. When I put it on it was already starting to get dark and I wanted to catch the last daylight, so I decided to do the clean up later.

So what do you think? Like it, love it or hate it? I love it!

Thanks for stopping by!!

Layla Ceramic Effect 53

Hi ladies

Todays polish unfortunately has no name. Why name the holos, but not the other polishes? I don´t get it. Anyway, it´s a red flakie polish from Layla. The base is a red jelly and the flakes are also mostly red. They do shift to green, yellow and orange in some angles. I used 1 coat of Misa Date Night To The Twilight and 1 coat of Layla Ceramic Effect 53. Application was good on both.

Here´s the result.



Love the combination! They match well together. Although I am curious what it would look like over a nice deep red or something.

Thanks for watching! Enjoy your day!

Hits Phenoma Afterglow

Hi ladies!

Don´t have a lot of time, so just pics and a short message. But of course leave a message if you have a question, I´ll get back to that as soon as possible.

This is one coat of Nubar Noir and 2 coats of Hits Phenoma Afterglow.





Looks like one of the Ozotic Elytras, will have to do a comparison someday.

Enjoy your day!!

Girly Bits Shift Happens

Hi there!

Today I have my new favorite polish for you. This is so awesome! I can´t even describe it. The name just says it all: Shift Happens. And it happens all the time in all sorts of colors. My pics of this are ok, but in real life this polish is even 100 times prettier.

This is 1 coat of Nubar Noir and 2 coats of Girly Bits Shit Happens.





Get it while you can!! It´s a perfect multichrome and just glows!
Love it!!

Have a great day and thanks for visiting!

Cult Nails Seduction

Hi there!

After missing out on Clairvoyant, I knew I had to have the pretty Cult Nails Seduction. And it´s awesome! Get it while you can!

It has a purple jelly base with multicolor flakes. Nice!!

I used 1 coat of OPI Funky Dunkey and 2 coats of Seduction.




If you are a flakie lover like me you must admit you love this too.
This is really beautiful!

Thanks for stopping by and enjoy your day!

Up Colors Beijo Na Boca

Hello!

Recently I placed an order at Llarowe. They have so many great brands that I couldn´t resist. And the shipping fee is not ridiculously high.

One of the polishes I got is from Up Colors and is called Beijo Na Boca. No idea what that means, but ok, not important. It has a sheer jelly pink base with red and green flakies in it. The color shifting in those flakies was stronger than I expected. From swatches I had seen I thought it was mostly green and red what you were seeing. Nice surprise!

I used the black holo from Glitter Gal as I hoped the holo would still be visible after layering the flakies, but unfortunately not... I used 2 coats of Beijo Na Boca.





I still can´t get enough of flakies. They are in my top 3 of favorite polishes. Maybe it´s even my number one, I can´t decide.

Do you like flakies as much as I do?

Thanks for watching!!

Ozotic 530

Hi!

Today another Ozotic since I still haven´t shown you all of my gorgeous Ozotics. This is one of the Elytra´s, the duochrome glitters. The one shown today shifts orange, yellow, red and pink. I decided to layer it over a dark navy blue instead of black. So I used my beloved 1 coater: China Glaze Little Drummer Boy.




Yes, Elytra´s are great! I love all 3 of them.

Thanks for watching/reading!

My own Unicorn Puke

Hello!

Since I´m quite sure I will never ever own Cult Nails Clairvoyant (aka Unicorn Puke) I decided to create my own. I have so many different flakie polishes so I was sure I could create something very cool. And it worked out very well.

Ingredients:
1 coat Nubar Noir
1 coat Essence Night In Vegas
1 coat Golden Rose scale effect 11
1 coat Golden Rose scale effect 02 (my all time favorite flakie)

It looks awesome! Let´s see if you agree with me.





Look at all those colors! I mean, it´s all there: red, orange, yellow, gold, green, blue, purple. Wow!

I still want Clairvoyant though...

Thanks for visiting my blog today!

Jelly sandwich with BB Couture Dragon´s Breath

OMG! 2 weeks!?! I can´t believe it has been that long.

How are all of you doing?? Hope you are all doing well.

After lots and lots of stress everything seems to fall back in place. That doesn´t mean I won´t be busy anymore, because I will for at least another 10 months, but it´s a lot less stressfull.

Well, for today I have a nice jelly sandwich. I started with 2 coats of BB Couture Dragon´s Breath, then 1 coat of Kleancolor Chunky Holo Bluebell, 1 coat of China Glaze Snow Globe and another coat of Dragon´t Breath. I really think the combination is beautiful! I really love jelly sandwiches!





Look at all the colors that match so well together! Gorgeous!

I actually had another 2 swatches on my camera, but as soon as put them on my computer I saw they dramatically failed. So I have no idea when I will be back with another post again. Sorry.

Hope you all enjoyed looking at my pics today and thanks for stopping by!

BeYu Brilliant Shiraz over OPI Yoga-ta Get This Blue

Hi there!

Oh man, Brilliant Shiraz is really awesome!! I´ve shown it before over a dark purple, but today I used Yoga-ta Get This Blue by OPI as my base. Perfect dark blue 1 coat shimmer. Brilliant Shiraz looks really gorgeous on top of a dark blue, even better than with a dark purple base. It really glows. So pretty!

So this is one coat of each plus topcoat. Perfect application on both of them.




I still have no idea how close this is to Clarins 230, but I´m pretty sure this is a lot less duochrome. Oh well, I still love it. I´ve read about a new Max Factor polish though which is supposed to be really close to Clarins 230. Of course I ran to each and every single store I know that sells Max Factor, but so far no sign of it yet. I will be checking the stores on a regular base from now on, because I really need to get my hands on that Unicorn Pee dupe.

Thanks for watching!

Orly Fowl Play

Hello!

For today I´ve got an awesome polish! It has glitter, it has flakies and it is dark purple. What more could I wish for? I love it! I already had OPI Merry Midnight and loved it, but hardly ever used it because I was afraid it would run out. So when I saw Fowl Play I knew I had to have it.

Fowl Play is a dark grape purple jelly with blue glitter and flakies that shift orange, green, red and yellow. Stunning combination!! It is supposed to be a dupe for Merry Midnight and yes it definitely is very close, but Fowl Play seems darker. In my pictures it almost seems black actually.

I used 2 coats and application was good. I really like the Orly caps and brushes!





Gorgeous!!

China Glaze Millennium + Party Hearty

Hi ladies!

Today my Christmas mani. A little late, but why not, right? I think this mani can also be worn on New Years Eve.

I´ve never had as many compliments on any mani as I got on this one. Wow!

And it was an easy one as well. 1 coat of China Glaze Millennium and 1 coat of China Glaze Party Hearty. Of course I did use topcoat, but I didn´t use basecoat. I never use basecoat on lighter colors, they don´t stain.
Application was good on both. My pictures on the other hand... not as sparkly as the mani actually was. And my hands look horrible, old lady like.

My first Christmas mani: Elle´s Spell over Branding Iron

Hello ladies!

Hope you all had a wonderful Christmas. As I explained the other day, for us here in the Netherlands it´s the second Christmas day today. I did have to work (I work in the airport), so nothing special for me.

I know I´m a little late, but today I´m showing you my first Christmas mani. Since I´m not a red polish kinda girl, but I do love some of the darker ones, I decided to layer Barielle Elle´s Spell over China Glaze Branding Iron. Nice and vampy!! Love the combo!

I used 1 coat of each and it was good to go. Application on both was good.

Here are my pics.






I keep loving flakies! I´m sorry for the overload in the last week.


Have you seen the new Finger Paints flakies yet? They are awesome! I wish I could get them here.

What is you favorite flakie?


Have a great day!

My favorite flakie ever!

Hi everyone!

Today another post with my alltime favorite flakie polish. And it´s cheap too!

First: why is this such an awesome flakie? Well, easy. It has the same color shift as most other famous flakies like Sally Hansen Hidden Treasure and Gosh Rainbow, but on top of that it also has blue flakies, which make it special. It´s Golden Rose Scale Effect 02. I´m going to order a backup real soon, my first ever back up polish.

This time I used it over a dark blue with sparse holographic glitter: Zoya Indigo. Since the holographic glitter is so sparse, you can´t see it anymore after you applied the flakies. But that´s ok.

I used 1 coat of Zoya Indigo and 1 coat of Scale Effect 02.





Awesome, right?!

Color Club Blue-topia and Kleancolor Chunky Holo Black

Hi guys!

Another Back To Boho polish. And it´s beautiful! And I actually got it opaque in one coat. How´s that possible with a dark blue jelly? Great! Application was really smooth.
Since I hadn´t tried Chunky Holo Black by Kleancolor yet, I thought it was about time! CHB is a very faded black base with duochrome glitter in different sizes. Unique in my stash!



And here are some pictures of Blue-topia on its own.


I changed something on the last pic so you can see it´s not totally opaque. The problem is when you do use a second coat, it gets so dark, it´s almost black and I didn´t want that.
Thank you for stopping by!

Barielle Elle´s Spell

Hi ladies!

For today I have a polish which you might have not expected to see on my nails. It´s red, which is not really my color. But this one... yes, I love it! I have used it before for layering, but now I finally used it on its own.

Barielle Elle´s Spell is a red jelly with duochrome flakies. Wow, it´s gorgeous! I know there´s one of the Nfu Oh flakies that is pretty similar. I think number 58 or 59, sorry, don´t remember. The difference is that most of my Nfu Oh flakies don´t dry this fast. The formula on Elle´s Spell is great! I used 3 coats.


I´m really sorry for the still very dry cuticles. Working on it, but as explained before, my skin is difficult to get moisturized.


Do you guys like this one? I think it´s the best Barielle I´ve ever seen. And also the best red polish that exists. And I actually like it on my nails too, yay!

Thanks for visiting my blog!
