Delush Polish – Slice of Life collection

10

Today I have the whole Delush Polish Slice of Life collection to show you. This collection is inspired by TV-show Dexter. All of the polishes on this collection are jellies and I have no problem with that since I LOVE jelly polishes! These are very juicy and squishy. These create an awesome sandwich effect with the glitter and they practically glow!

All of these had a very good formula and application, I had no issues with them. They take 2-3 coats for a good result and for all but one of them just a coat of HK Girl was enough to smooth out the glitters.

Cult Nails – Annalicious

6

Cult Nails Annalicious is orange/red jelly full of orange and gold shimmer. This almost looks like a glass fleck polish. The color is so vibrant and has an amazing glow. I love, love, love colors like this!

The formula and application were flawless. I didn’t even need to do any clean up. I applied two easy coats with HK Girl top coat. Perfection!

Cult Nails – I Got Distracted

2

Here’s a perfect polish for New Year’s Eve celebration for those of you who love dark nail polish. Cult Nails I Got Distracted is black jelly with green glitter and holographic shimmer/microglitter. Very beautiful and sparkly!

Formula was good and application was easy. Tiny bit of balding on the first coat but everything evened out perfectly with the second coat. Dry time was also quick. Very good quality polish. This dries a little rough so you’ll definitely need to use a top coat with this one though.

For this manicure I used two coats of I Got Distracted and HK Girl top coat (This is also now available on Norway Nails).

Essie – Toggle To The Top

6

Looking for a great shade for Holidays but feel like the usual bright red isn’t really for you? Essie Toggle To The Top might be an answer for that polish problem. This deep dark red jelly with a lot of red glitter and shimmer is absolutely stunning. It just glows!

Application was a little weird and I had to keep moving the polish on my nail for a bit to get the glitter to apply evenly. BUT one(!!) coat was enough for the result you see on the photos. One very generous coat also dried very quickly. This one is a bit of a top coat eater so I used two coats of HK Girl top coat. Base coat was IsaDora Peel Off Base.

I absolutely loved this vampy red shade!

Jindie Nails for Halloween

0

It’s that spooky time of the year again! I have prepared with a lot of candy and some nail polish. Today I have two nail polishes created by Jindie Nails. Blood, Bath & Beyond is from the Halloween 2013 collection and Barbie’s Nightmare is Mei Mei’s Signatures exclusive for Halloween.

First we have Blood, Bath & Beyond “Blood red jelly with intense violet/gold shimmer, lavender and violet metallic and holographic dots, gold metallic and holographic large, small and medium dots, red large, small and medium metallic dots and purple iridescent sparks throughout”.

This is two coats of Blood Bath & Beyond with G & G HK Girl top coat.

 

Blood, Bath & Beyond is a great quality blood red jelly. This is so juicy and squishy! Application was smooth and easy. I didn’t even turn the bottle upside down before application but that is the thing to do if you have trouble getting the glitter out of the bottle. You should allow some time for the first layer to dry before applying second or the bigger glitter pieces might start dragging.

 

The second polish of the day is Mei Mei’s Signatures exclusive for Halloween 2013. This is how Barbie’s Nightmare is described: “White crelly with black irregular glitters, moon, dot, star, square, silver dot, neon pink square, grey moon, grey dot and red star”.

On the photos there’s three thin coats of Barbie’s Nightmare with G & G HK Girl top coat.

 

Barbie’s Nightmare has a perfect white crelly base. Milky and sheer enough to create a great sandwich effect but still opaque on three coats. A little streaky on the first coat but evened out nicely on second and third coat. This was actually quite easy to apply and just perfection compared to some white polishes. I did turn the bottle upside down before the application.

Color Club – Williamsburg

1

Happy Saturday lovelies! Today I have another polish from the new Color Club fall 2013 Girl About Town Collection for you. This is Williamsburg, a deep navy blue jelly with blue shimmer and what looks like micro-flakies on the macroshot. Very beautiful color that’s perfect for the holiday season. Add some gold or silver nail art and you’re ready to party!

On this mani I used two coats of Williamsburg and G & G HK Girk top coat.

 

This has a good formula and two coats was enough for my nails. Again, a tiny bit streaky on the first coat but evened out nicely with the second one.

Jindie Nails – Sexy Barbie (Mei Mei’s Signatures exclusive)

2

Hello lovelies! I’m still alive, just adjusting to my new routine and schedule. I have no plans on stopping blogging so just have a little more patience with me while I figure it all out :)

And now on to this gorgeous polish that is a new Mei Mei’s Signatures exclusive Sexy Barbie by Jindie Nails. This is a stunning pink jelly with circle glitter in different colors and sizes. On this manicure I used three coats of Sexy Barbie, a thin coat of Glitter Food and G & G HK Girl top coat.

 

The application on this was amazing. Absolutely no issues at all! The jelly base applies so smooth and even. No dragging, balding or streaks. Just amazing! And the color… can I say it again? Amazing! So juicy and perfect pink. I just totally love this one. I love circle glitter and I’m crazy about jelly polishes so this one is right down my alley.

Sexy Barbie is available only at Mei Mei’s Signatures. They offer worldwide shipping and great customer service! You can also find Mei Mei’s from Facebook, Twitter and Instagram.

Jindie Nails – 1 Year Anniversary Duo

0

Jindie Nails had their first anniversary on July 16th. To celebrate the occasion Jen created the Anniversary Duo that is nothing short of awesome. I know I always say this BUT I absolutely love these polishes :D

Let’s start with the blue one, Anniversary Seaquins. This has an amazing dusty, smoky blue base packed with shimmer and all kinds of glitter. Application was just perfect. No issues at all. To my surprise this was almost opaque on two coats. I did apply the third one though. The base color is just beautiful and will be great for fall and winter too. This is the kind of the shade you can wear a year round.

This is three thin coats of polish and G & G HK Girl top coat.

 

Gorgeous, right?

Aaaand then there is the magnificent Purple Universary. I LOVE circle glitter and jellies so you can imagine my joy when I saw the first bottle shots not to mention actually holding the bottle. This is so amazing! The deep purple, true jelly base and all that circular glitter. Aaaahh! This is definitely on the top three of the most beautiful polishes I own. This is like universe on your nails.

The application on this was also perfect. No problems and all the glitter came out of the bottle easily, no fishing needed. This is three coats and it looks gorgeous but for the next time I wear this I have an application game plan ;) I’ll do first coat without any glitter, second with glitter, thin third coat without again and then the last one with glitter. That’ll help me build even more depth to this stunning beauty :)

So this is three coats of Purple Universary with Glitter Food and G & G HK Girl top coat.

Femme Fatale – Fatal Attraction

0

Happy hump day! Today I have the last one of my four new Femme Fatale polishes, Fatal Attraction. This is a very beautiful shade packed with holographic micro-glitter and shimmer. Base is somewhat sheer and jelly-ish giving this polish some depth. Perfect color for fall! Love this!

This is three thin coats of Fatal Attraction and two coats of G & G HK Girl top coat.

Fatal Attraction applies well and smoothly. Though you should be careful with the application cos cleanup with this one is not easy. Mess your cuticles, do the cleanup and you might end up with shimmer up to your elbows ;) This also dries a little gritty, hence the two coats of HK Girl.

Femme Fatale polishes and cosmetics can be bought from their website if you live in Australia. International customers can find Femme Fatale polishes from LlaroweHarlow & CoNorway NailsShoppe Ecclecticco and Ledouxnuage.

NARS – Zulu

2

Hello again! This is probably going to be the last two post day for now. We still have a lot to do around the house and I should have daily dates with a paintbrush. I’m also finally starting to work on my womancave so that is going to take some of my precious freetime also. I’m just so happy to finally have my own space and to move all the makeup and nail stuff out of our bedroom :)

And then to the polish. I have swatched this before but the photo isn’t very good. Since I wanted to use this as an undie to a gorgeous glitter I decided to photograph it alone first. This is the queen of green jellies, NARS Zulu. Very deep, dark green but still clearly green instead of looking black.

This is three coats of Zulu with G & G HK Girl top coat.

 

 

Zulu is a little tricky apply. There’s some balding and dragging going on. Being careful and patient with the application helps. Let each coat dry for a bit before applying the next one. I love green nail polish and I love this gorgeous jelly one too. It looks great alone and makes a nice squishy base for layering glitter.
