Polish Me Silly Thermals!

Hey everyone! I've been wanting a thermal polish so badly for the longest time. Like lusting over them lol. Luckily for me, I just got my first ones! I got three from Polish Me Silly (formerly Lush Lacquer). 

First is "Grape Intentions"

    Natural light. 

This is a jelly polish with a fun assortment of purple, pink, and silver glitter. It's purple when room temperature/hot. 

    Natural light. 

When cold, it's a gorgeous pink! 

And here's a transition shot!


Next is "I'm Bananas 4 U"

    Natural light. 

I love this! My fave thermal! When cold, it's green and yellow when warm. It has green and yellow hexes, micro gold, and yellow dot glitter!

Last is "Peach Me A Lesson"

    Natural light. 

This one is cute and girly, so awesome! So this thermal polish is light pink when warm/hot and a peachy pink colour when cold. It has various various pinks and sized glitter. 

I didn't have to fish for any glitter, application was so smooth and perfect. I highly recomend these! All photos are three coats of polish. If you're interested in buying from this indie company, you can find them on Instagram @polishmesilly2 and their website is polishmesilly.etsy.com.

Sally Hansen Triple Shine

Hello everyone! I recently received some Sally Hansen Triple Shine polishes in a nail mail swap. I was super happy to have got them because I previously hadn't tried them before. Anyway here they are! 

This is "Drama Sheen"

    Natural light. 

This is an unexpected fave for me. I can't stress enough how absolutely perfect and feminine this polish is. It's a sheer purple with iridescent shimmer. I used 2 coats. 

Here's "Fanta-Sea"

    Natural light

Fanta-Sea is blue/silver glitter in a clear base. I layers it over Fingerpaints "Tiffany Imposter". 

Next is "Slick Black"

    Natural light. 

This is a black base with a silver shimmer, I used 2 coats and it dried really fast! 

Last but not least is "Pearly Whites"

    Natural light

This is a flakie glitter topper in a clear base. I layered a thin layer over OPI "Black Onyx". These flakies are really thin and easy to manage!

China Glaze Monster's Ball

Hey everyone! It's almost Halloween...who's excited?! I am! My daughter is going as a furby this year lol. Anyway, today I have the Monsters Ball Collection from China Glaze. This is the 2013 Halloween collection. I waited so long for this and I'm glad I'm finally able to swatch it for y'all! I am missing one however and that is the black texture, Bump in The Night. 

First up is "Howl You Doin'"
    Natural lighting. 
This was so hard to capture. It is a purple jelly with purple and orange flakies. It's a stunner. This was 2 coats. 

Here's "Fang-tastic"
    Natural lighting. 

"Fang-tastic" is a glitter topper in a clear base and has small pink,green,and blue hex and circle glitters. This is over OPI Black Onyx. 

This is "Boo-gie Down"
    Natural lighting. 

This is another glitter topper in a clear base and contains various sized white, gold,black, bar, hex and circle glitters. This is over Rimmel "Grey Matter". 

This one is "Bat My Eyes". 
    Artificial light. 

This is a black jelly loaded with different sized gold glitters! My favourite part about this polish is that there's orange bars in here too! You can see them easier in the bottle. 

Last up is "Ghoulish Glow" 

Pretty disappointing huh? I applied 2 coats, charged them under a light and this was the result. So ya, thumbs down. 

That's all! Hope you all have a good Halloween! Be safe out there!

More Hard Candy Polish!

Hey guys! I found 2 more of the new Hard Candy polishes at Wal-Mart! 

This is "Crush On Hot Pink". 

   Natural lighting. 

So this one is from the Crushed Chromes collection. It's a beautiful bright pink packed with shimmer and had a great formula. This is 2 coats. 

Here's "Bite Of Black" 

    Natural lighting. 

If you like black and or glitter polish, this is for you! It had a jelly like consistency and has silver, pink and blue micro glitters. This is from the Itzy Glitzy collection. 

Definitely recommend grabbing these while you can! There are 2 others that I haven't swatched and one is called "Touch Of Teal" from the Crushed Chromes Collection and the other is a glitter called "Bridal Party" from the Crystal Confetti collection and retail for about $4 CAD. 

Thanks for stopping by! I'd love to hear your thoughts on these and the others as well and don't forget you can find me on Instagram @polishednubs !
