Wet n Wild Wild Shine Pop Art Craze Collection

Hi! Today I have Wet n Wild Wild Shine Pop Art Craze Collection! This came out a while ago but I was just able to get my hands on it now! This collection consists of 6 cremes. 

Here's "Blank Canvas"
    Natural lighting 
This is 2 coats. It is probably one of the best whites I own. Streaky on the first coat but applies beautifully on the second. 

This is "The Clock Strikes Orange"
    Natural lighting. 
Once again, a great 2 coater with nice application. 

This is "Teal Slowly And See". 
    Natural lighting. 
My favourite blue hands down. This is 2 coats. 

Here's "Listening To Blue Reed". 
    Natural lighting. 
Once again, a gorgeous 2 coater blue. 
It also had a good dry time. 

This is "Who Is Ultra Violet?"
    Natural lighting. 
Isn't this beautiful?! This went on like butter. 2 coats. 

Last up is " Stand The Test Of Lime"
    Natural lighting. 
As you can see, there is VNL with 2 coats. With a white undie, this is a nice green. 

I've seen these retail between $1-$2. If you see them, grab them!! They are totally worth it. 

That's all folks! Thanks for stopping by!

Sindie POP! and KB Shimmer

Hey everyone! Sorry I've been missing for a while. I started going back to school last month so that's been taking up a lot of my time. Today I have some indie polishes to show you! 

First up, Falling:With Style! From Sindie POP! 
    Natural Light. 

This is supposed to resemble Buzz Lightyear from Toy Story. What a perfect match, right?! This is a milky white base with assorted size red,blue,dark and light green glitters. There was no fishing for glitter, and it went on perfect. This is 2 coats with no topcoat.
The next polishes are all from KB Shimmer. 

Here's "The Dancing Green".
    Natural light. 

This is a green jelly base with assorted sized purple,green and blue circle and square glitters. This is 2 coats no topcoat. I turned the bottle upside for a out a minute before applying to make sure I got some of those squares!

This is "Jack". 

    Natural light. 

This has been a major lemming for me and I'm so happy I have it now considering it's discontinued! So, this is a  black jelly with black and orange hex,bar and micro circle glitters. No fishing with this one! This is 2 coats, no topcoat. 

This is "Would Jubillee It?"

    Natural light. 
    Natural light. 

Circle glitters!!!!!! This is gorgeous! This is 2 coats over China Glaze "Charmed, I'm Sure". This has assorted sized purple, silver, dark and light blue dots and small bar glitters. It's amazing.

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!

Color Club Haul

Hey guys!! So today I have a few of Color Club's Polishes. All the formulas were the same; easy to apply, quick dry and 2 coats. The first polishes are from the Starry Temptress collection and all have holographic glitter but once applied don't look so holographic. You'll see what I mean :)

Here's "Otherworldly". 

    Indoor lighting. 

Don't look so holo, huh? This has a jellyish formula and dried semi matte. 

This is "Glitter Envy". 

    Natural lighting. 

A bright jelly green with holo glitters and dried semi matte. 

Last for this collection is "Wink,Wink,Twinkle". 

    Natural lighting. 

This is also a jelly, semi matte. I love how the glitters look purple-ish!

Here's "Fame & Fortune" from the Backstage Pass collection. 

    Direct sunlight. 

This picture does no justice. If you love shard glitter and jellies then this is for you!  This is bright red/pink jelly with holo shreds. 

Thanks for stopping by!!

O.P.I San Francisco Fall Collection 2013

Hi guys! Today I have 3 polishes from OPI's San Francisco Fall Collection. To be honest, I didn't like most of them and I'm a huge fan of Fall colours. But they are definitely still worth checking out! 

Here's "In The Cable Car-Pool Lane". 
    Natural light. 
This is such a gorgeous burgundy colour!  I had to use 3 coats. With just 2, you could still see through it a bit. 

Here's "It's All San Andreas Fault". 
    Natural light. 
Love! Great application and dry time! This. Is 2 coats. 

Last is "Alcatraz...Rocks". 
    Direct sunlight. 

First of all, please excuse the oil lol. This is a smoky navy blue/purple with beautiful glitter! This is a must have for everyone! 


    Blurred to show all that sparkle!

I hope everyone enjoyed this! I'd love to hear your thoughts on these and your opinions on the others!!
