30 Days of Colour Challenge Day 7 - Orange Smitten Polish Endless Sunset

Hello Lovelies!!

Day 7 of our challenge is another fun color, Orange.  For this challenge I chose another beauty from Smitten Polish, Endless Sunset, which was an exclusive for Edgy Polish and can still be purchased..  Endless Sunset is described as: an Edgy Polish exclusive custom color, that is a Peachy orange jelly base, packed full of bright holographic glitter!  This is the perfect color for a beach vacation on both your hands and toes. In the sunshine, the sparkle factor is off the chain! Noelie creates the most fabulous micro glitter polishes.  All my photo's were taken under an LED light bulb.  The sun has not wanted to come out for 3 days now.  Let's have a look at the photo's, shall we? 

 
 
 
There she is in all her Happy Sunshine glory!  I just love fun colors, especially for the summer time.  As you all know, Smitten Polish is one of my favorite Indie brands and I will be show casing a lot of them in this month long challenge.  If you don't own any, you are missing out!!  Noelie's creations come from her heart & soul and it shows.  There are still polishes available from her Spring 2015 collection in her Online Store  I promise you will not be disappointed and will become addicted to Smitten :)  That is all I have for today.  Until next time, keep looking up cause that's where it all is!

30 Days of Colour Challenge Day 6 - Purple ILNP Amanda Hugginkiss

Hello Lovelies!!

Today is day 6 of our swatch challenge and the color is Purple.  I selected several purple polishes that I have and then started narrowing them down,  I finally decided on ILNP Amanda Hugginkiss and wowza!!! I've had this polish for quite sometime and cannot believe I have never used it.  I was floored when I was applying it and even more so when I took the photos, the color was just amazing under my LED light!! Sadly, this isn't available for purchase, but if you can find it on Ebay or personal sales on Facebook, I would definitely grab it!!   Amanda Hugginkiss is described on the ILNP website as: Amanda Hugginkiss is a mind blowing holographic lilac colored nail polish. The purple hue of this polish is to die for and the holographic effect is second to none. Jam packed with holographic pigment, Amanda Hugginkiss falls into ILNP's "Ultra Holo" class of holographic nail polishes. Jam packed with holographic pigment, Amanda Hugginkiss falls into ILNP's "Ultra Holo" class of holographic nail polishes. Doesn't that sound like a dream polish? Let's find out, shall we? 

 
 

 
There you have it, in all its holo-y gorgeousness!! This challenge has made me aware of so many untried polishes, its just what I needed! ILNP's formula is a dream!  I had no issued at all, its like it just smoothly applied itself to my nails.  I have my eye on a few more ILNP in her shop that I will be purchasing in the future.  Do you own any polishes form ILNP?  That is all I have for today, until next time, keep looking up cause that's where is all is!

30 Days of Colour Challenge - Day 5 Green Smitten Polish Not Your Mamas Easter Grass

Hello Lovelies!!

We are at day 5, which is Green, of the 30 Days of Colour Challenge and I forgot to mention I am really challenging myself  by swatching my right hand!! I thought why not make it interesting and it has helped me quite a lot with my non-dominate hand.  I chose a gorgeous polish, Not Your Mamas Easter Grass from Smitten Polish, which is bright Neon Green glitter in a Neon Green jelly base.  Such a fun summer color!  Smitten Polish is one of my favorite Indie brand makers.  Noelie has created so many beautiful polishes and with every single one, her formula is on point, flawless and so fleek.  Yes, I learned a new word from my 25 year old!! Let's take a loot at the photo's. Shall we?




This is such a bright & fun color and who doesn't love a good micro glitter polish!! Noelie is the Queen of micro glitter polishes.  There isn't a polish she has created that I do not like, she's a mixologist of polish :)  Do you own any Smitten Polishes?  What do you think of NYMEG?  The color on my computer monitor doesn't look like the bright lime neon green color that it actually is.  That is all I have for today, until next time, keep looking up cause that's where is all is!!

30 Days of Colour Challenge Day 4 - Pink Liquid Sky Lacquer What Was Your Name Again?

Hello Lovelies!!

The weekend is here and it is a beautiful cool & breezy Saturday :)  Our theme for Day 4 is Pink and I have a ton of Pink polish, so I decided to select one that I had not tried.   I love everything about this polish.  The formula and application is perfection, simply flawless.  Wow, let's talk about the color, it is described as a neon purplish pink with light holo.  It is a gorgeous color and one of my favorite Pink polishes and photographs beautifully! The sun isn't out today, so I had my husband go to Home Depot and buy me an LED light bulb, which I am very pleased with it.  I love how my photo's turned out.



 
 
 
As a lover of Pink polish, this LSL polish just moved to the very top of my favorites list!  I cannot stop staring at my nails.  I am going to add some stamping to this mani later today.  What do you think?  Is Pink one of your favorite colors?  I have a few more Liquid Sky Lacquer polishes in my collection and I will certainly be giving those a try.  That is all I have for today, until next time, keep looking up cause that's where is all is!!

30 Days of Colour Challenge Day 3 - Yellow Girly Bits Going Bananas

Hello Lovelies and Happy Friday!!

Today is day 3 of our challenge and that color is Yellow.  It is also a school holiday in which I had planned on sleeping in and wouldn't you know it, I woke up at 4:30 this morning!! I was a little skeptical about this day as this is a rarity for me, I did not own a single yellow polish, until I remembered I had purchased Girly Bits Going Bananas for a Charity Auction.  It is certainly an unusual, but fun color.  It doesn't look good on my super fair skin, but I totally see myself using this on my toes in the summer!  Going Bananas is described as ~ a yellow crelly with multiple shades of green, chartreuse, pink, lavender, purple, fuchsia, and a hint of aqua shimmer.  After applying my new favorite base coat by OPI, Nail Envy I used 2 coats of polish and HK Girl Top Coat.  Let's have a look at the photos and incase you'd like to join us, I am including our schedule.  Its not too late to join and if you do, please join our Facebook group so you can get the Inlinkz for each day.  Simply HERE to join, I hope to see y'all there :)





There you have Going Bananas and it is a true yellow with a ton of sparkle and beautiful glitter. I did not have any issues with the application, it went on quite smoothly.  Do you own this polish or any Girly Bits Cosmetics Polishes?  That is all I have for today, until next time keep looking up cause that's where is all is!

30 Days of Colour Challenge - Day 2 Red

Hello Lovelies!!

It is day 2 of the 30 Days of Colour Challenge and it is Red!  It took me a bit to decide which red I wanted to use and in the end the winner was Enchanted Polish February 2015.  I do not own a lot of polishes in the Red family, but do plan to purchase more.  This color looks really good on fair skin.  February 2015 is a gorgeous Holo Red.  My camera was not able to pick up all of its gorgeousness that showed in the full sun.  Let's take a look a the photo's.  These were all taken in the full sun, with the exception of the bottle shots. 


 

I started using OPI Nail Envy last month and let me tell you, this stuff is AMAZING!! My nails have never been stronger and it doesn't interfere with applying polish, it works with all of them.  For this mani I used 2 thin coats of the Enchanted and 1 coat of HK Girl Top Coat.  I wish my camera would have been able to capture the true beauty and rainbow sparkle of the polish.  What do think of this shade of Red?  Do you own any Enchanted Polishes?  That is all I have for Today, until next time keep looking up cause that's where it all is!

30 Days of Colour Swatch Challenge - Day 1 Blue

Hi Lovelies!!

I am going to be very busy this month and I a super excited to be participating in the 30 Days of Colour Challenge,  hosted by Katherine Marie, for the month of April.  Our first color is Blue and I immediately knew it was time I tired Chaos and Crocodile Sleeper Cell.  I've had this polish for some time now and wow, it is GORGEOUS!!  Let's take a look at the photo's.  I used 2 coats which applied fabulously and HK Girl Top Coat.

 
 

 
 

I love holographic Blue polish!  All of my photo's were taken in direct sun light, except for the last photo with the Rose, the sun decided to take a break.  Such a beautiful polish and I did not have any issues with the application, the formula was flawless.  This could have been a 1 coater, but out of habit, I used 2 coats.  What do you think?  Do you have any C&C in your collection?  Until next time, keep looking up cause that's where it all is!
