Butter London "Knees Up"

Hello there, today I have my new favorite red.  OKAY.....my "old-old" favorite red was Orly "Red Flare", then my "old" favorite red was China Glaze "Ruby Pumps", but this is my "new" favorite red, Butter London "Knees Up"...confused yet..LOL! :)

Well, anyway, it's a gorgeous metallic red color, that is simply beautiful, and perfect for the holidays.

Butter London
"Knees Up"
2 coats














I did my usual technique, OPI Nail Envy Base Coat, 2 coats of color, OPI Top Coat and Seche Vite.

To jazz it up a bit (as if it needed it), I added 1 coat of OPI "Gettin Miss Piggy With It" on the ring finger and the thumb :)




























KU was super easy to apply, no issues..actually I did have one issue...I didn't want to change my manicure.  These photos are after 3 days, and I still wore it for 2 more days, and loved every minute of it.



























Because the OPI is red and silver glitter in a clear base, it adds a nice sparkle to the Butter London, without too much contrast. Just a little bling for the holidays! :)



























I have 2 other Butter London colors, I need to try "Wallis" and "Bluey" :) You can find Butter London at their online store, Nordstroms, Ulta and Planet Beauty.

After my manicure, I made this my next pedicure color and I now have STUNNING TOES!


Keep It Sweet Ladies!

Cult Nails "Hypnotic Collection" Fall 2011

Sorry, I've been gone for the past couple of days, but I needed some ME time...LOL!

So, while I was enjoying some time to my self, I discovered I had never shared with you my Cult Nails Hypnotic Collection from Fall 2011 collection!

I can't believe I never shared these colors with you, considering it was such a great fall collection.

Cult Nails
"In A Trance"
2 coats
 "'In a Trance' shifts from olive green to a muted gold and has an enchanting shimmer that brings it to life."








































Then, I decided to add the glitter from the set, Cult Nails "Hypnotize me" on top for fun! 1 coat

"'Hypnotize Me' lives up to it's name as an ice green sheer jelly with vibrant blue and green glitter that is marvelous on its own or layered over any color in this collection!"






























And I LOVE the "burrito" packaging....














And check out the great cotton balls she uses as stuffing, I put these to good use :) (they do not come in a bag).














Cult Nails
"Awakening"
2 coats
" 'Awakening' is a muted teal that has a rich creme finish"








































Topped with "Hypnotize me", 1 coat....




























Cult Nails
"Enigmatic"
2 coats
 "'Enigmatic' is a purple base with silver shimmer that draws flashes of red, blue, purple, and pink sparkle in the sunlight."








































Topped with "Hypnotize Me", 1 coat...








































Seriously, "Hypnotize Me", takes every color in this collection and puts them on another level! GORGEOUS!!!

I had no issues with the 3 shimmers and cremes. Applied nicely and dried to a perfect shine every time.  "Hypnotize Me", was a bit thick at first, but after a good shaking,  It was fine :)

I heard the top coat and base coat are super good, so I'll be adding them to my next order. :)

Looking at these pics, I am reminded why I love this collection so much, the versatility in color and texture is astounding !! I missed the pre-sale for the newest collection "Super Powers", but as soon as it is restocked, I'm getting it!

B.I.B.(Bring It Back 2)- Available NOW


 



















ReBeL [n. reb-uh'l]
  1. A special breed of Rescue Beauty Lounge nail polish fanatic
  2. A sneaky 007 type best known for outsmarting the democratic voting system
  3. A wild devotee with a knack for gathering followers, enabling others, and frightening strangers.
Rescue Beauty has an incredible community of some of the most diverse, remarkable fans who have coined the term ReBeL – hardcore RBL aficionados. ReBeLs are truly devoted, albeit eccentric. Case in point: after 48 hours of some of the most intense voting in RBL history (staying up all night across the globe, creating a color war on our Facebook page, lobbying votes from strangers in the grocery store, stealing borrowing phones from friends and relatives…), you ladies (…and at least one man) have shown that while fans may come and go, ReBeLs are for life.

Anne – This multifaceted polish is for the bold ReBeL with a good head on her shoulders - one we'd like to see you keep for a while.

360 – For the laid-back ReBeL who would rather walk barefoot in the sand than strut around in stilettos, 360 offers a serene escape from the daily grind.

Locavore – Everyone has that friend who can stay out all night and look perfect in the morning. Here's a way to bottle just an ounce (or 0.4 oz) of her energy for that special occasion.

Scrangie – This one is a bit of a chameleon – is she purple, is she blue, is she green? Maybe she just can't make up her mind. Sound familiar, darling ReBeLs?

Orbis Non Sufficit – This is the kind of balance only a ReBeL can understand: one day you've got a statement piece, the next you're rocking an edgy neutral. All you have to change is your perspective.

Mismas РYou clever ReBeLs figured out how to bring back the entire Blogger Collection. This not-too-girly/not-too-edgy violet cr̩me will perfectly glam up the nails of any double agent Рor girl next door (your secret is safe with me).
