Catrice "Wrapped Around My Finger"

It's been awhile since I wore my favorite European polish brand...CATRICE!!!

I love this brand, and if I had my way , I would seriously own the entire line!

Great formula, great drying time and it wear like KRYPTONITE on my nails, and the dded bonus is that is is a drug store brand in Europe...what a great deal you ladies get with this brand!

Catrice
"Wrapped Around My Finger"
 2 coats





















































I swear "Catrice" has ME wrapped around their finger..LOL. This is a great bright fuchsia cream, with an even brighter pink shimmer. LOVE< LOVE< LOVE!!! I wore this one for...*wait for it*...5 days!




























I was having a busy week, and I just could not find the time to do my nails once I got home, and to tel the truth, wearing this for 5 days..DID NOT bother me! :) No chips, no fuss, no problem!



























I also received a lot of compliments, so this bad boy is now one of my favorite pinks!

*Yes, I have a favorite pinks list, but it's very, very small* LOL! :)

Color Club Foiled: Swatches and Review

"From New York-based Color Club, the new Foiled Collection—six luxurious liquid metallic nail polishes that are sure to dazzle. From metallic pink to blue, green and gold—each color perfectly combines chrome-like shine with strong as metal wear."

"Lumin-icecent"
2 coats








































A gorgeous baby blue foil, so smooth and pretty! Blue perfection!

"Cold Metal"
2 coats



























 I love this color blue, but the fol texture on this color does not, "WOW ME", like the previous blue. 

The foil texture is not as even as the previous blue, as if the blue and the foil are fighting to gain attention. .  Not my favorite, but still a pretty smooth blue!
 
"Hot Like Lava"
2 coats







































 A pretty hot pink foil, the formula is very similar to the previous blue. The color is gorgeous, but is a bit muted in this "foil formula"...definitely HOT, but not my favorite!
 
"Foil Me Once"
2 coats








































Wow, this pink is awesome! *wait* did I just use pink and awesome in the same sentence?? LOL.  "Light pink" and "foil" ...were meant to be together!

"Antiquated"
2 coats 



























A perfect nude foil, just enough pizazz and shimmer to take this nude to another level!

 Perfect Mol-Ten
2 coats









































Love this one, that is why I swatched it last! It's a perfect icy green, It reminds me of chocolate mint ice cream (without the chips), or green sherbet! :)

OMG, I can not believe that I am about to say this.....my Favorites are the PASTEL metallic colors...Seriously! Lumin-icecent, Foil Me Once, Antiquated, Perfect Mol-Ten, are awesome! Must haves in my book!!!!  They are simply ELECTRIC!  Smooth, and perfectly foil-like!

OPI "Blue My Mind"

Today is truly  a Blue Monday ..the weather is getting cooler and it is 8:30am and i still do not have any SUN!

So today I have an OPI I received in a swap, and although it looked pretty average n the bottle, on the nail it was really stunning!

OPI "Blue My Mind"
2 coats



























I love the bright robins egg blue shimmer from within, so pretty!














For fun I added a layer of The Painted Nail "Moon Drop " Top Layer on my ring finger as a accent.  I was going to put in on the entire manicure, but the blue was so stunning, I just had to let it "Do It's Thang"..LOL :)









































The glitter in "Moon Drops" is very smooth, and easy to apply. I really like how the glitter, at times, almost looks translucent and like a shimmer grey...kinda like the moon ;)



























Next time, I'll do 2 coats of "Moon Drops", over a deeper blue , in order to mimic a night sky! :)

Happy "Blue Monday"!

Serious BLING!!!!

My "dusty beauty supply", and I mean DUSTY, now carries Dare to Wear, and this bright beauty SCREAMED at me...TAKE ME HOME!!!!!














Dare To Wear "Hologram Diamond".

Now because this is a SUPER glitter, I knew to first apply a base color, so removal would be easier. I did a layer of OPI "Your Royal Shine-ness", then I did 2 coats of  Dare To Wear "Hologram Diamond". :)












































This was a serious disco ball on my nails! Serious!!!!! Now because glitters are "hungry, hungry hippos" for top coat, so I did 2 coats of top coat. 

The first was 1 coat of "Gelous" and then a nice thick coat of Seche Vite to follow. :) *nom nom nom*



























Awesome!  The application was very easy, and not clumpy at all.  The glitter was opaque in 2 coats and after using the "Foil Method", it came off nicely after 4 days of wear.















Happy Friday!!!!!
