Hi Girls!
Was passing by the isles in CVS and found this one. I originally intended to buy Color Club one, but as I hate waiting I thought this will not differ that much too.
Snow Blast is a white crackle nail polish…That’s it. Very simple polish to describe It has nothing else specific except crackle effect. The crackle effect depends on the thickness of the layer. I prefer small and square crackles, so I apply it as thin as possible. In my opinion, it is better to use Snow Blast with bright and dark nail polishes.
I used one coat of Revlon Fire as a base.

OPI DS Amethyst with Bundle Monster Design
Hello, Girls!
The weather in Boston has been very nice in the past couple of weeks. It definitely doesn't facilitate posting. Sorry being out of touch:)
Today's post is about one of my all time favorites: OPI . It's a gorgeous light purple holographic.
For the many I also used Bundle Monster BM-201 plate with Illamasqua Baptist. I'm still struggling with perfect nail polish for Konading, most of the ones that i own do not work for me at all:(

Funky Fingers Sand and Stilettos Swatches and Review
Hello,
My initial thought was to use Sand and Stilettos as a top coat for the Revlon Teak Rose I posted yesterday. It didn’t work out though. One coat of S&S was so opaque that poor boring Teak Rose was barely seen through it. So I figured, I will apply the second coat to completely cover it. On the picture, you will still see some imperfections and berry polish near the cuticle area.
Funky Fingers Sand and Stilettos is a completely gorgeous multi-color glitter with silver base. It’s very sparkling. It is in some ways similar to POP Twinkle ( swatches are here), but the latter has a nude base.

Revlon Teak Rose Swatches and Review
Hi Guys,
I will not write much about this nail polish, because I really don’t have anything special to say.
Teak Rose is a mauve shade with burgundy undertones. It’s a very nice color, I would even say very well-behaved. It’s very appropriate for work. That might be a reason why I don’t use it so often. I feel it is to “modest” for me J

POP Nail Glam Baby Blue Swatches and Review
Baby Blue is my favorite light blue crème. I tried a lot of Essie ones before buying POP, but I couldn’t find the same one….a lot of close shades, but they were still not the same.
Baby Blue is a very light blue crème. It’s subtle and bright at the same time, a very summery shade that is nice on the toes as well.
The quality of baby Blue is the same to most of the POP nail glam polishes. It is a little thick, but 2 coats are enough for the full opacity. It also stays on the nails without chipping for 3-4 days.

Antique Green Franken Experiment
Hey Girls,
This weekend I experimented a little with green. I love green nail polishes, but I most of the ones I have are crèmes and quite plain to me. I wanted something more muted, but with hint of shimmer.
I have 2 MUFe eye shadows that I added to Illamasqua Milf.

Overall, I really liked the result. It is not an extraordinary color, but it exactly what I wanted. One of the eye shadows had a duochrome effect. Unfortunately it didn’t show in the final result, so I will experiment a little more to see what I can do.

Essie Mango Bango Swatches and Review
Mango Bango was a completely impulsive purchase. I was passing it by many times in CVS and never planned on buying, because I have a lot of red polishes. But….this time I did.
I don’t know why “mango”, because there is nothing similar to mango colors for me in this nail polish. I would describe the color as muted coral. It’s a lovely bright color and I especially like it on my toes..
The quality is good as always, but you will need 3 coats for opaque coverage.

Color Club With Abandon Swatches and Review
Hey Girls!
My weekend was quite hectic, so I decided not to do special many for the 4th of July. I just received CC with Abandon, so I tried it onJ
I don’t know why for a long time I thought that CC is not a good quality nail polish…it was an absolute “fail” for me, because right now I’m totally in love with the colors and quality.
CC With Abandon is a black-brown polish with small golden particles. It is absolutely gorgeous.
