Love, Angeline 10/16

Hey guys!

Nothing To Disclose

A quick post today to show you this gorgeous polish from Love, Angeline: 10/16. This is a deep olive green holo with some gold shimmer. Uhm hello. Are you seeing this? ARE YOU SEEING THIS COLOR I LOVE IT SO MUCH! It was also almost completely opaque in one coat but I had the tinies smallest bald spot in a few small areas so I added a second coat.

Talk to you soon!

Love, Angeline

Hey guys!

Nothing To Disclose

Today I have the limited edition Love, Angeline My Pony Brights collection, a 4 piece set of neons with iridescent flakies! These are super limited and will not be restocked but they are still on the site as of this draft (Which is Tuesday at 9:50pm, lol)

First is Apple Blossom, a neon green with iridescent flakies and shimmer. This was the most sheer of the bunch and was still a bit patchy after three coats but it was also  my last swatch of the night so that could have been user error.

Next is Mac -N- Tosh, a bright coral orange with the iridescent flakies and shimmer. Again, 3 coats plus topcoat.

Pinky Pal is a neon pink with the same iridescent flakies and shimmer. And again 3 coats plus topcoat.

Spike's Crush is fuchsia purple neon with flakies and shimmer. Again, 3 coats plus topcoat.

I love the pinks and the orange the best! Mac-N-Tosh is so vibrant and bright!

Twinsie Tuesday: Marbling (Dry/Needle/Water)

Hey guys!

Nothing To Disclose

An announcement before we get to this weeks Twinsie Tuesday post! I am changing my blogging schedule and will now be posting on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays and posting videos on Mondays and Fridays. So if you don't see me posting on here on Monday's and Friday's, that is why :)

Today we are doing marbling of the dry, water, or needling sort. I hate marbling of all kinds because I am just wretched at it. But I had to try so here we go.

I used Love, Angeline Cosmo from the Let's Grab a Drink collection, no longer available. Whoops. This is a one coater and will dry matte. For the marbling, I made a decal using Cosmo and Glacier, also not available, whoops.

Then I dotted Glacier on my other nails and added a thick coat of topcoat. I'm actually more proud of my dots than my marbling, lol!

Twinsie Tuesday: Shattered Glass

Hey guys!

Nothing To Disclose

Today we are doing Shattered Glass nails. All of the shattered glass nails that I have seen use the iridescent cellophane but I didn't have any of that and remembered to do these nails... umm... kinda late, lol. So I improvised! And unfortunately, all three of the polishes that I used are no longer available. Whoops. I'm sorry.

I started with two coats of Love, Angeline No Dot About It, a white crelly with neon circle and hex glitters. I used her Topped With Love topcoat and let these nails dry for a bit.

Then, using one of Love, Angeline's Herringbone nail vinyls (btw, Love Angeline is discontinuing her nail vinyls and they are some of my favorites so hurry over to her shop to take advantage of her 50% off sale witht he code SOL50!), I used a cosmetic wedge and sponged on Mystery Holo #1 (purple) and #14 (green). I really really REALLY loved these. It's not the exact look I was picturing in my head but i love how they turned out!

Have you done Shattered Glass nails before? Do you like them?

Favorite Nail Polishes of 2015: Day 2

Hey guys!

Nothing To Disclose

And here's Day 2 of my favorite polishes of 2015! I forgot to mention yesterday but I didn't pick a specific number of polishes, just whatever I really loved. Not that it matters, but just so you know ;-)

Today's polish was immediately placed on the Favorites list the second I applied it. This is Love, Angeline Bourbon from the Let's Grab A Drink collection. Simply a stunning color, this is ONE COAT! Dead. Done. Dead. SO perfect.

BUT THEN!! You add topcoat and the golden shimmer completely comes alive and I cry a little due to its beauty!

This was one of my favorites from this collection because.... well, look at it! But all of the polishes that I have from this collection are stunning and I recommend any of them!

YOU GUYS! IT'S CHRISTMAS EVE HOW IS THIS POSSIBLE?! I hope you have a wonderful Christmas! I won't be posting tomorrow but we will resume Favorite Nail Polishes of 2015 on Monday!

Have a great weekend!

Brand Blast: Love, Angeline Week!

Hey guys!

Nothing To Disclose

It's time for another Brand Blast, which is a week long feature of one of my favorites brands. This week, we are looking at Love, Angeline. Her Harmonious Gemstones are seriously gorgeous and this week, I have some polishes from her Let's Grab a Drink collection, a collection of matte shimmers. Guys. STUNNING. Each polish was more beautiful than the next. But I'm getting ahead of myself.

The first polish is Shandy, a golden yellow matte polish with gold shimmer.  I used two coats here but it was very very very close to being opaque in 1 coat.

Without topcoat:

Ummm yeah. In love. Have you tried Love, Angeline before? What are your favorite polishes from her brand?

Polish 'M & Love, Angeline Halloween Duo

Hey guys!

Nothing To Disclose

Sooooo this is apparently the week of showing polishes that you can't purchase, whoops! This is the Halloween Duo from Polish 'M and Love, Angeline. This has sold out and as far as I know, there are no plans for a restock.

Polish 'M's contribution is called Spooktacular. This is a white crelly with purple, yellow, orange, and black glitters in assorted sizes and shapes. The glitters were abundant in this polish and no fishing was required. This took 3 coats to cover completely and I added one coat of topcoat.

Love, Angeline's contribution is called A Little Batty. This is a black jelly with purple, green, and yellow circle glitters, with microglitters abounding throughout. This was 2 coats, plus topcoat. Again, no fishing required; the glitters were easily applied to the nail.

What do you think of these? I love black jellies so I'm partial to the Love, Angeline but they are both really fun for Halloween!

Talk to you soon!

Twinsie Tuesday: Inspired by Your BFF

Hey guys!

Nothing To Disclose

Today we are doing mani's inspired by our BFF and my BFF requested purple and hearts so here it is.

I used Love, Angeline Mystery Holo #2 and Love Letters, a Love Angeline Facebook group custom, for a gradient. After that dried for a bit, I applied a nail decal that I had made with Tanzanite Staccato using some nail vinyls. A heart because she requested it and a wine glass because what's more fun than sharing a drink with a friend?

The polishes are so sparkly that it is a bit distracting to see everything, lol. TOO SPARKLY?! No, just very sparkly!

Love, Angeline Swatches

Hey guys!

Nothing To Disclose

I have some swatches of the most recent Harmonious Gemstones from Love, Angeline and I threw in a swatch of one of her glitters for good measure.

First, the glitter is Since The Beginning of Time, a glitter bomb that features every glitter Natosha has used since she opened up shop. It was densely packed and this was one coat over China Glaze Boho Blues, with topcoat.

Now onto the Harmonious Gemstones!

First is Rubellite Melodies is a pink polish. The Gemstones are typically pretty opaque in one coat, but two is preferred for full opacity. This was two coats with no top coat.

With topcoat:

Rhythym in Aquamarine is an aqua colored polish. These were all the same formula, 2 coats. Actually, all of these were 2 coats :-)
No topcoat:

With topcoat:

Rhapsody in Cymophane is a yellow gold polish. Again, 2 coats. No topcoat:

With topcoat:

Score-d Garnets is the red gemstone and I love this one. Again, 2 coats, no top coat.

With topcoat:

Finally, Triadic Gemstones is a multi colored gemstone and it's pretty amazing. This was again two coats, no topcoat.

MACRO!! With topcoat! Let's just gaze in the beauty of this. Soooo amazing.

You can purchase Love, Angeline polishes here.

Top 14 from 2014!

Hey guys!

Nothing To Disclose Press Sample Affiliate Link

I bring you... My Favorite 14 Nail Manicures of 2014! Or 14 from 2014, as my biffle Amanda (@GlitterBadass) named it. This will be my first favorites post since I've been blogging!! It's unclear why I'm so terrible at making these lists; probably because I have a horrible memory and can never remember half of the things I use during the year, lol! So I am going down memory blogging lane and showing you my favorite posts from the year! I will be featuring polishes that were blogged about and polishes shown on Instagram!

These are in no particular order, except that I went back through my Instagram and started in January, so they appear in the order they originally did on IG! I will leave the captions for those photos, as they contain all of the pertinent information :-)
