Brand Blast: Glam Polish Week!

Hey guys!

Nothing To Disclose

First, I want to apologize for my little nub index finger. The homey betrayed the family and she has no excuse.

It's time for another Brand Blast! This time, it's all about Glam Polish. Quickly becoming one of my favorite brands, they deliver stellar formulas and gorgeous colors!

Pop! is coral pink with a strong scattered holo. This was two perfect coats (which is very standard for Glam Polish. I don't think I own one GP that has needed more than 2 coats and the formula's are basically perfection!). Shown with topcoat.

Bibbidi-Bobbidi-Boo is a matte pastel glitter ix of pink, teal, blue, and purple with assorted shapes and sizes. This was one coat over Pop!, with topcoat.

Respect is medium to dark purple with another strong scattered holo. Again, two perfect coats plus topcoat.

Talk to you soon!

Black Dahlia Lacquer Week: Grape Hyacinth

Hey guys!

Nothing To Disclose

And so we come to the end of this edition of Brand Blast featuring Black Dahlia Lacquer. Of course I had to end with a fabulous glitter polish :)

Grape Hyacinth is "full coverage glitter in a violet jelly packed with blue, aqua and green holo glitter, with accents of purple, iridescent blue-purple and silver glitter, and lavender shimmer". This was 3 coats, but was very close to being opaque in two coats and I just needed to cover a few tiny "bald" spots". Plus topcoat. 

Well, I hope that you enjoyed Black Dahlia Lacquer week. I really enjoy this brand! I will say, my only complaint is the bottle is too tall to fit in my helmer drawer but that's obviously not a real issue, lol.

Talk to you soon!

Onward to the finish line! Today for Black Dahlia Lacquer week, we are looking at one of the brighter shades that I own from the brand, Wild Cherry Blossoms, a cherry red holo. This was 2 easy coats, plus topcoat and please know that this was much more holo in person and in the sunlight!


Are you enjoying Black Dahlia Lacquer week thus far? One more to go!

Black Dahlia Lacquer Mint Sprog Frost

Hey guys!

Nothing To Disclose

Black Dahlia Week continues with Mint Sprog Frost, which is a "green tinted holographic top coat with teal to purple to magenta multichrome flakies and glass flecks that shift from turquoise to purple to red with accents of holographic pewter". However, I used 2 coats plus topcoat for this swatch and it was opaque enough to pass, in my book :)

Brand Blast: Black Dahlia Week!

Hey guys!

Nothing To Disclose

I'm going to have another Brand Blast this week, featuring Black Dahlia Lacquer! BDL is an indie based in Texas and they have some beautiful polishes!

Let's start this week with Reduce, Reuse, Recycle, a light green crelly with green, gold, and blue flakies. This was 2 easy coats, plus topcoat.

Unfortunately, this polish is no longer available, as it was a limited edition Earth Day release. Whoops.

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:

With Topcoat:

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