Colores de Carol Marshmallow Candy Apple
Hey guys!
Nothing To Disclose
Today we finally have some red polishes to view, lol. I own a lot more green polishes than I do red :-p
Today we have Colores de Carol Marshmallow Candy Apple, a red jelly with assorted glitter sizes and shapes. For a jelly, this built up to opacity very nicely in two coats.
Talk to you soon!

Colores de Carol Fall Holos - My Picks!
Hey guys!
Nothing To Disclose
Today I have my picks from the Fall 2015 Colores De Carol collection! Let's just get to it, shall we?
Shale is a greenish, bronzeish holo with platinum microflakes. This was 2 coats plus topcoat. The formula was really really good. I would say thick but not at all difficult to work with!
Obsidian is black holo with the same platinum silver flakes. This was almost opaque in one coat but I used two to cover the tiniest bare spots, plus topcoat. Another great formula!
Granite is a silver holographic polish with platinum flakes and rainbow holographic microglitter. umm how sparkly and beautiful is this?! I used 3 coats but it was so so close to being opaque in 2 coats. I only used one coat of topcoat for this polish and it smoothed out nicely.
Have you tried Colores de Carol? She's been on a roll releasing collections lately and her brand is very quickly becoming one of my favorites! <3

Colores de Carol Summer Holos
Hey guys!
Nothing To Disclose
Yep, summer holos. That are being featured in the fall. Hey listen, if I buy a polish, I am not the fastest at reviewing it, lol.
That being said, Colores de Carol released some beautiful jewel toned holo's that work for any season, in my opinion.
Sapphire Princess is a dark blue holo. This had a nice formula, was opaque in two coats. Topcoat added.
Malachite is dark teal holo. Again, really great formula and opaque in two coats. Topcoat added.
See what I mean? These colors are perfect for fall and really, who cares what season you wear a specific color anyway? LOL
Are you sick of seeing blues and greens on my blog yet? Whoops...

Colores de Carol Beach Boys Collection
Hey guys!
Nothing To Disclose
The Beach Boys collection from Colores de Carol was released earlier this summer but I'm super slow and am just now getting around to swatching these neons! Yikes. There are 7 polishes here so let's get to them.
For the sake of me not repeating myself, all of these polishes were layered over white and I didn't use a topcoat for any of these. As they are neons, they dried matte. AND with the exception of one polish, they were all two coats.
Good Vibrations is a neon yellow.
Do You Wanna Dance? is a bright orange.
All Summer Long is a bright coral pink.
Surfin' USA is a brighter pink than All Summer Long.
Fun Fun Fun is a fuchsia. This was 3 coats. This polish was a bit streaky but also somehow too thick? I had some issues with this polish and had to reapply this color several times.
Sail On Sailor is a bright cobalt blue.
I Get Around is a bright neon green. This is a little bit brighter in person and as you can see, I had to adjust my camera settings to capture some of the neon, lol.
These colors are really pretty but can be a bit tricky to work with. You have to work quickly but precisely because they tend to dry fast and can look uneven if you have overlapping brush strokes.

Twinsie Tuesday: Shiny & Matte Combo
Hey guys!
Nothing To Disclose
Heeyyyyyyyy so this is not really as matte and shiny as I would have liked but we're rolling with it, mmmkay? Okay.
I used 2 coats of Colores de Carol Aster as my base color, which was a limited edition polish and is now sold out.... sorrrrry!
Then I applied some nail vinyls from..... a brand.... that I cannot remember (whoops. They don't label the back of the vinyl, I can't remember all of these things!) and applied CdC 50K. Initially I tried to matte the holo and shiny topcoat the dots but that wasn't happening so I slapped matte topcoat on the ring finger and guess what, you still can't tell it's matte! Sigh. Whatever, I give up lol.
Be sure to check out the rest of the twinsies shiny and matte manicures!

Colores de Carol Summer Fun Collection
Hey guys!
Nothing To Disclose
I have the summer collection from Colores de Carol today!
SPF15 is an orange yellow or as I like to say "yorange", heehee. This was a bit streaky so I did 3 coats.
Tan Lines is orange but almost a pinky orange in person. This was also three coats.
Bright Shorts is a hot pink; this was brighter in person and more vibrant. 3 coats.
Flip My Flops is a purple neon. This had a little better formula that the previous polishes so I only needed 2 coats.
Watching Clouds is a bright sky blue. 3 coats. I have no idea what was happening to my camera this night but I was missing pictures and half of the photos were blurry. Maybe I should stop swatching at night, lol!
Kiwi Popsicle is a lime green, but I should really say a bright kiwi green, right? This was 3 coats.
What do you think?

Colores De Carol Happy Hour Collection
Hey guys!
Nothing To Disclose
Today I have the Happy Hour collection from Colores De Carol. As you might guess by the title, these are named after adult beverages and they all sound delicious and thirst quenching and I wanted all of them, lol.
Most of these were opaque in two coats but for the sake of continuity, I used three coats for all of the swatches, with no top coat. These are all holographic foil polishes, as well.
Pineapple Margarita (HOW DELICIOUS DOES THAT SOUND?!) is a beautiful yellow foil holographic. I love love love this color, it's so unique!
Papaya Sake is a coraly red. It looks like red peppers, doesn't it? So pretty.
Strawberry Bourbon Lemonade is a pinky red. Are we getting thirsty yet? I am.
Sour Grape Bellini is a dark purple, almost blue. I lurve this, no surprise.
Sea Mist Sunrise is a light teal blue.
Mint Mojito is a stinking gorgeous grass green!!
And then we have Silver Cloud Martini, a silver. This was basically amazing so you get two pictures of this polish, lol.
So yeah, these are beautiful and make me thirsty and are also just beautiful. So you should buy them.
