Brand Blast: Glam Polish Finale!

Hey guys!

Nothing To Disclose

And we've come to the last day of Glam Polish Week! Have you enjoyed it? Do you like these Indie Features? I personally like swatching a whole brand at once for several reasons, one being that I often forget what polishes I have from a certain brand and these help me to remember! LOL. So let's get to the last day of Glam Polish Week!

Firework is medium green  linear holo. As I mentioned with all of the other polishes this week, a perfect formula and 2 glorious coats, plus topcoat.

Zonk! is dark teal strong scattered holo with large holographic glitters. Again, 2 perfect coats, plus topcoat.

Somewhere That's Green is an emerald green with gold holographic glitter. Anddd again, 2 perfect coats plus topcoat. So so gorgeous.

Alright, that's a wrap on Glam Polish week! I have some ideas for future Brand Blast features, so stay tuned! :)

Have you tried Glam Polish? What are your favorites?

Talk to you soon!

Twinsie Tuesday: Grey & Gold

Hey guys!

Nothing To Disclose

Today we are doing Grey and Gold, a combination that I happen to love. Actually, I really enjoy gray and any bright color; it seems so chic to me. Anyway, I set off to create a chic grey and gold manicure and this is what I came up with!

Glam Polish Thwaak! is technically a black linear holo but I mean... you have to have grey to get to black, right? Man, I'm getting really good at cheating at Twinsie Tuesday!! LOL!! This was two perfect (as per usual with Glam Polish) coats. I used a nail vinyl placed randomly on the nail (meaning not straight, but at an angle) and sponged Yeah 3x over Thwaak! I used a coat of topcoat and voila! I quite liked these. I wish the effect had been a little more dramatic but I still liked this subtle gradient!

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.

Themed Thursday: Snowflakes

Hey guys!

Nothing To Disclose

One of my resolutions for 2016 is to further my nail arting, so my BTN buddy convinced me to join the Themed Thursday prompts that Kelli Marissa (formerly The Nail Polish Challenge) and Wondrously Polished host.

Every Thursday, there is a different prompt, much like we do on Twinsie Tuesday. The first theme is Snowflakes!

To be quite honest, I didn't really want to do Snowflakes because I just did them not too long ago but I wanted to participate so I sucked it up, lol.

I used Glam Polish Zoom! (the blue) which was 2 COMPLETELY PERFECT coats. I used 2 coats of Welcome to the 60's on my ring and middle fingers and then dotted Zoom! in a (sort of) snowflake pattern, lol. I did use two coats of topcoat for Welcome to the 60's, as it was a bit textured.

If you participate in this, be sure to use the hashtag #themedthursdayjan!

Glam Polish Hey Ya

Hey guys!

Nothing To Disclose

Glam Polish is one of those brands that I don't think can do any wrong. They have gorgeous polishes, amazing formulas, and even though they are an international brand, they have a shipping station in the U.S., right here in Michigan, to be precise! So no expensive shipping rates or long waits for beautiful polishes!

Hey Ya is a gold micro holo glitter. And this picture does it no justice because it's beautiful and amazing. And I want all of the Glam Polishes ever, okay? Thanks.

Oh, by the way, this was 2 coats, lol.

Talk to you soon!

Twinsie Tuesday: A Technique You Love...

Hey guys!

Nothing To Disclose

...but haven't tried in a while.

Well I was flaky and lazy and went with plain old nail vinyls for today. We were busy prepping for Avery's 2nd birthday party this past weekend and I totally forgot to write up a post, lol.

So I used Glam Polish Utopian Paradise, which was two perfect coats, as per usual with Glam Polish, ugh. LOL.

Then I used some nail vinyls and slapped on GP I Know You Want Me! which was also perfect and that's annoying because guys.. I want all of the Glam Polishes. All of them. Wahhhh...

I smooshed my pointer finger because I forgot to take a picture when my nails were fresh and went to bed and woke up with a smooshed nail. Womp womp.

But this was really pretty and I enjoyed this manicure while I wore it!

The twinsies are taking August off, so be sure to leave extra comments on all of their posts this week and we will be back in September to resume the Twinsie Tuesday super fun times.

Twinsie Tuesday: Revist

Hey guys!

Nothing To Disclose

Today we are revisiting a theme that we either missedor simply wanted to redo. I went back a few months and picked a theme that was A) easy for me to do and B) was before I was a Twinsie :-) Any guesses??

Anyone? Anyone?



You might have guess HOLO and you would have guessed correctly, lol. I took the easy way out and am showing you a few Glam Polishes. Glam Polish is one of my favorite indies as of late; their holos are fantastic, the formulas are just about perfect, and I just love them super hardcore.

Nicest Kids In Town is a beautiful emerald green holo. This was 2 perfect coats and believe me that this is much more stunning in person. The holo was just like... bam. Gorgeous.

Go check out the rest of the twinsies to see what they are revisiting!
