Pretty & Polished Spam!

Hey guys! How are you? I hope you have a great Sunday!

This week, I'm going to have some lovely indie polishes to share with you! Yay for indies :-) I have to say that my indie collection has grown quittteeee a bit lately! Whoops :-)

Pretty & Polished is one of the first indie brands I purchased, I believe. So far, I've collected several of the P&P polishes and I love all of them!

Today, I'm going to show you two, technically 3 of her polishes. Onto the photos!

First, Bubble Tea. If you don't know, Bubble Tea is a drink, usually made with tea, milk, sugar and black tapioca balls. It's delicious! (Except that I can never drink the tapioca balls because the texture makes me want to gag, but that's neither here nor there.)

ANYWAY, this polish looks like a delicious bubble tea! I used 3 coats here, no top coat.




Next is Tart. I don't know how it took me so long to acquire this polish because it's basically perfect! It was a little thin on the first coat, and I did move the glitter around a bit but on the 2nd and 3rd coats, it was perfect. 




Next is Heist, which is a gold flakie top coat. I layered this over Tart, which was not the best color choice. I'm definitely going to wear this again over a darker base. 






Do you have any P&P polishes? What are your favorites?

Talk to you soon!

Avon Week: Noir Emerald

Hey guys! Happy Friday! Does anyone have fun plans for this weekend? I'm going to a rally tomorrow for my jewelry business and then will be hanging around the rest of the afternoon and on Sunday. Yay, lol.

I'm sure you've noticed, but the polishes were all very easy to apply, had great formula's, and required almost no clean up. Looove!

Noir Emerald, with two coats and no top coat.

Avon Week: Absinthe

Hey guys! Happy Tuesday. I'm freezing! It's about 60 degrees today; I'm not ready for cold weather! Bring back the heat! I'm already typing incorrectly because my hands are cold, lol.

Day 2 of Avon Week is Absinthe, a celery green.  As I said before, great application and formula... no pooling, dragging, and almost no cleanup needed!

2 coats, no top coat.

Avon Week: Venus

Hey guys! Today was my first day back to work from vacation... I was not looking forward to it! I almost got back in bed after I got up to turn my alarm off! Whoops! LOL Anyway...

Welcome to Avon Week! I recently purchased 6 new Avon polishes and thought "why not have an Avon week!?"

I'm going to start with Avon Venus, a gold chromey/foily polish. I will say that all of these polishes were very easy to apply, and almost no cleanup was needed. Love it!

2 coats, no top coat.
