Pretty Serious Cosmetics One Year Birthday! Daphne's Birthday Party

Hey guys!

Today is Pretty Serious Cosmetics one year birthday! If you aren't familiar with this brand, go here to check out their website.

In celebration of PSCosmetics birthday, everyone who has the new Daphne's Birthday Party polish is encouraged to post their swatch of it today, so I'm sure that if you haven't already, you will be seeing a lot of Daphne's Birthday Party today :-)

So today, here is my manicure/swatch (and current NOTD) of Pretty Serious Daphne's Birthday Party!

Daphne's Birthday Party is a multicolored glitter explosion of red, gold, pink, blue, and green. I used 2 coats of Zoya Rocky.



So there you have it! I've been wearing this for 3 days and there is almost no tip wear, except where I tore a bit of my nail at work.

Isn't this a perfectly festive polish? Definitely the perfect birthday glitter!

Talk to you soon!

China Glaze Mimosa's Before Mani's

Hey guys!

Did you have a nice weekend? I did, it was pretty laid back, but those are my favorite kind :-) Now this week, I have goals to edit, upload, draft, and list posts and Etsy stuff. We'll see if it happens, lol. 


China Glaze Mimosa's Before Mani's is a coral with golden shimmer. Love it. So summery and fresh. It makes me want to be on vacation.

This was 2 perfect coats.



What do you think of colors like this? I personally love a coral for the summer, it's so pretty and simple!

Talk to you soon!

This is OPI From A To Zurich, a gorgeous wine colored creme. I used 3 thin coats here. 



 I added White Owl Lacquer A Little Danger to the middle and ring fingers. Full of gold, pink, and red glitters... and CIRCLE GLITTER!



Thennnnn I added Nicole by OPI Pick of the Glitter to the index and pinky finger. I found this guy at Target, and I've not really seen any swatches of it anywhere... but I also haven't looked for any. It's full of gold and turquoise hex glitter.

OPI I Saw... U Saw... We Saw... Warsaw with Gold Dots

Hey guys!

Oh my gosh, longest polish name ever, lol.

I Saw... U Saw.. We Saw... Warsaw is from the OPI Euro Centrale collection and holy moly look at that amazeballs blue! Gah!! I can't even. I love it.

This is 2 coats, no top coat. So shiny! This had a nice formula, no issues to report.



I added Pixi Gold Glimmer dots to the middle and ring fingers. Usually I would a dotting tool but I was feeling quite comfy on the couch and used the brush in the bottle, ha. Not too bad! 



Do you lots dotticures? I am kinda loving them a lot lately!

Talk to you soon!

A England Swatches

Hey guys! Happy... Thursday? I think? LOL

How's about some A England spam for you?? Okay!

First up, Dragon, a breathtaking green holo. I should say right off the bat that I didn't have sunlight for any of these so the holo is not as awesome in these photos as it really can be. But this was one glorious coat! Gah!!! 



 Princess Sabra is a beautiful gold holo. Again, one coat!


 Camelot is a one coater black creme. So so shiny! 

Finally, Lancelot is a blackened red. It pretty much looks black most of the time but I don't even care because it still has a perfect formula.




Talk to you soon!

Pink Wednesday with Zoya's!

Hey guys!

I have a couple of pink Zoya's for you today! First, Layla, a BRIGHT AS THE SUN pink creme. Trust me when I say that this is not even close to as pink as it looks in real life. YOWSERS!

I used 2 perfect Zoya coats. And my index finger is shiny because it was still wet because I totally dinged it. Yeah.




Next, an exclusive Zoya color to FabFitFun, which is an online newsletter and now a subscription box. This fuchsia color is their FFF color!

I used 2 coats for this baby.




Talk to you soon!

KBShimmer Swatches

Hey guys!

I have a few of the newest KBShimmer polishes to show you today. These are from her spring collection and of course, I bought all the polishes with circle glitters :-)

First up, Lottie Dottie. This is a white base with aqua/blue and pink circle glitters. I used 2 coats over white. I didn't have to fish around for any glitters, so yay! 



This is Lottie Dottie with KBShimmer Clearly On Top top coat. Ohhh shiny! 

Next, Get Clover It, a green jelly with blue and gold circle glitters.  It looks like delicious jelly money.

I used 3 thin coats, no top coat.




What do you think of these babies? I love them. and all polishes should have circle glitter. Fo' Sho'.

Talk to you soon!
