Bella Luna Cosmetics Swatches

Hey guys!

Nothing To Disclose

Today I have a new to me brand to show you, Bella Luna Cosmetics. I took advantage of a sale a few weeks back and picked up some pretties to try out. Samantha was kind enough to include two minis from her Bohemian Collection, which just released!

First, Aquamarine Queen, a pale pale blue with a shimmer that was not captured by this terrible photo. Seriously guys.... I don't know how to take photos on a real camera, lol! Yikes.

This was 3 coats and still a bit patchy after three coats.

April Showers is a holo topcoat. The holo doesn't show up terribly well over the pale blue but it is really pretty in person! And I always love a holo topcoat because.. HOLO. Get it? Like YOLO but with HOLO. OMG guys it's so late. This is a terrible idea, lmao.

Emerald Valleys is a slightly textured emerald green polish with some holo particles. This was two coats, no top coat.

Annndd with topcoat.

Gypsy is from the Bohemian collection. This is a magenta polish with loads of golden shimmer. 2 easy coats.

Sunset in Paradise is an orange jelly with gold shimmer. This was 3 coats.

You can purchase Bella Luna Cosmetics from her Etsy shop.

Today I have some Liquid Afterglow Lacquer polishes to share with you! Jessica is a fellow Michigander and she was kind enough to bring my order to the Michigan Nail Girls meet up a few weeks back!

First, Butterfly Gardens is a milky based jelly with neon assorted glitters. Do I even need to say that the circle glitters are my favorite? Come on, son. You know it. This was 3 coats.

Cloud 9 is a pale blue crelly base with small purple, blue, green, and holo glitters. This was 2 coats.

SinfulColors Bombay Nights Appliques

Hey guys!

Press Sample

SinfulColors has released some new nail stickers and I have one of the designs to share with you!

The packaging says "Bombay Nights Appliques Foiled Again" so I'm not sure if the name is Foiled Again or Bombay Nights but regardless.... this is what they look like, lol.

I applied my stickers over OPI's You're So Outta Lime. There are several sizes to choose from and three rows of stickers. So 3 of each size sticker. Once you have found the size that fits your nail, simply fold the sticker over the end of the nail and file off the extra.

These looked much better in person, the wrinkles were not as obvious! That was user error on my part, whoops!

You can purchase SinfulColors nail stickers at mass retailers nationwide and be sure to follow SinfulColors on all of their social media:

butter London Shine Out Loud Review + Giveaway!

Hey guys!

Press Sample

I was recently offered the chance to try some of butter London's newer cosmetic products and I was stoked to discover that they kindly sent doubles of everything so you know what that means.... yeeahhhhh, a giveaway! Stay tuned to the end ;-)

The Wink Eye Pencil in Union Jack Black is a black kohl eyeliner. It is VERY creamy and glides on like a puff of air. That makes no sense but it really does glide on like a dream. I did have a bit of transfer even though I wore an eye shadow primer.

Bloody Brilliant Lip Crayon in Ladybird is "an all in one formula of highly pigmented colour and intense shine". I LOVE that there is a built in sharpener in the cap! So bloody convenient. Bahaha, get it? I am hilarious. And GUYS! THIS SMELLS LIKE CHOCOLATE MINT. I am dead serious. It's divine.

Iconolast Mega Volume Lacquer Mascara claims a "300% increase in volume with one coat, boosting lashes with the double feature, molded mascara brush". I am always confused by these ball ends on the brush. BUT I did like this mascara, it applied nicely, the formula wasn't too dry or too wet. I applied one coat.

Here's mah whole face: I'm warning you, I'm only wearing the products I am reviewing!

Ladybird is a tomato red polish with a crelly like formula. I used 2 coats and it covered nicely and have an easy formula.

Twinsie Tuesday: Inspired By A Song

Hey guys!

Nothing To Disclose Press Sample

For Twinsie Tuesday, we are sharing manicures inspired by a song. People... I am not good at this. I don't think I've ever heard a song and thought about how such and such nail polish would be a great companion to the song. So yeah. I was like wuttttt.... Oh! Nail Polish with song names! That's what I'll do.

I thought I owned OPI's Love. Angel. Music. Baby. but alas... it is nowhere to be found. So since I have to use the same brand for my manicures (guys, it's literally not even normal. I will not do a manicure with different brands.....) I grabbed OPI's You're So Outta Lime since it was an untried. This was 3 coats. The formula was okay, it was a bit thin for my liking.

Then, I slapped on some nail stickers from SinfulColors because in all honesty, I was killing two birds with one stone here. Shh, don't tell. ANYWAY.... then I used OPI's Super Bass shatter because I really kind of want to bring shatter back. Clearly, the shatter does not work over nail stickers, lolol!!

And yeah, my new candy (wuttt??) fancy camera really depicts how poorly I paint my nails, LOL! I PROMISE they look much better in person!!!

Go check out the other twinsies who probably have much better song manicures than I do....
