Frenzy Polish Gamer Girl Polishes

Hey guys!

Nothing To Disclose

I have 3 polishes from the Frenzy Polish Gamer Girls collection to share with you today. These are my first Frenzy Polishes and I mean, can we just look at the little fox on the label?? I die of cuteness.

Catching Fire Flies is a dark green with green, gold, blue assorted hexes and glitters. This is a really beautiful color, I used two coats that were very easy to apply. It's packed with glitter but not so much that it looks clumpy on the nail. Love it! It does dry a bit matte so I added topcoat.



Blue Screen of Death is a cobalt blue glow in the dark glitter polish. I didn't actually realize this was GITD until I had already removed it so I don't have a GITD picture to share with you, lol. Whoops. I did 3 coats but if I had been more careful and used thicker coats, this would have been opaque in two.


/ragequit is a really interesting color, it's a blackened maroon color with blue and red and maybe green flakies. This was 2 coats plus topcoat.

So these are awesome and I would like more Frenzy Polishes. Yeah. Have you tried this brand before? What are your favorite Frenzy polishes?

Talk to you soon!

Virago Varnish Swatches

Hey guys!

Nothing To Disclose

This entire post is to be blamed on JessFace90 on YouTube. I recently discovered her channel (and also discovered that she's from Michigan!) and I have a lot of purchases to blame on her beautiful swatches.

Virago Varnish is a brand that I've been following for a while but hadn't taken the plunge to purchase yet and wow, why did I wait so long??

Rhapsody is a blue micro glitter with holo mixed throughout. Oh. My. Gosh. This is so gorgeous. I originally set out to swatch all 5 of these polishes at once and had to stop after each one because they were too pretty to remove! This was 2 coats and 2 coats of topcoat.


Seduction is basically just..... ab;kajdfhdaklfgflkbAJDFadfkhsdgadg gorgeous. This was two coats and two coats of topcoat. Like... I can't even. 

Stellar is a blue and purple micro holographic glitter in a clear base. Ughhhhh I don't think pictures even do these justice, this was gorgeous. Allllmost opaque in two coats but the glitters are so holographic and reflective that the tiny bit of nail that was visible was not noticeable, so I added a topcoat and called it good.

Glamorous is a black jelly base with holographic glitters. Guys. Like... just go buy these. They are so incredibly gorgeous. I can't even explain it, lol. This was two coats with topcoat.

So yeah. These are amazing. I want all of the colors in the world to be made into this formula of nail polish because it's stunning.

Talk to you soon!

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!

Makeup Monday: Dior Addict Lip Glow - Review!

Hey guys!

Press Sample Affiliate Link

Today I have a review of the Dior Addict Lip Glow! This is a little bit interesting: this balm claims to enhance and beautify the natural color of your lips. As the color reacts to the unique chemistry of your lips, it will look different on every skin tone. These types of products fascinate me! I was so excited to try it out and see how it would look on me!


I love the packaging, it's very sleek and sturdy.


The product itself is a sheer pink color but applies as a clear balm. It smells DELIGHTFUL, like vanilla mint!


This is a picture of my bare lips. I was trying not to smile to not change the color of my lips so you get some RBF instead, lol!

This is the balm on my lips, immediately after application:


This is the balm on my lips after about 10 minutes. I wasn't sure how long it would take to see any difference in color so that's why I waited about 10 minutes.


As you can see, it didn't change much. However, it's still a nice balm to wear; it feels moisturizing. I think this is perfect for throwing in your purse and slapping on whenever you need a little bit of refreshment on your lips! Also... the smell. It smells lovely. Vanilla Minty goodness!

Stardust Polish Week: Lovely Lilac, Blue Skies, and Gnome Made

Hey guys!

Nothing To Disclose

As we come to the final day of our little Stardust Polish Week, I'd like to ask if you enjoyed this? Is there a particular brand that you would like to see featured for the week? It doesn't have to be an indie, but if you have one in mind, please let me know and I'll see if I can accommodate that request :-)

Today, I am bringing you polishes that are sadly no longer available from Stardust Polish. Sorry to do that to you but I had to show you these beautiful babies!

Lovely Lilac is a beautiful lilac holo. The holo in this is not very strong, it's more of a glitter but the color is just beautiful. I did two thin coats with topcoat.

Gnome Made is one half of the Gnome Box that Drema and Rica from Just Rica release monthly. This is a medium blue jelly with pastel blue, green, and purple circle glitters and some green hexes. 3 coats plus a top coat.

Blue Skies is one of my all time favorite Stardust Polishes. It's a gorgeous tealish, aqua-ish holo, it has a perfect formula, and I mean.. LOOK AT THE COLOR! The first picture is without top coat, the second is with topcoat. 


So I hope that you guys enjoyed this Feature Week! Like I mentioned above, if you have a brand or feature that you would like to suggest, please let me know!

Stardust Polish Week: Goldilocks Zone & Peach Blossom

Hey guys!

Nothing To Disclose

Stardust Polish Week continues with two more beauties from Drema.

Goldilocks Zone is a deep gold linear holo. This was perfect in two coats and had a really nice formula. I really love this color, it's so rich and cozy!


Peach Blossom is a peach linear holo. This was opaque in two coats which was really surprising for such a light color. Very pretty! The holo effect isn't as strong in this polish but it is still a really lovely color.

Stardust Polish Week! Shipwrecked, Plundered Treasure, Stormy Seas

Hey guys!

Nothing To Disclose

Welcome to Stardust Polish week!! I decided while I was swatching last week to throw in a week of some of my favorite brands every now and then. Hopefully you will enjoy Stardust Polish Week! (Twinsie Tuesdays will continue as whatever brand I had already used for the prompt).

Shipwrecked is a medium tan linear holo with gold shimmer. This was opaque in two coats and I did not add topcoat.



Plundered Treasure is a light teal crelly with gold glitter. This was 3 coats plus topcoat. I love the teal and gold combination in this polish, so pretty.


Stormy Seas is a dark blueish grayish jelly with blue and green micro glitter. This is a jelly so it will be sheer on the first few coats. Next time, I will layer it over a darker color just to save some steps. I used about 3 and a half coats here, plus top coat.
