Indigo Bananas Maui Wowee goes Neon!

Hi Guys!

Today I want to show off a super gorgeous polish, Indigo Bananas Maui Wowee. Maui Wowee is an ice blue purple duo-chrome, with a bit of a foil like finish and a linear holo in the sun.  I am a bit pressed for time today, since my favourite person is still here, so let's get right to it!

As you can see, I managed to capture a bit of the holo in my lightbox, and although this isn't a blinding in your face holo, it is stronger in person. There is so much going on in this polish, it is hard to narrow down what I love best. I think I would have to say the duo-chrome, which is super surprising, since I am much more of a holo addict then a duo-chrome addict. This polish applies really nicely,  without any dragging issues, although I will mention, wait a bit in between coats, or you will run the risk of dragging. This was 3 thin coats. It was opaque at 2, but I added a third for colour depth. 

To get this look, I started with a base of Indigo Bananas Maui Wowee on my thumb (not shown) middle and pinky fingers, and a base of Rica Whiteout on my pointer and ring fingers. Once that was dry, I stamped using Fun Plate 03 in Mentality Deuce, and then again stamping over that image with Fun Plate 03 in Mundo De Unas 29 Neon Pink. The studs came from a stud wheel of neon studs off eBay. 

I know, it is September, and that means fall colours, but as you can see, I am not quite ready to let go of summer. I think I will have to get in a few more neon-eque manis, before I finally submit to fall. Speaking of the end of summer, I hope everyone who celebrates Labour Day had an awesome weekend! I relaxed mostly, and soaked up the last official weekend of summer with some swimming and a bbq. 

Alright guys and gals, I think that mostly covers it for today. My favourite person is still here till the end of the week, and so I really should be getting back to playing hostess! I will have at least 1 more post this week, but I may be able to find some down time to squeeze in another! *fingers crossed!*  Till next time Kittens! <3

All Hearts for Bliss Polish Yvette

Hi Guys!

Happy Friday! Today, I want to show off a couple polishes, that I recently won in a giveaway on Instagram. If you follow me there, you know all about this! If you don't, well, you really should be! :P  Either way, I recently won a giveaway that Bliss Polish was having, and there was some super awesome polishes in there that I couldn't wait to try out! One of them being Bliss Polish Yvette. Which is a super creamy, beach sand coloured  nude, with a soft linear holo.

This was my first time trying a Bliss Polish, and let me just say, it certainly won't be my last. This was a dream to apply. It wasn't to thick, or to thin, it was simply perfect, and that colour..seriously...no words..! When I opened the package, and saw that super unique nude linear holo I knew it had to end up on my nails as soon as possible! It doesn't lean to yellow, or to pink, it seems to fall perfectly in the middle. I honestly think it would suit most skin tones. The holo is stronger in person, but still on the softer side,  however  it suits the polish and gives it a magical fairytale feel. There is just something so elegant about Yvette, and I am just head over heels in love it.

To get this look, I started with a base of Yvette on my pointer and ring fingers, a base of Island Girl Surfer Babe (another polish from the giveaway) on my middle finger and thumb (not shown), and a base of Indigo Bananas A Star to Sail By on my ring finger. Once that was dry, I stamped using Vivid Lacquer Plate VL009 in Mundo De Unas Purple. The studs are from Born Pretty Store.

There is so much for me to love about this look, that I am not even sure where to start. I  love the soft elegance of Yvette, and I love the sea foam green of Surfer Babe (which does leans less blue in person), and you seriously need to see the level of bling that A Star to Sail By has going on. It is a rose gold silver flakie polish, that is opaque in 3 thin coats. I am also love the purple hearts, and the studs pull it all together perfectly for me! 

Alright guys and gals, I think that covers it for today. My favourite person in the whole world flies in today, and  I am pretty excited to be spending the next week with him, although we still haven't decided what to do for the holiday yet! :P Speaking of holiday, does anyone have any awesome plans!? We need some ideas!! :P So let me know in the comments! Till next time Kittens! <3

piCture pOlish Badass is so Badass!

Evening All!!

Tonight I have the incredibly stunningly gorgeous piCture pOlish Badass. It is a collab shade with Sassy Shelly, from earlier this year. It a Bijou holo polish, and incredibly unique in my collection. 

This polish had previously been sitting in my untried's pile, and honestly, now that it is on my nails, I don't understand why I waited so long to wear it.  It has this depth to it, that has you spending a lot of your time looking at your nails, trying to catch different angles in the light. I really love the purple and blue micro glitters. They give this polish so much depth, and at certain angles, sometimes it even looks as if there are gold and green glitters in there.  It is also super opaque and I bet great for stamping. It was opaque at 1 coat, but I did a second out of habit. It is a bit thicker then other PP shades, but I am assuming that is because of all the gorgeous micro glitter, and it still applies great. 

I paired this with another one of my untried polishes, Indigo Bananas Wise Up Janet! It is a purple foil finish, with a linear holo. It is a bit sheer, on the first coat, but it builds up beautifully. I used 3 coats, in my pictures. It such an original colour in my collection, and I love that it not only has the holo awesome in the sun, but it also has a gorgeous foil effect indoors. 

To get this look, I stamped over Wise Up Janet using Cult Nails Nevermore, with MoYou London Hipster Plate 07. The studs are from a random eBay seller, that I picked up in a wheel with a bunch of different colours forever ago. It is all top coated with my fav top coat HK Girl. I really love how this looks. I adore the adorable little sparrows, and I think that Badass and Wise Up Janet go perfectly with each other. Especially in person, where the blue and purple micro glitter in Badass is a bit more apparent.

I think that covers it for one evening. I missed you guys this past week, although I had an amazing time with my favourite person, so it was worth the trade! :P We had a great time, and did some amazing things, and ate some even more amazing food. I know this isn't nail related, but if anyone is looking for an amazing recipe I highly recommend you check out these You won't regret it!
