Cupcake Polish Instant Re-Leaf and Plant Parenthood, In Bloom coll. swatches

Today I have two of the polishes from the Cupcake Polish In Bloom collection.

Both have a nice and strong holo effect in the sun, but it’s also visible in lower light settings.

They are very opaque in one coat, but are shown in two easy with a coat of Seche Vite.

Instant Re-Leaf:

Cupcake Polish Instant Re-Leaf is described as a creamy light green linear holographic polish, and that’s a good description, it has that spring green feel to it!

Plant Parenthood:

Cupcake Polish Plant Parenthood is described as a creamy periwinkle linear holographic polish. I agree, but I do find it rather muted and slightly dusty.

Do you like them, and do you have a favorite..?

Celestial Cosmetics July 2015 LE swatches

Celestial Cosmetics July LE is Nicki’s take on the July birthstone: Ruby. It’s a soft and pretty red based scattered holo with a generous amount of red and silver micro glitters. The application is easy and it is very opaque in one coat, but this is two with a coat of Seche Vite. Without a top coat it dries with a little texture

ARRRGHHH Blogger AGAIN messes with my pink colors, now making them less vivid...
Try to imagine it more vivid!

This is as the name suggests only available for a limited period, so go to Celestial Cosmetics to shop!

F.U.N Lacquer Distinct, 2015 Limited Edition swatches

F.U.N. Lacquer Distinct is one of the polishes from the 2015 Limited Edition collection released in June and it never will be restocked. It is described like this: “It’s a purple multicolour holographic base with sterling silver flakies and multichrome flakies.” I agree; it shifts between grey, purple and green, and it is super amazing in the sun where the holo really have my attention, but the flakies have a ball even in low light and other light settings, I loved wearing it. This is 3 easy coats with a coat of Seche Vite.

What do you think of this mysterious beauty..?

Did you get an of this collection before it was too late...?

Floral Summer Stargazing nail art

The base color is I Love Nail Polish/ILNP Summer Stargazing see swatches HERE, and on the two middle nails I painted random brush strokes with Cupcake Polish Elizabeth and Nail Pattern Boldness Charm. I painted the floral nail art with acrylic craft colors. Seche Vite is as always my trusted top coat.

Chanel Argent 61, Or 62, Cuivre 63 and Bronze 64, Le Vernis Lumière Coll. 2000 – Collaboration Saturday

In this Collaboration Saturday together with my friend Elena from PicturedTinsel, I have the Chanel Le Vernis Lumière Collection released in 2000: Argent 61, Or 62, Cuivre 63 and Bronze 64.

They came in long, slim 5 ml/0.15 FL OZ bottles.

I THINK they were meant to be used on their own as a sheer shimmer on the naked nail reflecting the metal that named each of them. But since my nails aren’t pretty with that kind of polishes I have chosen to show them as one finger swatches in one coat over my to go to one-coater black A England Camelot.

First 61 Argent (silver)

62 OR (gold):

63 Cuivre (copper)

- and finally 64 Bronze (bronze):

And finally a group photo:

Do you like them, and can you imagine how pretty they would be without black underwear?

Now lets see what Elena has for us today, shall we..?
