Black Dahlia Lacquer ~ Olaf's Snow Flowers

Hey everyone!! Tonight I have another Black Dahlia Lacquer to show you!! I was in touch with Deanna the other day and i got the names of the polishes!! This one is called Olaf's Snowflowers.  It is a white polish totally jam packed with silver and gold holo glitters in different shapes and sizes. This is supposed to be a winter polish but i would wear this every day if i could!! I only got a mini and its 3/4 gona already because i love it that much!! All of my pics are 3 thin coats and top coat. Even though this polish has a mass amount of glitter it still applied pretty smoothly. All the glitters layed flat and no holo was lost in the mix!! It also dried quickly! I really need to get this in a full sized and then a back up!! Hope you all like it just as much as i do!! :)

Oh ya!! The heart stud came in a stud wheel i received from a nail mail swap :) 

Blurry to show the holo!! I swatched this 4 times and still couldnt catch the look of how holo this really is!! I guess you just need to buy it and see for yourself ;)

Black Dahlia Lacquer ~ Midnight Morning Glory

Hello again!! Lately I have run into another puddle of luck! I won my first ever nail art contest :) I was the intermediate winner with my stars and stripes mani! Here is the entry picture:

I am so excited still that I won! I definitely will have a post about that another time but speaking of luck, I also won 2 mini polishes from Black Dahlia Lacquer. The Duo behind this brand is mother, Deanna, and daughter, Aubrey! They have not even launched yet and the polishes don't even have names!! * now they have names!! And this one is Midnight Morning Glory! Midnight Morning Glory is a sapphire blue extreme holo. It is amazing! My birthday is in September and my birthstone is sapphire so I can assure you this will be on for my 30th!! Ugh... 30... at least my nails will look fabulous :) I will warn you now that there are about 30 pics from this polish! I couldn't help it! I always have a hard time capturing holo but this baby was not shy at all!! #1 has become, well, my #1 lol! Lets start with the photos from my kitchen with no light but day light!

Isn't she a stunner?!?!  On to the direct sunlight pics!!

And now for the macros!! Bottle shots:

Nail shots:

I would totally recommend keeping an eye out for this new indie brand. Follow them here on instagram, and here on facebook! All of these pics were 2 easy peasy coats with top coat. Just wait until you see the others I received! The ladies from BDL sent me 4 minis because they didn't have one that I had requested. I think I may be glad they didn't because the next polish is super unique and in my opinion a super must have!! Wait!! Did I say that they are 5 free and vegan friendly?!?! WOW :) Stay tuned :)

Fresh Paint ~ Guava

Hello fellow polish lovers!! Feels like forever since i have blogged. Just haven't had the motivation i guess!  I also havent had much to blog about!! But that will change very soon. I have a brush review and a cuticle oil review coming up!! I recently found out that the store 5 Below has polishes based off of the movie Frozen. Now, if any of you have kids(especially girls) you know just how huge this movie is!! So when my husband said he was going right by the store i asked if he could pick up a set for each of the girls. They are put away for now as presents and i have t gotten my own set to review yet but im sure they will be coming lol. Anyways, my husband also came back with this amazing polish! It is from the brand Fresh Paint and it is called Guava. What an awesome neon!! I used it for 3 manicures in a row and didnt even realize it because i love it that much!! Its formula is just amazing for a neon polish. I had no streaking and a very smooth finish after 2 coats. It does NOT dry completely matte. More of a waxy finish. For these pictures i am using top coat. I also compared it to the ever so popular China Glaze Flip Flop Fantasy. It was a little more orange toned than FFF but really close. FFF has a very picky formula though that i would rather not deal with. I used 3 normal coats on my middle finger in the last few pics. Also using top coat. Check it out and leave a comment!! I would love to know what you think!! Guava alone.

Guava and CG FFF

Overall, i would say that for the price and formula the fresh paint polish is way better!! Hurry and go get yours!!

Sally Hansen ~ Pacific Blue comparison

Hey my fellow polish lovers!! So there is a huge deal about this reformulation of Sally Hansens Pacific Blue #420. As soon as I heard about it i knew i wanted to grab an original before they were gone. I mentioned it to my husband while swatching and the next day he came home with a huge smile! He says," i grabbed you the last pacific blue they had." He put his hand in his pocket and pulled out the new, darker pacific blue. He must have seen the "ugh" look on my face because he immediately asked if he should return it. I figured it would be good to hold onto for comparison purposes. And with all the up roar i figured todays the day! First i compared it to China Glaze's Frostbite. They are very similar. Except for the fact that the new Sally hansen is a jelly polish. Check it out. I did Frostbite on my pinkie and middle fingers, and the new Pacific Blue on my ring and pointer. 3 coats each with topcoat. 

Here is the original Pacific Blue alone. 2 coats no topcoat!!

And lastly this is both the new and old Pacific Blue! The new on my ring finger and the old on the rest. 

Final thoughts: i didnt like the formula on the new one at all. Its pretty but not anywhere near as stand out as the original!! If you can get your hand on the old one before its gone for good!!!!
