Neons For Life!

Hello friends :) Lately I feel like I just cant get enough neon! Neons will always be my favorite; but lately I haven’t really even looked at anything but my neons. I decided I wanted to share a few of my favorites with you! This will be picture heavy because I did different lighting and finishes. Let’s get right to it!
The first polish is Polish Addict Nail Color Candy Pop. This is the crelly version that I just won in a Random Act of Kindness giveaway! This polish is perfectly me. Literally Jenn in a bottle. for this swatch i used 3 thin and flawless coats plus topcoat. I cannot believe that I found a glitter packed polish that I really like!! Really, this is not neon. but it is bright and new so I wanted to share :)

Next one is a prototype polish from Drip Drop Nail Paint. It is number 1008. This is another amazing crelly and it does have neon glitter in it. Again for my swatch I used three thin coats and top coat. I also have a few more of Jessica's prototypes. She makes great polish so go check her out! And the label is one of the cutest thing I have seen from any indie polish!

Next up is Cameo Colours Lacquers Hex-Sea And I Know It. This is such a gorgeous polish with so much depth! Its a bold blue jelly polish filled with, duh, hexes!!! Awesome neon ones :) This one I matted for a few pics so you could see the layers of glitter better. Most definitely a must have!! 

BLACKLIGHT GLOW SHOT!!!

The last one I want to show you is Honey Bunny Lacquer A Little Bitter. I had the hardest time finding a polish in my collection that would show off this glitter topper best. I ended up using a dark grey and an off white. i actually really loved the results of both. There are a ton of fun macros for this because everywhere I looked there were different glitters! Triangles, hearts and even the tiniest micro glitters. If you enjoy bright glitter in tons of shapes and sizes this is for you!! Take a look. 

So, which is your favorite??

MTL Creations ~ Honey Dew Cuticle Oil

Hi everyone!! This post has been ready for some time. I just seem to have the worst luck with any type of technology :( I lost the pics I had so I took the closest ones to the start and finish of my 1 week using MTLCreations Honey Dew Cuticle Oil. Thankfully my husband has been a huge help at troubleshooting and I at least have these pics lol! Until I received this oil from Cherise, I had been using Bliss Kiss Simply Pure Hydrating oil, along with random lotions/creams that were nearby. Once I started using this I used ONLY this for 1 week. Let me start by giving you an idea of how my cuticles usually are, DRY!!!! My daily fluid intake is usually 3 cups of coffee. That's it lol. Besides that I suffer from OCD so I hand wash countless times a day. I would say that 20-25 is accurate for a calm day. That means I need a heavy duty oil!! This oil is very supple! It has a thickness to it so it didn't drip all over the place. It absorbs really fast though so no worries there! It doesn't soak in and disappear. It softens the skin and keeps that silky feeling for quite some time before needing to reapply.The scent that came for me was Honey Dew, a very subtle smell that is crisp and lasts. I even smelled it still after washing my hands. Barely, but it was there. This oil worked great for me. Now I use it just as much as my bliss kiss!! I would totally recommend this oil for nice soft cuticles! Cherise has awesome polish and sugar scrubs and hand crocheted items available in her shop so please go check her out and keep her in mind when thinking about holiday shopping!!! She has thermals coming out that look super amazing!! Stay tuned :)       Day 1:

My True Love Creations ~ Fall Collection

Hey ladies! How’s it going this Tuesday night? Hopefully good since it was really warm today! I live in CT so around here it was nice lol! Anyway, I got more polish to swatch from Cherise, owner and creator of My True Love Creations!! Sometimes she throws in a full sized polish which is super sweet to do considering its sent for swatching. :) She also sent a cuticle oil which I will be reviewing in another post after I use it a few more days! I even got my husband involved haha!! Check back to see how… On to the polish!!! I usually don’t do this but I will be giving a review of all the polishes then I’ll post the pics. I am doing it this way because besides the color, the polishes were all pretty much the same. The names of the polishes are Once In a Blue Moon, Apple Crush, and Foresta Lumina. There was also a gold glitter topper called Star Dust. The first 3 polishes are all holographic jellies!! I used 3 thin coats for each swatch and no topcoat. The formula, for jelly polish, was pretty smooth. The first coat is always a little tricky, but it built up and evened out beautifully by the third coat! The polish is full of scattered holo. What I really loved about it was that it wasn’t a super strong holo effect. In my opinion, the strong holo rainbow sometimes takes away from the color of the base polish. Now the glitter. This is something everyone should own!! It’s tiny glitters so it looks very feminine over anything! It could totally be built up if layered thinly or applied with a makeup sponge. I just love this so much! I’m sure you have heard me say before that I’m not a huge fan of glitter. This is my kind of glitter! I could wear this often. It’s not chunky and/or blingy. Here, I wore it over Loyal Made by Pure Nail Lacquer. Perfection :) Lets check these babies out!!!

Hope you enjoyed these as much as I do!! They are available now so go grab your favorites (or all)!!

Sinful Colors ~ Starry Night & Rain Rubber

 Happy Saturday night ladies!! I am sitting at home bringing this post to you! Last night my husband came home from work super early and brought me home a few polishes. He grabbed me 2 Sinful Colors, Starry Night and Rain Rubber. For me, SC is always a reliable brand at a wonderful price! Not to mention how easy they are to find. My SC collection is now well over 100!! My husband always pays attention to small polish talk and oohs and ahhs as I surf through blogs and social media. So when I mentioned I needed Starry Night, he took note! He grabbed me Rain Rubber because I may have a slight obsession with texture. So, SN was an upset with the formula. It is a black cream polish with tiny holo glitters, micro pink metallic glitter, and gold holo shards. Beautiful but very thick and very streaky. I added some thinner and it helped a tiny bit but it was still not nice to work with. This is 3 thick coats with topcoat. Next time I will try one coat over black.  RR, on the other hand, was a dream to use! Two easy peasy coats with a quick dry time. The texture in this is barely noticeable compared to other SC textured polishes. It is almost identical to the texture of a rubberized joystick on a game controller. Its definitely unique but I love it!! For this mani I used both polishes together and matched it with a few blue heart studs. Check it out and enjoy!! :)

Black Dahlia Lacquer ~Blue-Green Zinnia

**I was recently emailed by the owner of BDL and she informed me that when she gave me names she forgot a key word for this polish!! It is Called Blue-Green Zinnia!!makes more sence huh!? ok, continue:)

Hello ladies :)  Today I have for you another amazing polish from Black Dahlia Lacquer. The name of this one is Blue-Green Zinnia. This actually kind of confuses me because it’s a blue polish. It is supposed to be a “subtle green holo”. I tried all kinds of lighting and it was still a light blue. So for me, I just looked at it as a gorgeous blue polish :). It applied smooth and took 3 coats to be solid on the nail. This polish is full of turquoise micro shimmer flecks and the most subtle holo dust that lightly glints in the sun. I really love these polishes so far!! Such great quality and different glitter mixes than I have seen anywhere! Check out this one I did with tiny blue bow gems! There are a lot of pics because like I said I tried lots of lighting. Enjoy friends :)

Birthday Update!

Hello friends!! I hope everyone’s holiday weekend was as good as mine was!! I will make this short but I have to tell you what my husband did! He took a week off of work and booked us 2 nights at our favorite family vacation cabins in New Hampshire! I am from Connecticut and it’s usually about a 3-4 hour trip, but to throw me off he took me the 6 hour scenic route. When we got to the cabin he finally told me we were there for 2 nights and he packed for me and everything. He also told me that he had planned this and taken a week off months ago! Like June!! There were happy birthday balloons and even a cake with candles when we walked in <3 I cannot express enough how awesome and memorable my husband made my 30th birthday!! Oh! Then, the day after we got back, he brought me to pick up a new kitten. He is 6 weeks old and all black. Perfect for me since I am a holloween freak  We named him Ash after Bruce Campbell’s character in Evil Dead. The original!!!! Anywho, up next is a post I have put on the back burner for far too long!! Thanks for reading this snipit into my life 
