Throwback Thursdays...Autumn Scene

Hi Everyone,  Sorry I didn't post anything the last few days and it's not like I didn't try.   Have you ever had one of those day(s) that you couldn't pick a color or didn't have any ideas and when you finally had an idea it just didn't work out.  You know what I'm talking about.  I hate when this happens to me because for just a second...just a second  I wanted to quit blogging!  I can't let that happen because I have too many polishes to share with you guys. Lol!



Even though I live in sunny Florida I'm ready for autumn. Of course I have to look at pictures to see the beautiful autumn scenes of colored leaves.  Sally Hansens New Lengths Amber Beads Creme, it's a beautiful rusty brown with golden shimmer.  It applied wonderfully in 2 coats.☺

You can see the golden shimmer here 
 
I just had to mimic the autumn scene using the cling wrap technique.  I want to thank whomever discovered this method.  It was super easy to do and I will be doing it again.

I love the shimmer in the green
 
Items Used:  Base, SH NL Amber Beads Creme
Yellow: Zoya Creamy
Green: China Glaze Paper Chasing
Topcoat: Seche Vite
 
I'm so happy with my autumn scene mani, I was thinking about stamping some leaves over it.  Should I?  I bought SH NL Amber Beads Creme a few years ago at Dollar Tree.  It's still available on ebay.
 
 
 


 Until next time please have a great nail polish day. (✿◠‿◠)

OPI Pink Of Hearts 2012 Collection Swatches and Review

Hi Everyone,  I hope you had a blast of a weekend.  Monday has rolled around again.  I have the OPI Pink Of Hearts 2012 Collection to share with you.  This duo pack is designed to raise awareness and funds for breast cancer research and support.  I love the little bows on the bottle cap.  It would have been nice if OPI included decals with this set.

OPI Pink of Hearts 2012 Collection
 
I Think In Pink, it's a sheer jelly pink. The formula is thick and creamy. Even though it's sheer it's buildable and covered well in 3 coats.  I love this shade of pink it's dreamy and girly.

You Glitter Be Good To Me,  This glitter is so shiny and sparkly.  It's packed with small light pink hex and darker pink hex glitter in a clear base. Here I dabbed it on over I Think In Pink so you can see the contrast between both polishes.

This glitter is chunky but one coat of Seche Vite made it smooth to the touch.

Overall,  This is a very cute set.  Although I Think In Pink needed 3 coats it was not problematic.  You Glitter Be Good To Me is chunky so you may only need 2-3 coats alone.  I can't wait to do a jelly sandwich with this set.
 
 
 
Will you be picking up this collection?  Any Thoughts? Please leave your comments down below.

OPI So So Skullicious Mini Collection Swatches and Review

Hi Everyone,  I had a couple of broken nails so I had to chop them down to nubs.  Nubs are so hard for me to polish.  Oh well, I have the OPI So So Skullicious Mini Collection to show you.  I wish OPI put their names on these mini's.

Here are the swatches in skittles
OPI So So Skullicious Collection

From the top: Morning Glory, this black is so shiny and is a one coater!  I used 2 coats here.
A-Rose from the Dead, A very pretty bright pink sorta jell-ish consistency needed 3 coats for a smooth even finish.  hi, Pumpkin! A nice orange cream used 3 coats.  Candlelight, love the name (hint, hint) it's yellow flame, very pretty the formula was thin I had to use 3 coats to cover the bald spots.

Here are the decals, I chose the flower and the abstract design.

I added on the black dots to keep the flower from floating (as Robin Moses would say)

OPI So So Skullicious Collection


Overall, this is a really cute fun set.  Nothing you haven't seen.  Morning Glory has the best formula no problems and like I said it's a one coater.  The others gave me bald spots, applying 3 coats fixed them right up.  The decals were easy to apply just cut them out, dip in warm water, slide off, and apply. 

So So Skullicious will be available for a limited time beginning September 2012, at Professional Salons, including Beauty Brands, Beauty First, Chatters, Dillard’s, JCPenney, Pure Beauty, Regis, Trade Secret, and ULTA, for $12.50 ($14.95 CAN) suggested retail for each mini pack.
