Jessica Spicy Dream Collection Fall 2012, Swatches and Review


Hi Guys,  Hope you are doing well. I have Jessica Spicy Dream Collection to show you.   It contains lots of browns and reds that are great to wear during this season.

Jessica Spicy Dream Collection

See single swatches after the jump...


                                               Jessica Brown Sugar
Brown Sugar, a chocolate brown with silver shimmer.  The shimmer is hidden in the shade.  The formula is great the polish spread out evenly and I used two coats. 
 
 
Jessica Crimson Tattoo
Crimson Tattoo, a vampy oxblood red jelly. First coat was patchy the second coat evened it out. It has a blacken appearance. Nice formula.  
 
 
Jessica Champagne Bubbles
Champagne Bubbles,  the name fits well!  It's hard to describe a champagne color with orange, gold and silver a foil metallic finish.  For these photos I used three coats it did cover well with two.  
 
 
Jessica Gingersnap
Gingersnap, this polish is gorgeous! Brown, green and reddish duochrome foil finish.  A great formula I used three coats. 
 
 
Jessica Pumpkin Delight  
Pumpkin Delight,  another duochrome color shift foil finish.  Copper red, and gold..it's marvelous!  Used three coats. 
 
 
Jessica Cinnamon Kiss
Cinnamon Kiss,  I have been going crazy over shades like this.  It's similar to OPI German-icure a blacken red shimmer it's rich looking.  A great formula I used two coats.
 
 
This is a great collection,  If you like browns and reds you need this collection.  The collection can be purchased at Jessicacosmetics.com

NFU OH 52 and Poison Ivy

Hi Guys,  After admiring Wet n Wild Poison Ivy for a few hours I was ready to layer it with something.  I decided to pull out my NFU OH 52 and boy I'm glad I did.  If you don't own any NFU OH's you are missing out.  If you get one I say you need NFU OH 52. 


I love love NFU OH bottles they are soooo...lady like.  I layered on one coat.  You can't see it on my nails but the base is a purple shimmer.  It also has emerald green shimmer with green flakies.  The colors shifts from green to blue.  Amazing formula!  Can I paint the whole town with this? *-*
 
 
I purchased my NFU OH's from fabuloustreet.com
Also they can be purchased at nailpolishcanada.com and of course nfuoh.com 







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

30 Days Of Purple Day 1: CG Purplexed

Debbie's blog "The Crumpet"  is doing a 30 days of purple for the month of November.  I am a purple lover and I decided to join her.  It's not a challenge persa because anything goes just as long as it's purple.   I'll see how long I can keep up I'll even incorporate some nail art on some days.  I'm excited to show you all the lovely purples that I have in my stash. 


Cover Girl Perplexed

This post can also be a "Throwback Thursdays" post featuring Cover Girl Purplexed.  It is an oldie but goodie in my book.  A lovely purple duochrome that shifts from green to an amber gold.  I'm not to good at taking pictures in the sun (any suggestions?) and the sun wasn't quite bright enough to show off all the colors.  I'm sorry my pictures aren't very good.

The formula was thin but not problematic as far as application.  It built up nicely for me with 3 coats.
 
Ah! see the colors of green and amber

I'm loving this purple duochrome from Cover Girl.  I believe I purchased it at Dollar Tree awhile ago.  Cover Girl decided to make polishes again I saw their new collection at my local Walgreens, but they aren't as lovely as their older ones just your basic creme colors and some shimmers.
 
 
Are you a purple lover?  Come and join us on this purple spree for the month of November.
 




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

Teal Tuesdays...Revlon Top Speed *Ocean*

Hi Guys,

Missy from Gnarly Nails has started Teal Tuesdays.   If you want come and join in on the fun and also there is a Facebook Page for Teal Tuesdays.

Today is the first day for Teal Tuesdays for me.  Yay, I'm excited because I love the color Teal.  Looking through my stash trying to find a teal that I haven't swatched.  I came across Revlon Top Speed Ocean.  I love the color it has a slight duochromey look to it from the bottle and on the nails in  the shade.  Colors switching from green to blue.  As far as the formula goes not so good.  I know it's disappointing because it's so beautiful.  Maybe it was user error.  I got lots of bubbles and of course macro makes it look worse. Lol!  Next time I'm going to apply really thin coats and make sure it dries thoroughly between coats.

Used 2 coats


Ocean is a Teal Shimmer Foil
