Blue Monday, Loreal Notting Hill Blues

Hi Everyone,

It's Blue Monday and I have on a beauty from the Loreal Ltd. London Fall Collection.  I picked up Notting Hill Blues.  It's a gorgeous medium blue with shimmer.  It's very saturated only needing 2 coats.

The 1999 British romantic comedy movie Notting Hill, starring Hugh Grant and Julia Roberts still encourages visitors to the Notting Hill area every week looking for the now famous locations around  Portobello Road Market.
 
 
 
Did you pick up Notting Hill Blues or any others in this collection?  
 
P.S.  Those of you that have Captcha on your blogs for some reason I'm not able to comment.  It won't take anything that I type in even though it's correct.  I emailed them about it, hopefully it's corrected soon. 





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

Prosperity Meets Purple Haze

Good Friday Morning,

After wearing Illamasqua Prosperity from the Rubber Brights Collection I paired it up with Indie Polish All That Glitters Purple Haze.

Purple Haze, Prosperity

 I purchased All That Glitter Purple Haze awhile back and was just itching to wear it.  Prosperity is a perfect match I just wish the shiny purple squares were more visible on my nails.

All That Glitters Purple Haze

It's chunky and packed well in a clear base then again it looks like a faint light jelly purple base.   I'm happy that the base didn't effect the white square glitters which remain crispy white.

It's so chunky that polishing it on was a pain but the dabbing motion worked wonders spreading out the glitters evenly.

Here it is with a coat of Gelous and Seche Vite Top Coat
 
 
Here you can see the shiny purple squares that's hidden on the nail.  Maybe next time I'll pair this glitter with a light grey creme so all the glitters can show up well.
 
 
  I'm loving my tips with this amazing purple polish and glitter combo♥♥♥
 
  



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

Throwback Thursdays: NATROBBINS Phantom

Savvy from Addicted To Polish decided to have a Throw Back Thursdays and I decided to join her.  Besides I have lots of oldies but goodies polishes that I have in my collection to share with you.  They are screaming to be used and I am excited!

The formula is so thin when I shake the bottle you can hear it. The first coat gave me bald spots I had to be patient and take my time with it.  The second coat was easier and the third coat was perfect.  It's a chocolate brown with a flash of violet shimmer.  It's unique, I don't have anything like it in my collection.  I mistakenly found it on ebay while searching for another shade by NATROBBINS.  Unfortunately, this brand is discontinued but it's still available on ebay or you may find it at a dusty.

Love the square bottle.  The brush size is standard.
