Mermaids Dream


This polish is absolutely beautiful! It's called "Mermaid's Dream" by Deborah Lippmann. This polish is a pearly sea foam green with blue glitter.

I took several pictures of this polish because the more I walked around into different lights I saw how it gave it a different look. No matter what it is just beautiful and stunning to have on my fingers!

These picture was taken in my kithen in bright artificial light:

This was taken in indirect bright artificial kitchen lights:

This was taken in indirect sunlight while the sun was going down (sunset light):

Here is a picture of the bottle in indirect sunset light, this picture really shows off the beautiful glitters:

This was taken in the same indirect sunset light:

Butter London Manicure Essentials Haul

I needed a new set of their incredible base/top duo which includes “Nail Foundation” and “Hardwear”. This duo is pricey ($25 @ Nordstrom) but they are worth the money and go a long way. I also got their acetone free polish remover “Powder Room” to try out.

Polish Haul!


Top row: All from Essie, "Playdate", "Power Clutch", and a top coat for artificial nails called "Ridge Filler". Bottom row: "Rainbow" by China Glaze and "The Color To Watch" by OPI, "Pros and Bronze", and "Love Is A Racket" from the OPI Serena Williams collection.

I'm really excited for "Playdate" from Essie, I've seen it online a few times and love it! I also wanted to get a Bronze color to go with my metallics so the Serena Williams duo was a perfect pick for that. As far as my other picks, both "Rainbow" and "The Color To Watch" are pearly holographic colors, which are always beautiful.

If you are interested in me testing out or reviewing certain colors or brands for you, please contact me! Pin It

Smooth Sailing


"Smooth Sailing" by Essie, a beautiful purple-ish blue color with a pearl reflection. Originally I was going to use one of my Luxeffects along with this polish but it is so pretty on it's own that I left it alone.

Here is "Navigate Her" by Essie with some Daisy's on my thumb. This is a very creamy beautiful light green, perfect for spring!

p.s. I broke two of my nails on my left hand so excuse my short nails, waiting for them to grow back out! :) Pin It

Polish Haul!

Lately I have been on an Essie binge, I love their polish and they have been around since 1981 so they have a great formula and all their polish goes on nice and smooth. I have been so excited to get the Luxeffects collection and I can't wait to test them out and show you. I also picked up their base and top coats to try out as I just ran out of my Butter London Base and Top... So far so good!!

Here are the Essie Luxeffects, "Shine Of The Times", "Pure Pearlfection", "A Cut Above", "Set In Stones", and "As Gold As It Gets".

The top row is two top coats, "Good To Go" and "Matte About You", the base coat is, "Fill The Gap". Bottom row are a few colors I picked up, "Absolutely Shore", "Dive Bar", "Cocktail Bling" (in previous post), and "Borrowed and Blue". Pin It
