Swatches: My-Stash- I'm Baroque & Jibber Jabber

Happy Mani Monday ladies!!!! I hope you all had a fabulous weekend! I spent the weekend riding around the Bluegrass state and watching some tele with the Hubbs. We took a 300 mile ride in a huge circle and got to go through a few cities I've never been though. :-) It was nice to get out of the house!!! :-) We stopped a Flea Market and I found this darling Mustache ring which I will use with  following My-Stash swatches! 

************************
Today I have some swatches for My-Stash Lacquer! You know how much I love Danielle and her beautiful creations!!! 

First up is Jibber Jabber! This is a glitter packed polish with white rectangles, black round glitter, blue, yellow, purple and holographic hexes, I'm sure there's something I'm missing in there!!! 

Application is flawless, as standard with her polishes! I paired this polish overtop a pink and blue gradient! 


The next polish is probably my favorite! In fact I will be ordering a full size bottle for fall!!!!! It's too stunning to not have a full size!!!! It has a blue shimmer that is just so dreamy and reminds me of fairies, or gypsies! It's going to be the PERFECT fall shade!!!!!!!!! My pictures could not capture this polish! TRUST ME, you need it in your life!!!!! 

I'm Baroque is a gorgeous glitter combo with black, pink coppery mini glitters, and blue and what appears to be orange irridescent flakies! OMG!!!!!!! This polish looks like a galaxy in your nail!!!! 

Application was a little thick, but I can totally deal with it and has NO problems with applying!!! This is a must have polish!!! At $6.25 a bottle, this beauty is a steal!!!!! 



 A huge thank you to Danielle with My-Stash Lacquer for sending me these beauties to swatch!!! 

All of her polishes are gorgeous! They have a beautiful application and apply flawlessly! Her polishes are true beauties! I would definitely recommend getting your hands on them! Her polishes are $6.25 with very reasonable shipping!!!!

Review: Shimmer Polish

Good evening beauties! I hope you are all doing well and have had a beautiful week! :) I have been so busy and so unmotivated as of late! I am blaming it on this HOT Kentucky weather! :D 

Today I have a very large post for you so I am going to get started! It's so large and so full of beautiful bottle shots that I decided to break it down into 2 reviews of 6 as I have a total of 12 beautiful glitter bombs to share with you! 

I have been drooling over Shimmer Polish for quite some time!!!!  I was fortunate to receive these polishes from Cindy at Shimmer Polish. I have 6 beauties in this swatchfest which are all named after her family and friends! 

********************************
The first polish is Celine. She applies like a beauty! Celine is a red glitter bomb in a red jelly base with gold holographic sparkles! 

This polish surprised me! When I put it on my nails I was INSTANTLY in love! I applied 3 even coats and 1 coat of Seche Vite as a topper! 





The next beautiful polish is one of my favorites! Cleo is a beautiful fuchsia jelly with purple, pink and teal glitters. It almost seems to have somewhat of a duo-chrome finish to it! 

This polish has to be my second favorite out of the lot! It's so beautiful and sparkly! I am truly in love with this polish! I applied 3 even coats and 1 coat of Seche Vite. 






Julie is a true glitter bomb and a Birthday Party in a bottle! There is a Rainbow mix of glitters that together would look great paired with any other polish or on it's own! 

This Polish is one that will not collect dust in my collection! I  could see wearing this polish on a girls night out, to a birthday party, or even to a Mardi Gras party!!! For the pictures I applied 3 coats of polish and one coat of Seche Vite. 







Then we have Sarah!!!! She is a teal blue/green glitter bomb with purple and it looks like silver glitter mix! 

Sarah is probably my #1 FAVORITE polish in this round! She is TRULY stunning and mermaid like! I cannot say enough good things! This polish applied evenly in 3 coats, and I applied 1 coat of Seche Vite. 





Vicki is a beautiful pink and silver polish topper. 

This polish is so dainty! I applied two even coats smoothly over OPI "I Theodora you". 

This from Shimmer Polish's description: 
Vicki is a wonderful mother and survivor of breast cancer, this polish is made to encourage and support the fight against this disease!

*Donations will be made to support Breast Cancer Research!








Nichole, Nichole, Nichole! This polish is a gorgeous patriotic blend of silver, blue, and red glitters! 

This polish is near and dear to my heart! My husband and I were married on the 4th of July, so this polish will be one that I will be breaking out for years to come! I was in LOVE with this polish!!!!! I applied 1 even coat over OPI "Dutch Tulips" (red) and Morgan Taylor "Making Waves" (blue). I topped off the look with one coat of Seche Vite. 










I know this was a long post! I tried to make this post both as informative and short as possible to give you all the details and honest review as well as lots of swatch pictures! 

I am VERY impressed with the quality of these glitter polishes! They were VERY easy to apply, very unique to my collection, and super shimmer the way glitter polishes should be! 

Customer service is amazing! Cindy communicated when my package was on its way and shipping was extremely quick! 

These polishes retail for $12.00. Considering how unique these glitters are, I feel her polishes are priced very well! I would recommend her polishes to any of my friends or family! Infact, I used one of her polishes (coming up in my next Shimmer review) on my Niece's best friend of her prom! It was truly beautiful!

Review: Duh- Nail polish

Good Morning beauties! I hope you all had a productive beginning of the week! It seems as if lately I'm struggling to get anything done! I think we have all been there though! :-) I have been quite busy working on swatches, and coming up with more ideas for blog posts! Do you have any good ideas for what you would like to see? 

The weather in Kentucky has been so humid and hot! Yesterday the temperature was about 90 (yes, in MAY) with what I would have to guess has to be 100% humidity! We're supposed to have 60 degree weather next week, and I am looking forward to that indefinitely! 
 **********************

It was great catching up with you all, but without further delay we have nail polishes by Duh- Nail Polish. I have to say how impressed I am with these two polishes! The colors are just beautiful! I paired each design with a simple stamp, which was complementary to each polish and topped with a 1 coat of Seche Vite Fast Dry top coat. 
*********************

The first polish is Bring me Spring Flowers which is a beautiful coral with a slight neon feel. This polish also includes speckles of blue, yellow, pink, white, teal, and brighter pink (I'm sure there are colors I'm missing here). Application was very nice with 2 even coats and no streaking, clumping, or balding. 

The color of this polish is just beautiful! Honestly it made my camera freak out a bit! The color pictured in the bottle is more true to color and shows that true coral apperance. I tried changing up the settings on my camera and took a milliion shots to get the true coral to come out on the nail and my camera was having no part of it! :-( I will say again though, how much I love this polish! I know this will be a winner for me in the summer months!




The other polish I have is Time for Flip Flops which is a seafoam blue/green polish with white speckles and gorgeous blue hexes! Application was flawless and applied evenly in 2 coats.

This polish is SOOO beautiful!!!! It's a blue/green dream! I fell in love with this swatch so much that I didn't want to remove it and wanted to instantly paint the other hands to match, however I had more swatches to do (I will be wearing this mani again this month). this is another that I will be wearing again all summer!!!!!






As you can see I did get a bit carried away with swatch pics! However I loved these polishes SOOOOO much that I wanted to show in a million angles (hehe). 

I am so impressed with Duh-Nail Polish and am so lucky to have had the opportunity to swatch their beautiful polishes! I am definitely interested in purchasing additional polishes in the future! 

Their polishes retail for $8.00 which in my opion is a GREAT value at such a great quality! I would recommend these polishes to anyone! If you are interested in purchasing these polishes take a look at the ways to find Duh-Nail Polish to purchase! 


I hope you all enjoyed this review and I hope you check out this indie brand! I know you will not be disappointed!

Review: My-Stash Lacquer California Dreamin'

I hope you are all having a wonderful Monday, if there is such a thing! Back to work and the weekend never seems quite long enough! I hope those of you who are Mothers had a wonderful Mother's Day! I spent yesterday with my Mom and am thankful that I have her to spend time with! 

I spent all day Saturday catching up on weeks worth of American Idol and still am not caught up! It's one of those shows that I do not realize that I have missed until I haven't watched it and spend countless hours catching up, swatching, and working on my blog! :-) 

*****************************************
 I have for you today another polish from Danielle from My-Stash Lacquer. This polish is named California Dreamin' and OMG ladies this polish is a glitter topper with multi-color glitters and BUTTERFLIES!!! First off, who does not love butterflies?! They are just so girly and precious! 

I applied this polish over China Glaze "For Audrey", however this color would be amazing over ANY color polish you wanted to pair with! :-) 

When I first saw this polish I knew that I HAD to have it!!!! I will be purchasing a full-size of this polish to have on hand!!!! 

Let's get down to the basics- Application was beautiful! I did not have to fish for glitter, she has NAILED her polishes when it comes to glitters! I applied 2 coats in the picture below and topped with 1 coat of Seche Vite. 




Bottom line- My-Stash Lacquer has blown be away again!!! This polish is a MUST have! If you are new to indies I think that you should branch out and try her polishes! 

You can find her polishes HERE for purchase!

I hope you enjoyed this beauty as much as I did!!! A HUGE thank you to Danielle at My-Stash Lacquer for sending me this polish!

Review: Liquid Glam Lacquer- PLUS RAFFLECOPTER GIVEAWAY!!!!

Hey there Ladies! I thought this past week was never going to end! Have you ever had one of those weeks where it seems like everything that could go wrong, does? I don't like to complain too often so when I do you know that it has been something that I have really let get to me! 

I don't know about you, but I love this time of year! I love watching the trees bloom and the flowers grow! This time of year is also the busy time of year for weddings!

Today I have some swatches for you from Liquid Glam Lacquer. This is from her newest collection released on May 1st, the Lets get Married Collection!!!! This collection is so fitting for this time of year and the polishes are all fitting for all year! I thoroughly enjoyed this collection... So let's dive in! 

*****************************************

Happily Ever After is a rosy but iridescent polish that shimmers and shines with gold, pink and purple. I layered it over China Glaze "In a Lily bit" from the City Flourish collection. 

This polish applied very smooth! what is swatched is 2 coats, as you see this glitter is very sparse but it gives the perfect amount of glitter to layer over practically any color! Stunning glitter topper! 
 





Tie the Knot is such a stunning polish! there are iridescent glitters, red glitters, small sheer hearts and black bows! I put this over a white polish by Sinful colors and for the ring finger I stamped using a Moyou London plate and a Pure Ice silver polish. 

The bows is what made me fall in love with this polish in the bottle. When I applied the polish the red glitters made me swoon!!!! The red glitters were so sparkly and beautiful! I did have to fish for the bows, however that is to be expected when they are mixed with the smaller glitters. I found that putting the bottle upside down for about 30 seconds assisted in getting them out. This polish is just beautiful! 








Platinum Ring is a beautiful silver polish with micro silver glitters. I applied it with no undies, and topped with a top coat. 

This polish is beautiful! I did find that it was a bit streaky during application, however when I applied top coat it seemed to smooth it all out and the streaks mostly disappeared. Without topper it dried to a slight texture finish with a very pretty satin finish. 



The Reception is a beautiful beige crelly polish with a variety of colored glitter through-out. No undies in the swatch and about 3 coats gives an opaque finish with NVL. 

I liked this polish so well that after I was finished swatching I applied to both hands and wore this beauty to work! This polish is work appropriate for any office job! I applied a Matte Top coat which really helps show the different color glitters. This polish is going to be a favorite for me and will definitely be a staple to my collection! :)




 The Bouquet is a pale pink crelly polish with bright pink hex glitters and iridescent hexes throughout. Applied beautifully in 3 coats with little fishing for the larger glitters. I stamped on the ring finger with a MoYou London stamping plate and a Sally Hansen insta-dry polish. 

This polish is gorgeous! It is so beautiful and dainty and has the right about of color and sparkle! I loved the application! Everything about this polish is girly, fun, flirty, and screams princess! I think this polish would be great for a wedding or a date night! 



 

These polishes by Liquid Glam Lacquer were beautiful! All polishes are a BIG 5 FREE and are hand blended!

Along with polishes she also makes other products for hands and skin which can be found HERE. I was lucky enough to receive a cuticle oil (which will be featured in a cuticle care blog coming soon) which was scented amazingly like peach!
