Zoya Wanderlust Collection Summer 2017 Pt 1 - Press sample

Nothing screams summer more than the Zoya Wanderlust Collection. This collection consists of twelve brand new nail polish shades and three lipsticks. Because of the size of the Zoya Wanderlust Collection, I've broken it into two parts. Today we will focus on the pinks, purple, blue, and lipstick.

Baroness X Shift in Space-Time Collection - Press sample

Hey guys! I'm back with some show-and-tell with the upcoming Baroness X Shift in Space-Time collection. This six piece collection was inspired by the movie Interstellar. This collection explores themes like shifting space-time, blakc holes, the 4th dimension, and other details regarding the movie itself.

Hey guys! I'm back with a beautiful shade from Ever After Polish's September 2016 box. This was a Nightmare Before Christmas themed box featuring two polishes. I only have half of the box, so today's post features Ever After Polish Sally.

Hey guys! I hope you are having a great Monday so far. Before you get confused, I did not go back to square nails. I have a MASSIVE backlog of personal (non press sample) swatches and nail art to share with you guys. When I say massive, I mean I have swatches from all the way back in January... like five months ago if you are counting.

Today's post features Colors By Llarowe Mona Lisa. My mother gave me a CBL gift card for my birthday, and this was one of several shades I picked up.

I had a bit of a hard time teasing out the holo flare under the daylight bulbs, but you can see it in the bottle shot above.

Oh man. You guys can probably see that I fell behind on this nail art challenge. If you didn't notice the lack of posts just pretend that these are totally on time. May turned out to be an unexpectedly busy month all around. Work picked up, my training has been taking up more time, and I've attended more social gatherings than normal. I *think* things are settling down now, so there will be an uptick in posts soon! I have at least 24 manicures that need to be retouched and posted, some of which date all the way back to February.

Today's post features my take on the #clairestelle8may challenge prompt "cities". At first I was entirely stumped on what to do, but then I remembered I had an adorable image plate from MoYou London that I had yet to use.


How cute are these houses?! I just want to move right in.

You may notice that some of these shades don't quite look like the polishes under the product list. I was feeling particularly... picky? that day and decided to create custom blends using a few different shades. I'm not entirely sure what I mixed together for some of the colors, but all of the polishes used are listed below.
