DIFFERENT dimension Nevermore: Swatch and Review

DIFFERENT dimension Nevermore: Swatch and Review 

*Purchased by Me*

Happy Humpday! Today, I have a polish from DIFFERENT dimension to share with you! If you've been around here (or around my Instagram) for a bit, it's no surprise to you how much I adore Missi and her brand. Well, this baby right here is no different! This is Nevermore:





Nevermore was a part of the Poe. collection that was released for Halloween 2016. It is described on the site as a black linear holographic polish with added orange shimmers and orange microglitters. Now, I love black polish in all shapes and sizes. But Missi took that love to another level; the added orange microglitters made this so multidimensional and unique, I didn't take this off for days! I was able to get Nevermore opaque in just two coats; however, because of the added microglitters, it was a tad bit bumpy, requiring two coats of glossy top coat to smooth it out. Other than that, though, there were absolutely no issues with this polish! 

DIFFERENT dimension Nevermore is still currently available on the website, and it costs $12.00 for a full-sized 15 mL bottle; you can find the listing for it right here

Holo-Maniacs Group Customs for March 2017: Swatch and Review

Holo-Maniacs Group Customs for March 2017: Swatch and Review

*Sent by maker for swatch and review*

Hey, hey!! I'm here today to share with you one of the group customs that was created for my Facebook group Holo-Maniacs for the month of March! This beauty was created by Kayla of Creative Cuticles Nail Polish, and it is absolutely gorgeous! 






Creative Cuticles Nail Polish Holo-Maniacs Custom #18 is described as a dusty brown holographic polish. I was able to get it opaque in three thin coats; the dry time was great, and it dried glossy. Shown is with one layer of glossy top coat; pictures were taken under an artificial daylight lightbulb!

CCNP Holo-Maniacs Custom #18 is available through the entire month of March, and you must be a member of the group to be able to purchase it; here is a link to the Facebook page! 

Please also be sure to check out Kayla and CCNP on social media!

There is also another custom for the group this month, which was created by Simone of Ms. Sparkle Nail Polish. Ms. Sparkle is a Dutch brand, but she does ship overseas! I do not yet have her beautiful creation in hand, but there are swatches and details of her polish in the group; it is green!! This custom is also available throughout the entire month of March. 

Thank you so much for stopping by, and I hope to see you next time!

DIFFERENT dimension International Space Station: Swatch and Review

DIFFERENT dimension International Space Station: Swatch and Review

*Purchased by Me*


Happy Saturday!! I have lots of swatches on my computer to share with you, so I hope that I will be able to write them up in a good amount of time and have them posted! Tonight, I am sharing a polish from DIFFERENT dimension with you, named International Space Station (ISS, for short). 






ISS was a part of Missi's Cosmologically Speaking Part 3 collection. It is described on the website as a medium teal with scattered holographic effect. While this beauty is holographic, it is also chock full of flakies, which adds even more dimension! I was able to get it opaque in three thin coats, and it dried quickly and smoothly; shown is with glossy top coat, under a daylight bulb. This was a tiny bit difficult to remove, because of the flakes, but a bit of rubbing with an acetone-soaked piece of craft felt makes it easier! 

DIFFERENT dimension's International Space Station (ISS) is still currently available, and it costs $10.00 for a full-sized, 15 mL bottle; you can find the listing for it right here

Dreamland Lacquer Sassenach: Swatch and Review

Dreamland Lacquer Sassenach: Swatch and Review

*Purchased by Me*
Happy New Year to you!! It's a time to start anew, and to make the world your own! I, personally, am ready to make the most of everyday, no matter what it takes. Do you have any resolutions? 

Today, I am sharing a color from Dreamland Lacquer that I picked up during their Black Friday sale. Noelie has so many beautiful colors and finishes, and it was difficult to make a decision; so, I picked out three different polishes! The one that I have to share with you today is named Sassenach. 

Sassenach is described on the Dreamland Lacquer website as a dark brown linear holographic. The formula on Sassenach was smooth and buttery, and it applied evenly and dried quickly. I was able to get it opaque in two coats, and the final product did benefit from one layer of glossy top coat. My pictures were taken under an artificial daylight bulb. 


The holo flame on Sassenach is absolutely stunning, and I actually kept this on for about four days, with very minimal chipping when I removed it! 

You can find the listing for Sassenach on Dreamland Lacquer's website right here. The cost is $11.50 for a full-sized, 15 mL bottle. Noelie currently has the shop in Vacation Mode until January 11th, but you are still able to order; it will just be in pre-order status until she returns!

Ever After Polish The Wicked Collection (Part One): Swatches and Review

Ever After Polish The Wicked Collection (Part One): Swatches and Review

*Purchased by Me*

Hello, there! Today, I am sharing part of one of Ever After's newest collections with you: The Wicked Collection! Yep, that's right; this collection is based off of the play Wicked! Now, I've never seen it, but it is most definitely on my bucket list! 

The Wicked Collection is made up of 6 polishes, and I will be showing you three today, and three later on. To avoid being repetitive, each of these three polishes was smooth and easy to apply, had a quick dry time, and dried glossy. Each color is shown with two coats for full opacity, plus one layer of glossy top coat. Let's get to it! 

Ever After Polish Fly My Pretties, Fly

The first color that I'm showing you is Fly My Pretties, Fly. This is described on the Ever After site as a deep chocolate leaning plum with blue to purple crystal flakes with blue to purple shimmers. It is available here, and the cost is $10.50 for a full-sized 13.5 mL bottle.


I also added some stamping on top of Fly My Pretties, Fly!  This image is from a plate by UR Beautiful, and I used white Konad polish to stamp. 



Ever After Polish Defying Gravity

Next up is Defying Gravity! Defying Gravity is described on Ever After's site as a black jelly with green and purple shimmers and flecks with scattered holo sparkle. It is available right here, and the cost is $10.00 for a full-sized 13.5 mL bottle. 


I chose another image from UR Beautiful to stamp on top of Defying Gravity, and again used white Konad polish. 


Ever After Polish The Emerald City

The third color that I have to share with you today is The Emerald City. The Emerald City is described as a deep emerald green with silver shimmer. This may just be my favorite out of the three colors that I'm showing you today! You can find The Emerald City right here, and the cost is $10.50 for a full-sized 13.5 mL bottle. 


I again chose an image from UR Beautiful, and stamped with white Konad polish. I think that this is also my favorite image out of the three! 


So, what's your favorite out of these three polishes? As I said above, my top one is going to have to be The Emerald City. I'll be back soon with the other half of The Wicked Collection!

Lollipop Posse Lacquer I Felt You Like Electric Light: Swatch and Review

Lollipop Posse Lacquer I Felt You Like Electric Light: Swatch and Review

*Purchased by Me*

Welcome to the weekend! Today, I'm sharing a color from Lollipop Posse Lacquer with you, which I picked up at Polish Con. I only own a few polishes from LPL, but let me tell you; they are all AMAZING! That, and Karen, the maker, is an absolute sweetheart! 

Let's get to the polish!


Lollipop Posse Lacquer's I Felt You Like Electric Light is a part of Karen's Summer of '96 Collection. It is described as a duochrome linear holographic that also suspends holographic microflakies. The blue base contains a cyan to blue to purple shift. You might also catch a hint of copper in the shift! 

I Felt You Like Electric Light is so multi-dimensional, and all of the components mesh so well with each other! I was oohing and aahing from the second I picked up the bottle, and couldn't wait to apply it! It applied smoothly and evenly, and became fully opaque in two easy coats. It dried smooth, and was fully dry in about 3 minutes. Shown is with one layer of glossy top coat, under a daylight bulb. 

You can find I Felt You Like Electric Light right here; it costs $12.00 for a full-sized 12 oz. bottle.

October 2016 Customs for Holo-Maniacs and Fantasmic Flakies: Swatches and Review

October 2016 Customs for Holo-Maniacs and Fantasmic Flakies: Swatches and Review

*Sent by makers for review*

Long time, no blog! I'm back today with the October 2016 customs that were created for both Holo-Maniacs and Fantasmic Flakies, two groups that I created on Facebook. Each month, we have two featured makers who create gorgeous polishes based off of member-submitted and voted inspiration pictures. Let's take a look at what we have for this month! 

Holo-Maniacs Customs for October 2016

Sassy Pants Polish Dark Opal (Holo-Maniacs Custom #8)

One of the brands for Holo-Maniacs is Sassy Pants Polish. Angie, the maker, created a dark purple jelly base polish with orange, purple, gold, and silver holo glitters, as well as copper metallic glitters. Dark Opal applied smoothly and evenly, and I did not need to fish for or over-manipulate any of the glitters. Shown are three thin coats for full opacity, plus one layer of glossy top coat and one layer of matte top coat.

Nail Hoot Lacquer Holo-Maniacs Custom #9

 
 
The second featured brand for Holo-Maniacs is Nail Hoot Lacquer! Brandie of Nail Hoot created a polish that is described as a deep red linear holo. Holo-Maniacs Custom #9 had an impeccable formula (it was my first polish from Nail Hoot), and I was able to get it opaque in two smooth coats. Shown is with one layer of glossy top coat. 

Fantasmic Flakies Customs for October 2016

Lou It Yourself Trip the Lights Flaketastic 

Lou from Lou It Yourself created a deep but bright blue polish packed with glass fleck and purple flakies. The formula was nice and smooth, and it dried quickly to boot! Shown are three thin coats, plus one layer of glossy top coat and one layer of matte top coat. 

DIFFERENT dimension Raindrops on Roses 

The second maker for Fantasmic Flakies is Missi from DIFFERENT dimension, and she created two different polishes! The first is called Raindrops on Roses. 


DIFFERENT dimension Raindrops on Roses is described as a medium violet jelly with added shimmers to create a duochrome effect. Added multi-chrome and sterling silver flakies. As with all DD polishes that I own, this was opaque in three thin, easy coats. Dry time was great, both between coats and when completed. Shown is with one layer of glossy top coat and one layer of matte top coat. 

DIFFERENT dimension Storms Don't Last Forever


The second of Missi's creations, Storms Don't Last Forever, is described as a violet to copper to gold multi-chrome polish with added multi-chrome flakies, shimmer, and holographic flakies. Shown are three thin, easy coats, plus one layer of glossy top coat and one layer of matte top coat.
