Colors by Llarowe- Her Eyes Shined

My mouse stopped working so I will let the picture explain what I did LOL.

But I was REALLY happy to find this beautiful Femme Fatale color on Ebay for a normal price!! Then the next day I got one of the Colors by Llarowe in the mail- Her Eyes Shined. It is beyond beautiful.

I haven't used many jelly polishes, but this is the best kind I've ever used. I love how the blue shimmer sparkles on my nails without even using topcoat.

This is the result of my experiment:


You can get Colors by Llarowe on- guess where? llarowe.com! She's having a restock tomorrow. She has stocked twice and I still have not been able to get any of her holos. Wish me luck?

Dance Legends!!! New Prisms Optical Illusion & Cosmic Rainbow, Sahara Crystal Amethyst

I will have a lot of exclamation points in this post, because I waited about a month for this polish to arrive!

I was so happy to get a knock on the door from the mailman and see a box with Russian writing on it!


And you know me- I can't just wear on one color at once.

I am wearing: on my pointer and pinky finger: New Prism no 4 Optical Illusion (red toned purple) middle finger New Prism no 10 Cosmic Rainbow (blue toned purple) and on ring finger (accent nail) the sahara crystal amethyst. I used Zoya Pixie Dust Dahlia on the tip- I thought the black and purple would look really cool together.

These first two pictures were taken inside. The polish is so reflective(!) that it looks like there is polish on the palm of my hand(!), but there isn't! Unnecessary exclamation points FTW!!!

I accidentally got a blurry picture- I have seen some bloggers say they blur photos to emphasize holo/glitter in polish but you guys get to see the natural result of my shaky hands LOL


This was taken outside the next day.  I really don't have words for how beautiful these colors are!

Enchanted & Rainbow Honey

Here is another catch-up post for you!

I finally got a couple of polishes from the Enchanted Time to Pretend collection! I am wearing Kids in this one and I am very impressed by it!'

I also got a beautiful Rainbow Honey color called Sakura Matsuri. This is the first Rainbow Honey color I have ever had. The flowers really sucked me in.

I did a green gradient on my ring finger before layering the Rainbow Honey over it, but it was a hot mess. I used a dark green base color, then Darling Diva What You Do For Money Honey (I tried that by itself first, but it is very sheer) and on the tip of my nail I used NFU  056- a very bright green, pretty glitter.


The flowers came out too fast when I was working on my ring finger! They remind me of a beaded curtain pattern like on the cover of one of Britney Spears' old albums. (ew I'm showing my age now.) But can anyone see the resemblance?

ANOTHER giveaway?!

Yes, there is another giveaway! Llarowe is now giving away 8 polishes to celebrate her next launch day (Tomorrow) and it includes one of her newest holos (Black Gold, Texas Tea) so I am going to be insanely beyond jealous of whoever wins.

Insanely. I LOVE holos and I couldn't get any of Leah's before they sold out. :(

In fact, I love holos so much one lady started caling me the Holo Queen in one of the Facebook groups I'm in but there already is a Holo Queen! So can I be the Holo Princess maybe?

Hare Hooky at the Hamlet/emerald birthstone mani

Hi everyone! Sorry for not posting in awhile- I do have a few pictures leftover from before my awkward nail break, so I'll try to get caught up ASAP.

Have you ever based a manicure around one color beause you like it so much? That is what I did with HARE polish Hooky at the Hamlet. I was so happy when it was finally back in stock at Llarowe.

I did make it slightly darker by layering it over an Ozotic multichrome. Check here to see the original color (it's a lovely cyan on its own)
If memory serves correctly, my thumb and pinky nail are HITS chameleon, my wonky index finger was one of the new HITS multichrome holos (I have Super Cute and Sweet Dreams) and the middle finger was one I was very excited to get from a group- Green Peace on Earth by Enchanted.

I also was using an excuse to wear lots of green nail polish because my birthday was last month. I'm really loving emerald (my birthstone) being the color of the year this year- although I know my ring finger and the darker flashes on my thumb and pinky are the only emerald looking ones this time.
