Above the Curve Genevieve, Sugar Rush and Some Fun

Press Samples  
*These products are Cruelty Free 


Good Morning!!!  Today I have a couple of polishes from Above the Curve to show you.

If you're not familiar with Above the Curve polishes 1) where have you been? and 2) you'll be happy to know that $1.00 from every single bottle sold goes to support the Shriners Children's Hospital. Always has. And I think that's awesome. (Stay until the end of the post for a sneak peek at what's coming up on Pointless Cafe tonight!)

First, let's have a little sweet treat! Here's my Neapolitan with Sprinkles mani using Genevieve and Sugar Rush (and Chanel Particulière)...

It's so simple, but I just loved that mani!

Now let's get to the polishes...

First up, Genevieve. That was my grandmother's name and while I never knew her, it still tugs at my heart strings when I hear that name. This one is a lovely muted pink creme with gold flecks. I used 3 light coats of this one and no top coat for the photos. No issues to report.

I had a hard time getting the gold to show in my swatch photos, so here's a macro bottle shot...

Sugar Rush is a sheer white base with various sizes of lilac, hot pink, aqua blue, green and yellow glitters and metallic holo micro-glitters. I layered two light coats of this one over a plain white creme base with one coat of Poshe top coat for the photos. I think this one could be layered and worn without a base of white as well. No issues at all. I didn't have to dig for or dab or place the glitter pieces.

What do you think of these two? I actually loved both of them! And I loved how they look together.
