Nail of the Day: St. Paddy's Day!

Just a quick NOTD post for my St. Patrick's Day manicure! I'm heading out of town in the morning to go look at houses so I won't be around except maybe on IG. Hoping St. Paddy's Day give me the house hunting luck!

HAPPY ST. PATRICK'S DAY!

When I'm in a hurry and I want to do both hands the same - or nearly the same - I seem to always default to either a gradient of a toothpick marble.

Here I've used Zoya Tilda and Hunter. Perfect green combo for the day, n'est pas?

And yes, I do actually have 2 hands. This was taken with a timer and the camera precariously held under my chin. I'm klassy like that LOL!

Feel free to share ALL YOUR ST. PADDY'S DAY manis on my Facebook page!! It will give me something pretty to look at in my down time on the trip!

Hi everyone *waves frantically* - I'm popping back in with a lovely St. Patrick's Day Collection from Superficially Colorful. It's for St. Paddy's Day so of COURSE you know I'm all over that. It's an abbreviated post - fewer photos and such because I'm still in the middle of life. I think I've found "THE" house - now to coordinate a move across several states. It's a bit overwhelming! Exciting for sure and a bit scary.

So let's get to it! Swatches and review after the jump.

With St. Patrick's Day just around the corner, I thought I'd show you some cool nail polish strips from Incoco called Luck O' the Irish to celebrate!

If you know me at all, you know St. Patrick's Day is my favorite holiday. No one expects anything from anyone and no one is disappointed, lonely, left out...it's just a fun day! And it gets left out too often! In the stores it seems we go from Valentine's Day straight into Easter! What the HECK, people!

Joby Nail Art Stickers - Shamrocks for St. Patrick's Day

Press Sample 

♥

St. Patrick's Day is just around the corner and today I have a cute and EASY way to put some St. Paddy's Day cheer on your nails...with Joby Nail Art Stickers.

Just peel and apply! You don't really need a top coat, but I do like to seal mine in. Once they're on and positioned though, they're not going anywhere until you remove them with regular remover along with your polish. On this particular style, there are 4-leaf clovers as well as shamrocks, but of course I prefer shamrocks.

I used a base coat of KBShimmer Honeydew List and one coat of KBShimmer Clearly on Top.

A myriad of stickers are available at the Joby Nail Art site here and they can also be purchased through Overall Beauty and retail for around $2.00 per sheet. There are DOZENS of different images and styles so check them out.

XOXO Nails Patty's Delight Duo

♥

Happy St. Patrick's Day!!!

Today I have a great duo of polishes from XOXO Nails to show you - Patty's Delight, which consists of Don't Hate Me and Lucky Tips. These can be purchased together or separately in full size or minis - purchasing information at the end.

First up, Don't Hate Me. This one is a light grass green with a tiny glittery sparkle and tiny green glitters. I used 2 coats of this one and no top coat for the photos. No issues at all with formula or application.

Next up is Lucky Tips. This one is a clear-based glitter with green, lime and white glitter pieces. All the glitters came out nicely and laid perfectly flat on the nail. No dabbing required. I used two coats of this one over XOXO Don't Hate Me and then a bruised plum polish (Literary Lacquers If It Pleases You) and a plain black creme (Orly Liquid Vinyl) so you could see how it looks over different bases. One coat of Poshe top coat.

Glitter Daze St. Patty's Day Party Collection

♥

Not only is it MONDAY but "they" have stolen a full hour of my time! My clock says one thing and every fiber of my being begs to differ. So I thought we'd start out the week with a collection celebrating my favorite holiday. I have Glitter Daze's St. Patty's Day Party Collection to show you. There are two polishes in this collection: Lucky Clover and Heart O' Gold.

Glitter Daze St. Patty's Day Party Collection

------------------------------------------------------------------

Here's what Glitter Daze creator had to say about Lucky Clover:

Lucky Clover is a deep emerald green jelly nail polish with small green flecks, giving it depth and dimension. Emerald was voted the color of 2013 so this polish will be in style all year as well as on St. Patrick’s Day! Apply 3-4 coats of Lucky Clover to reach opacity or layer a couple of coats over your favorite Emerald cream to add a dash of sparkle!

Lucky Clover is a great emerald green jelly glitter polish and I had no issues at all with formula or application. I've used 3 coats of this one alone with one coat of Poshe top coat for the photos.

Here's what Glitter Daze creator had to say about Heart O' Gold:

Heart O’ Gold is truly a party in a bottle! Filled with white hearts, holographic gold hearts and stars, as well as a multi-sized green and copper glitter, all in a sparkly clear base; this polish will spice up a multitude of manis! 

Heart O' Gold is a clear-based glitter polish chock full of various shapes and sizes of glitters. No issues with this one either unless too many hearts is a bad thing. I got so many out that I had to put some back. Everything spread nicely and laid flat. I've layered this one over black and gold in one mani and Lucky clover in another so you could get a good idea of how it looks over different bases. One coat with one generous coat of Poshe top coat for the photos.

What do you think of this collection? The jelly is squishy goodness and the copper shimmer/micro-glitter in Heart O' Gold really makes it in my opinion.

These are available for purchase now and you can "like" GlitterDaze on Facebook to stay up-to-date for more information. Polishes retail for $11.00 - 14 mL bottle and $6.00 - 7 mL bottle.

Girly Bits Erin Go Bragh-Less - Swatches and Review

♥

I am in SUCH a St. Paddy's Day mood! So I have another St. Patrick's Day polish to show you this evening - Girly Bits Erin Go Bragh-Less! (Isn't that the cutest name?)

Erin Go Bragh-Less is a full-on St. Patrick's Day glitter bomb in a slightly tinted green jelly base. Here's what Pam, the creative genius behind the brand, had to say about Erin Go Bragh-Less:

Erin go Bragh-less is a stunning green jelly glitter, jam packed with various sizes and shades of green and gold, and holo. It is perfectly fine at two coats on it's own, and it's so deep and just swims with glowy glitter. The application is perfect, with no dabbing required, and the glitter picks up on the brush very well. This one is full of leprechaun magic.

This polish can be worn with 2 to 3 coats on its own but I've chosen to layer it over a few different bases. The formula and application are perfect and I had no issues at all.

Over a darker green, Ninja Polish Shillelagh, with one generous coat of Poshe top coat...

What do you think of this one? Like St. Patrick's Day in a bottle. Makes me want to go for a pint!

All Girly Bits Lacquers are hand poured, using the highest quality ingredients including B3Free lacquer base, mica, pigments and glitters.

Erin Go Bragh-Less, along with the other polishes from Girly Bits, is cruelty free and not tested on animals. It comes in a standard full size 15ml bottle and contains two stainless steel beads to help keep your product mixed.

Girly Bits polishes are available on Big Cartel and are also available at Overall Beauty, MeiMei's Signatures, Harlow & Co. and  llarowe.com for $10 to $13 retail for full .5 oz bottles.
