Emily de Molly Devotion - Swatches and Review

Press Sample 
*This product is Cruelty Free 


Good evening! Tonight I have a scrumptious linear holo to show you from Emily de Molly - Devotion.


Emily de Molly - Devotion


Devotion is a purple linear holographic polish. I would say it's a blue-hued purple. The linear is strong but the polish is equally beautiful in shade or sun. I have photos of both below. The formula was great and I had no issues at all. I used no base coat, 2 coats of color and no top coat for the photos although I did put Poshe top coat on later and it did not diminish the holographic properties.

Ruby White Tips Boo2 - for Batworld.org

Press Sample 
*This product is Cruelty Free 


This morning I have another polish to show you from Ruby White Tips - one of their batworld.org polishes: Boo2!


Ruby White Tips Boo2


Boo2 is described as "super vibrant! It's base is blue, but has plenty of undertones of purple. There's some added holo micro sparkles that make it shine even more! This is best with a top coat but is still beautiful without one."

I used two coats of Boo2 with and without top coat for the photos. No issues with formula or application at all. The shimmer in this one is beautiful! I would describe this as a blue-hued purple with scattered holo.

Ruby White Tips polishes are all at least 3-free and most are 5-free, and vegan. They test their polishes for several months before releasing. Stay with me until the end of the post for a 20% off code!

I'm not sure how most of you feel about bats, but I've always held a special place in my heart for them. I actually have a bat house in my back yard. Not only does it stave off mosquitoes, the bat guano is great for plants! Before I started using this on my plants, I killed everything. And mosquitoes smell the bats and/or bat guano and hightail it somewhere else!

Available for adoption at batworld.org


Stay tuned for more Ruby White Tips polishes!

NOTD: Nails Inc. Dutchess Street

Personal Collection 
*This product is Cruelty Free 



I have a quick post for you today - sort of a Nail of the Day post I guess because it's actually my nail of the day! Nails Inc. Dutchess Street.

Dutchess Street is a deep blurple (blue-hued purple) creme. And you all know how I love my Nails Inc. cremes! This one has the same fantastic formula as the other Nails Inc. cremes I've tried (which is a LOT.) Smooth and easy, nearly a one-coater. I used two coats for this one and I wrapped the tips and used a top coat because I'm wearing it as my full mani.

And this guy was waiting for his breakfast this morning when we took the boat out. He snuck onto my camera's memory card. ♥







So what do you think of Dutchess Street? It's a great deep purple and the finish is magnificent.

Select Nails Inc. polishes are available here in the States at Sephora stores and at sephora.com and retail for $9.50 for regular polishes and prices vary on special effects, base coats, etc. Of course, if you're in the UK, you can order directly from nailsinc.com.
