Nail of the Day: Fancy Gloss Camo Home with Me

Nothing to Disclose 
*This product is Cruelty Free 


Happy NOT MONDAY! I just have a quick Nail of the Day post today - sort of a "drop and run" - but this polish is so pretty I had to show you.

Fancy Gloss
Camo Home with Me




Camo Home with Me is like the forest green version of Frozen Berries, which took my top spot/favorite for 2014. Perfect formula and application - nearly a one-coater but I used two coats and one coat of top coat for the photos. Nice holo, well-pigmented.






I LOVE this one. And I think it's a green that will be wearable for most skin tones. Greens are harder than some colors, but this shade and the pigmentation combined with the holo really helps.

The Fancy Gloss site is open now with a few shades still in stock and lots of cute plates. If you missed their pre-order Sunday, what IS out of stock is stocking today at the Llarowe re-stock at 12 noon (mountain time). 

This was my 2nd order with them and their shipping is lightning fast. Check out and like the Fancy Gloss Facebook page and Instagram as well to see the new shades coming out and for more swatches. And now, you can purchase through Llarowe.com!





If you enjoyed this post, please take a second to "like" it! Thanks!

Superficially Colorful: The Search Tempest and British Chocs

*These products are Cruelty Free 


Superficially Colorful
British Chocs and The Search Tempest




Tonight I have 2 more beauties from Superficially Colorful's new collection called My Favorite Things. These polishes are all named from mostly funny moments from our group of friends and if I told you the story behind some of these names, well I might have to kill you! Here's how Jin described the names: A collection inspired by bits and pieces of stories, jokes and funny moments with my besties! So...let's just have a look at the beauty!

The entire My Favorite Things Collection is made up of glitter jellies that all have the same great formula. Full on glitter bombs that are smooth and opaque in two coats! No issues at all with formula or application. Glitters are suspended perfectly in the base, come out of the bottle easily and spread evenly on the nail. Blingtastic!


This time we have British Chocs and The Search Tempest.

Nire's Desire: Anam Cara - Swatches and Review

Nothing to Disclose
*This product is Cruelty Free 



When I saw this and the name, I knew I had to make it MINE! And I'm glad I did. So today I'm going to show it to you: Nire's Desire Anam Cara. Plus, it's Irish, so it fits in really well this week with St. Patrick's Day just around the corner.

Nire's Desire
Anam Cara




"Anam cara" (Ananchara) is a Gaelic word/phrase that loosely translates as "soul" friend. And I'm blessed to have a couple of those. I also have a ring with this on it but I can't seem to find it! ACK!

Girly Bits Cosmetics: Hiss and Lear

*This product is Cruelty Free 


Girly Bits
Hiss and Lear



Listen here! Get it? Hiss and Lear? I love spoonerisms!

I couldn't even do a proper preview collage for this one because it has SO MANY personalities! Hiss and Lear is a multi-chrome and it has more color shifts than I thought were possible in one polish!

It just looks like a gorgeous green polish at first...



Although you can see on the index nail that it just might not be that straightforward!

As always, NONE of the photos you are going to see have been color-altered in any way.

Scofflaw Nail Varnish Winter 2014 Collection - Drop Dead Fred

*This product is Cruelty Free 


Today continues swatches of the new Scofflaw Winter 2014 Collection set to launch January 5th, 2013. Right now I have Drop Dead Fred to show you.

Here's what the creator had to say about this collection and her inspiration: Now, you may have noticed I don't really do 'collections', per se. Only in the most vague way. If the winter collection had a theme, it would be the idea of 'comfort'. My go-to colors. Colors that make me feel cozy. Polish names that give me a warm fuzzy - you get the idea!


SCOFFLAW NAIL VARNISH
WINTER 2013 COLLECTION




I've decided to give each one of these beauties its own post so I could show you both in artificial lighting and indirect natural lighting without trying to keep it short. Then I will do a round-up post so they'll all be in one place for future reference.
