Good morning! This morning I have another Colors by Llarowe polish for you - Trouble!

Colors by Llarowe Trouble

Trouble is part of the Cheetoman and the Gang Collection and is described by the maker as follows:

This collection is named after my band of crazy kittens.  

Trouble is just that...trouble. He is always into everything, causing chaos and anarchy everywhere he goes. All the while with the most serious look on his face. This color is as intense as he is...

Medium/dark royal blue holo.

A portion of the proceeds from sale of this polish will benefit the ASPCA.

I used two coats of this one and no top coat. No issues to report. Formula was smooth and easy.

I'm back again with another thrifty polish for Thrifty Thursday! This time it's Milani Sail Away.

Sail Away was introduced as part of their Spring 2012 line and is now in their permanent line. It isn't one of their High Speed Fast Dry line however, it was a one-coater and dried super fast. It's a navy blue with tons of silver and lighter blue shimmer. Formula was smooth and creamy - no issues at all. One coat of polish and no top coat for the photos.

What do you think? I can't believe I've had this one for over a year and it's the first time I've tried it. I LOVED the formula!

Milani polishes are available at milanicosmetics.com and most drug and grocery stores all over the US. This one retails for $4.49. But drug stores frequently have sales on them.

Colors by Llarowe In the Navy - Swatches and Review

Press Sample

We're on a downhill slide to the long weekend! So how about a happy, bright blue linear holo? This morning I have Colors by Llarowe In the Navy for you.

Colors by Llarowe In the Navy

Over the coming week I have several brand-spanking new polishes to show you from Colors by Llarowe. These polishes begin launching on May 26, 2013 at Llarowe.

In the Navy is a bright, vibrant navy blue linear holo. The linear is strong but I still don't have full sun, so you can imagine what it looks like in full sun if it's this linear in artificial lighting. No issues at all with formula or application. This one is pretty much a ONE coater but I used two for the photos - and NO top coat.

Pure Ice All Night Long

♥

Good Morning! Today I have another "thrifty" polish to show you: Pure Ice All Night Long.

All Night Long is a great navy blue shimmer polish. It went on smoothly and easily and I used two coats for full opacity - no top coat for photos! No issues to report. The formula is fantastic. This isn't one I won from the recent #NailBasel and #PureYou contests Pure Ice has been having on their Facebook page, but be sure that I will be showing you those on the blog over the next few months.

But before I show you more of All Night Long, I want to show you what I received yesterday! A HUGE box yesterday with my winnings...can you even believe this?

I used 16 Pure Ice polishes to create the #NailBasel winner...

And the winning photo for the #PureYou contest...

Okay, so here are the rest of the All Night Long photos...

SpaRitual Undercurrent - Swatches and Review

Happy Tuesday!

SpaRitual Undercurrent is part of their Water Collection for Spring 2012. This collection is special in that it was created to help support Surge, a non-profit that seeks to improve access to clean, safe water to communities around the world. SpaRitual is donating 20% of all proceeds from this collection to Surge.

Today I'm just showing Undercurrent, but stay tuned for the rest of collection in coming days. I've used a few of these in water marbles and such since they came out and didn't realize I hadn't actually reviewed them for you!

Undercurrent is a medium-to-dark navy blue creme. Application and formula were good and I used two coats for full opacity and no top coat. It dries very shiny. It's not my favorite navy creme, but it's not bad.
