China Glaze Flip Flop Fantasy - Swatches and Review

Put your sunglasses on for this one! This evening I'm showing you a NEON!

China Glaze Flip Flop Fantasy

China Glaze Flip Flop Fantasy was part of China Glaze's Summer 2010 Poolside Collection. It's described as a coral pink neon creme, which is pretty spot-on but it definitely reads orange in low lighting.

Had a difficult time capturing it, but leaving "orange hands" in some photos allowed for the color-accuracy of the polish.

I used two coats with NO top coat.  It's a neon so it dries in a typical neon semi-matte. I loved it this way so I left it, but a shiny top coat can be added if you prefer. The application, however, wasn't typical neon. It applied VERY smoothly. No issues to report at all.

This polish is widely available on-line at various e-tailers and ranges from $2.99 to $5.00, generally.

What do you think? Do you love rocking neons for summer?

Dollish Polish Zombie Flesh - Swatches and Review

I'm not going to say a whole lot about the polish I'm showing you this evening. It pretty much speaks for itself.

Dollish CS and shipping were AWESOME. Zombie Flesh is AWESOME!

Perfect application. No fussing with glitter pieces. LOVE! This polish wasn't "top coat hungry" like some. Only one coat of Poshe did the trick.

One coat over a random green...no top coat unless specified.

Now THIS is my kind of green.  I can't think of ONE negative about it. Even the name rocks. What do you think? Would you wear this?

Dollish Polish can be purchased through her store on Big Cartel here. Be sure to follow her on Facebook ("like" her page) for updates about re-stocks and when she will re-open. These polishes are full-sized and retail for $8.75. I think she offers mini polishes from time to time as well.

butter LONDON Lillibet's Jubilee - Swatches and Review

Today I'm excited to show you butter LONDON's Lillibet's Jubilee!

This is a Limited Edition polish created especially for the 60th (jubilee) anniversary of Queen Elizabeth II's accession to the throne in Britain.

butter LONDON Lillibet's Jubilee

butterLONDON.com describes it thusly:

"This commemorative colour honours the international celebration marking the 60th anniversary of the Queen’s accession to the throne. Lillibet’s Jubilee is a silvery, lavender metallic foil, heavily infused with holographic glitter."


Lillibet was, apparently, Queen Elizabeth's childhood nickname. Or if it wasn't, it's now her nickname as far as I'm concerned, thanks to butter LONDON! (Sorry Lillibet!)


This polish applied extremely easily, especially for a foil! I used two coats out of habit, not out of necessity, as it's perfectly opaque and streak-free in one coat. Very smooth formula. I like that it's not a straight silver metallic foil but has a lavender tint that makes it somewhat unique in a sea of metallics. That's pretty difficult to do these days.


The only complaint I have about Lillibet's Jubilee is that it's described as being "heavily infused with holographic glitter." I didn't find that to be the case. I'm only disappointed because of the description because I actually think I like it better without the holo glitter. There's a tiny bit, but you have to look hard for it. So do not expect to see holographic glitter. Sorry.


Now on to the photos. No clean up, no top coat...

And lest you think it doesn't have a lavender tint...here you can see the difference

My skin tone doesn't look its best in metallic silver foil, no matter how much I like it, but the addition of the lavender really helped! What do you think? Will you be getting this L.E. polish?


butter LONDON polishes are available at butterlondon.com and selected retail stores like ULTA and they retail for $14.00 for .4 ounces. To stay up-to-date on special deals and offers, you can "like" them on Facebook here. Lillibet's Jubilee is just one of the over 60 colors they offer, in addition to various indulgences for your hands and feet...and even your lips. The nail lacquers are 3-free and butter LONDON is a Cruelty-Free company. That's a major plus for me.
