Blog Catch Up Post!!!

Sorry for my absence lately!  Things have been so busy I haven't had a chance to add my manis to the blog.  Here is what has been going on mani-wise for the past week or so:

1) Gator Mani
Kunimitsu Lucky Goldfish- sheer blue jelly with copper/orange glitter; opaque in 3 coats
Zoya Pixie Dust Dhara- textured bright orange pixie dust; opaque in 2 thin coats
Glossy Glam top coat- a new standard in my mani routine

the game did not go so well...but I was loving this mani! GO GATORS!!!

2) Rica True Blood Collection- Shifter
First of all, I am absolutely in love with this polish.  I love black and I love grey.  This is both (it is a thermal color changing polish). Oh, and by the way...it is also a beautiful holo that shines "bright like a diamond" in the sunlight.  The application was a dream.  Two easy coats and it was perfection.  I finished it off with a Glossy Glam top coat and I was done.  I wore this mani for several days because I just did not want to take it off.  I also got Fang Banger and Blood of Lilith from the Rica True Blood Collection.  I have not tried them yet, but I probably will sometime this week.  I am also lusting after the rest of this awesome collection.  You can find it on Justricarda on Etsy.  Re-stock will be live this Friday (I think).  Check me out on instagram (@bianca788) for a video of Shifter changing colors!

not the best picture, but I love that you can see the sparkle! 

3) Zoya Pixie Dust Carter- royal purple textured pixie dust; opaque in 2 coats
and...I did not photograph this mani. fail.  I love this color so much that I wore it for my bachelorette weekend.  Next time I use it, I will definitely make sure to take a picture of this sparkly gem.

4) Pretty & Polished When Hearts Kaleidoscope- raspberry glitter packed crelly from the Pretty & Polished Fall 2013 collection; opaque in 2 coats

I used Gelous to smooth out this polish and then added a coat of Seche Vite on top.

I love all the berry and gold glitter particles! 

This concludes my monster blog post! Sorry for the major delay in posting these, but I can't promise that it won't happen again ;)

love,
B
