White Dream

Also sheer? Yes, It is....

I seem to have a lot of these and I'm not quite sure what I'll do with them, we'll see!

This one also has a frosty look to it, but not as sheer as Icy Peony but you can still spot a VNL. It's called White Dream (302) from Isadora.






Hope you enjoyed!

Icy Peony

Another sheer polish that would work great for layering!

It has a frosty finish and nice shimmer. Here I put on 2 coats and as you can see I still have a VNL. I'm not sure it will go away with more coats so I decided to let it go like this!



A very nice polish for someone who don't want to show off but still look good and feel a bit girly!

Hope you enjoyed!

Chrome on!

Not yet tired of the magnetic trend!

Just love the easy way to make nail art... just put the magnet on top and it's done! This is Chrome On (850) that came in the Magnetic Nails collection in 2012. Here I've used the magnet that came with the polish and you can see the pattern on the second photo. One thin coat and let it dry, then one coat that is a bit thicker and hold the magnet for app. 30 second to allow the polish to set a bit. Try it!






 Just love how the magnetic polishes gets to be two-tones and this one shimmers like crazy!

Hope you enjoyed!

Latte Queen

Pulling out one more graffiti polish from the collection. This time Latte Queen, a light brown one, that I have a real problem finding a base color for. I was searching the web for some kind of decent advise, but nothing I found was good.... Well, I did try it...


 





The first two photos is on top of Brisk Yellow and for those I had to put two coats for the graffiti to show! The rest of the photos is with Frosty Chestnut as base color and that worked out a bit better, just one coat needed.

Hope you enjoyed!

Frosty Chestnut

As soon as I put the first coat on I loved this one!

Love the burgundy color and the nice shimmer in this polish. It works with two coats and it looks perfect with my pale fingers! It's number 646 and it came in the Bohemian Rhapsody collection in 2009, before I started my obsession...







Almost brown but still red.... there is something special with this one!

Hope you enjoyed!

Brisk Yellow

A sunny yellow shade with shimmer in it.

Works like a charm on my pale skin even though it's probably a lot nicer on somebody sunburned. It is not quite opaque enough in two coatsbut I decided not to put a third one on. The number for this one is 93, but I have no idea in what collection.... can't seem to find any clues with Google as my help either.





 This is an older polish and you can tell because it is uneven and it was hard to paint with.

Hope you enjoyed!

French Lily

I wanted to give you a proper swatch of this one even though it's made for a French manicured tip. This is French Lily (5).




It gives an uneven look if you try putting it on the whole nail, but for a nice French tip it work really well and the formula is great for that. Above I put 3 coats on and it's still not opaque enough to wear as a full manicure.

These last to photos is for you to see the difference. The first one is without any polish and on the second one I put 2 coats of French Lily just on the tip. It evens out any imperfection without looking to white.

Hope you enjoyed!

Golden Apricot

This subtle shimmering gold polish is perfect for when you need your nails to look good, but they don't need to be the center of attention! It's called Golden Apricot (161) by Isadora.

I put on 2 coats and because it's so sheer I didn't bother to try to loose the VNL, I liked it the way it looked!



Hope you enjoyed!

Smokey Grey

As I said somewhere along the way, black is not just black, we got fifty or more shades in between!

This is one of them. Called Smokey Grey (65) it is a dusty shade of grey and it covered in two coats. When I was painting a saw a tendency to blue in the brush but it didn't show up on the nails.





Hope you enjoyed!

Hot Hibiscus

I love hibiscuses!

This one is just the right color. It's Hot Hibiscus (735) by Isadora and just to show you, look at this....

This was taken four years ago by my stepdaughter when we all went to Spain for a week. I just love the color of these flowers! Now on to the nails...




It covered in two coats and the wide brush made it really easy!

Hope you enjoyed!
