Random Swatch Spam

Hi everyone! I'm trying to keep up posting but as it moves closer to Friday life is getting more and more hectic! >_< Today I decided to round up some random swatches I've had to at least get one post up. :)

 Sinful Colors Black Magic contains micro charcoal and small orange glitters. Shown is 3 coats with top coat.
 Even though this polish is pretty simple, it's a lot of fun for fall! :) To me it's halloween without too much halloween. :P
Find Sinful Colors in store at Walgreens, Walmart and Target. I have only seen this polish at Walgreens, so if you are on the hunt for it check there. ;) Follow Sinful Colors on Facebook and Twitter.
 Linda Johansen Razzle Dazzle is a purple jelly loaded with holographic shards. All nails are 3 coats with top coat. 
 This was a gift from Wenche, who runs Norway Nails, and I must say I'm a little upset with her over it. Only because it is awesome and I want more! :P I thought this would be similar to Zoya's polishes like this, but it is a lot sparklier! Formula was amazing as well. :)
I couldn't find too much about this brand that I could translate, sorry! I do know you can buy it through Norway Nails though! :)
 Pretty Serious Naughty Night Shift Nurse contains red to orange shifting flakies and blue shimmer in a purple to a red shifting base.  These photos show 3 coats with top coat.
 Sure what I am about to write is going to make those in the polish world cringe..I'm not a huge fan of this polish. :X It's really unique in it's overall look and contains colors I like, I just don't love it together. :/ I know a lot of other people do, so clearly it's just me :P
 Pretty Serious Emma Louise is described as a is a vibrant violet jelly base with golden green glass fleck, purple micro-glitter, and purple and green hex glitter. Shown is 2 coats with top coat.
 So, so, so happy I was able to get my hands on this color! I debated buying it forever after seeing Manicure Addict's post and then of course right when I decided to buy it, it went out of stock. >_< Luckily Pretty Serious brought it back and I was able to nab a bottle because I love everything about it! :D
 Both of these colors were limited and are currently out of stock. Sorry! :( Find other polishes from Pretty Serious through their online store. Make sure to follow Pretty Serious on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, Google+, Pinterest and YouTube.
 Lumina Lacquer Weird Science is a neon green/yellow texture. All nails are 3 coats with no top coat. 
 While I really love how different this is from any other textures I've seen, I can't really say I'm a huge fan of the formula. :/ It very thick and almost frothy?(if that make sense) It also was patchy during application and took a long time to dry fully. It really is amazing to look at and something new to the texture market, but the formula, ugg. :(
Lumina Lacquer Not Your Grandma's Pearls is a mixture of iridescent glitters, white hexes and white and silver circle glitters. Here I used 1 coat over 2 coats of Zoya Belinda. 
 This polish is awesome and really like how the circles add a nice pop. All together it reminds me of, well, pearls! :P
Find polishes from Lumina Lacquer through her BigCartel store and internationally through Norway Nails. I'm not sure if either of these colors will be restocked, but make sure to follow Lumina Lacquer on FacebookInstagram and through her newsletter to stay up to date on restocks. :)
 Cult Nails I Got Distracted is a black jelly base with heavy holographic and green glitter. Shown is 2 coats with top coat.
 Diana from Polish Monster swapped me this when Cult Nails was running a bogo deal a few weeks ago because she wasn't in love with it. Well good thing for me because I love it! Unfortunately this polish is discontinued. :( Make sure to scour blog sales if you are on the hunt for it! :)
 Cult Nails Nevermore is a basic black glossy creme. All nails are 1 coat with no top coat.
 I know it seems silly to show off something so basic, but guys this is the best black creme of all time! ;) Seriously though it's very shiny and gave complete coverage in just 1 coat. You can't ask for more than that! 
Purchase Cult Nails through their online store. Follow them on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram.

Shimmer Polish Airriann, Karen, Tracy and Wendy Reviews & Swatches

Hey everyone! Of course, as I assumed no extra post from yesterday. >_< Yesterday was more insane than normal and ended with my son spilling an ounce of loose glitter all over my carpet, so that was...fun. Let's try to aim for an extra post for today...maybe? :P
Anyways I have some more awesome glitter mixes from Shimmer Polish to share with you all. As always from Shimmer Polish, these polishes all had a perfect formula! :)



Airriann is a described as a pale pink glitter mix. Shown is 1 coat over 2 coats of Elevation Polish Epidote with top coat.
I think combo goes together pretty well, don't you? Sometimes it's good to follow pairings from the color wheel because they just work. ;)
 Karen contains a mixture of lavender, plum, silver and pink glitters in various shades, sizes and shapes. For these photos I used Karen in a gradient over 3 coats of Above the Curve Aphaea.
 This turned out super girly, and even though it's far from the normal for me...I love it! :P
Tracy is listed as a tarnished gold holo glitter mix. All nails are 2 coats of Lumina Lacquer Homesick at Space Camp with Tracy used as a gradient. 
 My high school colors were gold and blue, so I think that's why my mind put these 2 polishes together. Once again though, they work great together! :)
Wendy has a various shapes and sizes of purple, copper, silver and blue glitters. These photos are 1 coat of Wendy over 2 coats of Elevation Polish The Med.
Over The Med, Wendy really adds to the mermaid looks. :) The glitters remind me of little scales. ;)

Lumina Lacquer Homesick at Space Camp & Pinball Wizard

Hey everyone! I have a quick post for today and hopefully another post to follow later tonight. I make no promises on another post though. Anytime I seem to do that I can never stay true to my word. >_< So I will just stick with a "hopefully". ;)

Homesick at Space Camp is royal blue holograhpic. All nails are 2 coats with top coat.
This polish is gorgeous!! The formula was perfection as well and didn't leave me with any staining. :) So it's amazing all around. ;)
Pinball Wizard has a clear base filled with various shapes, sizes and colors of matte glitters. Shown is 1 coat of Pinball Wizard over 3 coats of Elevation Polish Echinops.
Lumina Lacquer never dissapoints with fun glitter mixes and Pinball Wizard is no exception. :) All of the glitters, even the larger ones, were very easy to get out and gave me no troubles at all. Now if only I could get my nails to light up and really look like a pinball machine. :P
Both of these colors are currently out of stock, but make sure to follow Lumina Lacquer on Facebook, Instagram and through her newsletter to stay up to date on restocks. :) You can find a few polishes in stock now through Lumina Lacquer's BigCartel store

Lumina Lacquer Crushing Candy, Discotheque & Graduate

Happy Friday! I have some awesome polishes from Lumina Lacquer to share today and an attempt at some nail art! :P

Crushing Candy contains a variety of matte circles and hexes in a clear base. On my index and pinky nails I started with 2 coats of OPI Don't Touch My Tutu, added 2 coats of Crushing Candy and then applied 1 more coat of Don't Touch My Tutu. For my middle and ring nail I applied 2 coats of Crushing Candy over bare nail, marked off the "break" with striping tape and then applied 2 coats of OPI Don't Touch My Tutu. 
Hopefully everyone gets the idea of the breaking jelly! ;) Oh how I loathe seeing "Clear all the jelly" when I play Candy Crush!
Discotheque has a mixture of red and gold glitter, neon orange stars and large purple circle glitter all in a clear base. Here I layered  coats over 2 coats of Sinful Shine Your's Truly.
Love this glitter mix! The red and gold accent each other perfectly and come on guys there are circle glitters! :P
Graduate is a light pink crelly with an assortment of neon hexes, stars and bars. All nails are 3 coats with top coat.
Neon glitters and a pink "crelly" base? Yes, please! Another awesome polish that you need! ;)
