Zoya Anastasia

Hey guys! Whats up? Sooo, I've been on and off with the posting and that upsets me but please bare with me. So today I have a pure beauty for you all. Get ready to feast your eyes one of my beloved Zoya babies. My few but cherished ones.

I was not kidding. Zoya Anastasia is a deep Brown with what zoya calls strong "Purple undertones, golden Plum duochrome, and heavy Gold microglitter." I couldn't agree more! Definitely a brown color, but the golden glitter is strong, and the plum douchrome is always noticeable at every angle. I got a close up shot so you can see how packed with glitter it is.

You know I'm really so pleased with the polishes I got from Zoya, so I need get a few more polishes and make my collection bigger. In the short period of time I've owned these I have been complimented so much on my choice in polishes and I know its because these are truly special polishes. These pictures here are two coats. I wouldn't call this a one-coater because you would definitely need two to just even it out. Application was relatively easy and the formula on this polish was really good. Overall, I'm sold on this.

HM Lady Luck

Hey guys today I'm showing you swatches for a polish from H&M. You know I would have never thought to get a polish from a clothing store just because I would guess its not good quality, but I've heard alot about these H&M polishes and I was very excited to try it when I got it as a gift. Anyway so here is Lady Luck which is a duochrome btw! Love.

H&M Lady Luck is a dark metallic green polish to gold duochrome polish. Simply a must have. Quality is very very fine. This took two coats and thats mostly out of habit because you could definitely get away with only one. Formula on this was very good and easy to work with. The brush was also good, its a tad bit bigger from the bottom than the top (like fan shaped) but very easy to work with. Have you noticed that all of my duochromes have to have green in them. Strange because green wouldn't be my first pick! but still beautiful! Thats all for today.

LCN MultiChrome Polish

Hey everyone! Today I have a a really strange polish to show you. Its an amazing polish that literally looks like a rainbow. I just stare at it forever in the bottle. Enough talking...right, I'm sure you want to see this precious. Precious I tell you! Translation onto the nail...Well see for yourself!

So as you can see although in the bottle there is Mardi Gras Green, purple, gold, pink, and blue. On the nail however, there is only three different colors: green, purple, and blue. So technically its still multichrome...just not as spectacular as in the bottle. This upsets me, but what can you do? This is also sad because this LCN 169 contains DBP, Toluene, and Formaldehyde. I dont usually care if polishes contain that but for some reason I was pretty upset when I saw all the stuff this had in it. But it was so easy to apply. Formula was perfect...and it took three coats but it dried really fast. So thats pretty good. But still translation onto the nail wasn't impressive at all. So thats all for now!

Oh yeah and enter my Pre-100 Follower Giveaway if you still haven't my dears!!

OPI Go On Green

Hey everybody! Whats goin on? So today I want to show you another color I've used in some of my posts without ever properly swatching it. It's Go On Green by OPI. I'm really trying to go through my polish stash before my massive shipment of polishes comes in. So this is just another one I found today and thought I needed to go through. This color is technically not green so I dont know why they named it that but anyway here it is...



OPI Go On Green



I really dont know what to think of this color. On the one hand its very summery and fun and on the other hand I dont think its flattering on my nail shape. The last time I tried it on I thought it really complimented my skintone and nail shape and now I dont really like it. Plus I've gained alot of ridges in my nails recently (joy!) and so because this color is super sheer you must use a ridge filler before or else every single ridge in your nail will be defined, just like my nails in these pics.

Go On Green is a sheer blue base with green glitter all throughout which gives it a duochrome appearance in lights although I couldn't get the green shimmer to show up in these pics but its very visible in life. This color required three coats to become like this but I would even go in for another coat because its actually very sheer, I have some VNL in my pics. Application was good and easy so thats a plus.

As for skin tone appropriatness if your skin is like me and looks super tan and nasty with sheer light colors dont go for this. I really didn't think it was flattering on me right now but it still is a very beautiful color. Thats all for now. Peace and Love!

Golden Rose Duochrome

Hey Everyone! I hope your day is going well. Mine was awful, I got very sick in the morning...I think I got the stomach flu. Anyway, I was in bed until just now. But no worries, I have a manicure to show you. I do commit, lol! This is Golden Rose Fantastic Color in 113. For those of you who dont know this company, its a Turkish nail polish company (well they sell other beauty products as well). And they have really amazing colors. I only find these polishes in random stores and by chance...but they do have branches mostly all around the world, so check out their website if your interested and you want more info on that. Wow, that sounded like an advertisement didnt it? Its just cuz I really like them...Anywho!



Golden Rose soft duochrome



These pictures are with 4 coats of the color. I dont think you would be able to achieve opacity, but it can get quite dense. So I tried like 2 billion different angles and the shift would not come up. So my description will have to do. It shifts froms light purple to dark pink to even light yellow in some lights. Unfortunately in my pictures it only comes up light purple. And this color is superb for layering. On a white base it gives off a very faint pinkish yellow color...not so special. On black it gives off a fuchsia color with black rims...its really pretty. And you can layer it on any color you like. I would suggest layering it on different colors than its own duochrome. For example layering it on pink gives nothing but a hint of shine. So be bold and do strange combo's you'll end up liking it more. That's all for today. Peace and Love!

ARISSA Duochrome Nail Lacquer

Hey yall! Hows it going? Today I have a lovely duchrome polish made by Arissa, which is a nail polish company that I honestly know little about but I believe it is an American company located in Rancho Cucamonga, Ca (or atleast thats what my bottle says). I'm not the biggest fan of pink so when I first saw this it felt kinda meh...then I thought of something like that pink spice nail polish from Accessorize and I thought maybe. Anyway, I bought home and here's how it looks



Arissa Nail Lacquer in Pretty



Inside it looked like a simple deep pink polish that had a touch of copper/gold in it. Outside it's full blown copper with just a hint of orange and it reminds me of Autumn. Now this is rather sheer, I applied 3 coats to get this look. On the extreme it gives a burnt yellow glimmer and it looks amazing!

Overall, I really like this brand. The polish applies well, whats in the bottle is what you get although it looks slightly cooler in the bottle. I would definitely get some more of this brand. I actually got another color but I dont know how much I like that one. Maybe, i'll do a post on that in the future. So this is it, what do you think? I like it, but its definitely not my favorite!

Random Colored nail polishes

Hey! So, i have a really cool mani that i wanna show you guys but im waiting for something and then Boy...am I gonna show you! hehe. Anyway, so before that i want to just share some recent nail polishes that i got with you guys. I think there awesome!

Essence Colour & Go Where Is The Party?

This is Essence Colour & Go in Where Is The Party? Its an awesome duochrome that flashes between purple and green as you can see in the second picture. Its a really weird color, and some people might not like it but i think its pretty amazing. The brush is small because the bottle is super small like i dont know if the whole collection is small but all of the Colour & Go's that i found were mini so maybe. Like this is only 5 mL where most other nail polishes are an average of 10 mL. So you get the idea.
Anyway, this was also kind of streaky which upset me. Also, it was rather bubble which is weird because i applied this just as i do any other nail polish but for some reason it came out sort of bubble on some fingers.

So that's that. I think its cool, also pretty much there whole collection was amazing. I only got three but i think i'm gonna get some more.

On to the next this is Sally Hansen Complete Salon Manicure in Shrimply Devine

Ok so thats super close up...hehe. Anyway its a awesome corally shrimp color pretty much as the name says. Its suppper suppppper pretty. I love it. Its no too pink or too orangey which is cool. And its a very flattering color. Dont be deceived by the color it really shows up beautifully. I dont know, sometimes Sally Hansen nail polish brushes annoy me. And then sometimes they are so efficient and they make applying nail polish that much easier. This was one of those times. I finished my application with like literally one swipe. How awesome is that?
Dont you just love it when a nail polish actually applies itself? God knows i do!
