Beyond the Nail's Chew On This

Chew on This is a pale pink pastel crelly-based glitter with white bar glitter and grey, purple & pink hex glitter. I laid a foundation of OPI's Mod About You to brighten it up so it would look a bit better on me.  Great application!

Loaded Lacquer's Innocent Until Proven Guilty

Innocent Until Proven Guilty is a clear based glitter consisting of matte pink skulls, squares and bars, holographic silver skulls and stars, matte lavender large hex, dots and stars, multi sized holographic turquoise hexagons and multi-sized silver holographic hex.

I used the polish over OPI's Amazon...Amazoff on my small, middle and index fingers.  Zoya's Vega is on my ring finger.

Loaded Lacquer's Mintallica

Mintallica is a clear based glitter consisting of multi-sized matte mint hexagons and dots, metallic gunmetal hexagons and holographic gunmetal hexagons.

I thought I would go for a jelly sandwich with Mintallica.  I used China Glaze's Keepin' it Teal as the jelly!  Not a bad combo.

#springnorules - SPRING DOTTICURE !!

Spring Dotticure is the second manicure of the Spring Thaw Nail Art Challenge!  I love my dotting tools, you can do so much with a simple dot!  I used OPI's Just Can't Cope-acabana and Essie's Mod Square & Bikini so Teeny.

 

 

 

Up next is Pastel ;)  Here is the schedule for the challenge, if you are interested...remember no rules!

OPI's Muppet's World Tour

Muppet's World Tour is from the 2014 Spring Muppet's Most Wanted collection.  It is a glitter consisting of silver micro shimmer, larger white & silver glitter and then there are larger hex glitter in silver, blue and pink.  This is one coat over a black, but I think you might be able to get it pretty opaque with a couple more coats.  This was a relatively easy glitter to work with, not a lot of glitter fishing necessary as it is very dense.

I was able to find this collection online at Sparkle Canada a relatively new store in Toronto.  Great customer service and the shipping is quick.

Beyond the Nail's Purple Micro Glitter

Here is Purple Micro Glitter from the lovely ladies over at Beyond the Nail.  As the name says it is a purple microglitter.  As with most microglitters I have, I applied 3 coats to achieve opacity and added a top coat...you could go without and get a nice sand like finish.

I am really liking this one, purple (my fav) and glitter, what more can I ask for :x

Look at the 'pink' when the light hits it just right!

I saw some new polishes from Beyond the Nail on Instagram over the weekend...soon time for some more shopping.

Beyond the Nail in Peppy Leopard

Beyond the Nail is a indie polish maker located relatively close to me, yep they are Canadian :)  With the high shipping costs and our dollar tanking internationally (it is up to a whopping .90 US) I try and shop within Canada.  I ordered 4 polishes back in December but only swatched them, as my nails were a mess.   Although I am still trying to rock the nubbins I just had to pull out this polish and wear it.  Most who know me, know that I have a thing for purple, even if it doesn't look great with my skin tone.

Peppy Leopard is a clear based glitter chocked full of purple and silver micro-glitter with pink hex glitter. Two coats and it was completely opaque and to make it more shiny I applied a coat of Seche Vite.

They are going to be at the One of Kind Spring Show & Sale in Toronto the week of March 26...might have to take a trip west to check the polishes out in person.
