#30DaysofColourChallenge - WINTER COLOUR

This is a month long swatch challenge for September.  A different manicure every day!

I think that anything dark is Winter appropriate.  I chose this, new to me, polish and it is aEngland's Beauty Never Fails. It is a lovely vampy green, gold and copper combo.

#30DaysofColourChallenge - FALL COLOUR

This is a month long swatch challenge for September.  A different manicure every day!

This is Avon's Saturn and it's a burnt orange with scattered holographic through out.  I achieved opacity with 2 coats.  I think this is the ultimate Fall colour!

#30DaysofColourChallenge - MATTE

This is a month long swatch challenge for September.  A different manicure every day!

This is the lovely Zoya's Savita.  Not only is is matte, but it's my favourite colour!!  It is a medium purple with some shimmer.  Two easy coats and it was completely opaque.

Zoya's Godiva

I thought I would cleanse my palate for the upcoming #summernorules nail art challenge! I chose Zoya's Godiva, a Pixie Dust from early 2013.  It is a textured nude/beige that is rather sheer, achieving opacity with 3 coats.  I love the sparkle :)

Zoya's Savita

I'm back!  Sorry for being MIA, but 'life' kind of got in the way of my Polish Obsession!

I have had Savita for over 6 months, it has been hidden in the little black box it came in...duh!  The box was so pretty I thought I would just leave it there and not put it with my other pretties.  Anyway, it is a beauty.

Savita is part of Zoya’s Matte Velvet Collection which they re-released this Fall.  It is a satin matte purple with a slight shimmer.  Two coats and it was completely opaque!

So happy to be back blogging and what a way to re-start then with my favourite colour!!

#summernorules - ICE CREAM

While ice cream is good, I much prefer sherbet.  My favourite is Blue Rasberry Sherbet from Baskin-Robbins.

Blue Skies is a creamy pastel blue crelly-based polish with blue, grey and white multi-sized glitter.  What a fun Spring/Summer polish and somewhat similar to my fav sherbert!!

Ka-Pow from FInger Paints

Ka-Pow is a clear based glitter consisting of  black, white, dark pink and light pink hex glitter.  Another fun glitter that I put over Essie's Bikini So Teeny.

A little placement was necessary, but worth it!!

Three's a Party from Finger Paints

Three's a Party is part of the 2014 Pop Movement Summer collection. It is a clear based glitter consisting of dark peach, red, 2 different coloured blues, yellow and pink hex glitters.  I applied it over OPI's Where Did Suzi's Man-go?

Love this glitter, such a unique colour combo...but it somehow works ;)

Beyond the Nail's Spring Blue

Spring Blue is a pretty pastel blue creme.  This is a great formula for a pastel and only 2 coats for opacity.

You can find Beyond the Nail's Etsy store here.  Also check them out on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram.

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.

 

If you are looking for some unique and high quality glitter that is easy to work with, I would recommend taking a look at Loaded Lacquer.  They can be found here.
