♥ La Couleur Couture Summer Collection - Part 1 ♥

Thursday, August 29, 2013
Hi everyone! Today's post is on the La Couleur Couture (LaCC) Summer Collection part 1! There are 12 beautiful shades in this collection. Today i'm showing you 6 of them!
All of these have AMAZING formulas.  They apply flawlessly like butter. 
For each of my swatches I used the long lasting base coat in 2012 and the fast drying top coat in 2013.  The topcoat is super shiny and drys completely in about 30 seconds!

1945
A bright cherry red creme. Opaque in 2 coats. This is one of my favorites from the whole collection!

1960
A pink toned red creme. 2 coats! This photographed much more neon than it really is.

1950
Gorgeous pink creme.  2 coats for this.  Once again this photographed a little bit more neon than it is in real life. 

1957
A delicate pale pink with very subtle silver glitters.  This one was a little less pigmented and took 3 coats to cover VNL.  


1964 
Bold burnt orange creme.  2 coats to opacity.

1963
Orange creme with coral undertones. So gorgeous! 2 coats. 

Overall, this part of the collection was amazing! A lot of gorgeous colors and wonderful formulas.  You can pick all these up at laccbeauty.com!
Thanks for reading and stay tuned for part two!


♥ KBShimmer 'Lottie Dottie' & 'Where My Peeps At' ♥

Saturday, July 6, 2013
Happy Saturday! I have 2 KBShimmer polishes to show you today! They are from the Spring 2013 Collection! I got them for Easter and i'm just now getting to try them!  I absolutely love KBShimmer's, their one of my favorite indie brands.  You can purchase both of these polishes here! 

So I don't have to be repetitive, I applied 3 coats and top coat for both polishes.

Lottie Dottie has a white crelly base with blue and fuchsia circles, and micro bars and hexes! Formula was amazing and i had no problem with the glitters. I didn't even have to dab!


Where My Peeps At has a yellow crelly base with fuchsia, red, green, blue, yellow, and pink circles, and micro hexes in those colors also.  Formula was exactly like Lottie Dottie.  This polish was inspired by Peeps the candy and it makes me want to eat my nails!

♥ Laquerlicious July 4th, 1776 Collection ♥

Monday, June 17, 2013
Today I have 2 polishes from the July 4th, 1776 Collection to share with you!  First off, let me start by saying how much I love these polishes! The formulas were amazing and they are absolutely gorgeous!
Both of these polishes are available on the Laquerlicious Etsy Shop!
 
America's Birthday is a rich shimmery denim blue with red, blue, and silver micro glitter.  A few silver hologram micro bars and a few silver medium hex glitter are scattered throughout.  Like I said, the formula of this was perfection!  2 coats covered most VNL (visible nail line) but I did a 3rd coat just incase and then applied 1 coat of top coat.

Fireworks & Freedom is a glitter bomb in a clear, slightly tinted red/pink base packed with different sizes and shapes of red, blue and silver glitters.  And all of them are holographic! I layered 1 coat of F&F over top of white and applied 1 coat of topcoat.  I had no trouble with applying this, the glitter didn't stick together and it applied evenly on my nail!

♥ Ciaté Sunday : Week 1 ♥

Sunday, June 2, 2013
 Today is the first Sunday of Ciaté Sunday!  I have 5 Ciaté's to show you today. Let's get into it!

This bright yellow is called 'Big Yellow Taxi'. The formula was pretty bad.  It streaked easily but 3 careful coats covered bald spots and VNL (visual nail line).  Gorgeous color though!


Next is 'Glass Slipper'.  A gorgeous blue glitter topper.  I layered one coat over Big Yellow Taxi.  The formula was great, very easy to work with.


 'Dangerous Affair' is a vampy blood red jelly.  Formula was like butter. Amazing!  3 coats covered VNL. 


'Cupcake Queen' is a bright pink with hints of subtle blue reflects.  Formula was similar to Dangerous Affair. 2 coats gave me full coverage. 

 
 These caviar beads are named 'Candy Shop'.  I love these colors together!  Adorable.  I paired them with Cupcake Queen.


 Thanks so much for reading! Stay tuned for next Sunday where i'll have 5 more Ciaté shades to show you!  Have a great day!
