Picture Polish 'Ocean' - Swatches & Review

Today I have a gorgeous blue to show you! Picture Polish 'Ocean' is a collaboration shade between Kelly's Kolors and Picture Polish. Ocean has a turquoise jelly base with scattered holo flake particles.

These swatches show 3 coats plus topcoat. Formula was great - no problems at all. This shade is inspired by Kelly's love of the ocean and The Beatles.

This polish is so pretty, it really does sparkle like the ocean! I love the depth that the holo flakes give. Picture Polish is available at Llarowe, Harlow & Co, Picture Polish and Overall Beauty.

Thanks so much for viewing my post, hope you enjoyed it! xx

Crows Toes & Elevation Polish Collaboration 'Too F*%#ing Hot & Too F*%#ing Cold' - Swatches and Review

Elevation Polish and Crows Toes are two of my favourite indie nail polish brands so I was excited to see they were working together to create this duo - Too F*%#ing Hot & Too F*%#ing Cold. Love the names too!

The following are the official descriptions, just because they describe them better than I could! 'Too F*%#ing Hot- is a deep red jelly-shimmer with both black and red medium/large flake shimmer; Too F*%#ing Cold- is a blue tinted glitter topper with a complex blend of holographic & iridescent glitters.'

I actually ended up liking this duo even more than I thought I would - I love how the iridescent glitters look against the red.  The formula was great, I used three coats of Too effin hot and two coats of Too effin cold, though you could get away with two and one.  

I think Too effin cold would look great over a variety of colours so I look forward to trying that out!  I purchased these from Llarowe and they're still in stock.  Pretty sure they aren't going to be around for long though, so if you do want them best to grab them sooner than later! :)

Thanks for reading xx

Cadillacquer 'Dark Defender' - Swatches and Review

By now I'm sure you've all heard of the gorgeous Swiss indie brand - Cadillacquer.  They create absolutely amazing polishes, and their glitter combos always work pefectly together.  The following polish is from the Dexter Collection, and its called 'The Dark Defender'.

Dark Defender is described as 'a dark teal jelly base with light green and purple micro flakies' which is pretty much on the money.  This polish is pretty much a teal lovers dream!  The flakies work perfectly with the base and are nice and visible.

Make sure you enlarge the pics so you can see the full awesomeness of this polish, its definitely a new favourite of mine!

This bottle shot really shows how amazing the Dark Defender is, and (just in case you need a bit of enabling) just think, when the current and final Dexter season ends, you're going to need a pretty new polish to console yourself - and what better than one inspired by the man himself? :P 

I purchased this from Llarowe (where it is currently still in stock) but it is also available from Cadillacquer's Etsy Store.  Worldwide shipping is available from both sites.
