Celestial Cosmetics We Breathe Fire Collection

*Press Sample.

Hi there everyone!! Today I have the new collection from Celestial Cosmetics to share with you today.

We breathe Fire collection is a combo of 6 beautiful polishes all representing different dragons from the Inheritance Cycle (Eragon) books. 

I have 5 to share with you today.

I really liked the colour palette in this collection, really warm autumn colours.

So lets check them out!

Glaedr- Is a bronze/copper holographic polish. I use 2 coats for opacity. There were flakies also in the polish which can be seen in the shade. Personally, flakies in holo polishes is a love hate thing with me. I love how they give the polish character in the shade but i hate how they break up and effect the holographic effect in the sun. What i would call a linear holo is not as much with flakies in it. But the polish is still a pretty amazing and unique colour.

Jarnunvosk- this is a creamy nude holo polish with gold flakies and a gold shimmer. I really liked the end look of this polish, I also found that 3 thin coats was better than 2 thicker coats.

Pretty Serious Cosmetics Type 40 Swatches

*Press Sample.

Hi there everyone!

I've posted my pics most places but totally realised I'd not actually blogged this polish!!!!! *facepalm*  So today I'm sharing the Pretty Serious Cosmetics Type 40 polish. I loved that PSC released this colour, That special blue box is one of the things I remember from my childhood and as I have grown up, I have been lucky enough to share my love of Doctor Who with my daughters,

I have been to the original Doctor who museum in Llanglollen north Wales back in 1999 (my hubby family are from Llanglollen so it was one of the first places he took me!!) and When we re visited the UK in 2009 I took my daughter to the new Doctor who museum. Here are a few pics ;)

Zoe was SOOO little then!!!!!! she still loves doctor Who and watches it all the time!!!!

Shes been to comic con as the TARDIS as well as going out in her Black milk TARDIS Slouchy!!!

We even had a TARDIS Gingerbread house this year for christmas... 

So lets get on with checking out Type 40!!!!

It is a amazing blue which you only need one coat. I used 2 but I did not really need it!

As you can see with this polish a slightly different light source changes the colour completely I tried so hard but could not get 2 photos the same!!! and for me that's no something that usually happens to me!!

All I can say is the polish is perfect. And I went and brought 2 more bottles after my Press Sample arrived!!!

You can still purchase from Pretty Serious Cosmetics for $9.95 a bottle

Until next time.....

OPI Infinite Shine Polish Road test.

Hi there everyone!
Today I wanted to share the OPI infinite shine polish series,
The idea of this polish range is to provide a hard wearing polish range that will give clients up to 14 days wear.I purchased the base and top coat plus one colour to road test.

I read the instructions and applied a layer of base coat, then 2 coats of colour and finally a single layer of top coat. I did notice that the base coat took a little while to dry, while the top coat dried super fast.

Here is Day One.

Day Three- After the first 3 days I noticed a small amount of tip wear on 2 nails. this was it. the only other thing I noticed was the top coat was not as shiny as it was on day 1.

Day Five- By day 5 I had more tip wear and I also noticed some wear on other parts of my nail. Not a great deal but it was starting to bug me.

Day Eight-  So I totally forgot to take a picture before I removed the polish. But I ended up with even more tip wear. At no time did I actually get any chips which for me was amazing!!!!
For most people I think they would get 2 weeks of wear from this collection. For me the tip wear annoyed me way too much as I am so use to changing my polish every day!

You can purchase  Infinite Shine polishes at International beauty supply for wholesale purchase.

Until next time.......
