Joss polishes- Colour Illusions collection- swatches and review.


Hello there everyone,

Today I have f 5 polishes to share from the Joss Colour Illusions Collection which were sent to me by the lovely Ray over at Beauty World Now for most you Beauty would may not be a name you know, but for us Indie polish makers we frequent Beauty World quite a bit to get an array of supplies for our polish making.
But  Beauty World not only sells glitters and polish making supplies they also sell other beauty related products as well. One of the great ranges they have is their polish collections. Joss have holographic polishes for a little as AUD$9.95 and also glitter polishes from AUD $6.95. I have 5 to share from their glitters with you today!

*please note at all colours were 2-3 coats with a Seche Vite top coat.

In a Mermaids Dream (JC783)- This is a beautiful bright blue that is packed full of holographic and iridescent glitters plus what i can only describe as a green to pink shift. It was really hard to capture the colour shift with in the blue but be assured it is their and this polish totally is a million times more holo that i could also capture!

You can just see the shift in the shade pic. Coverage was easy and the wear was great. i had this on for 3 days before removing it and all i has was a little shrinkage from the Seche Vite.

A Calming Influence (JC782)- This is a lovely lavender jammed packed with holo glitter. I really fell for this colour BIG time! i'm not a huge fan of paler colours but this was just awesome on. Only 2 coats were needed and boy did it sparkle when i went in the sun! I did note a small amount of settling with this polish but i was assured by Ray that this is totally normal with these polishes. and after a bit of a shake the polish was fine.

Amazing...right??!!

In a Violet Haze (JC780)- Is a what i could only describe as a white/silver holo glitter packed polish with a very distinct purple to green colour shift. This i think is another favorite of mine in this collection of Joss Lacquers. 3 coats were needed for full coverage. Again the pics don't do the polish justice. it was SOOOO sparkly on it was insane.

And as i loved the last 2 polishes so much i decided to do a gradient mani with them.

Desert Sunset (JC779)- Is a copper/gold polish packed again full of glitter that has a gold/red shift to it. the polish is so hard to describe. and once again so very hard to capture in photos. i notices a small amount of settling in this polish also but once i had given it a little shake all was well and i applied 2 coats for full coverage. I tried to capture the different colours this polish produces as best i could with shade and sun shots.

Magic Potion (JC781)- Is a very festive green, tho im sure i will wear this at other times too. It is packed full of holo glitter again and I only needed 2 coats. I really like this colour for Christmas!

 For the price of AUD$6.95 these polishes are certainly worth every penny. There are over 20 different Joss lacquers to choose from on the BEAUTY WORLD website, from these glitters, to holographic polishes.
BEAUTY WORLD ship Australia wide currently, but if you love overseas you can head on over to LLarowe and she ships world wide.

Until next time.......

OPI Haven't the Foggiest Swatch and Review


Hi there everyone! 
Id like to share with you today a cute OPI polish from the San Francisco Collection.

OPI Haven't the Foggiest is a really nice silver foil. i found with 2 coats it was opaque and even with a good top coat of Seche Vite the foil looks great and did not crack or craze. I have not tried it to stamp with yet but i think this will be on my list to try.
 All pics were taken under artificial light with a cool daylight globe. 







This polish has been great for undies on a fair few polishes lately.

You can purchase OPI from may places including COLOR 4 NAILS who ship world wide. You can also purchase from PRO NAIL SUPPLY in Bankstown NSW. if you are a sydneysider.

Until next time.....

Aussie Nails Monday Picture polish,Alanna Renee and MCKFresh Nail Attire



Happy AN Monday everyone!
Today the aussie indie theme was black, white, silver, gold or anything metallic. I had a good hunt through my stash  and found a aussie indie in gold, silver and black.
Lets get on with it shall we??

First up is Picture Polish Starry Night. This is a beautiful black jelly with tiny holographic/silver micro "shards"through it. I used a base coat or Orly Bonder then 3 coats of Starry Night and a top coat of SV.



After finishing this i thought... why not use Picture Polish G'day Matte on top!



I really like how it gives a whole different look to the polish!!!

So next up is a silver polish by MCKFresh Nail Attire. Laser Pointers is a really strong silver polish with tiny little micro bars in it that catch the light i certain angles. I used base coat and then 3 coats of the polish and of course a SV top coat.



Last up is Alanna Renee Golden Snitch.
With this polish i used a base coat then 3 coats with a top coat of SV.



All these are great aussie brands. 
so where to find them??  you can pick up Picture Polish from their website and dont forget to check out their everyday deals on polish. Picture Polish ship with in australia and they also have a link to all their e-tailers that ship outside of OZ. 

MCKFresh Nail Attire can be purchased from her etsy shop and please make sure you check out her links for outside australia sellers also.

And lastly Alanna Renee can be purchased from her website and also if you check out her links you can find where you can purchase outside australia.

So until next time.....
