Treasures by Tan Kinky

Hello fellow polish people!
Pink Wednesdays
Here is a indie brand called Treasures by Tan.
She made a jelly holographic polish line this summer.
(click to see her store and the collection)
The prices are reasonable, $9.50 for a full size 15ml.

I thought I would give her a try and bought 3 colors.
This is Kinky.
Kinky is a sheer jelly holographic polish that reminds me 
of the Jade holos, but more sheer.
The color is a really pretty hot pink tone.
These pictures required 4-5 thin coats.
The coats dried fast, so it was not a hassle.
Especially after I added fast dry top coat.
Excuse my middle finger, I recently had a break :(

Thanks for stopping by!

Orly Elation Generation

Orly Elation Generation-3 Coats
Coral Pink jelly polish with small holographic glitters.

This is from the Orly Spring 2013 High and Freedom collection.
The other polishes I purchased from this collection were
Which I have posted about both already.

Application was easy and the glitters spread evenly in each coat.
Dry time was decent.
Wear time was good.
Overall, this is a great polish.

Thanks for stopping by!








This last picture shows its true color the best. 
Plus it matched my dress pretty well! :)

Revlon Girly

(Sorry about the fuzzy picture above)
Hey! 
I received Revlon Girly as a gift in April 
and wanted to share it.
The base of Revlon Girly is a bit lighter pink than I like.
So, I used China Glaze Dance Baby, 2 coats, as a base.
I layered 1 coat of Revlon Girly over that.
I then added 2 layers of top coat.
I like the result.
My favorite thing about Girly is the accent
 small pink glitters with the medium purple glitters.
You can find Revlon Girly at most places that sell Revlon.
Thanks for stopping by!

China Glaze Dance Baby & Candy Lacquer Block Party

 Hey! Here is a fabulous pink creme polish by China Glaze.
China Glaze Dance Baby is a light bubble pink creme 
polish that leans more towards the blue side than the red side.
 Super girly, very cute.
This is 2 coats with an accent of Candy Lacquer Block Party. 
Block Party is a rainbow multi colored
 square glitter polish in a clear base.
Love both of the polishes for obvious reasons. 
I wore Dance Baby on my toes for a while too.
Dance Baby is from the Spring 2012 China Glaze Electropop collection.
You could probably find this color online. I found it at a beauty supply. 
Candy Lacquer has a website as well http://candylacquer.bigcartel.com/
However, I believe the store is closed at the time 
and will re-open at a later time.

Thanks for stopping by!

Glitter Gal Dark Purple 3D Holo and Fairy

Hey again!
Here is a girly girl manicure for you to see.
The sun finally came out,
 so I wanted to try some holos that I haven't worn.
Glitter Gal Dark Purple 3D Holo with Color Club Miss Bliss.

3 coats were needed for Dark Purple 3D Holo 
and 2 coats for Miss Bliss.
I love both.
The formula on them is different.
Dark Purple 3D Holo is more like a jelly holo with scattered holographic effect.
Miss Bliss is like a metallic holo with a strong linear effect. 

Both hold a place in my heart :)

I added a nail decal that I had custom made over Miss Bliss.

You can purchase Glitter Gal at...
or 
or
Amazon.com
or
Ebay.com

The color club holos can be purchased at...
or
Amazon.com
or 
Ebay.com

Above you can see the image better of the cute fairy.

Isn't this a pretty color?
Its a unique red toned purple, like a magenta eggplant purple.
It deserves to be in any holographic lover's collection.

Thanks for stopping by!

Claire's Candy Shop

Claire's Candy Shop (3 coats)
2 coats of Top Coat

Hey! Here is a pink polish for Pink Wednesdays.
This polish is sooooo full of glitter!
I put 3 coats so the base coat would cover more of the nail line.
There was enough glitter in the first coat.
I would suggest using a base coat of a pink color then
adding this on the top if you don't like this much glitter.
The more I wear pink, the more I see it is not my color.
*sad face*
I love pink though!

It is a dupe for Deborah Lippman's Candy Shop.
It is the pink version of China Glaze It's a Trap-eze.

Thanks for stopping by!

KBShimmer Cotton Candy

KBShimmer Cotton Candy (2 coats)
over
Sation Just Lilac That (2 coats)
Top coat

Hey there. Here is my Pink Wednesday manicure. 
As usual, I am trying to wear my long list of untried nail polishes.
I don't really care for the tone of the pink in the base of the KBShimmer Cotton Candy, 
so I tried to lighten it up by layering it over Sation Just Lilac That.
Personally, I do not like the polish on me.
 I like the idea of the glitters together, just not on me.

Sation Just Lilac That is a pretty cream polish in a very pale pink purple shimmer color.
I really like it. You can see a picture of it alone below.




Here is my LOTD.
I used the Urban Decay Glinda Palette
and followed the directions on the card that came with it.

Amethyst Pattern Skittle

Hey there! I didn't have much time to go all out on this manicure to participate in the Crumpet's Nail Challenge. So, this is the results of 5 different purples topped with Pure Ice Busted.
From thumb to pinkie-Essie Blanc, Pure Ice New Lilac (Frost Light Purple), Color Club Pucci-licious (blue tinted lavender creme), e.l.f purple, China Glaze Virtual Violet (scattered holo deep purple).

The reason I didn't have much time was my only daughter turns 8 this weekend. She had friends over and we did a party at the house then to the arcade and played games and bumper cars.
Then I opened all those toys that break fingernails...and broke my pointer nail. Grrr!
Oh well...


Thanks for stopping by!

Glitzology Cupid's Arrow


Glitzology Cupid's Arrow (1 coat dabbed on)
over 
Wet and Wild Tickled Pink (2 coats)
Geleous (2 coats)
Top coat (1 coat)

Hey! Quick manicure in the spirit of
 Valentine's Day and Pink Wednesdays.
I wasn't crazy about the end result. 
But, it was cute enough to wear for the day :)

Glitzology describes this polish...
"This polish is inspired by one of my favorite holidays. Valentine's Day! Even though I was inspired by Valentine's Day, doesn't mean you can't wear this gorgeous color year round! It features a mix of pink and magenta glitters, with pale pink satin hexes, red squares and hexes, magenta shreds, and pink and pale pink hearts!"

Thanks for stopping by!

I just broke my pointer finger nail, excuse the nub.

Close up shot.
See all the pretty glitters?!

Deborah Lippmann Sweet Dreams


Deborah Lippmann Sweet Dreams (2 coats)
Top coat (1 coat)

Hello, let me introduce you to my new favorite pink polish. 
This is my first Deborah Lippmann, 
thanks to a nice girl named Julia that had a blog sale. 
I paid her on Friday night and had it in my hands by Monday! 
Talk about a great seller!
 I bought this beauty, Hits Flamenco and Ciate Jewel.
 I will show you those 2 soon.

Anyways back to the jewel of my Wednesday.
Sweet Dreams is a hot pink jelly polish packed full of golden flakies. 
I knew I was going to like it. But, I didn't know the formula was going to make me love it. 2 coats was great and the flakes were very abundant. 
And after 3 days of working with my hands, no chips!
 I did have to take it off to give my other babies some love, lol.
This polish reminds me of a manicure I wore about a year ago.
China Glaze Strawberry Fields with flakies on top. 
I will show you that at the end of this post.





And below is a manicure I wore back when I had fake nails.
China Glaze Strawberry Fields 
and the bottom one I added flakies, I think it was one Finger Paints.

Please excuse my dry cuticles.
 I was ignorant to the ways of cuticle oil last year.
So, if you can't afford DL-Sweet Dreams. 
This combo is a good substitute.
Thanks for reading!

Ninja Polish Strawberries 'n Roses

Ninja Polish Strawberries 'n Roses (1 coat)
over
Color Club Hot Like Lava (1 coat)
with
Top coat (3 coats)

Hey!
It's Pink Wednesday and I have a wonderful glitter pink polish
to share with you.
 Ninjapolish.com sent me this baby as a surprise gift for a small favor
 I had done for her.
I am so thankful :)
 I have been eyeing this new polish and was excited to wear it.
I decided to layer it over a similar shade by Color Club called Hot Like Lava.
Hot Like Lava is from the Color Club Fall 2011 Foiled Collection. 
It is a hot pink silver metallic polish that has a great formula.

Ninja Polish Strawberries 'n Roses is a new polish
in the Ninja Polish Bling! Collection.
I have all of them and suggest
 you do the same, if you are a glitter polish lover.

Here is how Ninja Polish describes their product...
"Strawberries 'n Roses is from Ninja Polish's Bling! collection. This polish contains fine rose colored pink glitters as well as highlights of holographic gold. The hint of gold in this pink polish gives an amazingly unique look. The glitters are in a clear base and cover fully in approximately 3 coats. This polish looks great in regular lighting and explodes in holographic goodness in the sun."


It is cloudy here in Atlanta, so I did not get to take any pictures of  Strawberries 'n Roses to show of the holographic accents. I did take a flash picture that shows a bit of it below.

I had to put 3 coats of top coat to achieve
 super smoothness and a great shine.
