Savoie Artisan Lacquer Review Part 2

Happy Monday to you guys!! I hope yours went better than mine did. It just sucked royally. But at least my nails looked good right?! LOL. Tonight I have for you my 2nd part of my review for Savoie Artisan Lacquer. I've received so many compliments on her polishes from customers at my work it has been crazy. So if complete strangers say it's a good thing, you have to believe them right? Alrighty, here we go!
Formula on these were spot on as always. I used 2 coats of each followed up with 1 coat of KBShimmer Clearly On Top Topcoat. Dry time on these were pretty amazing as well. I'll stop talking and show you the pictures since I think they speak for themselves!



First up we have Mother of Pearl. She is a magnificent silvery white pearlescent polish that has scattered holographic glitter in it. It looks like I have shimmering snow on my finger tips. This is so gorgeous, the pictures honestly don't do it any justice. 



Secondly we have The Queen. She is fit for a queen with how gorgeous she is! The Queen is a purple holographic polish. The color on this is so rich, it was absolutely amazing!! 




Lastly but certainly not least, I have Disco Ball. This is a silver glitter topper that is loaded with holographic glitters and micro glitters. I used 1 coat of this over top of Mother of Pearl and I Lilac It Lac It. I look at this absolutely AMAZING polish like Frank's Hot Sauce. I'll put that s*&t on EVERYTHING!!! It looks like I have diamonds on my fingernails doesn't it?! It doesn't get much ether than this! There literally isn't a color in the rainbow that this wouldn't look good over. I've never bought a back up bottle of any polish, but this one will be a must have in the large size. Like I said above, formula was perfect for all of them. 
Savoie Artisan Lacquer is a brand new indie, so please make sure you go and show her some love over on her Facebook page. With the holidays fast approaching, make sure you stop over by her shop and pick up some of her goodies. If you're not a polish fan, which I don't know why you wouldn't be LOL, she offers other things as well. 
Well that's all for tonight. I'm off to try and get warm. I hope that y'all have an awesome Thanksgiving and be safe if you are traveling. Until next time, take care!! XOXO

Savoie Artisan Lacquer Review Part 1

Hi guys! I hope you are warm and cozy where you are tonight. It's very chilly where I am. Tonight, I have for you a brand spankin new indie!! I know the mastermind behind Savoie and she is an absolute doll!! She is super awesome and makes some pretty amazing polish!! As you hopefully noticed, this will be broken into 2 parts. I will show you 3 tonight, and the next 3 this weekend. Ok, here we go!!!

I'll get the basic info out of the way first. The formula on each and every one of these polishes were perfect! Dry time was very fast and I only needed 2 coats for each, but out of habit I applied 3. I topped them all off with 1 coat of KBShimmer Clearly On Top Topcoat. Now on to the good stuff, the pictures…..


This is Briar Rose. She is a beautiful magenta pink jelly that is packed full of holographic glitter. This is so squishy and beautiful I find it amazing!



This one is with the flash, and it REALLY shows just how sparkly it is! 


Next we have So Sentamintal. This is a bright mint green that has some shimmer in it as well. This color reminds me of mint chocolate chip ice cream. Normally I'm not a green fan, but this one I really enjoyed! 



Again, this is with the flash and you can see just how gorgeous this color is. 


Lastly, I have I Lilac It Lac It. I can not tell you enough how much I LOVE this color! Out of my whole polish collection, I don't own anything like this. It is a gorgeous lilac pearlescent purple. Depending on the lighting, this will also transform into silver. It also has shimmer in it. 



Isn't it perfect?! I think these are perfect going into the holidays. You know when you get polishes, you think to yourself this one is my favorite. Out of these, I honestly couldn't pick just one. They are all beautiful! All of Savoie's polishes are 3 free, and she makes other goodies as well as polish. You can find her on Facebook as well as her shop on Storenvy. Make sure you go show her some love and let her know just how amazing her polishes are! These also make perfect gifts for the holidays. 
That's it for tonight ladies! I'm off to get warm, and I'll be seeing you all very soon! Until then, take care!! XOXO

Colors by Llarowe Twinkle Twinkle Little Star

Hi ladies! I hope Monday treated you well. Other than ending my day with a migraine that will put me in bed soon, it was a fairly calm day. Tonight I have Twinkle Twinkle Little Star from none other than Colors by Llarowe. I missed out on this polish during her pre order and I was so upset. I saw it up for sale in one of the groups I'm in, so I knew that I had to snatch it up! If you haven't seen this beauty yet, you're in for a real treat!!


Twinkle Twinkle Little Star is a dark navy blue jelly that is absolutely LOADED with silver micro glitters. Formula and everything was absolutely perfect on this polish. It's so squishy and yummy looking, I just love it. Did I say I loved it?! 




Yesterday I was getting a crap ton of storms, so I didn't have the advantage of the sun. But even in my indoor lighting, it is stunning! I used 2 coats of Twinkle Twinkle Little Star and just 1 coat of KBShimmers Clearly On Top Topcoat. The formula on this couldn't have been any better! Even while I was at work today, I couldn't help buy stare at my nails. Llarowe is getting ready to release some new colors, so you need to check out her Facebook page. Since I know that y'all will want some of her pretties, you can just click here and it'll take you right to her shop. That's all I have for tonight. I'll be back very soon with another awesome polish to share with you. Until then, take care!! XOXO

Zoya Matte Velvet Collection

Hi guys! I hope you're doing well! We got a couple inches of snow where I am. I have a real treat for you guys tonight!
This past week, Zoya released the Matte Velvet Collection again. If you don't have any of these, you're really missing out. I'm usually not a huge matte polish fan, but I thoroughly enjoyed these! I'll show you and you can be the judge yourself.


The green is Veruschuka, the rose in the middle is Harlow and the purple is Savita. I have a couple others, but decided on these 3 for tonight's mani. 


I used 2 coats of Savita for the base color. The first coat was very streaky, which can be normal with some matte polishes. The second coat leveled everything out perfectly. For my top coat, I used Cult Nails Wax That. I can't tell you how much I love this color. I plan on wearing this purple A LOT!!! For the dots, I used 1 coat of Harlow and 1 coat of Veruschuka. 


I paid a lot of money for these from a blog sale, lucky for you though you don't have to! Zoya decided to bring these back for a little bit. If you want these, I wouldn't wait and head over to Zoya's web page and pick them up. Right now they're only $9 which is way better than I paid! Make sure that you also follow them on their Facebook page. They are always having great deals going on. 
Well, that is all I have for tonight. My husband decided to surprise us and come home for the night, so I'm off to enjoy him being home. I'll have something to share with you guys soon. Make sure you check back!! Until then, take care!! XOXO

KBShimmer When the Doves Sigh

Hi guys! I'm sure by now you've been noticing some of the indies are coming out with their holiday collections. KBShimmer came out with hers, and I'm in love as usual! I have a couple indies that I call my favorites, and I'm sure y'all know that she's right up there! Tonight I'll be sharing with you When the Doves Sigh. I had to cut all of my nails back due to some breakage, so I'm in the process of them growing back out. Here we go!!!


When the Doves Sigh has a gorgeous gray base and is absolutely LOADED with magenta, turquoise and blue glitter. There are all different types of shapes in this polish. Including, squares, circles, hexes, micro glitter and mini bar glitter. Boy, that was a mouth full! Normally I steer clear of polish with bar glitter, but this one and I got along just fine. 



For my mani I used 3 coats and topped it with 1 coat of gelous to make sure all the glitters were covered. To finish it off, I used my normal KBShimmer Clearly On Top Topcoat. Formulation was perfect as usual with KBShimmer polishes. I can't say enough how much I love this polish! I think the colors look absolutely amazing together. I'd love to see When the Doves Sigh in some polish jewelry. Since I know y'all will want some, make sure you stop over to KBShimmer's webpage. You can also find her on Facebook
I hope you guys enjoyed this review as much as I enjoyed this polish. I'll be back soon with something else to share with you guys! Until next time, take care!! XOXO
