Sassy Polish 50 Shades of Sassy Collection Part 1

Hi there! Hope you've had a good week so far. Today I have for you half of the 50 Shades of Sassy Collection by a new to me indie Sassy Polish. Let's jump right on it shall we?
First up we have Enlighten Me. It's a medium gray jelly polish that is full of rainbow colored flakies.


For my mani I used 3 coats of Enlighten Me and topped it with my Ellagee topcoat. It has a great formula and I absolutely LOVE that I can see the flakies thru each layer!



Next we have Lost In Lust. It's a super sexy silver that has little hexes and holographic shards thru out. It also has a light dusting of holographic glitter thrown in there as well. 


For my mani I used 3 coats of Lost In Lust, however I could have got away with only using 2 coats. I finished it off by using my Ellagee topcoat and Lost In Lust has a great formula. 


This picture is intentionally blurry so that you can see the holographic aspect of it. I'm super crazy about this macro shot of Lost In Lust! It's a great shot to show the hexes as well as the holographic shards. 


Lastly, I have Sassy Polish Roped In The Red Room. It's a clear based glitter topper that has red micro glitters, red hexes as well as holographic hearts. I'm already picturing wearing this a bunch of different ways!


For my mani I used just 2 dabbed coats of Roped In The Red Room over top of Lost In Lust. I thought that they paired perfectly together! Formula on this was just like the others, and I did have to do a little fishing to get my heart out. 



Just look at that sweet little heart!! Sassy Polish's 50 Shades Of Sassy is set to release February 1st and it is a set of 6 polishes. You can purchase them in full-size for just $7 and the minis are just $4. The ones that I'm posting in the next couple days, Lip Biter and Safe Words will be $7.50 for full-size and $4.50 for the minis. If you're just now finding out about Sassy Polish like I am, you can find her on Facebook as well as Instagram. You can find her polishes as well as her sugar scrubs in her Storenvy. I really enjoy that she offers minis as well as full size so that you can pick up a mini just to get your feet wet and see what she's all about. Like I mentioned above, I'll have the rest of the 50 Shades Of Sassy Collection up over the weekend. Until then, take care and stay warm!! XOXO

Ellagee F5! F5!

Happy hump day!!! Hope you've had a good week so far! Tonight I have for you an Ellagee Limited Edition that I'm so glad I was able to pick up! Let's take a look!
Ellagee F5! F5! was part of the shopping madness trio that Ellagee released from Black Friday until Cyber Monday. Since it was purple and holographic, I knew I had to have it! If you're familiar with refreshing a page during a nail polish restock, you will know that you have to constantly hit F5 in order to get the page to reload the fastest. I have spent countless afternoon/evenings doing that, so I thought the name was genius!! Ellagee F5! F5! is a grape purple holographic polish. The day after I put this on, I had a customer grab my hand at work and tell me how amazing this polish was! It was great to hear that someone completely unknown to indie polishes agreed with me.


For my mani I used just 2 easy breezy coats of F5! F5! and topped it off with my Ellagee topcoat. Formula and dry time on this was flawless. Unfortunately the weather here hasn't been very pleasant, so the pics that I've taken are indoors. 



If you can see all those rainbows from the holo that Ellagee put in here, just imagine how sparkly this is in the sun!! Like I mentioned above, this one is an Limited Edition, but you can find her polishes on her website. You can also find Ellagee on Facebook as well as on Instagram. You can find numerous different colors of polishes on her website as well as her topcoat. I've been using her topcoat since she sent it to me to review, and it's one of my favorites! If you do nail art, it is fast drying and it doesn't smear or have any shrinkage. I've got my eye on her newest thing to release which is lickety split latex mani mask. Can't wait to get my hands on that one! Well, that's all I've got tonight. I hope you enjoyed F5! F5! as much as I did. Make sure you go over and check out Ellagee's website and see all that she has to offer. I'll be back in a couple days with a new to me indie that I can't wait to share with you! Until then, take care!! XOXO

Shleee Polish Parasprites

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!! I hope that you had a safe and fun night last night! I stayed inside and paid some attention to my neglected nails and spent time with my family. Today I'll be sharing with you Shleee Polish Parasprites. Let's get started!
Just in case you don't know what a Parasprite is, they're these adorable tiny winged creatures that resemble an insect in an episode of My Little Pony. Just in case you're wondering what they look like, this may help.

Aren't they cute?! She captured these little Parasprites perfectly! Shleee Polish Parasprites is a rainbow of multiple size circle glitters that are set in a clear base that also has tiny little glitters in it.


For my mani I used 2 coats of Parasprites and topped it with my favorite topcoat. The formula on this was perfect! With all of the glittery goodness that's packed in here, I was prepared for it to be a thicker formula, but it wasn't. I also didn't have to put the bottle upside down like I normally do. I did use the dab method so that I could get the little Parasprites everywhere! The dry time was also very quick. 


This picture is intentionally blurry so that you can see the tiny little glitters I mentioned!


This polish is perfect in so many ways! You can use it over absolutely any color of undies, so it's super versatile. If you're a fan of MLP like we are in my house, you just have to check out Shleee Polish! She has a huge MLP polish selection over on her etsy site. You also want to make sure that you are following her on her Facebook and on Instagram so that you are up to date with her new releases. In fact, she has some new pretties releasing tomorrow. So you won't want to miss that. 
That's all I have for today. Until next time, take care!!XOXO

Simply Beautiful Kacy

Happy Sunday everyone! I hope you've had a good weekend! Tonight I'm going to be sharing with you a custom from Simply Beautiful she called Kacy. I'm kinda partial to the name LOL. Let's get started!
Simply Beautiful Kacy is in a clear base but it is full of pink holographic micro glitters. It's my favorite color, so of course I just love it!


For my mani I used 3 coats of Simply Beautiful Kacy and topped it with 2 coats of Ellagee glass topcoat. Formula was just a tad thick, but that's only because of all the glitter she has packed into it! If it is something that bothers you, you can always feel free to add just a touch of thinner to it. Dry time on Kacy was very quick!



I generally do all of my swatching at night, so I tried forever to get a good picture of all the sparkle that Simply Beautiful packed into Kacy. The above picture captures it beautifully! She has tons of other polishes over at her shop as well. She offers a very wide variety of colors, and I can't wait to pick up some more. You can also find Simply Beautiful on instagram, that's where she is most active. 
That's all I have for tonight. I'm off to watch some Sunday Night Football! Until next time, take care!! XOXO

Shleee Polish Derpy 2.0

Good evening! Hope you're having a nice weekend so far! Tonight I have for you another Shleee Polish. This one is called Derpy 2.0. This is a remake of the original Derpy Hooves that Shleee made and had a big enough interest in so she remade it. I have to say, I love it! Let's take a look!
Shleee Polish Derpy 2.0 is one of her polishes from the My Little Pony collection. Derpy 2.0 is a light bluish gray jelly that has yellow flower, heart and circle glitters. As if that wasn't enough, Shleee added a blue and purple shimmer to it as well. It matches Derpy the My Little Pony character perfectly! I only know that because my daughter is obsessed with Derpy, and I may have watched an episode or two with her. LOL.


For my mani I used just 2 coats of Derpy 2.0 and finished it with 2 coats of Digital Nails Ain't Nobody Got Time For That topcoat. Formula on Derpy 2.0 was perfect and dry time was amazing as well. Normally these murky colors look funky on me, but I really enjoyed this one! I love that the sizes of the yellow glitters aren't too big. I wasn't able to get any of the heart or flower glitter, but I promise that they're in there. 



So what do you think of Shleee Polish Derpy 2.0? I hope you love it as much as I do. If you're wondering what the original Derpy Hooves looked like, you can find Shleee Polish on Facebook and in her latest post today, it shows the 2 bottles next to one another. I love how she did this polish, I really do! She has a HUGE selection of polish on her etsy. She has an amazing amount of different MLP polishes, in fact, she just listed one earlier this week. But if MLP isn't your thing, no worries! Just yesterday she released a glitter polish that looks like something off the cover of a Lisa Frank cover. It is so fun! Just take my word for it that you need to go take a peek for yourself! She has something for absolutely everyone! I've only been getting her polishes for a little over a month, and I already have almost double digits. 
That's all I have for tonight! I hope you have a good week next week and have a very Happy Thanksgiving! Until next time, take care and I'm thankful for each and every one of you!! XOXO

Shleee Polish Princess Cadence

Happy hump day! Hope you're having a good week so far! Tonight, I'm going to be sharing with you another My Little Pony polish from Shleee Polish. This one is called Princess Cadence. Let's take a look!
Shleee Polish Princess Cadence is part of her My Little Pony Collection. If you missed my other review on Twilight Sparkle, you can find it here. Princess Cadence has an assortment of colored glitter in different size circle glitters. Not only does it have circles, it also has purple squares and pink hexes. It's put in a clear base, so it makes it super versatile to wear over any color!


For my mani I used 2 coats of Shleee Polish Princess Cadence over top of Zoya Rooney. I finished it with 2 coats of Out The Door Topcoat. Everything about this polish is perfect! The formula and dry time was impeccable. I was very impressed that I didn't have to fish for any of the larger circular glitters!!



If you're interested in finding Shleee Polish, you can find her on Facebook and etsy. I have several more of her My Little Pony polishes coming that I'll be sharing with you. My daughter is most excited about the Shleee Polish Derpy 2.0. If you're looking for Frozen inspired polishes, make sure you go check out her etsy site listed above. 
That's all I have tonight. I'm off this weekend, so I'll be back with a post sooner than this one. Until next time, take care!! XOXO

Shleee Polish Twilight Sparkle

Hi there! Hopefully you are having a good week so far. Tonight I have for you a newer indie that I haven't tried yet. Let me just start by saying that if you haven't tried any Shleee Polish, run down walk to her etsy shop. These are some of the best glitter toppers that I've used! I'll hush and let the pictures speak for themselves.
Shleee Polish Twilight Sparkle is part of her My Little Pony Collection. Twilight Sparkle has purple, pink and you can even find some blue glitters set in a clear base. There's micro glitters, squares, stars, circles, diamonds and hexes. Some of them are even holographic. Did ya get all that?! There is an excellent amount of variety in the glitter sizes that she used in Twilight Sparkle.


For my mani I used 2 coats of Sally Hansen Lacey Lilac, 2 coats of Twilight Sparkle and topped it with 2 coats of Rainbow Honey topcoat. The formula on this was perfect! Dry time was exceptionally fast too. Normally I have to let the bottle sit upside down for a little bit to help the glitters come down. This I had a nice glitter pick up each time I put the brush back in the bottle. 



If you look in my macro shot, you can even see a little yellow glitter in there! This was my first purchase from Shleee Polish, I can guarantee I'll be buying more since I've already purchased others in this My Little Pony Collection. My daughter may just be a little excited about it too! You can find Shleee Polish on Facebook and you can find her polishes on her etsy shop. She currently has over 40 different polishes that is in her shop. I'm already making my next list of ones I'm wanting to get. 
That's all I have for tonight. I'll be back soon to share some more Shleee Polishes with you. Until next time, take care!!! XOXO
