Naild'it Dandelion

First, this is my second post of the day. Please check out my last post HERE, where I was the featured as the Blogger of the Month over at xoxoalexisleigh.

On to today's post of Naild'it Dandelion. I purchased this polish a bit back, and I finally got around to using it today. 

If you are not familiar with Naild'it, you can find Andrea's polishes on Etsy HERE. Her shop name over at Etsy is 'andeevie'. She is a super sweet lady and her polishes are true genius. Every time she creates anything new, it's a must have for my Indie collection.

Today I have Dandelion. Originally I wanted to do this over green, but that seems too 'summerish' to me. Yes, 'summerish' as in too summer like haha. Today is September 1st plus Hurricane Isaac is above us and making things dark and gloomy, so I went with a more 'dark' and gloomy look. 

This is 2 coats of Wet n Wild Black, layered with 2 coats of Dandelion. I actually did not thin this one, and the formula was just fine. The Glitters are super pretty in this. It contains small white hex glitter, white bar glitter, medium yellow hex glitter, and large white Hex glitter. There is also a small amount of darker small hex glitter, but because I layered over black those will not show this manicure.

I'm super happy with this manicure, and I was able to give it a Fall touch (less summerish lol) by layering it over black. 

I haven't added a Matte Top Coat on a manicure in a while, so today I changed that! I really like to Matte black manicures. I used Hard Candy's Matte Top Coat for this. 

Thanks for visiting guys. I hope everyone remained safe and well during Isaac. 

Also, don't forget that The Polish Hoochie has joined FACEBOOK, so come visit me there too :)

Blogger of the Month .....

Evening everyone! I hope everyone is having a safe and happy Friday. Hurricane Isaac has effected so many people in the last several days. He was here all day today in Missouri, and is creating flooding and lots of Tornado Watches/Warnings for the evening. If you are in his path, please be safe!

On to today's post... I wanted to share this with you all. Not to long ago Alexis from 

approached me about featuring me as Blogger of the Month on her blog for September. How exciting!!! I can not tell you how flattered I was by this.  Here is the Link to the BOTM post featuring none other than ME lol :)

Thanks again Alexis! You made my weekend :)

Dollish Polish Go Luigi

Tonight is the last polish in my Dollish Polish Mario Swatch Marathon. I'm so sad it's at the end! If you would like to see the whole Dollish Polish Mario collection click HERE.

This one is a CRAZY AMAZING polish. My jaw dropped when I saw how it was turning out. I want to marry this bottle of polish :P 

I started out with 2 coats of Milani Key West. This polish is a must have for ever collection.The shimmer is so kick butt on this lol. I tried to capture the shimmer and these pics do not do it justice. Multiple the shiny holiness x 1000. The color was a tough one to photograph too. It's a tad more greenish blue. It started like this...

The glitters are so bright and sparkly. It has GORGEOUS green and blue hex glitters, with star glitter scattered throughout.

The pictures speak for themselves...

I did have to place the star glitters, but they easy stuck to the brush with a quick stir here and there. 

If you don't like the star glitters you can easy leave them out. This reminded me of a mermaid nails.

Thank so much for following along with me each evening for the last week. I had a blast swatching these all. I hope you guys all enjoyed it as much as I did.

Dollish Polish Wicked Wario

Evening everyone :) I hope everyone is having a nice evening, and for those of you who are in the path of Hurricane Isaac my prayers are with you and your families to stay safe. 

Also, we are SOOOOO close to 400 followers here. That means it is almost giveaway time!!! Stay tuned for that...

I also wanted to thank all the many new followers I picked up on ThePolishHoochie Facebook page. I'm loving showing you guys nail mail and much more there.

Tonight we are at the second to the last polish in the Dollish Polish Mario Collection Swatch Marathon! It's coming close to the end of this swatchaton.

Tonight is Wicked Wario! I have this thing about layering purple glitters over green. It really makes the deep purples pop with excitement. This is 2 coats of Essie Mojito Madness with 2 coats of Wicked Wario.

The glitters in this are super pretty, there is super fine purple and green micro glitter, white square glitter and gold hex glitter. I love the touch of gold in this one. These colors remind me of Mardi Gras. How fun is that?!

Wario was my favorite character in the Mario Games lol.  This is really one of my favorites in this collection as well. Can you say LOVE:) 

I did have to place the white glitters, but they easily stuck to the brush with stirring. I didn't want too many of them on the nail, but you can add more of course. I love how these polishes (depending on base color choice and thickness of application) have a unique look on each person.

This one was so sparkly on the nail. I hate to have to take this off so soon. 

Thanks so much for visiting! Stay tuned for tomorrow night and the final polish in the series!
