The Moon Sees Me

Most of you know that I absolutely LOVE moons, as you can see it's part of my logo here at The Polish Hoochie, so I'm a total sucker for polishes that have moon shaped glitters. This polish is no exception. Today, I have The Moon Sees Me by Trelly's M.I.S.C.

This is 2 coats of MAC Blue Gaze with two dabbed on coats of The Moon Sees Me. This polish has a clear base packed with pastel color glitters as well as silver holo glitters, including moons!

I dabbed on 2 coats and the glitters (including the moons) did not have to be 'fished out'. I got them to easily stick to the brush with a few swirls of the brush in the jar. 

I used a dark blue base because I was going for a night sky theme.  This is my newest MAC polish and I was pretty impressed with the formula. It was slightly thick, but it glided on in 2 easy coats. 

I knew these two would make a perfect pair. 

It's one of those nights where I spend most of my time just staring at my nails at the glorious sparkle and shine this manicure has lol.

The moon shaped glitters are my favorite. There is a small amount of bar glitter in this one as well. You can see that on my Index and Middle Finger in the first two photos. 

Hope you guys enjoyed this one. Stay tuned I have a lot going on in the next several weeks here at The Polish Hoochie :)

More Snow and a Shooting Star :)

An update on the snow storm we had here in the Midwest last week on Thursday, we got about 10 inches of snow in total. I had areas drift even higher than that. I pretty much had a death drive home from work in the afternoon on Thursday (a 20 minute drive took me an hour and 10 minutes in the worst part of the Blizzard - zero visibility), and I was snowed in Friday with lots of shoveling to do. According to The Weather Channel, the storm was called 'Q'....um yeah, I still don't get where they come up with these crazy names lol. I understand the alphabetical system, but Q.  Someone must of been a JAMES BOND fan :)

The kicker...a second storm is headed this way for Monday and Tuesday, with maybe more snow than the first...GAH, seriously lol. I feel like both storms are somewhat my fault though, let me explain. I'm originally from New York, and when I heard they were getting hit with Nemo, I was was jealous of all the snow they were getting. I miss having BIG snow storms. Here in Missouri we really don't get big storms normally. I told my husband I was jealous and I wanted 20 inches of snow here too. He said, "not in this lifetime, we never get snow like that" hehehe.  Well, as this new storm, Rocky, approaches (lol...seriously ROCKY?, it should of been 'M') they are predicting up to 12 inches. We still have 10 inches on the ground so with the 12, that is OVER 20 inches. My husband now blames me, haha. He says it's all my fault because I asked for it :) 

My last snow nails post went horrible. I thought the polish I used was called  Light Snow, only to find out the correct name was Light Show, lol. It was pretty disastrous to say the least. Since we are getting more snow, I'm determined to do another snow manicure, and get the name right this time. I have the PERFECT Polish.

This time I'm using Rainbow Polish, Shooting Star. Okay it has nothing to do with snow lol, but it gave me the look I wanted. This was a Limited Edition Fundraiser polish offered way back in 2012. I have seen it randomly pop up on Rainbow Polish's Etsy site here and there since, so I can't be sure if it will be back or not. This brand has quickly became part of my top 5 Indie Brands.  Here is Shooting Star layered over 2 coats of Orly Au Champagne.

 Can you say, 'GORGEOUS'!!!

This reminds me of the snow when you first wake in the morning and everything is frozen over and glistening in the sun, when everything is untouched and the snow really sparkles. The Holo glitters in this are glorious. You can see all the colors that reflect off the stars and hex glitters. There is also a fine micro glitter in the base, and together everything is just WOW!

I'm ready for the snow so bring it on, lol. The formula on this (and my other RP's) was a dream to apply. They are slightly thick, but I like them that way so I have better control brushing on the glitters. A few drops of thinner can also be used if needed. I can not get over how great this came out. 

There is even Holo bar glitter in this. I know a lot of you dislike bar glitter, but I love it. There is the perfect amount scattered in it. This is just Holo heaven in a bottle. 

I hope you guys enjoyed, and I will include more snow totals after this storm comes and goes. For everyone out there in  the track of Rocky, please stay safe and warm.

Snow and MORE Snow...with Light Show

(This is the second post for today, scroll down one post if you would like to see my candle and warmer tart collection.)

Tonight, here in Missouri it is snowing like CRAZY!!! We have had easily 10 inches so far, and the snow continues. SNOW...and MORE SNOW.  I wanted to do my nails to reflect the weather, so I decided on Light Snow from Naild'it.

(EDIT: Sorry guys, but the polish is called LIGHT SHOW, not Light Snow.) 
Instead of Snow nails I have a tongue twister. Light Show in the Light Snow ...LOL!

This is three coats of Light Show alone. I adore polishes with large black dot glitters like this. These truely end up being my favorite polishes of all glitters.

It has so many shapes, sizes and colors of different glitters. There is even a small amount of black bar glitter that I really like in this polish, it stands out against the light background. 

I did not place these dots, I got lucky and they brushed on with just regular polish strokes. The one thing I did do, which I have done in the past, is I 'wiped' the dots. Once the dots are on the nail I let them sit a bit, and then I take my finger and wipe them clean of polish. This way they are bold and really stand out.  You can also use a small brush with a drop of acetone on it and wipe quickly.

Here is a close up of the glitters. Look at the pretty sparkle going on in this polish.

Thanks so much for visiting, and I hope all of those effected by the snow in the Midwest stay safe and warm.

As far as the snow here, this is what it looks like so far - LOTS!
