Trelly's M.I.S.C. Flamingos in the Pool swatch

Press Sample  - Trelly's M.I.S.C
Purchased by Me  - Sation
 
Just a real quick post tonight. I decided to try out Trelly's M.I.S.C. Flamingos in the Pool. It's a bright pink that leans on the fluorescent side. I layered this over 2 coats of Sation's Beyond the Bubblegum Pink.


It makes me think of the cheesy plastic flamingos that people put in their yards for lawn decorations... hahah.

Super fun and bright. I really had fun with this one. The formula was great, I didn't thin it and I brushed and dabbed it on. The stars came out on there own, no having to place them.

14 Carrots Whimsical Ideas by Pam manicure


This is my first Whimsical ideas by Pam polish, 14 Carrots. I have a our family picnic to attend tomorrow, (we have it once a year), and I wanted something bright and fun. This polish fit the bill perfect.


I'm so pleased how this came out. I layered it over Wet n Wild Sunnyside.

Just note that Sunnyside is more yellow toned and once you layer the 14 Carrots over it, It darkens the color to what you see here. I loved the combination so much. 


Orange is one of my favorite colors, so when I saw this polish I had to own it. You can only order these polishes on Facebook. Visit the Whimsical Ideas by Pam's Facebook Page and you can email your order to Pam.


 The glitters in this are very simple, just one small hex and small micro glitters, but they really pack a punch for me. 



 It's gorgeous and simple, but bright and wild lol. Just like me:)



I was super pleased with the consistency. Not gloppy or thick at all. It was easy to brush and dab on. I have a few more of her's that I have ordered, and I'm now anxious to use them. I will have to order more now as well.  There are several I have my eye on.

Thanks for visiting and have a lovely weekend.

Candy Lacquer Spring Fever ...In Summer :)

Purchased by Me
 
I have had this polish sitting around in my collection since the Spring, and before Fall starts, I wanted to use it. I can get away using it in the Summer, but I don't think it would work well with the Fall so much.

I paired Spring Fever with Sation's Loudest Color. I wanted bright and wild. I think I achieved that exact thing...


Loudest color is a fabulous neon yellowish greenish polish (yes, adding 'ish' to the end of a word makes a real word, I promise lol). It leans more towards green(ish). I did have to do 3 coats of it to get it opaque, so use thin thin layers if you decide to duplicate this look.


I knew the combo would be great.


 I know I know, It is WAY past Spring time lol, but better late than never :)  I figured before it's Fall - I would get it done!


I love how the large purple dot glitters and pink butterfly glitters complement the neon. This one is not for the faint of heart.
 

Thanks for visiting guys, and stay tuned. I have a bunch of giveaways coming up so make sure you are subscribed to ThePolishHoochie Facebook Page to participate.

Have a wonderful weekend!

Trelly's M.I.S.C. Flip Flops and Tank Tops Swatches

Press Sample
 
This polish is from Trelly's M.I.S.C. and is part of her Summer collection for 2013. Before the Fall gets here (lol), as it seems to be approaching FAST, I am trying to get my Summer polishes (and some Spring polishes) swatched for the month of August.  I'm hoping to do as many as I can.

This one is SPECTACULAR.

FLIP FLOP & TANK TOPS


 I decided to pair this with black. The base color is 2 coats of Wet n Wild Black. I wanted the neon colors to really pop, and against the black they look fabulous and really come to life.


I didn't place any glitters on this one, just brushed and dabbed it on as I do most of my glitter bombs.


Trelly's M.I.S.C is definitely one of my top favorite Indie Polishes (outside of Candy Lacquer). Cassie comes up with the best glitter shapes and color combos! I just love her style. Sometimes I feel like she makes these polishes just for me (hehehe) :)


This polish has a nice hidden surprise too. Look at the amazing micro glitters in it. It adds so much texture to my plain creme black nail polish base. Here is a close up (below).


 If you haven't tried her polishes yet, you are missing out. You can check Cassie out on her Facebook page HERE. This is where you can find the latest info on new releases and Her Etsy Shop sale times.

Zoya Cashmere Swatches

Press Sample

As promised this is the next new set to expect this Fall 2013 from Zoya. This is the Cashmere Collection

If you are big into cremes, this set is a must have for you. The quality of these cremes are so impressive and surpass 90% of my other cremes that I own. The formula is top notch!


These are all ONE coat. Yes you heard me right, ONE COAT each!!!!...is that not to die for or what?! This collection is worth it for that alone. I could  have used 2 coats, but these polishes are so pigmented I didn't feel they needed a second coat. I was floored by the flawless coverage. 


FLYNN

First up, is the nude from this collection. I love this color. It's not a match to my skin tone, but it offsets my pale coloring really well. Everyone will want at least this color from the collection. Must have collection color here.


This is a perfect work appropriate nude for those that can't wear color at the workplace.


It went on very smooth with only 1 coat is shown here. I love how smooth and glossy these polishes are. The texture and consistancy is spot on for these. This is like a comfortable pair of Khakis.



LOUISE

This is the PERFECT chocolate brown color. I am one of those odd people  that happen to LOVE browns. Not many are fans of brown, but this one will change your mind for sure. It's like dipping your fingers in a vat of chocolate sauce.


 This one looks even darker in less bright lighting. Look how deep and dark it gets just by changing to darker lighting.


I love love this, and I think you will too. I brightened the light up and look how light it gets. It's fabulous!!!



NEXT UP...


HUNTER


Another beautiful green, and what a perfect name lol.


I love it and I am thrilled as a green lover to have one this Deep and pigmented. This also gets VERY deep and dark in darker lighting. It's like if Nars Zulu went creme (not as dark tho). Here is is in a darker lighting and it gets even darker. I had some lighting during the day today that almost made it look black green.


Another beauty...

SAILOR



This is a really pretty blue with a hint of purple. Blue colors are very hard to photo. I feel it will be the demise of me one day lol. 



 Here it is in darker lighting (below) and I feel the best representation of the color (the best my camera would allow for). In darker lighting this polish gets black blue colors.




PEPPER

This is my favorite of the entire collection. This is like a Terra Cotta pot color with added red. 


 This is what it looks like in a bright light (below).


In darker lighting, like shown below, it takes on it's true color of wonderful...It's very unique and I do't have another color like this. I suggestion this as another MUST have from this collection.

Finally last ...

LIVINGSTON

A really pretty red in this collection. This is the perfect red.



For one coat is was LOVELY!!!


I know this seems like a typical boring red, but it's not. So bright and *Cough Cough* a ONE coat application :) Need I say more?


Thanks for visiting and enjoy!
