Review of Trelly's M.I.S.C Spiked Witch's Brew

Halloween Manicures continue... Tonight's spotlight is Trelly's M.I.S.C Spiked Witch's Brew. As many of you know that follow me, I love these polishes. They have quickly climbed to the top of my favorites in my Indie Collection. You can purchase Trelly's HERE.

Spiked Witch's Brew!

 This is two coats of Model's Own Lime Green with two coats of Spiked Witch. I love how this layering combination turned out.

I am a big fan of these matte 'sand' type polishes. 

The color combo in this one is WOW. Teal Green, Black, White, Yellow....a GORGEOUS MIX!!!

I did not thin this polish. I wanted to layer it thickly on my base coat. This polish is so dense it really doesn't need a base. I almost wore it alone, but loved the thought of mixing it with Lime Green.

These 'sand' type polishes tend to dry with a gritty finish. I highly recommend Nail Pattern Boldness's Glitter Food topped with Seche Vite. You can get a really smooth finish this way. 

Check out this close up ... Ba-BAM lol. I love this. I'm so glad this is part of my collection. What do you guys think of this? Do you like it with the Lime Green base? Leave your thoughts below in the comments. I really enjoy reading them all.

Giveaway Winners and Nail-Venturous Humble Bee

My party is finally over :) It was a fun day and a very very busy week with planning and prep work. This is what I wore for my party. I had a Steelers shirt on that was Grey, White, Yellow and Black and I thought this would be a cute match. I'm actually a Jets fan lol, but Kelly is a Steelers fan so sometimes I wear it for him.

Nail-Venturous Humble Bee.

I have this in the 'new' bottle style, which I am not honestly a fan of. Kind of makes it look generic in a way. Oh well, I wasn't able to nab a bottle before they changed them so I'm stuck with this one lol. 

You can purchase this at Ninja Polish for those of you that like it. On to the nail pictures...

How freakin amazing is this?!!! I LOVE this. The layering combo isn't anything to call home about. My base color is Wet n Wild Black which is cheap, but effective! 

 

These pictures where takin' late in the day - after my party. They went threw party prepping, cupcake frosting, decorating, and a ton more.  No chips, no wear marks - gotta love Wet n Wild Black for great wear (at least for me). I didn't even refresh the top coat, and it's still super shiny :)  I used one coat of NYC Grand Central Station and one coat of Seche Vite Top Coat earlier in the morning.

 The pictures really speak for themselves. I'm in love with this polish. It was super easy to apply too. The only suggestion I make with this combo is make sure your Black base coat is dry and that you layer it with a top coat prior to applying Humble Bee. I got a few bald spots on my black since I didn't use a top coat to seal the black.

Do I look like a bumble Bee? Well, I'm deathly allergic to them lol but I still love this polish.

What do you guys think? Do you like this one? Do you have it on your wishlist? All I can say is it's the Bee Knees. Yup, I said it. I'm an official DORK lol :)

Review of Naild'it Bibbity Boobity BOO

Today I have a really neat polish for you guys. This one is from Naild'it. These polishes can be purchased at Llarowe. Naild'it is one of my favorite Indie polishes, and for good reason too ....

Here is Bibbity Boobity Boo, created for Halloween 2012. 

I layerd this over BB Couture's Joker. I love this purple, and I feel it's perfect for that 'Halloween Purple'. Does that make sense? You all know what I mean hopefully, lol. That purple that works perfect for Halloween time.

This has such an awesome background shimmer to this polish. I also love the glitter colors in this. The rusty orange, the light blues, and the deep purples are such a perfect blend. It just works together so well.

Andrea of Naild'it really knows how to work with her color combinations with glitters. I think this is why I love her so much, lol. These colors are really unique in my collection. I do not have anything else that is even similar to the look of this polish.

How fun is this for Halloween. I think it works just perfect with a purple base like I have it pictured here.. 

This is sparkle beauty at it's best. The glitters lay very flat in this. There were no bumps and lumps at all. I did use Nail Pattern Boldness Glitter Food (aka Fix a Flat) as a top coat with a layer of Seche Vite over it, and I'm 100% smooth. Glitter food can also be found at Llarowe and I highly recommend this if you are a Glitter Indie junkie like myself.

If you are wanting to try an Indie for the first time, I highly recommend Naild'it. I sum Naild'it up as great polishes and great customer service, that's all I ask out of an indie company, and Naild'it does not disappoint

Do you guys like this? What are your thoughts on this polish? Does anyone own this, and if you do please leave me links to your blog pictures if you do. I love to see the different versions people come up with suing these types of polishes!

Review of Trelly's M.I.S.C Hopeful

Tonight I have another Pink polish for you guys. This one is Hopeful from Trelly's M.I.S.C., my new favorite indie nail polish obsession lol. Trelly's M.I.S.C will be launching this tomorrow on her new big Cartel site found HERE. You can follow Trelly's on Facebook HERE to find details about launch times.

This polish was created for Breast Cancer Awareness for this month. I can not rave enough about Trelly's. I purchase a LOT of Indie polishes and I have to say these are among my favorites. The quality is excellent. I have a feeling this indie brand is really going to take off. 

Here is Hopeful...

WOW!!! This polish just floored me. I had seen previews of this on Trelly's Facebook page and I had a feeling it was going to be amazing. I was not wrong! 

I started with 2 coats of China Glaze Make an Entrance. 

On a side note, this China Glaze is AMAZING as well. It went on effortlessly and this was two simple coats. If all my polishes applied this easy I would be in nail polish heaven lol!

Next, I layered on three coats of Hopeful. I brushed this on and dabbed it on too. When you have a polish that is this glitter packed, the dabbing effect really helps to distribute the glitters nicely. I did thin this before using (about 3/4 drops of thinner).

This polish is packed with Sparkle. The quality of these glitters are fabulous.

Is this not drool worthy or what?! 

As my top coat I used Nail Pattern Boldness Glitter Food (aka Fix a Flat). If you guys are wearing lots of these indie glitter polishes, Glitter Food is a must have top coat. There is a learning curve to using it, but once you get it down you can get most glitters 100% glass smooth. It is self leveling and perfect for glitters. Glitter Food does dry Matte, so I topped it with one coat of Seche Vite Top Coat.

...and for your viewing pleasure, I created a video. I wanted to show you guys just how crazy sparkly awesome this is. 

I darkened the lightening in my room so that you get the effect of the Sparkles. There was no sun out today, so I was forced to do this indoors. It's a goofy video, I can not wait to see all the thumbs down I get on it LOL. 

  Hope you guy got a good giggle at this.    Thanks for visiting!    *Hopeful was sent to me for Review*

China Glaze Naked

I know I have been doing Halloween Manicure's Since Oct 1st, but I did want to sneak in a PINK manicure for Breast Cancer Awareness Month. Today I wanted to show you guys China Glaze Naked. This polish is part of the Breast Cancer Awareness Box Set that is part of my 600 Facebook Likes Giveaway, which can be found HERE

I actually got my bottle from Kelly (my SO). He got this for me during this past Christmas, but it was an individual bottle and was not part of a Box Set like it is now. I thought this was the perfect time to use it!

Kelly purchased me a bunch of polishes for my stocking with 'dirty' names for Christmas (a clever idea which he thought up all on his own), and this was one of them. I guess it was some sort of hint of what he wanted for Christmas LOL!!!!

This polish is very delicate and pretty amazing. All of the pictures show 3 coats, with Seche Vite as my Top Coat. This polish is so easy to apply and applying thin layers is easy with the excellent formula. 3 coats is not feeling thick and clumpy at all.

Where this polish stands above other pinks, is the gorgeous shimmer. I would like to say it's 'hidden shimmer', but I see it in most lighting so to me it's just gorgeous shimmer.

This is one of those polishes that I would not pick myself off the shelf. It seems blah and plain in the bottle. This is why I love when Kelly contributes to polish purchases. He picks things I would normally not pick for myself. I would have missed out on this beautiful polish if it wasn't for his awesome gift.

Can you see the shimmer? I know I can, and it was a pleasant surprise when applying this. It made me feel so girly and pretty lol.

If you are wanting this polish, enter my giveaway and you may get a chance to snag this up for yourself. You can enter HERE.

What do you think about this one? Do you like this tone of pink? Does the Shimmer make you want to buy the polish? Leave your thoughts on this one in the comments below.

Thanks for visiting guys. Also, stay tuned...I will have another PINK mani up tonight as well.
