Indie Spoltlight: Naild'It Summer Lovin Collection

Today I have three Indie polishes from Naild'it that can be found on her shop at Etsy. These are all from the Summer Lovin Collection - Summer Lovin Water, Summer Lovin Melon and Summer Lovin Sun-Flower Seeds.

I did swatches with both SV top coat and with a Hard Candy matte top coat. I am loving the Indie polishes once mattified!

Polishing late night = Hot Mess Fail (Indie spotlight in disguise)

Today I wanted to try out my new China Glaze Desert Sun polish from the new Safari collection. I was thinking about Fall manicure ideas (hoping that the thoughts of Fall will stop this insane never ending heat wave we are having in the Mid-West).

I applied this late last night. I have not been feeling well, and I think I was half asleep. Polishing late at night = a HOT MESS FAIL lol!

I have been doing a lot of Indie Spotlights and was wanting to do something PLAIN *holds back the urges of smoothering this with glitter*.

Blah - never going to apply a creme in a rush late at night anymore. This is what happens when you do...

My middle finger is lumpy looking and my free edges look a mess, but nail polish is not always so perfect so I decided to post the pics anyway. The polish itself was a beautiful formula and very easy to apply and this color is so cool. It's hard to explain it, but it definitely screams Fall to me.

Since I hated my application on this one, I decided to cover it up with glitter *breaks down so easily* lol. I decided on KB Shimmer's Orange Pop.

This manicure went through a lot of phases ...

Rocking the Matte with the Party Rockin

(EDIT/UPDATE: I added the below pic after the original post - Hope that's okay guys!)

ORIGINAL POST BELOW

As usual, I could not help myself lol, and I added matte top coat to my last mani of Lush Lacquer Party Rockin. You can see the original mani here

I think glitters looks awesome with an added matte top coat.

 

I think this is GORGEOUS!!!

Party Rockin is now a permanent member of my top 5! Did you guys like it better with our without the matte top coat?I would love to hear your thoughts.

Thanks for visiting!!!

Indie Spotlight: Lush Lacquer Party Rockin!

I know, I know, I can hear you guys now, 'another indie polish'. Yes!!! I'm currently obsessed with them at the moment lol. At first I just thought they all looked like bad glitter bombs, and after I tried them - I WAS HOOKED hahaha.

I have been so excited about receiving this! Unfortunately my first bottle came broken :( and I finally received my replacement bottle this weekend *happy dance*! This is Lush Lacquer's Party Rockin. This is a gorgeous glitter packed polish in a very light blue tint clear coat. For today I layered if over American Apparel Peacock.

Did I mention this polish is gorgeous?!!! My camera struggled getting a good picture because this is glitter on steroids LOL! This is probably the most glitter packed polish that I own, and really love it.  If you are wanting to order a Lush Lacquer polish and can't decide which polish to start with - this is it!

With one coat of SV this is smooth as glass, you wouldn't think so with so much glitter packed in this polish. This can also be worn over basically any color base color. I almost ordered this in a mini and now so glad I got the full size bottle  - I need to try this over EVERY color lol :) 

What do you guys think of this one? Let me know. Thanks so much for visiting and I hope you all are having a happy weekend.
