piCture pOlish Bardot

Hello ladies!

Today I have a swatch and review of piCture pOlish Bardot to share with you guys!
Bardot is a light pink creme with a peach undertone and a scattered holo finish.

The formula is great for a pastel shade - it is creamy and easy to apply. The opacity is good and it is opaque in two thick coats or three thin ones (like a used for the picture below).


This shade is so delicate and beautiful!

Blobbicure

Hey guys!

Today I have a simple skittlette to share with you featuring a blobbicure as an accent nail!

For the manicure I started off with the blue scattered holographic piCture pOlish Forget Me Not on my ring finger and pinky and a yellow base of piCture pOlish Sorbet on my middle finger, pointer, and thumb. While the nail polish was still wet on my middle finger I used Forget Me Not to make the blobbicure.


The blobbicure technique is so fun and easy to do!

Fancy Friday: Chocolate

Hi girls!

Today it is time for this week's Fancy Friday manicure!
The challenge is chocolate and I made a skittlette featuring a chocolate-inspired water marble!

For the manicure I started off with a chocolate brown base of OPI Going My Way or Nor-Way? on my pointer and middle finger, a dark brown base of Essie Partner in Crime on my thumb and pinky, and a white base on my ring finger. Then I made the chocolate-inspired water marble on my ring finger using Essie Partner in Crime, Essie Urban Jungle, and OPI Going My Way or Nor-Way?. To finish off the skittlette I applied China Glaze Fairy Dust to my pinky.


I think the water marble looks like delicious chocolate!

Appeal4 Magical Sea-Lion

Hey guys!

Today I have a swatch and review of Appeal4 no. 145 Magical Sea-Lion to show you!
Magical Sea-Lion is a deep blue shimmer.

The formula was good - a little on the thin side, but still easy to work with. The opacity was great and it was opaque in two coats. It does not stain upon removal which is a huge plus for me!


This color perfect for fall and winter! So beautiful!

piCture pOlish Allure

Hello ladies!

Today I have a swatch and review of piCture pOlish Allure to show you guys!
Allure is a magenta nail polish with a scattered holographic finish.

The formula was amazing and it was applied like a dream to the nails. The opacity was great as well being opaque in two thin coats. It dried to a satin finish so you will need a top coat if you wan a shiny finish.


This color is beyond beautiful! I love it!

Fancy Friday: Light and Darkness

Hey guys!

Today it is time for another Fancy Friday manicure!
The challenge this week is light and darkness and I made a yin-yang skittlette!

For the manicure I started off with a white base of piCture pOlish Bright White on my middle finger, pointer, and thumb, and a black base of Essie Licorice on my ring finger and pinky. Afterwards I freehanded the yin-yang symbol on my middle finger with a small nail art brush, a big dotting tool, and black and white acrylic paint. To finish off the skittlette I applied the holographic glitter China Glaze Fairy Dust to my pinky.


I love the yin-yang philosophy and how it translates to my nails.

Appeal4

Hi girls!

A few days ago I bought some amazing Appeal4 polishes, so today I have some swatches to share with you guys!


First up is Soft Wave, which is a mint green creme.
The formula was great and it was easy to apply. The opacity was (surprisingly) amazing and it was opaque in two thicker coats!
This color is so delicate and pretty!


Next up is Bay of Cadiz - a light lemon yellow creme.
The formula on this one was good - a little runny, but not so much it was floating my cuticles. It was opaque in three coats.
I love this yellow - I have nothing like it in my collection!


Lastly I have Nightingale's Heart, which is a neon red creme.
The formula was great. It was a little thin for my liking, but it was easy to apply and self-leveled amazingly. The opacity was good as well and it was opaque in two to three coats (I applied two coats on my pointer, but three on my middle finger and pinky).
This shade of red is my absolute favorite!


I know these colors are really bright and summer-y, but I am not quite ready for fall yet!
