Color Club Poptastic Pastel Neon

Hey guys!

Today I have swatches and reviews of three of the Color Club Poptastic Pastel Neons to share with you!
I got these polishes at LuxBeauty, where you can get the entire Poptastic Neon Pastel collection from Color Club.


First up is Meet Me at the Rink, which is a beautiful neon pastel blue.
The formula was good and it was easy to apply. The opacity was okay - it was really streaky on the first coat but it was opaque in two to three coats.


Next is Diggin' the Dancing Queen - a red-toned neon pastel purple.
The formula of this one is the best of the three and it applied like a dream. The opacity was great as well and it was opaque in two layers.


Last but not least is 'Til the Records Stop, which is an awesome neon pastel green.
The formula was good and it was easy to apply. It was really streaky on the first two coats, but it was completely opaque in three coats.

My favorite of the bunch is Meet Me at the Rink - I have been looking for this shade of blue for forever!

Roses

Hello ladies!

Today I have some freehand nail art to share with you guys!

For the manicure I started off with a mint blue base of Appeal4 Mint Muffin on all my nails. Afterwards I freehanded the roses on my middle and ring finger with a small nail art brush and red, white, and green acrylic paint. To finish off the skittlette I applied China Glaze Fairy Dust to my pinky.


I love how the roses turned out - so pretty!

Another Thermal

Hi girls!

Today I have a swatch and review of the thermal nail polish Born Pretty #18931 in the color 100 to show you guys!
100 is a medium orange when it is hot and a lemon yellow when it is cold.

The formula was great. It was easy to work with and applied smoothly to the nail. The opacity was okay and it was opaque in three thin coats.
The color shift is amazing and on the picture below you can see both its hot and cold state.


This nail polish is from Born Pretty Store and it costs $3.55 for 6 ml.

Gothic

Hello ladies!

Today I have some gothic nail art to share with you guys!

For the manicure I started off with a black base of Essie Licorice on all my nails. Afterwards I stamped the (perfectly imperfect) crosses on my pinky and ring finger with MoYou London Hipster 08 and the silver Essie No Place Like Chrome. I finished off with some spiky studs on my middle finger.


The studs I used for this manicure is from Born Pretty Store (#10438 in the color Silver).
I like these studs because they are easy to use, look awesome on the nails, and because they are so cheap (they are only $4.33 for 100 studs)!

I think this manicure is so cool! And I love how the stamping is a little broken!

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!
