More Darling Divas

*Press Sample*

These are the rest of the goodies that I am extremely excited to you guys! Carrie is one of the sweetest person I know and her polishes are always amazing. While all of her collections have always been amazing, this recent collection that she came out with just blows me out of the water. They're unique and nothing that I have seen around with other indies.

 Catherine

I have to say, I think that this is one of her most amazing collections thus far. There are glitter ones, a while based polish and a holo polish. And the best part yet is that they're different.

Of all the polishes in this collection, Catherine is seriously my favorite. Catherine isn't like your regular holo polish. It's super opaque and covered in one coat - except I did 2 just because. But the best part is that it has purple/blue iridescent glitters. Hopefully you are able to see it in the photo above. This was the only picture where I was able to catch the soft holo and the purple/blue iridescent glitters. Hopefully you get the gist of it. Unfortunately, this picture still does no justice. You really need this one in your life.

In conclusion, I am blown away by this collection. They applied like butter, and they're simply amazing. Not only is this collection perfect for Spring but for every season as well. Carrie's inspiration for this collection was a great idea and her interpretation of each bear turned out great.

If you're interested in these polishes or other Darling Diva Polishes you can visit her Etsy shop here. Her polishes retail between $8 -$12. I also highly recommend that you "Like" her Facebook page to keep updated on her shop and future polishes here as well as participate in her random giveaways there. So go check it out!

Darling Diva Antares

I love me some Darling Diva Polishes! Most of all Carrie! Oh she's the best!

This is Antares from her Halloween collection.

 The guiding star for the Guardian of the Watchtower of the West. Primary Element of Water.

Rochelle is the witch large and in charge of this watchtower. It is naturally thought because she is the competitive swimmer that she was naturally drawn to this watchtower. The color scheme behind this polish is the true Wiccan colors for this watchtower.

 Look at all that goodness!

 

Before a topcoat of glitter.

After a coat a glitter.

Antares is a blue jelly base with various blue and orange holo glitters as well some some blue and orange metallic glitters (some square) and blue to green iridescent shimmer.

Doesn't she look beautiful? So juicy! Yummy sandwich, ready to eat!

You can't see too much of the iridescent glitters in here since I did a jelly sandwich, but it's much more visible in real life, as well at the holo glitters. I am planning to play with it some more so you can see the iridescent glitters and the true goodness of this polish.

Likewise, this polish was amazing! The formula was a bit thick but nothing a littler polish thinner couldn't fix. Application was smooth and finish was not bumpy at all.  I was actually really surprised how long this stayed on! Because I loved it so much, I kept it on for a week! There was obvious tip wear but it didn't peel off, at all! 

With my previous positive experience with Carrie's Darling Diva Polishes, my expectations are pretty high and her polishes exceed my them by far! I love them and highly recommend them!

You can purchase Darling Diva Polishes at her Etsy shop here. Her polishes retail between $8 -$12. You can also "Like" her Facebook page to keep updated on her shop and future polishes here.

Gwin

I had a wonderful weekend and I really hope that all of you wonderful lovelies did as well!

I have got something awesome for you today, er, well, I think this is pretty awesome.

Oh yeah! Look at that baby!

Zoya Gwin was super smooth and applied very easily. This was 2 very awesome opaque coats. Gwin was released in 2010 and is a coral'ish-orange with a very strong golden yellow'ish iridescent shimmer. Sometimes you can even see a green shimmer peeking through.

This was very hard to photograph for some reason. I hate when that happens, as I'm sure we all do. But hopefully you get the point. The iridescent shimmer is much more visible in real life. This color is like the unnamed coral-ly orange of the year except with a shimmer in it.

The only thing that I can really complain about it that in the picture with the flash, you can see the brush strokes. And anything with brush strokes annoys me! However, I am willing to let that go for the beautiful outcome considering since the brush strokes aren't noticeable. I really love this. It's so juicy looking for summer!

What do you think?

Kim-pletely Glass Pink

Good morning it's Wednesday! Half way done with the week, or so they call it "hump" day.

Don't you just love the name? Totally fit for her. Anywho, so that is what I have for today!

This one was probably one most wanted polishes when the Kardashian Kolors released their polish line. I know some people who paid $12-$15 for this polish. This is not your normal sheer jelly-looking pink. I actually picked it up because of the hype. But it's a pale milky pink with shimmer but it has beautiful iridescent blue/purple glassflecks in it!

I know most people did 4 coats but I switched it up. For the base I used a coat of Sinful Colors Glass Pink then 2 coats of Kim-pletely in Love. You can't see in the picture but under the perfect lighting you can see Glass Pink shining through and you can see the beautiful gold specks. I love the way it looks but I don't think it's to die for. So I am thinking about putting it in my blog sale. We will see how that goes!

Do you own Kim-pletely in Love or any of the KK colors from NOPI?

Also, I just have to share this with you because gas prices are going crazy!

Everyday I only hope to see gas being sold at the dollar store!
