Twinsie Tuesday: Summer to Fall Transitional

This one was sort of hard. In my neck of the woods, we really didn't have summer weather until the end of June going into July. It was just last week that was pretty warm but today was 63 degrees. It's quite odd. But lately, I have been wearing darker colors just because of the weather. However, this one that I am going to show you is a newer polish from a recent collection, I think it's gorgeous.




This is Maybelline Antique Teal. I absolutely love this color! I wish it would've came out sooner this year but it is definitely more of a Fall color. Despite that, I totally would've worn this in the summer. It's not too dark but not too bright. It's not entirely a creme polish and it comes off matte. There are so many ways that this polish can go. I've never really been into the whole matte trend but the option to leave it matte is cool. The one thing that I do wish was different is the amount of flakes that comes off. I can't complain too much because this is one coat. One coat and it covered completely, so over all, this is definitely a win for me and I will most certainly be wearing this one more through out Fall.

What are some of your transition polishes?

Pahlish Ace of Fours

*Press Sample*

I am so happy to blogging about this baby! It's currently 2:22 AM right now but I am feeling dedicated! Right after this, I'm going to shower and hit the sheets! But before that, I bring to you Pahlish Ace of Fours. 




These blue flakes are amazing in this white jelly base. In the description box, it says it's a sheer white base but I would say, it's a really soft baby blue. And I honestly like that it's not a straight white base. I actually really like it just like this. What really made me fall in love with this is the sparse flakies and the subtleness of the silver shimmer. In the last photo, you can really see it. It's like a peanut butter and jelly, it just goes so well. These pictures do no justice because in real life, it's even more amazing!

If you haven't already and would like to try some Pahlish Polishes, you can purchase them here on Llarowe and/or Shannon's Etsy shop!

Twinsie Tuesday: Green Polish

Yay!It's that time again! Twinsie Tuesday! This weeks edition: green polish (week of St. Patrick's Day).


I honestly had no idea that St. Patrick's Day was this Saturday. I've never been the person to celebrate it - I actually never have my entire life. What do you usually do to celebrate this day? Anywho, green polish on our nails in honor of St. Patrick's Day!


Sorry for the late post, the funeral has got me messed up.

So, it looks really blue but the flakes really aren't. Anywho, I used Orly Lucky Duck in 2 coats. I think one would have done the job just I wanted 2 anyways. Then I used Sinful Colors Green Ocea and China Glaze Snow Globe at the tips. So what do you think? I think it's pretty ok. I couldn't catch the green side of the flakes, which really annoyed me - so sorry.

Orly Lucky Duck applied so perfectly, like butter! I love those kinds of polishes. Green Ocean was super chunky and dented up my nails, although it's such a pretty flake polish for only $1.99! I don't know if you can tell, but it was hard to apply. Snow Globe was fairly easy. Much easier than Green Ocean. And viola!

So what do you think?
