2 Summer Coral Polishes

Hey guys!

Its almost summer!!! I'm loving neons and summer colors, especially because its been really really hot in LA lately. Sunny So-Cal... woo?

Anyways, Today's post is 2 of my favorite coral polishes I just picked up recently. One of them is a really close dupe to my ALL TIME favorite toe color for summer. Here's the pictures:

Direct Sunlight

Natural Light, Shade
Bikini by Julie G. 3 coats. Holy hell, neon! I don't usually like neon pinks or corals on my fingers, and this color isn't an exception. This is basically gonna be a toe color, and its a really close dupe for China Glaze Flip Flop Fantasy, though this seems a tiny bit more pinky. Formula was pretty good, but as usual it dries to a matte finish, so topcoat is necessary

Direct Sunlight

Natural Light, Shade
Maybelline Color Show in Coral Crush. 2 Coats. This is a really pretty true coral polish. Again, this is a color that I'll get more use out of on my toes rather than my hands, but its so pretty and I think its perfect for my toes!

I'm loving the coral trend and I'm excited to wear these on my toes if I can ever manage to pry Flip Flop Fantasy off my toes (I just love it too much!)

Thanks for reading!

Color Tattoo LE Summer 2013 - Swatches!

Hey guys!

I know, I know, I haven't posted in a while. I've been super busy, but now that I'm not working on a show, I FINALLY have time to blog and do videos again *happy dance!*

I was recently at Walmart and I found the Summer 2013 Color Tattoos by Maybelline which I was dying to find. Duochrome creme eyeshadow that doesn't budge on me? Yes, please!!!




Swatches taken in sunlight
Waves of White is a white base with a beautiful green/teal duochrome.
Lavish Lavender is a metallic lavender - gorgeous for spring!
Icy Mint is the least pigmented of these. It is a metallic mint. Really pretty, but really sheer *sadface*
Seashore Frosts This color is like a sunset in a bottle. It is a blue base with a beautiful coppery gold and greenish duochrome
Blue Paradise Blue base with a purple/green duochrome
Cool Crush Silvery base with a pink/blue/teal duochrome

Then, I got an idea to swatch these over black.. and oh my!!!

Swatches in Sunlight over black

Overall, I really love these. I'm wearing Blue Paradise today and I wore Seashore Frosts yesterday (MY FAVORITE!!!) And they both creased a tiny, tiny bit, but after hours of wear. I really love the color tattoos in general and these are duochrome. All I can really say is *drool!*

Here's a video I posted on these: 




And a random picture of my Oscar (Ozzie)... because I can! :D
