Ulta- Concrete Evidence

Two coats no top coat :). Easy application, fast dry, very opaque color with excellent coverage. I like the wide cap on Ulta polishes, I have better hold-control of the brush.

Swatched- Revlon Whimsical

Sheer but clever! This sheer polish reminds me of young romance. Light pink hex and round glitters, similar shaped light blue glitters and small round silver glitters floating in a sheer blue polish. It lives up to its name, whimsical. I love this polish I swatched two fingers. Had to do four coats. The brush is standard skinny, application was easy and smooth. The formula is not chunky. Each layer dried fast no bubbling. I love my bottle of whimsical!




How do you find the time?!

Okay, so I took a week off my office job to try to get things in order then I realized.... o m blob I haven't swatched even half of my polishes!! How do people swatch all their polishes when their stash is over 100+ bottles?! I did two swatches today and my fingers are dry. Also I feel guilty... I buy polishes because I love the color but I dont just swatch a whole hand for a post. Idk I am not a wasteful person and think I should wear the shade and show it off not just swipe it off after the pics are taken :(. I am posting pics of my "stash" and newbies. I am feeling so much pressure from looking/reading through some other blogs and seeing their swatch lists (some are so lengthy). I understand everyone likes to see and know about the polish well I want to see is it ok if I swatch a SINGLE nail? And describe in detail how I felt about the application? I will post more pics of my manis and steps as I go but the whole swatch and remove for pics really makes me frown to waste polish. Open to opinions pls let me know what you think.

Swatches- Ulta

Diva is a very sheer pink with round fine holo glitters. Piñata-yada-yada is a clear base with hex and round shiny glitters (yellow, silver, blue, red, fuschia, and green). Lav-ish is a lavender like purple with a gold shimmer. Each finger was two coats except Diva (took 4 coats).

Julep Maven Box- June

Yay! I got my June box before Premiere Orlando. Besides the daylight defense spf30 for hands & face, creme polishes Claire (vibrant blue) & Lauren (magenta) I got 2 replacement brushes for last months polishes (thanks Julep team) & a lip balm with spf15. Didn't win a gold ticket but this box makes it harder to quit!! :)
