Necessary Evil Polish | Queen Collection

Press Sample of the Necessary Evil Polish Queen Collection It’s been a busy weekend! My son had 2 reports due by tomorrow and we’ve been focused on them all week. I did manage to get some swatching done though! So now I’m going to be sharing the Necessary Evil Polish Queen Collection to share! This is a 4 piece collection, and from the sound of it – it’s just the start and this will be a continuous collection from Necessary Evil. It’s inspired by Queen, so all shades are named after their songs! In the Necessary Evil Facebook Fan Group – Tamara said it’s the “beginning of the Queen Collection” which is why I think it will be a collection that will be added on to. Let’s jump in and see the first 4 shades in this installment! Necessary Evil Polish | Fat Bottom Girls Fat Bottom Girls is a…

The Holo Hookup January 2019 | Cell-a-brate Biology

Press Sample of the The Holo Hookup January 2019 | Cell-a-brate Biology Can you believe we’re already doing a 2019 geared post? I cannot believe we’re about to come up on a whole new year! I have the The Holo Hookup January 2019 Cell-a-brate Biology themed box to share! As always, I’ll do a quick rundown for those new to The Holo Hookup! This is an all holographic box and each month it will have 3 constant indie makers in it – Glisten & Glow, DIFFERENT dimension and Cupcake Polish.  The guest maker this month is Bee’s Knees Lacquer! Each shade in the box has holographic elements of some sort in it. It may be scattered, linear, subtle or in your face, but an element of it is there. Some makers may incorporate other elements such as shimmer, glitter or flakes – but it will be in conjunction with holo. Let’s jump right in! Cupcake…

Hit The Bottle Black & White Undies Peel Off Base Coats

Press Sample of the Hit The Bottle Black & White Undies Peel Off Base Coat Back in May I reviewed the Hit The Bottle Keepin’ It Peel base coat, which is a clear, longer term peel off base coat (when compared to latex peel offs.) Today I have the Hit The Bottle Black & White Undies Peel Off Base Coats to share! Keepin’ It Peel is a clear peel off base coat, and the Black and White Undies are similar, but apply like black and white creme polishes. These are water based peel off base coats that last much longer than the latex peel offs, plus they removed the need for a base color under your glitters.  They do take longer than latex to dry though, so be aware of that. They do take a bit longer than the clear version as well. For me, they took about 10 minutes to…
