March Polish of the Month: OPI DS Glow

Good Morning dears!

Yay it's Saturday! This means I will be sleeping in, making a big breakfast and well doing nothing! It's super exciting. I love my weekends, don't we all?


Today I have my polish of the month to show you! There were sooooo many pretties to pick from this month, but I finally decided on OPI's DS Glow. I stumbled across this by accident. I was walking by a salon in the mall and saw some silver OPI caps and decided to investigate. They had this beauty in the bargain bin! It was on sale for $5.95. My jaw literally dropped so I scooped it up and held it really close as I headed to the register. I was scared I was going to get there and they tell me that it was put there by some customer and it was actually $15.95 or something. But this was not the case! Rang up at $5.95 and I had this silly grin on my face. 

This polish is a gorgeous brown copper gold metallic fusion. I was expecting it to be a holo as most of the DS series is, but it is stunning regardless. There are so many little metal platelets in this polish that combine to make this super sparkly beauty. It is a warm to neutral light gold and copper shade, but can take on an orange tone depending on the light. Since the light reflects off the metallic particles differently in different lights it can take on a number of gorgeous hues. There is so much sparkle it is amazing. It looks like a glitter, but it's not. So you get the gorgeousness of a glitter while no tricky removal process.

 

Even though this isn't a holo it is amazingly gorgeous. I am completely in love with it.

Do you own DS Glow? Or any of the other Designer Series polishes? Are you madly in love with them?

February's Polish of the Month

Hello again!

Thought that this morning's post was all for today? Well since it's a super special day I thought it deserved two posts and you didn't think I would leave you hanging without a polish of the month did you?! Of course not :D

This month's polish of the month came even as a bit of a shock to me. I have never been a huge fan of on green's on my nails. However I picked up this Revlon recently because I wanted to try their Matte Suede finish and well I found it for cheap!

Now the initial application of this turned out that the finish of this polish is neither very matte, or very suede. I was really disappointted so I didn't even take a picture of this. I promptly went and got Essie's Matte About You and put it on top. Well. I LOVED this. There's a subtle gold shimmer to the polish and really making it matte just made me soo happy it was ridiculous. I even kept this on for a whole 3 days. That's a loooong time in my world. 

There you have it! Another awesome polish out of my ever growing collection :)

Hope you're having a great day and thanks for stopping by!

Until next time,

Sincerely Stephanie

Favourite Polish of the Month!

Afternoon Lovelies!

So I want to start off by apologizing for not posting the past 2 days, life got a little crazy so I wasn't able to spend the time blogging! I will post another one tonight to make up for it :) Plus I start my Valentines Day Challenge tomorrow so there will be a post everyday for the next 14 days! Excited? I sure am :)

So today I will be showing you a swatch of my favourite polish of the month! Each month after everything I've done I'm going to decide on a favourite and share it with you!

January's fav is.... Orly's Bailamos!

This polish is from the Summer 2010 Viva! Collection and is an absolutely beautiful light teal with just a hint of a gorgeous shimmer. I'm so in love with this. I love blues on my nails anyway and this is just such a pretty colour. The application was easy too, with all the pictures being two coats. Btw no top coat in any picture!

LOVE LOVE LOVE IT! I have used this in a couple different manicures that I haven't posted yet, so be on the lookout for lots more to come using January's favourite polish!

Until next time,
Sincerely Stephanie
