Color Club Poptastic Pastel Neon Remix Collection

Color Club has a glitter topper collection to go along with their pastel neons they released for this summer.  All the colors are coordinating and glow in the dark.  There are seven polishes in this collection and the swatches are of each topper over the coordinating polish in the other collection.  Each polish is just slightly tinted so they really don't change the color of the base shade very much.  If you'd like to see live application of each polish, you can do so here:

Boogie All Night Long over Feathered Hair Out to There


Call of the Disco Ball over Hot-Hot-Hot Pants


Feel the Funk over Diggin' the Dancing Queen


Get Down Tonight over Meet Me at the Rink


It's Electric! over Under the Blacklight


On the Flip Side over 'Til the Record Stops


Soul Sister over Disco's Not Dead

Thanks for stopping by and have a great day!

Saturday Random Swatchfest 4/11/2015

Catching up on Saturday Random Swatchfests from months passed when I was feeling too nauseated to blog.  Still, these polishes need their time in the sun.  If you'd like to watch the live application of each one, you can do so here:

Zoya Isabel is a bright red/pink with some lovely lustre.  A


Sinful Colors Zest of Times is a super sheer hot pink shimmer.  At two coats you can still really see the nail underneath so it's probably much better-suited as a topper.  C


Maybelline Crushed Clementine is an amazing orange with bangin' yellow shimmer.  A


Spoiled Pirate's Booty is an awesome gold topper with a bit of pink flash in there too.  A


FingerPaints Sketch n Etch is a grassy green lustre polish that would probably be better at three coats but I've shown you just two here.  B-


Orly It's Up to Blue is a frosty teal on the deeper side.  I wish you couldn't see the brush strokes so much but I really love the color.  A-


KB Shimmer Right as Reign is a gorgeous deep violet, but it's not so deep that you can't still definitely tell it's purple.  Such a great formula.  This is two coats, but you don't really need more than one.  A


OPI Comet in the Sky is another glitter topper from the 2014 Winter collection.  Black and holo glitters make up this clear-based topper.  This is two coats.  A


Sally Hansen Groove-y! is a sheer cream-colored polish.  Wasn't too crazy about this one.  B-


Illamasqua Jo'mina is my A+ polish of the week, because just look at this color! Wow- such a lovely bright purple with an amazing formula.

Thanks for stopping by and have a great day!

Color Club Poptastic Pastel Neon Collection

Color Club has a beautiful neon pastel collection out for Summer made up of seven creams.  Some of these were a bit sheer at two coats, but the colors are so lovely I still really enjoyed them.  The formula wasn't sticky either and if you wanted to paint these all over white to make them even brighter you could certainly do that.  If you'd like to see live application of the whole collection, you can do so here:

Diggin' the Dancing Queen is the lovely bright orchid.  These will all be two coats unless otherwise noted. This one is definitely my favorite of the collection.


Disco's Not Dead is the gorgeous bright, light lemon.


Feathered Hair Out to There is the light bubblegum pink of the collection.


Hot-Hot-Hot Pants is a great peach that leans just a bit pink.


Meet Me At the Rink is a bright sky blue that's just a bit sheer as you can see at two coats.


Til' the Record Stops is another that's just a bit sheer, but just look at this lovely, bright pistachio.


Under the Blacklight is up last and as you can see, it's a bit streaky at two coats.  I'd either go for a third or put this over white, but I just love how bright it is.

Thanks for stopping by, and have a great day!

Color Club Shift Into Neutral Collection

Color Club released a neutral collection at the early part of 2015.  It's made up of seven creams and I felt like this collection was a bit hit or miss.  If you'd like to see live application of the whole collection, you can do so here:


Barely There is a warm caramel nude that I didn't fall in love with; it was a bit sheer at two coats.  All the same, it would probably look great on another skin tone.


Blank Canvas is a white cream that was pretty patchy at two coats.  You could do a third, but I've shown you only two.


Blush Crush is a very sheer blush/cream color.  This is three coats and I really didn't care for it.


Get a Mauve on It was one that I did like.  It's a lovely cool-toned mauve/brown.  It was still a bit patchy but I liked the color.


Midnight Mulberry is the other polish I did enjoy.  The color is lovely and this is two easy coats.


New-tral was another great cream and had an easy two coat application.  It's kind of dusty too.


Sweet Mint is a very light pistachio cream.  This is two coats.

Thanks for stopping by and have a great day!

Saturday Random Swatchfest 4/4/2015

Catching up on Saturday Random Swatchfests from months passed when I was feeling too nauseated to blog.  Still, these polishes need their time in the sun.  If you'd like to watch the live application of each one, you can do so here:

China Glaze Designer Satin is up first, just a great classic red.  All swatches will be two coats unless otherwise noted.  A


Revlon Lava is a gorgeous deep hot pink lustre.  A


Julie G Sugar Rush is an orange-red texture polish with amazing gold shimmer.  Love this!  A


FingerPaints Gilded Chrome is another textured polish.  It's made up of gold and silver pieces.  B-


Sinful Colors Sheer Flight is a gorgeous green/gold lustre that is super sheer, but over a dark polish like a blue shown here, it is so lovely! B


Zoya Nyx is a light blue/gray texture polish with silver shimmer.  This must be the week of texture.  I thought this was a bit sheer at two coats, but still lovely. A-


Pure Ice Last Chance is a stunning deep purple.  So so amazing for the price point of two dollars!  I just love this deep violet.  A


Wet n Wild Valet Tag is a silver/beige with silver lustre.  B-


OPI Snow Globetrotter is from the Winter 2014 collection with white and holo glitter pieces in a clear base.  So gorgeous! A


Colores de Carol The North Star was my A+ polish.  An amazing deep navy with subtle shimmer.

Thanks for stopping by!  Have a great day!

Color Club Love Tahiry Collection

The Color Club Love Tahiry collection is made up of seven scented polishes.  There are creams and glitters and I think some really great basics in here.  If you'd like to see live application of each polish, you can do so here:



50 Shades of Love is a clear-based glitter that has red and silver hearts.  It's super cute, but some of the glitter was breaking off so that was a bummer, but I've shown it here over the gray in the collection.


Cloud Nine is the white cream in the collection.  It has decent opacity at two coats but you could certainly go for three.


Jitters is the microglitter of the collection.  It looks pink based but it's also heavily packed with holographic glitters.  So lovely, and opaque on its own at two coats.


Sweet Getaway is a poppin' bright pink crelly.  I'm showing you three coats here.


Red-Handed is a classic red cream that applies nice and smoothly.


Seal It With a Kiss is a warm strawberry pink.  This is two coats and it's another great cream in the collection.


Tall, Dark & Handsome is the last of the bunch.  It's a dark gray and very lovely at two coats.

I hope you found this review helpful.  I purchased the whole collection from head2toebeauty.com

Thanks for stopping by and have a great day!

Bonita You Blue Me Away Collection

Today we'll be taking a look at the Bonita You Blue Me Away collection made up of six budget-friendly polishes.  This brand can be found at Rite Aid and Kmart.  If you'd like to see live application you can do so here:

All the polishes in this display are pretty decent at two coats which is what I'm going to show you here today.
First up is Booty Shaker, a fruit punch pink.  


Sexy=Me is a great classic red cream.  Loved this one.


Shark Bait is a green-teal that actually stained a bit so I don't recommend it but it's pretty.


You Are My Unicorn is a pearled white that looks pretty frosty on the nail.


You Blue Me Away is a sky blue cream that could probably use three coats, but I've only shown you two here.  


Hostess with the Mostess is a slightly warm-based peach cream.

Hope you found this review helpful and have a great day!
