My new babies: Hit Polish Blueberries and Creme and Whimsical Ideas by Pam's Peanut Butter and Jelly

This blog post does not have a distinct theme like some of the other posts I have done. These are some of the newest polish which I have gotten and some of my favorites, so hope you enjoy!

First off, I wanted to start by showing you my undies. (Not those kind of undies lol... what kind of blogger do you think I am?) These undies.

They are a simple white (Sinful Colors White on White) and a magnificent gray (LynBDesigns Eloquent Dust)

Here's my undies holding the bottle of one of the indie brands that I have wanted for a long time: Whimsical Ideas by Pam!!


Now to show you what this polish is capable of: THIS!


....and this! (Work it polish bottle!) (You go Glen Coco!)(If you get that reference, you get a big ole teddy bear hug from me!)


Here's it is on the nails! I loved putting these two coats on! :)


It was so very easy to put on. Unlike some polishes, the bigger glitters came out without any fuss and spread evenly over the nail. Isn't it beautiful? (Insert montage of people/animals crying here)




Now onto my other polish baby: Hit Polish's Blueberries and Creme!

First off, before I show you the polish, I want to say my favorite colors are blue, blue and blue, so when I got a polish like this one with many speckles of differing shades of blues in them, needless to say, there was no way I was not getting this on my nails as soon as I got the bottle!


I mean just look at it! I challenge you to feel blue when you look at this picture! =]

Here it is again! Isn't it blueberry-licious? (Made up a word!)


~ With clear top coat ~


~ With Matte Top Coat ~


 In case you didn't get enough of the polish, here's my ring that I am going to make once the ring base comes in!



I hope you loved today's post!

First ever JAMM! Look inspired by a Katy Perry song?

This is my first ever Just Another Makeup Monday post, so I figured I would give you kind of two looks for the price of one!
See if you can guess what this look is called!

First off, before I show you the look (s), I want you to see my makeup haul!
I bought these four items: Eyeshadow Duo, Black Eyeliner, Shiny Lips Lip Stick and Volume Mascara...

and got all those circled in green free! It was part of a promotion; all you had to do was buy 20 dollars worth of Ulta Brand products, and you got all of the stuff circled for free! =]


I wanted to first show you the two lipsticks that I used. Here's Cappuccino! It's a beautiful brown color. Considering I didn't have a great brown, I was so thrilled to get this for free! 


Look at this shimmer!


Red with golden shimmer: Meet Rome!


Look at the two; they are muy caliente!


So here's my look(s)!
Let me give you hints for what I called this look is called:

~~1) It's a song by Katy Perry
(She's one of my favorite celebrities, because she just is who she is and doesn't care what other people think :) )
~~2) You're ____ _____ you're ____; You're yes and you're no, You're in and you're out..."
(If you don't get it, don't worry! I will tell you at the end of this post!)

So now I will just let the pictures speak for themselves!










So in case you couldn't tell I am a little wierd and that's my fake moustache in one of the above pictures! =]

So the name of my look was: Hot and Cold!

Hope you enjoyed this post!

Until next time,
Peace,

Ellagee's Lucy in the Sky

In case you guys didn't know, Ellagee's polishes are amazing!
So when Ellagee had Lucy in the Sky on her Friday Sale, I had to jump on the chance to own it! :)
Just take a look at the following two pictures and try to tell me it's not amazing! I dare you!!


Silvery, holo-y goodness!!!


I want you to first see one full coat of it over bare nails....


... yeah. This is how this polish acts in one coat. I challenge you to find another silver holo that is this complete in one coat. This saves having to go over and paint another coat, which I find amazing!



I should explain before going any further. When I ordered this polish, I was so excited, so I actually messaged Laura, the lady behind Ellagee and said that I would have to put this over so many colors. She said "yay."
So this is for Laura.
I literally put Lucy in the Sky over 15 different polishes, so that you and I both could see how Lucy in the Sky changes the way the polish looks! :)

 It would take a long while to list all of the polishes used, so if anyone wants to know the polishes I have used, just message me and I will be more than happy to message you with all 15 of them or a specific one!



See? It changes the look of the color, but still maintains the individual color underneath.



With this polish, you do have to do a thin coat of polish so that it will make the polish transparent enough to see the color underneath.



Wasn't that beautiful? I just hope that I took pictures that showed off this polish to the best that it could be.

As I said earlier, if you want to know any of the polishes that I used today, just message me on my page at www.facebook.com/GoPolishYourself

Oh I almost forgot Ellagee's polishes can be bought on her site here: www.ellagee.com

Until next time PoYos,
Peace

Review: Kinky Pink and Judas by Prinsess Makeup

Disclaimer: I won these from a Prinsess Makeup contest. I wanted to review them so that I could show you guys what I won and I was not obligated to review them.


Now that the legal-eeze is over,
On to the pretties!!

I won two clamshell samples of their lipsticks. There is Kinky Pink, which is Barbie (R) pink and Judas, which is a dark aqua color. If I am being honest, neither were colors that I would think of wearing, but once I tried them, I changed my tune.


I wanted to show you guys the lip sticks against my skin tone. For whatever reason, the camera showed my skin tone way darker than it is in real life; however, the lip sticks were pretty much true to real color. Aren't they beautiful? 

Let's first start off with Judas!
As I said earlier, it was not a color that I would have tried by myself, but it started to grow on me the more I used it! :)


It's a really beautiful teal color that has a darkness to it!


It's amazing; I only hope I did it justice! :)



Now let's move on to Kinky Pink!
Like I said before, it really is a Barbie-ish pink!
It's for the inner girly-girl in all of us :)


It's such a HOT pink!


I wanted to show you guys the full extent of my eyeshadow and the lipstick :)


My glamour shot haha!

Glitter, Glitter Who's Got Glitter?

I have heard some of your suggestions and the one I wanted to try first was a comparison post. For me, the most of one type of color that I had was glitters in blues and greens.
This is why this post is called......


First off, I wanted to show you all of the polishes that I used in order.

I used Butter London Scallywag....

L.A Colors Aqua Crystals...

L.A. Colors Treasure Island...

Pure Ice Party of Five...

and Daring Digits The Lake.

I took three pictures to show the differences between the polishes. They are in the same order as the pictures I showed above. (Butter London, L.A. Colors, L.A. Colors, Pure Ice and Daring Digits.



If I am being honest, my favorite two were from the teal three, I would have to say it was a tie between Daring Digits and the L.A. Colors. The Daring Digits polish has an amazing glitter that glittered with rainbow colors, whereas the L.A. Colors was more of an overall coverage.
My favorite polish of the blue two was Butter London. Although it's nine dollars compared to L.A. Colors at most three dollars, it does have a far more superior all over coverage and photographs beautifully.

Hope you liked this post! If you have any ideas for new posts, feel free to PM my page or leave me a message in the comments below!

Until next time PoYos,
