San Fransisco
This one is just such a beautiful emerald green that I thought it needed to be included with the special glitter.The formula is quite thin - I have three coats on my nails, and you can see that it's still a tiny bit sheer! For full opacity, I'd recommend layering it on top of a solid creme. (Black or a matching shade of green would probably look best!)
It photographed surprisingly horribly. Under my lamps, it actually showed up blue! This photo is much more color accurate, and I was standing in indirect sunlight. For the photos under Feelin' Lucky, I was under my lamps and I had to edit the colors as best as I could.
Feelin' Lucky
Feelin' Lucky is a really fun glitter topper. Sadly, the shamrock glitters that you see so many of in the bottle are nearly impossible to get onto the nail. It probably took me a good 5 minutes of fishing just to pick out the 5 glitters for this mani! That's a bit disappointing. But the other types of glitter are much easier to get on the nail, and they're still fun and St. Patrick's themed.From left to right, I have it on top of San Fransisco twice, Salon Perfect Loopy Lime, and Salon perfect Sugar Cube. The small green glitters show up much better on top of a lighter color! Personally, I like it best on top of Loopy Lime - the bright green has a faint shimmer to it, so it adds to the fun effect of the glitter.
The glitters are quite spread-y, so during application it's best to dab the glitters on, rather than spread the brush across the nail. This one showed up on my camera much more accurately than San Francisco did!
As a little bonus, each polish in the giveaway will come with a cozy crocheted by Kate's Crochets, which is unsurprisingly my crochet shop! I have a lot of fun making these because they only take about ten seconds. Okay no, not really, but they are quick and fun for me!

It used to be making leprechaun traps when the kids were little.

ReplyDeleteSince I've gotten older, my husband and I like celebrating with a few friends each year. We always find some cute theme for the party - last year was all Leprechaun foods - mini hot dogs, mini nilla wafer cookies with green frosting, Irish car bombs... It's one of the few nights a year we get out without our kids for some grown up fun with friends.
ReplyDeleteThat's great! I love mini foods. You get to eat twice as many of them ;D
DeleteMy husband and I always fix corn beef and cabbage with potatoes in it but we do it together. He will get the corn beef to cooking and I will peel the potatoes etc!
