Candy Shop by Claire's

Hi friends! Today I am wearing Candy Shop by Claire's. This polish is a close dupe of Deborah Lippmann's Candy Shop. When the DL version came out last summer I wanted to buy it but never got around to it. I'm glad I didn't because the Claire's version has a very similar look but for much less! This is three coats topped with one layer of Seche Vite.




And just for fun, here's a glitter sandwich I did last month trying to create the look of Candy Shop. I used China Glaze Something Sweet, Deborah Lippmann Happy Birthday and Zoya Starla.

Verte de Rage by Karine

Happy St Patrick's Day! Today I am wearing a green jelly given to me by my new friend, Karine. She has created a collection of polishes inspired by our birthday club. The one she made for me is called Verte de Rage. This is such a unique and beautiful polish; it is packed with multicolored flakies and glitter. I used two coats and one coat of Seche Vite.



I really love this green! I have lots of glitter and flakies but nothing like Verte de Rage. Thank you, Karine!

My First Post

I had a dream last night that I had a blog. So when I woke up this morning I thought maybe I should have a blog. So here it is! I am working on getting a better camera, so please bear with my photos for now.

The first post I bring to you is what I am wearing today. This is OPI Kiss Me On My Tulips topped with a Lynnderella's Connect the Dots. I really love wearing Connect the Dots; it always fetches tons of compliments. This was the first time I wore Kiss Me On My Tulips and I love the color. I'm a sucker for pinks but I think this is a pink that anyone can enjoy. It is bright and perfect for spring. And as to be expected with OPI, the formula was amazing. This is two coats.

Stay tuned... more posts to come!
