Black Dahlia Lacquer: Royal Geranium

*Product Swapped For

Hey guys!

I am back today with a post on another polish that I did a swap for. I love to swap for polishes, even swapping more than one polish per if it means I am getting a really nice polish in return.

This polish that I swapped for this time is from Black Dahlia Lacquer. The name is Royal Geranium. 

It is a lavender creme filled with micro pink, small blue-lilac, medium red, and medium purple glitters. I did three coats by itself. Application was fantastic, I hardly had to do any cleanup.


This color isn't really festive and good for Halloween, but it was just calling out to me to try it out. Both the color and the name are more appropriate for either spring or summer, but it does have some red and a lot of purple, both of which in my opinion are very Halloween-y colors.

You can purchase their polishes from their website, blackdahlialacquer.com. You can get their polishes for as cheap as $6 for their 8ml bottles, which is the size I got in my swap, and it actually has quite a lot of polish for the size.

Well, that's all I have for you guys for now. I will talk to you all later, bye!

Bootie Babe Cosmetics: Freaky Cheeky

*Product Won In A Giveaway

Hey guys!

I am back today to show you guys a lovely polish that I happened to win in a recent giveaway.

Bootie Babe Cosmetics held a giveaway for some of their polishes form one of their recent collections. There was a number of colors of polish that I could win, including green, blue, and yellow. Those who won weren't able to pick what color they wanted, so I just had to hope I would get a color that I liked and could use.

To my delight, I won one of my favorite colors to wear. Plus, this is my first ever Bootie Babe polish, and I have been wanting to try out their polish for a really long time!

 

The polish I have to show you is called Freaky Cheeky. This is part of 8 limited edition bikini bottom nail polishes from their line. It is a hot pink shimmer. I did two coats by itself.


Application was great! This is such a great polish, and I hope I have a chance to try more of their polishes in the future. Plus, their bottle design is so cute and unique from all of the other polish brands out there. 

This color, and basically all of their other colors, are for sale for $8 (REALLY!) on their website, www.bootiebabe.com. Plus, they have free US Shipping, so you need to get on it and get some of their polishes if you don't yet. The color selection is fantastic!

Well, that's all I have for you guys for now. I will talk to you guys later, bye!

Ciate Glitter Polishes: Swatches and Review

*Products Purchased By Me

Hey guys!

I am back finally with a new post after letting my damaged nail heal for a little while.

Today I have two lovely polishes to show you guys that I picked up a couple of weeks back from Nordstrom Rack.

They had a display table full of clearance makeup, and I found these beauties from Ciate sitting there.

I have two up to show you guys.

The first one that I have is called locket. This is a silver holo glitter with small chunky sliver glitter. I did two coats by itself. Application was great. The coverage was a little more sheer than I thought but it was still pretty good.


The second one that I have to show you is called jewel. This is a blue-silver bar holo polish. I did two coats by itself. It is so shiny and holo-y that my camera couldn't get a great pic. Application was great. I am not a huge bar glitter fan but this one was pretty and covers quite well.


These polishes both can be used as glitter toppers, but with two or three coats, they work perfectly on their own. You can find Ciate polishes on sale often at TJMaxx, but sometimes like I said at Nordstrom Rack. I paid around $3 a piece for these, but they go for $3.99 at TJMaxx. 

Well, that's all I have for you guys for now. I will talk to you all later, bye!
