Nail-Venturous Floam Swatch and Review

     Today I am very pleased to be able to show you Floam by Nail-venturous. This polish has been a long time lemming for me and was my first nail polish crush. I am so super happy that this beauty is now in my collection. Floam is mix of green, yellow, and teal micro hexagon, matte glitter in a clear base. And can I just say before I show you this polish that it's everything I hoped it would be and more. I adored this polish before I owned it and now...well now I am full on in love with it. But enough blathering. Here's Floam.

Swatch:

Indoor with flash. 

Indoor no flash. 

Outdoor...the sun is hiding again today. 

The bottle:

                        Indoor with flash.         Indoor no flash.              Outdoor. 

Closeups:

      All pictures are with three coats of Floam and a layer of topcoat. It's a thick formula but it didn't cause any application issues. That said make sure you let each layer of Floam dry fully before applying the next layer. Or you will have matte glitter migration. How much do you love Floam? Because I love it to the moon and back. I couldn't be happier that after almost two years of trying to get a hold of a bottle I was able to out bid someone on eBay and for only $13. Anyway, I hope you guys enjoyed this manicure and this polish. Until next time, stay classy and stay polished.

OPI Get Your Number Swatch and Review

     Today, I have Get Your Number (GYN) from OPI's Mariah Carey collection to show you guys. GYN is a medium blue liquid sand polish with multi-sized silver holographic glitter in it. I love this polish. It's freaking amazing. My inner Valkyrie is going nuts on this one. So without further ado here's the pictures.

The bottle:

And a song... because I like the song. Enjoy P!nk - Timebomb. 

     All pictures are with two coats of GYN with no top coat. The formula is thicker than the other two I have swatched but dries quickly. Also it's worth noting that this polish is sandier than the others in the collection that I have swatched. It has a courser texture, probably due to the different type (and amount of glitter) in this one. But so far this one is by far my favorite in the collection. I just love it. That's all I have for you today. Until next time, stay classy and stay polished.

Zoya Phoebe Swatch and Review

     Just a quick swatch post today. I am going to show you guys Phoebe by Zoya. Phoebe is a bright teal matte polish with a bit of shimmer in it. Also there will also only be two pictures because my phone says it's 8 below zero outside and my butt is not going out there to take some pictures. Mostly because brrrr. Any way here's the swatches.

The bottle:

Indoor with flash.

Indoor no flash.

Swatches:

Indoor with flash.

Indoor no flash. 

Close up:

     Both pictures are with three coats of Phoebe and no top coat. The formula is really thin but dries quickly. Also it's worth noting that after 3 coats of Phoebe you can still see the nail line so it's not opaque. Over all it's a pretty color and the sheen is nice but it reminds me of spandex...like bright teal 80's spandex leggings and frankly it's not an appealing association for me. But that could be just me and my own weirdness. I'm on the fence thought. What do you guys think? Awesome or tacky throw back? That's all I have for you today. Until next time, stay classy and stay polished.

China Glaze Running In Circles Swatch And Review

     I can't wait to show you guys this polish. I am not surprised by polish very often but this polish has managed it. I wasn't going to buy this polish when I first saw it, thinking it was not for me, but since I had a Amazon.com gift card I figured "Hey, it's free for me so if it sucks I can just pass it to someone else." So I bought it. Can I just say that when I opened the package my jaw hit the floor. I was stunned. Running In Circles (RIC) is stunning. It's a green polish with medium and dark green glass(like) flecks in it. Think Riveting but in green. I think my new nail polish obsession is going to be glass(like) flake polishes because I am head over feet in love with this pretty polish. Which is saying something because I am normally bot a big green nail polish kind of girl. Mostly because green is not a good color on me (normally). Let's just say I get asked if I am sick a lot when I wear green (I am one white, white girl...I'm practically Powder over here. JK but only by a little). Any who, let's get this polish show on the road. And for a special treat I also swatched it with a matte top coat.

The bottle:

Indoor with flash.

Outdoor...it's snowing a tiny bit!!!!

Close Up:

     All pictures are with three coats of RIC and a top coat (Seche Vite of China Glaze Matte Magic). So how much are you loving this polish? Because I am complete crazy in a mad frenzy sort of way in love with this green glass flecked polish. My inner Valkyrie is jumping up and down, while clapping her hands. I don't ever want to take it off. If you don't have it, go out and get it now before it's gone or becomes an HTF. It also screams Christmas and will most likely be working it's way into some Mardi Gras and St. Patrick's Day manicures next year. Because I will use any excuse to wear this polish again. Well, that's all I have for you guys today. Until next time, stay classy and stay polished.
