Tough As Nails Lacquer Updates

(1) I've updated my blog sale with newly reduced pricing! Check it out: BLOG SALE!

(2) I've added two new colors to the line!

Not a Plain Jane: Available on Etsy.

Not A Plain Jane is a topcoat lacquer, containing hex glitters in varying shades of white and pink, along with a few white hearts. Not A Plain Jane is named for one of my favorite people. She is sophisticated, feminine, completely fun, and known to sprinkle fairy dust in the lives of those she loves.

Over Julep Penelope:

Over OPI Fly (teal) and Butter London Snog (pink):

 43 Quintillion: Available on Etsy.

43 Quintillion is a topcoat lacquer. It contains hex glitters all of the colors you might find on a certain cube-shaped game from the 1980s, which happens to have forty-three quintillion combinations. 43 Quintillions is the life of the party -- she's a little bit wild, a little bit mixed up, and is always working to see how high she can get her bangs and how crimped she can get her hair.

Over China Glaze Happy Go Lucky:

 

 Over China Glaze Manhunt:

 Over Confetti Lonesome Dove:

NotTooPolished: GRANGER

It's Harry Potter's birthday today. So in honor of that, I have NotTooPolished's GRANGER, named for one of Harry's best friends, Hermione Granger. And, like Hermione, GRANGER sports the colors of Gryffindor -- a beautiful red-burgundy jelly base with square and hex shaped glitter dispersed throughout. I lurve it. 

 

Check out all of the depth in the bottle:

 

And here are three thin coats of GRANGER with one coat of Poshe fast dry topcoat. No undies in sight for this beauty.

Amy's Nail Boutique: I Pity The Fool

Sorry for the late post today but I had a cranky kiddo who was not interested in sticking to bedtime whatsoever. 

On to the nail polish! I have another one from Amy's Nail Boutique this evening. Up tonight is I Pity The Fool, a coppery, golden holo glitter polish that is glowy and ethereal. Over the weekend it was pretty rainy and dreary and I wanted a warm and cozy polish. So I Pity The Fool was my choice and I was very happy with it.

Check out the glow for yourself! Bottle macros:

And here are three coats of I Pity The Fool, no undies, next to a window to pick up on the glow of the holo glitters:

All That Glitters: Ruler Of My Heart

Today is the kind of lazy Saturday that I wish occurred more often. Nothing in particular to do, plenty of bad TV to catch up on, and a perfect day to paint my nails.

Because of a happy accident, All That Glitter's Ruler Of My Heart found its way to my home. And I'm so glad that it did because it makes an amazing topcoat for any color of nail polish!

 Here are some macros that show off the glitter! Ruler Of My Heart contains silver holographic hearts and fine silver holographic bar glitters.

Here is a shot lit from underneath to show how glowy Ruler Of My Heart is:

And here is a swatch of one thick coat of Ruler Of My Heart applied as a topcoat:
