Massive Swatch and Nail Art Catch-Up Post!

It has been a while, I apologize for not posting! I have been so busy with college and midterms. To make up for it, here are some swatches of some of my untried indies and a few manis. So HERE! WE! GO!

First up, we have a lovely polish by Breanne of The Juice Box, "Memory Lapse," which is from her Pregnancy Pains collection that she released a few months before her little juice box was born.

This lovely bright pink jelly is opaque in three coats over white and has different sized white hex and square glitters along with some white bar glitters. I love this pink, it is so girly and really great for summer during bikini weather (; The formula was really good, I didn't have to fish for the glitter and it is so smooth. All of these polishes she makes are incredible! Here is a link to her shop.

The second indie I have for you tonight is by Anette of Disturbed Potions. A polish I got a few months back, this is called, "Virgin? Ha!" and is a gorgeous raspberry colored jelly.

This jelly goes on so easily and is packed with heart glitters, purple and pink small circle holo dots and dark glitters. I did not have to fish at all for the hearts or any of the other glitters, and it reminds me of raspberry jam. (: This is three coats.

The third and final indie I have a swatch for you tonight is a lovely polish by Jo of Lacquer Lust. It is called "Sky's The Limit" and is a gorgeous baby blue that kind of looks grey but has a touch of holo in it.

This is four coats of Sky's The Limit on it's own. I found it to be a rather thin polish, so I layered on four thin coats for opacity. It reminds me of a blue pearl :D I definitely need some more of her polishes!! (:

So those are all the swatches I have for you tonight. However, I also have two manis for you!!! (:

The first is a mani I did because I finally got my hands on Sally Hansen XTreme Wear "Confetti Cake!" Yay!

I did a gradient of Essie's "Bouncer, It's Me," and OPI "Planks A Lot" topped with China Glaze "Fairy Dust." The accent nail is four coats of "Confetti Cake." I love love love love love this polish!!

The second manicure is the one I am currently wearing. I was wanting to do a watermarble and a gradient and I had just put on Essie "Shake Your $$ Maker."

 I layered a watermarble of Essie "Naughty Nautical," Sally Hansen XTreme Wear "Blue Me Away," and OPI Original Nail Envy over my green base on my ring and thumb fingers. I did a gradient of Shake Your $$ Maker, Naughty Nautical and Blue Me Away on the rest. I love how good I am getting at gradients now that I have had more practice. (:

Here is a better shot that includes my thumb. I dislike the funky hand pose but the thumb is so pretty, how could I bear to leave it out?

Well, that is all I have for you for now, maybe for a little while. School has five weeks left, so hopefully I will have more time to do nails and maybe get some swatching in.

Have a great day everyone! (:
