Hare Why so Igneous?

Hare is the second independent brand I have tried out. I bought three polishes direct from Nikole and the Hare Etsy website.  Why so igneous is from the Where's Summer, B? collection released earlier this year.

Hare Why So Igneous? - Natural Light

This is three coats on its own.  Why so Igneous? has green and purple square glitter, with smaller green and purple hexagon glitter and a fine purple shimmer all in a purple tinted base.  Application was easy and I didn't have to go fishing in the bottle for bigger pieces of glitter.

Hare Why So Igneous? over Color Club Disco Dress - Sunshine (a little bit)

This is three coats of Color Club Disco Dress with two coats of Hare Why so Igneous? I like it this way where it is being used as a top coat. 

I have some more Hares coming to me in the mail, but this time from Llarowe. As Indie sellers become more popular they are harder and harder to get a hold of. :(

Lots of Love

Butter London Dodgy Barnett

Yay! After the weather man promising sun for the last three days, we finally had some, and I managed to finish work on time and get home before sunset to capture these pictures of Butter London's Dodgy Barnett.

Dodgy Barnett is from the 2012 Butter London Autumn/Winter collection.  To be honest I am not quite sure why you would include Holographic polishes in a winter collection.  Its spring here at the moment an we barely get any sun, so I cant imagine winter in London having much sun.

This is three coats. This one as not a one or two coater like a lot of other holographic polishes are these days.  Its quite thin so could actually be used as a holographic top coat over other polishes.  However it does have a significant amount of holo-ness so is totally worth getting.

I haven't spotted this one in New Zealand yet. There are very very few holographic polishes available in New Zealand, so if this one is spotted in Farmers, it may be worth paying the ridiculous retail price of $35 for one of these.

Deborah Lippmann Rock This Town Set


Rock This Town is a three piece set of metallic polishes by Deborah Lippmann that is exclusive to Nordstrom.  I bought this set while I was on holiday in America, actually this exact set came from Vegas.

Deborah Lippmann Moon Dance - Natural Light

Moon Dance is described as a deep lavender swirl (glimmer).  This is three coats.  To be honest I am not a fan. It is thin and has a grey base to it.  It has lavender glitter and a smaller amount of copper glitter.

Deborah Lippmann Chain Reaction - Natural Light

Chain Reaction is described as a dirty brass (glimmer).  This one did have a dirty base colour, kind of a grey/green mix and is full of grassy green glitter.  This is three coats.

Deborah Lippmann Phoenix Rising - Natural Light

Phoenix Rising is described as a foxy copper (glimmer).  Interesting descriptions really aren't they?  This is my favourite of the three. This is three coats. This one has a pinky orange base and is full of copper and gold glitter.

Spotted in NZ: OPI Skyfall

Today in Farmers I spotted the new OPI James Bond Skyfall collection.



This collection has 12 regular polishes retailing for $27.  I bought a couple of these already on my holiday which I will swatch a bit later on.


Farmers also had the Real 18K Gold top coat. But I almost cried a little inside when I saw the price. A whopping NZ$74 for this polish. Also another thing I am glad I bought in America before coming back home.


Last of all Farmers had the OPI Magnetic polishes in stock. Again I was totally surprised when I turned it over and saw the price. NZ$40. That is for ONE polish. I could not believe it! Please do not waste $40 on one of these polishes if you are in NZ! There are much cheaper alternatives. Look on the Color Club NZ website and fins someone stocking their magnetic polishes. They are under $20 each.

Spotted in NZ: Orly Feel the Vibe



I spotted the Orly Feel the Vibe collection in Farmers the other day.  Out just in time for summer.  Neons are in all the stores here at the moment and while I am not keen on wearing neon clothing, I definitely do not mind it on my nails.

Happy Halloween!

Hi ladies,

Ever since I got back to work two days ago I have been swamped. It is the busiest time for my team all year and I came back right in the middle of it.  I am still jet lagged at the moment (I am waking up really early and falling asleep super early) so I had to choose between Halloween nails and Halloween cucpakes for Halloween yesterday.

Cupcakes won (my nails are naked)....


Have a great day people.
Lots of Love
Lisa
