Hello lacquered lovelies! Happy pink Wednesday! I don't know what it is but lately I've been wearing more pinks than usual. I had three swatches sitting around, edited and ready to post, so I figured I'd combine them into one post. So, enjoy (hopefully!) some mini pink spam :)
First up is Claire's Candy Shop. No attempts to hide the duping effort here, I think haha. This is a cute polish, I actually didn't mind wearing it. I used two coats - there was still some VNL but the glitter in mine was a bit lumpy (which you can seen in the macro, I think) so I settled for two. I'll probably thin mine before I use it again, though.

Next is China Glaze Dance Baby. Sorry for the cloudy picture, I wore it a few weeks ago and the weather was absolutely miserable! The formula on this was really nice, I used two coats. I'm not sure this pink does much for my skin tone but I wore it for a day anyway.
This last one is the result of me playing around with layering, like I seem to do a lot haha. I started out with two coats of Nicole by OPI Kim-pletely in Love (the name makes me want to vomit but I do like the polish). Then I added a coat of a franken by Jen, which she so sweetly named "Phuckin' Glitter" (the result of one of the best twitter conversations I've had in ages that happened about a month and a half ago), which is also totally awesome and the polish I keep turning to to update manicures when I don't have time to do a new one, added a coat of China Glaze Luxe and Lush, another of Phuckin' Glitter, then one more coat of Kim-pletely in Love. Luxe and Lush kinda got lost in all the sparkles and glittery bits but I liked this one anyway. And I'll say it before - I'm sorry for the dry cuticles, so ick!
Alrighty. That's it from me today! I know I haven't been the best about posting lately but I really will be trying to get back on the wagon soon. I've got lots of ideas, I just need time to follow through with them. And because people seemed to like the idea, I will be doing a "vintage week," I just need to wear all of my knockout (literally - the smell of some of them is unbelievab[ly delicious]) babies first.
What do you lovelies think? Are you wearing pink today?
Thanks for reading! Have a beautiful day!

ReplyDeletePink polish has been calling my name lately as well! I have bought more pink in the last month than I have in about 5 years. The Phuckin Glitter looks awesome!
ReplyDeleteThis post brings back some phucken' memories man...
ReplyDeleteThat Claire's polish looks like an exact dupe of Deborah Lippmann Candy Shop! Same name and everything
ReplyDeleteI have the Claire's Candy Shop too and I agree that it was bit patchy in spots. It's not a completely identical dupe to the Deborah Lippmann Candy Shop but it's pretty close and it only cost $5! Totally worth a try.
ReplyDeleteThat Phuckin glitter polish is phucking amazing! And makes me lmpao when I remember the twitter conversation that went with it <3 <3 xx
