Hi everyone, Firstly I must apologise for my absence in blogging, I have had a lot going on in my personal life which has taken priority and left very little time but hopefully now things have settled down a bit I will be back with regular posts. In one of the facebook groups I'm in the question came up of how well the EDK holo Andromeda would stamp over a holo blue polish so I decided to have a play around and see how they look over a holo polish as we know they look good on black and white. I have swatched half of the collection over a light and dark holo so I will share my results and offer my opinions at the end. First for those who haven't seen them over black and white here they are - First over a red/pink holo is Laguna Over a dark and light blue is Roseta Over a purple/lilac Andromeda Then over a brown/gold Omega I put Pleiades over a light and dark pink Finally over a dark and light green is Orion and here they all are together. ...

Hi Lovelies, Sorry I have been a bit MIA recently between starting a new job and Christmas prep I have been spreading myself a little thin and haven't had chance to write this post but finally here it is. The final PTR box of December and it really is another goody. This month was all about Christmas movies and lets be honest who doesn't spend most of December watching Christmas films! So joining our PTR residents Colors by Llarowe and Bear Pawlish this month were Cupcake Polish, Lilypad Lacquer and UK Indie Dark Metal Laquer in a box that finished off the year perfectly First from Dark Metal Lacquer is a hot chocolate brown holo with gold flakies inspired by Love Actually. This polish is called To me you are Perfect. Lilypad Lacquer created this amazing baby lilac holo inspired by The Cat in the Hat knows a lot about Christmas called Magic in the Air. It wouldn't be Christmas without a bit of gold and this is a very sophisticated and easy to wea...

Well polish fans it's that time of the month again (although a little bit early this month) my November Paint the Rainbow box arrived this morning and I was so excited by this box that I had to swatch ASAP! Well the 1st thing I can tell you about this box is that just like all the others this one is incredible, all 5 polishes are gorgeous so Annette and all 5 makers give yourselves a pat on the back because yet again you have outdone yourselves. This months theme was Disney Villains and as a huge Disney fan I couldn't wait to see where the makers took their inspiration from, The box featured our regulars CBL and Bear Pawlish and Julieann of UK brand Freckles was back but this month we had 2 brands making their debut and they have fitted in superbly. Here are the 5 inspiration pictures the makers chose -  There are some real evil villains in there but there is nothing evil about these colours! Here is this months box and we also saw the debut of the new bags...these ...

So Polish guys and gals, when I see the words New CBL collection I get just a little bit excited and really do want to dance around the room because Leah Ann is a goddess in my eyes...her polishes are always something special and I just cant say no to the holo goodness of Colors by Llarowe! So when Annette announced they would be on Rainbow Connection last week I checked out the swatches and somehow limited myself to 7 - I have since decided I need 3 others though!!! Ok 1st up is Hot Buttered Rum a gorgeous pale gold/nude holo. Any Harry Potter fans out there? - I imagine Butterbeer would be this colour! I nearly didn't get this but so glad I changed my mind. Jewel of Denial was another I nearly didn't get but I decided I did need it. It's hard to pick up from this picture but this is an Emerald Green with blue undertones, the flash really picks up the blue in it. Top of my wish list was Ice Ice Baby - think the name says it all really, and icy/sky blue hol...

Well on this windy miserable Wednesday I have some polishes to show you that I hope will brighten up everyones day. I am a bit of a sucker when it comes to Grace-Full polishes these days, Theresa knows how to make some holotastic polishes and when I saw these Christmas collection polishes on RC I knew I needed some in my collection. I managed to narrow it down to 4 but I'm pretty sure if funds had allowed there would be more. So the swatches - as usual with my swatches they are 2 coats of colour and pictures are taken in my light box, 1 without the flash and 1 with so you can see all the holo gorgeousness. 1st up is Christmas Rose, now these pictures don't do this polish justice because this is the most perfect Rose Gold colour. I am a big fan of Rose Gold and my eye is drawn to jewelry in this colour instantly and finding the perfect Rose Gold polish has been something I have wanted for ages and this ticks every box for me, it is Beautiful, I loved it the moment I p...
