Boogeyman ~ Tipsy Turvy Nails

In honor of Halloween, we have created a line of polish after my favorite scary movies. I love scary movies. Even the dumb ones. And, we thought this would be a cool line to introduce. 

This first polish is Boogeyman. This is in honor of Michael Myers...the man who made Halloween a scary time for me...but in a good way. His costume was simple. Blue coveralls and an emotionless facemask with hair...brilliant. And, he was surprisingly quick...he always managed to take one step for the 8 or 9 of the person he was chasing. Makes sense, doesn't it?

And, Boogeyman is available in our Etsy store, Tipsy Turvy Nails. 

The polish has a light silver/blue base with blue matte hexes and regular shiny blue hexes, white and red hexes, silver holographic squares and a rainbow sparkle.

Here we go!

Coppernicus ~ Tipsy Turvy Nails

Very proud to post this! This is one of the polishes in our very own nail polish line, Tipsy Turvy Nails.

This is Coppernicus - a copper base with tiny little orange and black hexes. There is also a little bit of holographic properties in it. The orange hexes are very subtle, but really catch in the light.

I hope this is the first on many kickass polishes that we can create!

Different Dimension ~ Soft Kitty, Warm Kitty

I have been wanting to review this one for a long time. This is the 3rd polish of the Big Bang Theory Collection from Different Dimension. This polish misbehaved on me the first couple of times I tried it. It is pretty thick, and I didn't think I was skilled enough to put it on. Every time I did, I ended up taking it off in frustration.

So, I added some thinner and a couple more mixing balls. That seemed to do the trick:

From the Etsy listing, this polish is a creamy grey jelly base with tons of different sized white hex glitter, silver holographic glitter and grey glitter in different sizes.

This polish is not glitter heavy, and I think that is why I like it so much. Even though this polish almost defeated me, I kept on fighting it until I won :)

Different Dimensions - Fifty Shades of Grey Collection Part 1 - 50 Shades

So I decided I needed more indie nail polish.  I was wandering around Etsy and came across Different Dimension.  She had a glitter collection of four bottles inspired by the Fifty Shades of Grey series.  While I have read the series, twice, it is a guilty pleasure read.  By no means is it a great piece of literature, but it sure will keep you reading.  Then regretting that you read it.  Then you move on to book 2 and 3.  Then before you know it you have downed at bottle of wine, you finished all three books in a weekend and your husband can no longer walk...

Ahem...

Anyway - here is the whole collection (and one of her necklace she makes as well)...

From left to right...50 Shades, Red Room of Pain, Inner Goddess, more...

She also puts a QR code on the back of the bottles so when you scan them it takes you right to her Etsy store...clever huh???

So I decided to put on a base coat though in her Etsy store you get full coverage with two coats.  She describes this polish as:

"This polish is packed with tons of amazing glitter in a grey jelly base! There are black & white shreds, gunmetal & matte grey hex glitter, superfine grey flakies, black hex, holographic silver squares, as well as black, sparkling white, holographic silver ultrafine glitter and holographic grey glitter!"

So of course I started with 50 Shades.

Here comes the photo bomb!

Revlon Timeless and 50 Shades by Different Dimension

One coat

Two coats and final product.

This glitter polish is very thick.  It has tons of sparkle and the grey jelly base really covers.  Unfortunately, I tried to make dinner too soon after applying my fast drying top coat and I messed it all up.  No fault of the polish, but the fault of the wearer and the impatience to feed her family...

Wah...

RIP 50 Shades manicure.  Until we meet again.

Stay tuned for the rest of the collection!!!!!!

Different Dimension ~ Bazinga!!

I love The Big Bang Theory. So, while shopping on Etsy, I came across this store, Different Dimension. She has an entire line dedicated to one of my favorite TV shows. I had to have it!

So, this is the first of the series. So far, I am crushing on it and looking for other things to paint with this glitter. My husband has said no to painting his nails...any other takers??

Description from her site:  This polish has a yellow jelly base with different sized yellow and red hexes, as well as little red and yellow glitter.



Are you ready...

Now you can see why I love it. I put on 3 coats of Wet n Wild megalast in a color called Heatwave, which is pretty awesome by itself. Then 2 coats of Bazinga! and a coat of Seche Vite.  The formula is excellent. There was no fishing for glitter...it just came out like that!

I'm just sad that in a few days I will need to change this to something else...but I do have 3 more polishes in this collection to try...so stay tuned!!

Oh and...Bazinga!!
