DIFFERENTdimension Stronger

Hey there!

Today I have another polish from the Set It Free collection, Stronger, that was provided to me by Missi from DIFFERENTdimension.  

I am so in love with these holographic polishes, they are truly fantastic (and so is she!)  

Today's polish is a lovely blue holographic polish that flashes purple.  It is seriously a stunner.  

It was another one of those polishes that kept distracting me and I found myself often staring at my hands.

For informational purposes: I put this on Saturday afternoon, and it is now Tuesday night and I have had my first tiny chips in it.  However, I am VERY hard on my nails. Between my job and my three year old I am not easy on my nails.  Considering this is holographic, that is amazing to me.

Missi's description of this is: "Stronger is a blue leaning periwinkle scattered holographic polish with hints of different colors reflected in the light. It looks amazing by itself or layered over other colors."

The pictures below are three coats (as it was a bit sheer), over one coat of Orly Bonder with one coat of Poshe as my topcoat.  I tried very hard to get a good picture of the purple flash.  I hope you like my pictures!!!

DIFFERENTdimension Black Dahlia

Wow guys, I have some super exciting things on the blog today and for the next couple posts.  I have had the honor of receiving my first polishes to review!!!! The wonderful Missi from DIFFERENTdimension sent me her Set It Free collection for review.

The set consists of three holographic polishes that have an amazing color shift in them, the one I am featuring today has glitter in it too!

I had such a hard time choosing which one to wear first, they are all that pretty.  But one had to be first and I chose Black Dahlia.

This is Missi's description of it: "Black Dahlia is a black leaning greyish purple scattered holographic polish with hints of different colors reflected in the light, it also has micro iridescent glitters in it. It looks amazing by itself or layered over other colors."

 The pictures below are two coats of Black Dahlia over Orly bonder topped with one coat of HK Girl. I had zero issues with application, it went on with no streaking and was great to work with.
I had different lighting conditions for these in order to (hopefully) show it would look in real life.

I will say that this polish has an amazing purple shift to it that was very hard to capture on camera.  I honestly could not stop staring at my nails while I was wearing this.

Ok, I know you are ready for the pics....

                                                       



                                                       This is my favorite shot of this!

                                            This is the best shot that shows off the glitters

                                                 Great bottle shot that shows the flash!

Shape Shifter and Sweet Metal

Ok so here is a quick post about a mani I did the other day. This pink is Suzi's Hungary Again topped with Lynnderella's Shape Shifter and Candy Lacquer's Sweet Metal. Pointer and Pinky are Sweet Metal and middle and ring are Shape Shifter.

I don't know why my skin looks different in some of these pics. That is something I have to work on. My skin is so fair I sometimes have a hard time with it.

Anyone out there with super fair skin have some picture tips?

Neon, Neon

Ok, who knows that song?

Today I have a semi-fail at nail art.  What I had in my mind, did not translate to the nail. Not. At. All.
I wanted the perfect color block with white lines in between all the colors.  I have seen other people do them. However, I don't have their patience I guess.  In time I will get better.  In hindsight I realize that I could have just used my white striping polish to obtain the look I wanted but didn't think about it until days later.
Maybe next time.

I started with a base of Sally Hansen Xtreme Wear in White Out (over a coat of Orly Bonder). I used a base of white to make the colors pop. Once that was dry I taped off half my nail and painted that with Jessica Pink Explosion.  From there I free handed squares of Orange Zest and Yellow Flame, also from Jessica.I did use two coats of each color.  I topped with a coat of Seche Vite and called it a day.
Man was this a bight mani.  An eye catcher for sure.

Would you rock a neon look?

Indigo Banans Do You Have A Flag?

Hey Howdy Hey!

Today I have another beautiful polish from Indigo Bananas and the Executive Transvestite collection.
I have three polishes from this collection based on the Comedian Eddie Izzard.  You can see my review of the polish Cake or Death here: LINK!

This is called Do You Have A Flag?, the other polish I bought was Executive Transvestite.  The remaining polishes are With A Spoon In It, and Alcatraz.  The whole collection is holographic and some of them have awesome extras thrown in like flakies or added shimmer.

All pictures are three coats over Orly Bonder and Seche Vite top coat.   I have shown different lighting conditions of this polish but sadly bright sunlight isn't one of them.  Since I live in a town known for crazy weather, there was not a day of sun when I was wearing this.  Sorry, I did my best to try and capture the beauty.

On to the pics

Indigo Bananas Cake or Death

Thank you for flying Church of England, Cake or Death?

Let it be known right now that Eddie Izzard is my all time favorite comedian. Ever. I could listen to him all day. When I heard that Indigo Banana had an Eddie Izzard line, I KNEW I had to have them. 

I purchased three of them to start but I hope to get the other two later. I snagged Executive Transvestite, Cake or Death, and Do You Have A Flag?.  

I asked for some opinions on what to use first and Cake or Death won. 

The pictures below are two coats over Orly Bonder and a top coat of HK Girl. 

It was a somewhat easy application. Standard application for a holographic polish. I didn't have to fight this polish at all. 

This first three pictures are inside and the last one is outside in the sun. 

Such a pretty pretty color. A pinkest touch to it plus it has flakes it in too.
