Pretty & Polished Jawbreaker

The moment I saw Jawbreaker, I just had to have it and I swear, this was the polish that started my love for multi-coloured glitters in a white base!

Jawbreaker, named after the sweet, has the classic colors, blue, red, purple, green and yellow, in the form of different glitter shapes and sizes, all in a milky pinkish-white base.

Because I only got the small bottle (my full-sized one was still on it's way to me when this post was being drafted), I didn't want to use any more of this delicious polish than I had to so I painted a this coat of China Glaze White on White before doing two coats of Jawbreaker on top, as well as a coat of SV to smooth out the surface.



Here's two close up shots!






I didn't really have to fish around and strategically place any glitters with Jawbreaker, though if you noticed, I only managed to get one red square on my (ten) nails. I have a feeling all the red squares in my bottle have decided to adhere to the glass wall and refused to come out and play!

Here's one last picture of the bottle for the road!



I'm absolutely loving this P&P and I can't wait to swatch the rest! Till next time! :)

KBShimmer All Decked Out

So this is Christmas and what have you done,
Another year over, a new one just begun.

And so this is Christmas, I hope you have fun,
The near and the dear ones, the old and the young.

A very merry Christmas and a happy New Year
Let's hope it's a good one without any fears.

MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE!

Today I have KBShimmer All Decked Out to show you and to start the mani off, I did two coats of Orly Wandering Vine.



And now for the star of the show, this is two coats of All Decked Out on top of Wandering Vine.



I love love love how jolly this looks! I haven't felt such a strong Christmas vibe for a couple of years and I think this year's more special because I'm working and I cherish the public holiday more! HA! ;)





Have a happy holiday y'all! :)

Christmas Eve Nails

HEYHEY!

It's Christmas Eve today and my company gave us the day off. That's probably why I sound so happy! :) This morning, I woke up and decided to do some Christmas nails for the Christmas party I'm going to tonight! 

This is two coats of Winter Holly. The first coat went on pretty sparse so I'm actually surprised it managed to become opaque in two coats.



I love how fuzzy Winter Holly looks sans topcoat, really looks like a Christmas tree!



With a topcoat on, the gold holographic bits start shining through.



Winter Holly is such a festive polish! Perfect shade for Christmas!



Here's a close up shot. Pretty pretty pretty!



I decided to add an accent nail to spice things up with piCture pOlish White Wedding and China Glaze Ruby Pumps with a striping brush.



Here's a close up of White Wedding. I'm loving how the tiny irridescent flakies make the polish so much more delicate, instead of a boring flat white polish.



The glitter in Ruby Pumps reminds me of cranberry bits in some turkey sauce! It looks so delicious! 



That's all for my Christmas Eve mani! Hope you guys have jolly plans for Christmas!
