Swatchy spam because reasons.

Shimmer Me Box: Summer Vamp

Press Sample

The next release of the Shimmer Me Box is August 11, at 11am Central and its theme is Summer Vamp!
The box with guest, Girly Bits, is packed with vampy polishes in blue, red, and purple and are sure to sparkle like Edward!



Girly Bits - What the Hex - inky blue crelly with a violet-copper-orange shimmer, and a violet to copper duochrome shft.





CbL - The Lady is a Vamp - blackened oxblood with gold, red, burgundy shifting Shimmer with a touch of shifting flake and holo.





Tux Polish - Don't Be Jealous - Dark purple with green shimmer, holo, and micro glitter.





NWP - Vamping Up - dark red leaning purple with copper shimmer.





All four polishes are shown in two coats and have fantastic formulas. I'm really loving the jelly like squish of the CBL and Girly Bits, but I think my favorite of this box is the NWP. Purple/copper combos steal my heart every time.

Pick up your own box of summer vamps August 11th, 11am central at nativewarpaints.com.

Road to Polish Con: Scofflaw, Leesha's Lacquer, Supernatural

Press Sample

The Road to Polish Con is back as a preview for the September 23 Polish Con event in Chicago. I am delighted to be involved again as both Director of the event and Official RTPC Blogger! If you missed the NYC Road to Polish Con, you can find photos and links here.

I and five other “official” Polish Con Bloggers and Swatchers are sharing each polish with you first! We'll adventure together down the Road to Polish Con every Thursday for a full eleven weeks.
The polishes release Sunday morning at 8am central, will be available to pre-order for one week, and then the shop is refreshed with different polishes for the next launch.



Scofflaw Charlotte Spinning in the Stars
a nightsky-grey crelly base, packed with tons of silver shimmer and flecks, as well as silver, gunmetal, black, and matte navy glitters. It's finished off with blue sparkle highlights of several shades.





Leesha's Lacquer Pier Pressure
A black with a slight purple shimmer with orange/pink flakies and a scattered holo

I sponged on the second layer of this polish to show the flakies better for photos. I also sandwiched a coat of gelous between coats of quick dry topcoat to get a glassy smooth shine. The flakes weren't textured to the touch, but there were visible spots shown in the macro shot that looked sunken where the flakes were. Difficult to describe, but additional clear/top fixed that right up.





Supernatural Funhouse
S purple base with a purple/blue/red/gold shift and hot pink/orange/gold flakies






Each of these polishes have good formulas and easy application with little clean up. Shown is two coats for each polish pictured.

I hope you've enjoyed the review and photos - snag yours this Sunday morning after 8am Central over at http://polishconvention.bigcartel.com/products. They're available 8/6-8/12, and if you haven't already, join the Polish Con facebook group to stay informed.
