Cupcake: What a Girl Wants


From the Vault!

Cupcake's What a Girl Wants was a polish I won from Crystal's Charity Auctions group on facebook. It is quite a bit darker than the example image in the auction, but I love it nonetheless. :)
Shown is two coats with topcoat. Since it is a glitter, there is a textured finish. If you prefer it to feel like glass, add extra topcoat. :)

The base of this is a blackened purple and it has a navy shifting shimmer and loaded with clear holo glitters.

KBShimmer | Rock This Way

For most children, there is nothing better than a sweet treat. A cool popsicle on a hot day, a handful of candy coated chocolates at the movie theater, candies that turned your mouth a rainbow of colors, candy is king. Pure sugar, vibrant blue color, and berry flavoring, all crystalized on a stick, rock candy and the blue mouths of children that love it is the inspiration for KBShimmer’s first Polish Pick Up shade.

Rock This Way
a vibrant blue raspberry, cobalt blue color. Holo glow flakes float among this bold shade, while blue shimmer adds a pop of brightness to this sweet lacquer. With full coverage in two coats, this 5-free shade is not one to miss for blue polish fans!

The formula was fluid and effortless to apply. Shown is two coats.

I was ecstatic when I saw the included rock candy lollipops in my blogger kit! In my childhood, I would save up my allowance in case we went to a store that had them.

I may or may not have promptly eaten these after their photo shoot was finished. :D
