Road to Polish Con: LynB Designs and Pretty Jelly

Press Sample

The Road to Polish Con is back as a preview for the September 23rd 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.



The Violet of Shy-Town - Violet polish with Holo flakes and pink to gold shifting shimmer





Lights & Theatrics - warm red holo with fine gold shimmer and blue/pink shimmer flakes. Inspired by the Chicago Theatre marquee





Both polishes cover well and could potentially be one coaters, but I've used two due to bright lighting. Formula for each was smooth and easy to apply, no issues to report.

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 9/10-9/16.

Join the Polish Con facebook group if you haven't already, get your tickets to Con and be in the know!

Shimmer Me Box: Fall In Love

Press Sample

The Shimmer Me Box launched today, September 1 and will be for sale for one week. The theme this time is Fall In Love and the guest brand is Savannah Lacquer.
The September Shimmer Me Box comes with a free mystery polish from Native War Paints, so you'll get a total of five polishes. I didn't receive the mystery polish, so it shall remain a mystery!



Savannah Lacquer - Take Me Apple Picking - Red polish with green shimmer and scattered Holo with a dash of silver Holo microglitter
This was my first time trying this brand and I noticed this polish has a different odor than most. It reminds me of the base ILNP used when she first started out.





CbL - Falling to Pieces - Deep royal blue with aqua shimmer
Such a rich deep toned blue and wow, that shimmer! The shimmer is more apparent in different lighting, bringing out and almost teal look to the polish. Loving this!





Tux Polish - Love Potion No. Wine - Concord grape purple with holo sparkle, pink micro glitter, and blue and copper shimmer.
Quite sparkly!





NWP - Lay in the Fallen Leaves - Nude polish with red/orange/yellow shifting shimmer
This brand hasn't made a polish yet that I didn't love. I was skeptical about this one after seeing the bottle, but when I put it on -- magic!





All four polishes are shown in two coats and have fantastic formulas. I'm really loving the rich depth and glowy-ness of the CBL in this box.
