Square Hue nail tape design

Hi ladies, Happy Friday eve lol. Today I have a mani using polishes from my monthly Square Hue subscription. If you don't already know it's a polish group that sends you 3 random polishes every month for $22. Just like with Julep there's no lock in obligation you can cancel it at anytime. www.squarehue.com.

This collection is called the "O'Hue" collection consisting of a champagne color (Blonde Ale), emerald color "Patty's Pint" and a Copper color "Amber Lager". I decided this time to go all out using the nail tape for a design. I'm proud of myself for doing the design on all nails and on both hands (toot toot).

Love & Beauty Forever

Hi ladies, talk about getting the fever, all of these mainstream brands are catching the indie fever for the glitter in the makings of their polishes. I've had these for about a month now but you can still pick these up at any XXI Forever 21.
These are milky based glitter polishes that are pretty friendly and durable for polishes priced under $5.

Only bummer to these polishes is that there aren't any coolster names related to them.

Bettina "Picnic" Swatch

Hi ladies, today I have some Bettina swatches to share with you. I was able to get these early via Janet the rep for Bettina Cosmetics. She is that "go to" lady for Bettina purchases if you aren't in the Miami area. Bettina polishes are mainly sold in Miami and Puerto Rico but there are ways to getting them if you aren't in the vicinity. This Picnic collection is already available in PR, per Janet this is will be available in Miami by the end of this month.

This set of polishes are a cream-shimmer formula which is very easy to apply void of streaking during application. I applied 3 coats for opaque satisfaction and one coat of top coat.

New Hard Candy polish Swatch

Hi ladies, hope you're all having a relaxing Sunday! As for me I got a swatch-a-thon going on in my room. As you can see I scored some Hard Candy polishes that's got all us polishnatics in a frenzy.

Jumping right into the deets, I was stoked to try these out because of the brand's sudden interest in the indie glitter polish look. I am not dissatisfied with any of my pick ups. What I've pictured are 3 coats of each model w/o a top coat.

The polishes all give an even distribution upon application. I applied a thin coat, let it dry and then 2 more. They're $4 a pop, thanks to a Walmart gift card I was able to get all the ones I wanted.

"Jelly Bean Blue"

"Peach Pop"

"Gummy Green"

"Cotton Candy Pink"

"Sugar Rush"

"Pink Taffy"

"Black Tie Optional"

*Black Tie Optional is a dupe to China Glaze's "Whirled Away".

Sweet Tooth & Mardi Gras

Hi ladies, hope you are having a great start of the week. Today I have another member of the Sinful Colors Sugar Rush collection that I haven't swatched, this is called Sweet Tooth.

This is a pretty lavender color polish that's smooth in formula and dries glossy, you can top it off with a top coat if you like of course.

The glitter layover is a polish from Ruby Kisses HD called "Mardi Gras", it has silver tinsel glitter with purple fine glitters in it.
I was looking through my Frankens and I spotted one I made just like it called "Vabulous", smh, hey great minds think alike right!!

You can get this RK HD polish in any Beauty Supply store for .99.

Gypsy

Hi ladies and happy Friday to you. Today I have a color changing polish by Ruby Wing to share with you called "Gypsy". I picked this up at the Urban Outfitters store in the clearance bin for $1. I think they're a pretty cool brand and the formula changing indoor and outdoor seems fun.

Below are pics of indoor, indoor flash and outside color. You can also find these polishes for $8 on transdesign.com
