Rainbow Honey - Sweet Talk

Hey guys,

So lately I noticed a spike in my readership. Not a huge spike but a spike none-the-less, so if you're reading this and you're new, let me just say, Hi! Welcome to my blog, I hope you stick around.

Okay so remember how I was talking about white based glitters? Yay here's another one!
This was from Rainbow Honey's Sweet Talk collection. This one is the collection's namesake. This is gorgeous and chock full of pastel semi-matte glitter.

This is 2 coats, I had absolutely no problems with application on this one. What a great spring colour. This would also be great as a feature nail.

Rainbow Honey - Spirit of Wonder

Hey guys,

Okay so this week I have Rainbow Honey polishes for you!
You've seen a lot of these white based glitters by now but I love them, some people insist they've been done to death but man I love them and no two I have are alike. This one is a perfect shade for winter (of course it's spring now but whatever) The multi blue glitter and there is ever larger white hex glitter buried deep within it that I love. I can't wait to wear this more come winter!

This was from their holiday collection, This is two coats.

Sephora by OPI - Club Scene Queen

Hey guys,

I hope you all are having a great weekend. Today I have the other SOPI polish I picked up at Winners a while ago. This was the one I was really excited about. It's a steely grey blue colour. It is kind of sheer so this is 4 coats, once this builds up it is gorgeous! It reminds me of a night sky, which is silly because I've never seen a night sky like that... okay maybe it reminds me of a night sky from a Disney movie. That makes a little bit more sense.

HITS - Dionisio

Hey guys,

So I'm ending this week of Hits holos with a bang. I really love purple polishes, which is evidenced by my massive collection of purples. This one reminded me a lot of the intensity of Apolo which is probably why I love it so much, there's something about this dark colours with a really intense holo that I just die over.

This is two coats over Aqua base.

Hits really needs to re-release their holos asap so I can do my best to grab the rest of them, I need Atena & Ares!

HITS - Demeter

Hey guys,

So tomorrow I'm riding in this Big Bike Race thing for the Heart & Stroke foundation again, I don't know why they call it a race because you're not racing anyone, it's pretty much just 20 people on one bike riding around downtown. I also have a tattoo consultation tomorrow (shhh. it's a secret). I'll let you know how that goes.

I have the second last Hits holo for you today. This is an orange holo.
This was more sheer so this is three coats over Aqua base. I actually liked this a lot more than I expected since oranges aren't my favourite.

HITS - Hera

Hey guys,

More holo-y goodness for you today. I was reading on an update from Llarowe that Hits is reformulating their polishes so Llarowe won't be getting any more stock of these until the new ones are released. All I can hope for is that they won't make any changes to the names or the colours. (Is that being selfish?) but I really want the chance to grab the rest of these.

I was pretty excited for this teal holo. This is two coats over Aqua Base. I expected the colour on this to be a bit deeper (more like Apolo) I wouldn't say I was disappointed but although this is really pretty it wasn't really what I expected. If teal's are your thing this is a good one to have in your Helmer.

HITS - Afrodite

Hey guys,

So this low buy is killing me. I've been trying really hard not to just go nuts. Last Friday I was playing around on the ipad and of course I found myself on NPC and I had added 12 China Glaze polishes to my cart.... TWELVE! Seriously. Who does that? I managed to stop myself by chanting a mantra of "Vet Bills, Black Milk Leggings, Tattoos," over and over again, with a "I am the blood of the Dragon," for good measure. Geez, when did my polish addiction get so bad that suddenly dropping $100 on polish is nothing. 

For this week's edition of "On Wednesday's We Wear Pink!" I have another Hits holo for you guys today, this is Afrodite, as in Aphrodite the goddess of love & beauty. Now when I think of Aphrodite I always imagine her as this yeah I watched a lot of Hercules and Xena growing up. 

This pink was a little on the sheer side so this is three coats. I used Nfu Oh's aqua base for this, as I do with all my linear holos. This shade of pink wasn't too excited with my skin tone so next time I might layer this over black to see what happens.
