Glisten & Glow Serenity in Spring Collection

Hello readers!! Today's post is a new spring collection from Glisten & Glow. These cremes are a great take on spring colors, and I love the theme and names of them. They are all more of a dusty muted version of the spring colors that we all know and love. I really like this entire collection, and the formulas were all great on them. Easy to apply, self leveling, and all opaque in 2 coats. This collection will be released in the Glisten & Glow shop here on March 18th at 9pm Est. So make sure you grab yours! You won't be disappointed! Let's get to the polish!

Polish 'M Spring 2016 Prototypes

Hello readers! Today I have a super quick, and short post for you. I'm going to keep it short in the sense that, I'm not going to be going into full descriptions of each of these polishes like I usually do. These are the Polish 'M Spring Prototypes and they will be releasing today at 2pm PST in the Polish 'M shop here. I just wanted to get these posted before launch so that they can all be seen in one spot and you can decide which ones you'll be snagging. I will tell you though, Michelle, who is the creator behind Polish 'M, makes me absolute favorite crellies ever... and no matter what you decide to go with today, you won't be disappointed. All of the formulas on these are so smooth and easy to apply. I didn't have any issues with the amount of glitter that transfers to the nail. I used three coats with top coat for all of these. So let's check them out!
 
Spring Prototype 21 is a lavender based crelly with a spring variety of glitters and a bit of shimmer.

Girly Bits Defying Gravity

 
Hello Readers!! Today's post features one of my favorite brands, from one of my favorite makers, Girly Bits! I enjoy getting the chance to talk with and catch up with Pam, the maker of Girly Bits every year at cosmoprof. If I can manage to get out for the meet ups this year, I hope I get the chance to see her again! Let's get straight in to this beautiful polish though!
 
"Defying Gravity", is a bright purple polish, with turquoise shimmer and a little bit of holographic sparkle. Let me just say, that when I pulled this baby out to put it on... I was floored! This color is absolutely stunning! Formula was great, and easy to apply. I used three thin coats for my pictures. This post makes me want to take this beauty out and use it again now! *Heart Eyes Emoji*

Fair Maiden Polish Just A Mirage

 
Hello readers!! Today's post is a new to me brand, Fair Maiden Polish. I have to say, I think I am in love with this brand, even from just this single polish. I managed to miss out on meeting this brand at cosmoprof last year but wish I would have had a chance to meet them. Maybe this year they'll be back :-) Anywho, I want to share this gorgeous polish with you right away though. Let's get to the polish!
 
"Just A Mirage", is a deep burgundy wine color, with extreme linear holo. I really love this shade, especially on me. The formula was smooth and easy to apply. I didn't have any issues with this polish at all. I used two coats with top coat for my pictures.
