Jellies!!!!!!

I do love the jelly polish. I think it's my favorite finish. Jellies tend to look like colored glass on the nails. Here are some of my favorites...

New York Summer Amaranth


Zoya Casey (I added a bit of clear to this one to make it a little more jelly-ish)


Lippmann Rehab. I die. This is one of the most gorgeous polishes I own. It's a lovely muted medium blue jelly. Never looks black, looks amazing in any light.


Zoya Juicy. It's like I dipped my nails into the grape jelly that my Nana makes!


Lethal Franken - Low Tide. I made this little creation using New York Summer Hot Sky Blue, Wet n Wild Clear and a bit of Wet n Wild Black Creme. I stole the idea from Dr. Frankenpolish. Mine didn't turn out exactly like her's but I was pleased with the result.


Misa Cherry Topping. The perfect red jelly. PERFECT.


Essie Pama.


Claire's Chunky Blue (over 1 coat of Nfu Oh 119). Funky glitter in a blue jelly base. I love this one! It applies nicely for a chunky glitter.


Nfu Oh 119. Deep dark blue jelly. This one is a close close twin to Illamasqua Propaganda. It's freakin fabulous. One day I'll get around to a comparison of the two.


Bonus pic...Nfu Oh 51 over 119:


That's all for now folks...see you soon!

Bloom & BYS Polishes from Australia!!!

A lovely MUAer was kind enough to swap with me all the way from Australia. So now I finally own Bloom Polishes!!! Not to mention the most gorgeous teal jelly ever!

This here is Bloom Mena:


This one looks super-fantastically holo-ish in the bottle, but not so much on the nail =(


Here is the lovely Miss Bianca


Bloom Bianca is a gorgeous, super pigmented Teal / Green Duochrome. This is 2 coats


Application was very nice on the Blooms. No streaking or clumping at all...smooth and easy. The brush is a little long and a little thin for my taste...but not bad.

So...if I could dream up a perfect jelly, it would be teal...and wouldn't you know it, the only teal jelly I have ever seen was an Australia exclusive.

So here is my dream polish....BYS Dark Teal (This is 3 coats)


Nice application and the formula was great! It dried pretty fast, but not so fast that I had to hurry to paint my whole nail.


That's all for now....see you soon!
