I've got five beautiful polishes from the Spring colors to show you all today. I have to admit, when they contacted me about doing this, I had a hard time deciding which ones I wanted to review. So many beautiful colors from SinfulColors this Spring. 

This Tuesday, I have a treat for you all! My birthday was back in December, and my wonderful friend sent me the ultimate gift. Louboutin Rouge. I was in shock! When I opened the box and saw what was in it, I admit, I cried. I was so happy and beyond touched that someone got be such a beautiful, and expensive, polish. She's such a wonderful friend, and spoils me so! 

Look at that bottle!! It's so beautiful and intimidating at the same time! I can't stop staring at it. You ready to see this stunner?

I'm back!! After a fun couple weeks with the family I spent yesterday with a major swatch fest so I've got some fun stuff to show you all this week.

It's the first Monday in August, so I thought I'd kick off this week with a post I know a lot of you had been waiting for...Zoya's Naturel Deux Collection. If you missed the first collection, you can see my swatches HERE. The Naturel Collections are full of perfect brown and plum toned nudes in different shades. I loved the first Naturel Collection but Naturel Deux Collection blows it out of the water! Take a peek at their 2014 Transitional Collection.

It's the first day of August!! And have I got an exciting post for you all today! Recently, Barielle asked me what products of theirs would I use for the perfect manicure. This was such a fun idea and opportunity it took me a while to really figure out what would make the "perfect" Barielle manicure.

It's the end of July already?!?!?! WHAT?! Why is this year going by so fast?! My daughter is starting kindergarten in less than a month. This is just making me depressed! So let's get back to polish. Polish makes me happy. Polish doesn't leave me and run off to school when it turns five years old.

Happy Tuesday, everyone!! As you can see, I've got a beautiful collection inspired by the lovely movie Kiki's Delivery Service. (If you haven't seen it, it's worth tossing into your Netflix DVD queue!!) It's a wonderful flick, and really anything from Hayao Miyazaki is amazing and totally worth your time.

It's day 5, and the final day, of Cameo Colours Lacquers Week. To end this wonderful week with a bang, I've got a preview of her new collection that is releasing tonight! The new group of beauties is called the Many Splendored Thing Collection. It's got a fun little story behind it. She mixed up this beautiful topper and her daughter told her it should be called True Love's Kiss. With the way her new website is set up, it's difficult to add single polishes so she decided to work a collection around it. I've had an idea for a polish that I gave her (just wait until you see Soul Mates!!) and it fit perfectly. All-in-all it's a beautiful 7 polish collection consisting of 3 toppers, 3 solids, and one that could go either way.

Introducing the Many Splendored Thing Collection from Cameo Colours Lacquers!!

Perfect as every day go-to colors, the Zoya NATUREL DEUX (2) collection bridges the transitional gap between late summer/early fall 2014 with three, rich brown family shades and three plum based beauties. All in the long-wearing, BIG5FREE formula Zoya is known for!

I can't believe it's already the last day of June!! Where has this year gone?! So crazy! Well, today is another short and sweet post. It's the only undies I used that wasn't in another post. I might have posted about this one before, but things have improved around here since the last time, so you get to see it again!

Yesterday I showed you all some swatches of a couple Sally Hansen Xtreme Wear polishes. While I was swatching, I thought I'd have a little fun with them and decided to play with some glitter toppers. 

**The featured product in this post was purchased by me with my own money. All opinions are my own. I was not compensated.**

I had never purchased any of the Xtreme Wear line from Sally Hansen before. Then all this hubbub about the changing of formulas and colors had me intrigued. So, I went out and snagged a bottle of Coral Reef and Pacific Blue old formulas. Now, I had to go to several different stores to find them, no one here seemed to carry either of these colors. I finally came across Coral Reef at Target and the 3rd CVS I went to had a couple original formula Pacific Blues hidden behind the new formulas. I have to say, I do no like the new formula Pacific Blue after seeing it. I have a theory though, but it can't be confirmed until I actually try the new formulas.

Happy Monday, lovelies!!! In honor of the KDrama pre-sale this past weekend, I thought I would swatch my very first polish from Rescue Beauty. I recently realized I hadn't swatched it here and it's a damn shame! This is the first polish that made me really notice Rescue Beauty. Once you see it, you'll see why!

It's Friday!!! As much as this week seemed to be dragging early on, once Wednesday hit it just flew by! Anyway, onto the good stuff! I had a lull of things to review, so I dug through my stash to find something I've had some fun with but might not have shown you all. I came across this beauty from Nail Pattern Boldness. I received it in a swap and somehow it was put in with regular polishes and I hadn't used it yet. Shocker! I had Ninja vs. Pirate for almost a year and hadn't used it. I could kick myself!!

Well, the week is halfway over, and to be honest, this week has been taking it's sweet time! I don't know why but it just seems to be dragging. I decided to do a nice short post today! 

Did you guys know that Pacifica started selling nail polish?! Not only that, but it's 7 FREE. Yes, 7! That means it doesn't have parabens, phthalates, toluene, xylene, camphor, formaldehyde, and resin. They have 25 beautiful shades and 2 top coats (clear and matte). I've got two of that 25 to show you today. Trust me, have your credit card handy!

It's Tuesday, and so many of my friends posted that they were watching The Goonies this weekend. I knew it was a sign. So, here is the lovely Goonies inspired collection from Cinema Swatch Lacquers! I just had 2 posts from Cinema Swatch Lacquers, but this one couldn't wait any longer.

Last week, I got to show you all swatches of the beautiful colors of the Keys Collection from Barielle. I decided to play around a bit. I'm not great at nail art, but sometimes I feel like giving it a go. This was one of those times. I didn't do anything fancy, but it was fun! Check it out!

Holy cow, you guys!! This new collection from Barielle is beautiful! The summer 2014 set of six is called the Keys Collection. "The Keys Collection celebrates the warm, sun-filled, tropical beach days enjoyed all over the world. These beautiful, creamy, high-fashion colors set the mood for paradise vacations." As you scroll through the colors you can definitely see the tropics in the inspiration. It will make you want to book a vacation too so proceed at your own risk! ;o)

I've had this mini set for a bit and it just kept getting covered up. Boy, oh boy, how I've been kicking myself for doing that!! Yes, this set of four don't look like anything special, but Essie has stepped up their game and has improved formulas! I was one of the people who shunned Essie for the longest time, only breaking my vow when I saw a color I just had to have. When the press release of the Spring 2014 Resort Collection arrived in my email box, I was done for. I knew there was something special here.

I was down in North Carolina visiting my mom a couple months ago and had picked up a few polishes by Milani while down there. My stores don't get in the good stuff from them and their displays stay empty (or at least they always are when I go in), so when I saw these while I was down there, I knew I had to get some. The bag these were in got misplaced, which it why it took me so long to swatch these, but OMG are these creme formulas fantastic! Keep reading to see more!
