Catrice “Arts Collection” collection PREVIEW

Catrice has a new collection coming out called “Arts Collection”. Here is what Catrice has to say about it:

Limited Edition “Arts Collection” by CATRICE

Art Gallery: unique elements of style and characteristic patterns from three different eras. The Limited Edition “Arts Collection” by CATRICE takes you on a journey through the history of art and pays homage to days gone by. The current fashion shows are also experiencing a renaissance of the “more is more” attitude: richly embroidered robes, heavy brocade cloths and contrasting metallic elements adorn the inspiring designs. In this limited edition elaborate opulence, impressive effects and perfectly aligned colours honour the epochs of art nouveau, baroque and art deco. The spirit of each period is reflected in the corresponding unique make-up palette – available from October to November 2013 – and invites its wearer to a true vernissage of beauty. A new opulence – by CATRICE.

Eye and Face Palette:

Each artfully decorated “Arts Collection“ Eye and Face Palette contains: six powder eyeshadows with various effects, a blush shade for a fresh complexion, a highlighter for that extra special glow as well as black eyeliner and an applicator. The colour schemes of the eyeshadows range from rosé and rosewood shades to green and gold nuances to copper and anthracite tones. The design boxes have the look of a collector’s item and reflect the special characteristics of each era: playful ornaments for baroque, floral patterns and curvy contours for art nouveau and clearly defined geometric structures for art deco.

Nail polish:

My very own nail polish room!

Hallo my Lovelies,

I disappeared on you again and I'm sorry about that. I've been so busy with work, buying new stuff for the house and remodeling that I've had no time to paint my nails (Pouts) believe me I've missed it!!!

As the heading says I've finally got my own nail room (excited) Now I have my nail polish all in one place and not strode over the whole house.

as you can see I choose black and white (I think they look so elegant together)

Hubby was so sweet and helped me with everything. (awwwwww) Here he is putting the highboard together.

I LOVE THIS MAN! HE'S SO GOOD TO ME!!!!!!!

Now I need to try and fit all of my babies on the shelfs. Let me just tell you I DON'T have much room anymore.

I'm still waiting on my new chair to come in.

I love how everything turned out. I still need a few things like curtains, plants, ceiling light and a bit of deco. I can't tell you how many times I've walked into my room just to ohhhhhh & ahhhhh.

So what do you think? Do you have a nail room and if so what color/colors?

Thanks for looking.

Review: Sweet Tips Nails Gooey Cream Egg

Hallo My Lovelies,

I have a new Sweet Tips Nails called Gooey Cream Egg to show you. As you can guess Gooey Cream Egg is a Easter inspired polish :)

Gooey Cream Egg is a clear base with brown, red, yellow, blue and white glitter in all different shapes and sizes.

Here is what Jen has to say about Gooey Cream Egg. "Gooey Cream Egg was inspired by my favorite Easter treat - Cadbury Cream Eggs! I mixed the yummy chocolate treat with the gooey white and yellow middle with the colors of its foil wrapper to come up with this unique polish that looks great over most colors."

I did a skittle mani for this beauty. I used China Glaze Re- Fresh Mint, Peachy Keen, Sugar High, Grape Pop and Lemon Fizz then I used 2 thin coats of Gooey Cream Egg. I did have to use 1 coat of Glitter food to get a smooth finish but other then that everything was easy peasy! LOL

So what do you think about Gooey Cream Egg?

To buy Gooey Cream Egg or any other Sweet Tips Nails polish go to Jen's Esty shop or check out her FaceBook page to get updates on up coming polishes or restock info.

Hallo My Lovelies,

Today I want to share Joe Fresh Mallard Colvert, OMG I'm in love with this polish!!! Everyone knows I LOVE me some green polish ;)

Mallard Colvert is a beautiful Forest Green with a Jelly finish. Love at first sight!!!!

It went on sheer the first coat, so I added a second coat. As you can see 2 thin coats are perfect!

Review: Sweet Tips Nails 24 Carrots

Hallo My Lovelies,

Today I have a beautiful Easter/Spring polish to show you from Sweet Tips Nails called 24 Carrots

Here is what Jen from Sweet Tips Nails says about 24 Carrots "24 Carrots is a spring-y mix of various shades, shapes and sizes of orange and green, inspired, of course, by a bunny's favorite food - carrots!"

24 Carrots- is a clear base thats packed with different size and shape green and orange glitter- there's hexes, squares, circles and bars.

I can't really say I like the undies I picked out for 24 Carrots :( I'm going have to try it with a sparkling orange or maybe a green? I'm not sure yet.

What I can say is " I LOVE 24 CARROTS!!!!" It is so Eastery/Springy which we need here, since it's still snowing :( 

24 Carrots went on super easy with no problems, The formula was easy to work with and I only needed 2 thin coats. I used to 2 coats of 24 Carrots over 2 coats of Basic 329 (Peach color) then 1 coat of Glitter Food and last but not least 1 coat of HK top coat.

So what do you think about 24 Carrots? Do you have any Sweet Tips Nails polishes and if so what do you think about them?

To buy 24 Carrots or any other Sweet Tips Nails polish go to Jen's Esty shop or check out her FaceBook page to get updates on up coming polishes or restock info.
