Cute Kitty Nail Art

Another quick and easy mani today :)

I saw a cute photo on my personal Facebook news feed the other day and just had to copy it on my nails.... Even my personal friends are not safe from me!!

Anyway I used Cream Puff by CND Vinylux as the base on all fingers. I then topped the index and little finger with Sick Lacquers Scatterbrains. The cute kitty is hand painted with acyclic paints and a small brush called Edinburgh Realism Grace 9.

I am thinking about taking a small break from blogging. I will continue to post when I can but I think it will only be about once a week. I feel I have not been bringing my best game so will go away for a bit and try and improve things for you all. 

See you all soon

Yume Lacquer Rainbow Heart Review, Swatches and Nail Art!

PRESS SAMPLE 
Today I have my last Yume Lacquer to show you. I have saved my favourite polish until last.

Rainbow Heart is described as "A medium rosy pink with a slight golden shimmer and holographic microglitter" on Yumelacquer.com and I couldn't have  described it better myself, LOL. It is part of the Moon Defender Collection and is inspired by Sailor Moon. 

This polish isn't unlike Pink Lady, you can see my review HERE, but I would say the main difference is that Pink Lady is verging on neon but this is much more of a rosy muted pink shade. I absolutely adore it! 

These photos show two thick coats with top coat.

Yume Lacquer Pink Lady Swatch and Review

PRESS SAMPLE

Hi my lovelies. I haven't blogged in what feels like forever but it in fact has only been a few days. Things are moving in a tiring slow motion here. An endless round of school runs and naughty boys.

Anyway.... I have Yume Lacquer on the blog again today, you may remember some swatches from a while back, You can see them here, here, here and finally here

Yume Lacquer is a about as geeky as they come, in the polish world that is! And that sure isn't a bad thing! Amanda, the creator of Yume Lacquer, bases her polishes on anime and manga. 
Today we have Pink Lady. a salmon pink shade which is bordering on neon. It has micro holographic glitter. 
This polish is inspired by Chibi Usa/ Sailor Chibimoon and comes from the Moonlight Defender collection.

I added some brand related art, in a Tips and Topcoat style but obviously not as good! I need to get more brush practice in.

Yume Lacquer Flame Warrior


 That's right I'm back from the dead! 

Well not literally but that's the way it bloody felt! 
For the second time this year I have been struck down by flu! 

I hate flu. I mean who doesn't? 
The only goo thing abut flu is that i am now 8lb lighter and closer to my weight loss goal! RESULT! 


Yume Lacquer sent me some lovely polishes to review and they have been sat on the top of my Helmer for what seems like forever so tonight I bring you

FLAME WARRIOR






All the polishes from Yume Lacquer are based on game or comic characters. This one is based on Sailor Mars from Sailor Moon.

This one is a strange one. I expected to be red red but its like a darker plum red. 

It features a purple micro glitter which catches the light and is noticeable. 
It actually dries matte so I used one coat of topcoat for the pics here. I think one more coat of topcoat would have made this even nicer. 
The application of this is great, 2 standard coats in these pics. 

I think this is one of those polishes that you wouldn't be able to get on the high street and I love that not all indie look alike, although some are starting too...


So what do you think of this Yume Lacquer? I have 4 more to show you soon......

Please check out their ETSY store and FACEBOOK Page and show some Life in Lacquer love <3
