St. Patrick's Day

Hey guys!

Happy St. Patrick's Day everyone! I hope you are all wearing green today - I am in the form of nail polish (naturally).
Today I have a swatch and review of Dance Legend Top Magnetic for you guys.
Top Magnetic is a silvery grey magnetic top coat.

The formula was great - smooth and really easy to apply. The top coat is supplied with a magnet with diagonal lines, which works perfectly! You just have to hold it over the wet polish for 10 seconds or so and the silver particles all line up nicely to create the magnetic effect.
The magnetic effect is very strong and clean, provided you hold the magnet still for the 10 seconds.
Down below the Top Magnetic is shown over the green polish Essie Pretty Edgy.

Dance Legend Top Magnetic is really awesome because it makes any one of your polishes into a magnetic!
What do you girls think of that? Let me know in the comments!

By K. Imperial Collection

Hi girls!

Today I have swatches and reviews of the Danish nail polish brand By K.'s Imperial collection.
The collection consists of a beautiful crelly polish, an amazing glitter top coat and an awesome metallic polish!

First off I would like to tell you guys a little bit about the brand By K.
By K. is a Danish nail polish brand established in March 2012. The brand only produces nail polishes without any critical substances that were tested on animals. Their polishes are Cruelty Free, vegan and 5-Free, which I think is pretty amazing!

THE SKY IS THE LIMIT
A classic red nail polish - so beautiful.
The formula on this one was amazing and the opacity was fantastic as well - one quick coat and you are good to go!

SUPER NOVA
A mix of silver holographic small and hexagon glitters in a clear base - so awesome!
The formula of this polish was amazing - not too thick and not too thin, so the glitter pay-off was fantastic as well.
Below I used one coat of Super Nova over The Sky is the Limit.

MOON DUST
A gorgeous silver metallic.
The formula was great - it was nice and buttery and I only needed two thin coats for it to be completely opaque.

Overall I love this collection - the polishes are all fantastic and they go great with each other! I am going to do some nail art with these polishes together really soon, so stay tuned.

OPI Couture de Minnie Collection

Hello ladies!

Today I have swatched and reviewed OPI's second Minnie Mouse Collection - The Couture de Minnie Collection.
The collection includes three gorgeous shimmers, an awesome glitter and a beautiful liquid sand, all in the girly light pink to red colour scheme.

INNIE MINNIE MIGHTIE BOW
A red polish with a shimmer running throughout.
The formula on this one was great - a little on the thin side, but really opaque. It was almost a one-coater, but below I used two coats to be on the safe side.
I love this polish - a classic red with a little extra!

MAGAZINE COVER MOUSE
A strawberry red liquid sand nail polish with different colours of shimmers within - gold and pink being the most visible ones. So beautiful!
The formula was great - a little on the thick side, but that only made it easier to apply. The opacity was great as well. For the photo below I used two coats.

A DEFINITE MOUST-HAVE
A hot pink with a pearlescent-like shimmer running throughout.
The formula was good - a little on the thin side, but it was nice, creamy and really opaque. Like Innie Minnie Mightie Bow it was almost an one-coater, but I used two coats for the photo below.

CHIC FROM EARS TO TAIL
A light bubblegum pink with a very, very subtle shimmer.
The formula was okay - nice and buttery, but the opacity was really bad - I needed four coats for it be opaque enough.

MINNIE STYLE
Magenta and white hexagon and square glitters in a clear base - so awesome!
The formula on this one was great, but the glitter pay-off wasn't. I feel like the best way to apply this polish, is to dab on the glitters in the desired areas of the nail. For the photo below I used one to two coats over Chic from Ears to Tail.

All in all I really like this collection - amazing colours and great formulas.

Lemming Part II

Hello again ladies!

Yesterday I swatched Dance Legend's Gold Leaf top coat - today I am swatching their Silver Leaf top coat.

The formula of the top coat was great and so was the flakes of glitter pay-off! Just perfect!
Down below I used one coat over the blue nail polish OPI Dating a Royal.

I am in love with the two (Gold Leaf and Silver Leaf) top coats from Dance Legend - they are both pretty over almost any colour and they both have great formulas.
What do you girls think of them? Let me know in the comments!

Lemming

Hello ladies!

Some of you might remember my lemming for the Dance Legend Gold Leaf top coat. Well, I finally got it and today I tried it on!

The formula of the top coat was good - a little on the thin side, so I expected the flakes of glitter pay-off to be bad, but fortunately it was really good!
Down below I used one coat over the red nail polish Essie Lollipop.

This colour scheme really reminds me of China!

Waterfall

Hey girls!

I have been wanting to make a waterfall manicure for a long time now, so today I finally made one!

I started off with a light blue base of Essie Bikini so Teeny. Afterwards I followed this tutorial by Sam at The Nailasaurus, using the following colours: Essie Blue Rhapsody, Sally Hansen Pacific Blue, OPI Dating a Royal and Essie After School Boy Blazer.

I really love this manicure! It is definitely not the last time I am making a waterfall manicure!

Dance Legend Boggs

Hi guys!

I just couldn't get enough of the duochrome-effect, so today I decided to try on, swatch and review another polish from Dance Legend's Chameleon Collection - Dance Legend Boggs.
Boggs is an intense duochrome nail polish with a blue base and purple/pink color shifts - in extreme angles also orange/yellow colour shifts, but unfortunately I could not catch that on camera.

The formula was good - a little sheer and streaky on the first coat, but very easily buildable and opaque with two to three coats, depending on how you polish.
The duochrome-effect was really good - and I mean REALLY good! In extreme angles the purple colour shift make the polish appear a completely different colour than the blue base.
For the picture below I used two coats and top coat.

I have to repeat myself and say: I am in love with the duochrome effect in this polish! I cannot stop staring at it!
