GlitterDaze 4th Birthday Gift Set Swatches & Review

Good day to you fair dear! Let's hope this week is better than the last one. At least in my case, haha! Today I have the gift set from GlitterDaze for the 4th Birthday of their brand to show you! This set includes two holographic nail polishes, a cuticle balm, and a hand fizzy.

GlitterDaze Birthday Kisses is inspired by the Pantone 2016 Color of the Year, Rose Quartz. It's a warm light pink linear holographic shade with shifting iridescent blue glass fleck shimmers. Thin consistency but easy to apply. Two coats for opacity.

GlitterDaze Make A Wish is inspired by the other Pantone 2016 Color of the Year, Serenity. It's a medium periwinkle linear holographic with color shifting iridescent pink shimmer. Same formula as Birthday Kisses, this is two coats.

The cuticle balm included is unscented, which is a bummer for me. I would've love a cake batter scented balm! But it works well and you get a nice amount for a "sample" size. It's stiff but melts into the skin quickly and give nice moisture without being greasy.

The hand fizzy is scented, yay, with a lovely birthday cake scent! I love the little sprinkles and the heart shape! It is a bit on the crumbly side, but not extremely so. If you don't know, this is a type of "manicure bomb" used for adding to warm water and soaking your hands in as a moisture treatment. This worked well in terms of fizzing and moisturization, a nice treat for your hands or feet!

This box is available now on the GlitterDaze website for $24 or you can purchase the individual polishes for $12 each. Let me know what you think about this box! Are you interested in picking it up? Can you believe this is their 4th year of making polish? My how time flies!

Birthday Girl

Salutations luvers! I just wanted to pop in and say hello before my day is over. I turned 25 years old today and was absolutely pummeled with love from every direction via people I know in real life and folks that I have met from blogging. Thank you so much to everyone who tweeted me, wrote on my Facebook, or commented on my blog today wishing me a happy birthday!! Even if you didn't, thanks for reading this right now and coming back to see my swatches and read my drivel once in a while. It means so much to me. I'll be back with more nail polish soon. *squishes you all in a big mushy hug*

Keep smiling and I will too ☺

locavore

glitter, glitz, glam! i'm a glitter girl alright, but not just any glitter. i like the finer things in life. a lot of the glitter polishes out there look cheap and tacky and wear for about two seconds before they chip. and ironically, wear like gritty iron siding when you try to take it off! so yeah, it has to be good glitter. and this, my friends, is a GOOD glitter.

rescue beauty lounge locavore was lent to me by my bestie bestest mickelle (who STILL hasn't started her blog, hrumph) and i wanted to treat this pretty lady right. so i didn't just wear it on a boring old tuesday during work or school or something mundane like that. i wore it on my 24th birthday celebration :D my friends took me out to dinner and we partied the night away a week before (because my actual birthday landed on father's day this year and peeps were mad busy). my girl courtney told everyone to wear gold, cuz i'm allll about the gold haha, and we went out to buca di bepo in salt lake city for dinner. they have a pope themed room to eat in, as it is an italian restaurant, but unfortunately we didn't get to eat in it because people make reservations for it like months in advance. boo! :( oh well, it was great time anyway haha. family style dining, cocktails, draft beer, and free tiramisu = amazing. i even got cutie bright gold ballet flats as a present! (and a bottle of arbor mist, haha!)

anydrunk, back to the matter at hand, literally HAHA. locavore blingtastic, being as it has gold, green, purple, blue and silver glitter particles in it! the gold and green take center stage, complimenting each other nicely. i topped three coats of this gritty gal with two coats of seche vite. who knew who's hair my hands would be running through that night?! don't want rough nails, now do we ;)

hope your saturday is shaping up well my loves ♥

wishlist june 09

my big 23rd birthday is just around the corner on the 20th and i'm not super excited about getting older and not having anything significantly change in my life haha. but oh well, blah blah wah wah. i guess everyone feels like that huh. my sister-in-law mary (christmas is her last name believe it or not) is doing the whole cake making thing and she said she's going to try to make me an Edward Cullen cake. HAHAHA! i told her he has to sparkle. we will see how this turns out. i may have to send it in to cake wrecks haha. anyway, here is my current wishlist. not necessarily for my birthday presents, but just stuff i've been lusting after. mostly after i started reading blogs and such :( haha.
