OPI Damone Roberts 1968 Swatch & Review

I have wanted this nail polish for a loooong time. It was one of my biggest lemmings up until recently. Limited edition OPI Damone Roberts 1968 had even been repromoted a few times but I had missed every launch. I heard during a session of #NailGlossip that it was coming back once again, but before it was released, a good friend and fellow nail polish blogger offered to send me one of her extra bottles of it. Of course I said yes! Thanks again, girl!

Damone Roberts 1968 is a collaboration shade OPI created with salon owner and entrepreneur Damone Roberts back in 2009. According to his website, the color was matched to his salon walls described as "a different green with undertones of a soft grey, and a warm brown that works well on every skin tone". The formula is overall pretty good, it was a bit streaky on some nails. This is two coats of mint pistachio heaven! I am seriously in love.

It is on the pricey side, being $20 instead of OPI's usual $9.50, but it's worth it in my opinion. I might even buy a back up bottle because I love it so much! You can purchase this directly on the Damone Roberts website, but hurry because supplies might not last much longer, it has sold out three times before. I hope you enjoyed this and we'll see ya next time!

My Guest Post on Polish Chest

Hi there and hello :) Today I wanted to alert you to a friend's blog that I'm guest posting on, Polish Chest by Danny. She is located in Germany and is not posting a lot these days due to her exams, so she asked me to put up something. I loooove her nails, they're seriously flawless, so I feel very privileged to be posting on her blog. I reviewed a polish from LCN called Some Like It Hot.


This black and white photo is just a teaser, see the full color pictures HERE! Please stop by her blog and subscribe because she's awesome! See ya next time :)

Color Club Summer 2014 Poptastic Collection Swatches & Review

Greetings my fine friends! I'm still hanging on to the edge of summer with this collection from Color Club, it's their Summer 2014 Poptastic colors. Six neon lacquers that will make you want to grab your sunnies and hit the beach!

First in the collection is Kapow!, the quintessential neon pink with a slight purple shimmer. I adore pinks and this is just right up my alley. Great formula, thin but not too thin and easy to manipulate. This is two coats.

Next we have Bell Bottom Babe which looked out of place in this collection to me at first, but I think it ends up fitting in pretty nicely with that shimmahhh. It's a medium purpley blue with purple shimmer. Thin formula, I needed three coats here.

My favorite of the collection is Foxy Mama, although the name is pretty corny haha. This retina-searing neon orange is so perfect, with awesome golden orange shimmer it just screams LOOK AT ME! Thick-ish formula, two coats.

This is Right On, a pretty neon purple with a blueish purpley shimmer shift. Really lovely, I adore this and I don't usually love purples. Thinner formula, but opaque in two coats.

Not So Mellow Yellow is right, it's anything but mellow! Another blinding neon, this one is a classic highlighter yellow with some added shimmer. Kinda thick but not unworkable.

And last is Peace, Love & Polish, a slightly coraly light/medium pink neon with awesome warm gold shimmer. Instant love! Also on the thick side, this is two coats.

I love that a white base coat is not needed for these neons! The three thicker ones take a light touch for application but the thinner ones are pretty easy to apply. These can be found on Color Club's website for $8.50 each. What do you think of these hawt neons?
