Swatch: Kleancolor Neon Sapphire

Kleancolor has a great selection of nail polish and I always find myself grabbing one of these colors lately to do my manicure. They have cremes, jellies, glitter, holo, hex, you name it!

Kleancolor Neon Sapphire
The polish I swatch today has quickly become a favorite of mine, especially for winter. Kleancolor Neon Sapphire is a very dark blue almost jellies sort of creme. It applies nicely and is opaque at two coats. I always like to add that second coat just to be sure there is no visible nail line showing.

The reason I gravitate towards this color is because it looks really good against my olive skin tone. I like wearing it by itself or sprucing it up with nail art. I also like using it as a base coat for layering. What a versatile polish!

Swatch: AEngland Galahad

Another AEngland polish to show today. It is one of my favorites so far. It is a minty teal type shade, which I happen to really like.

AEngland Galahad
You can purchase this polish on beautometry.com along with the rest of the AEngland line.

It applied very smoothly and was opaque yet not too thick to make it hard to work with. This polish is part of the Mythicals Collection offered by AEngland. This particular polish is named for Sir Galahad, which is one of the mythical Knights of the Round Table.

I am very happy to be back doing my blog again and able to devote more time to the business. I am thinking of hosting a giveaway as soon as I reach 100 followers, so feel free to follow the blog and see what types of polish and nail art I may come up with next. If you have any suggestions or questions, I welcome them! Just send me an email or post in the comments sections.

Have a great day!

Swatch: Glitter Gal Not Another Red NEW 10mL Holographic Nail Polish

Today I have a swatch of one of the brand new Glitter Gal holographic nail polishes. The smaller bottle size is now 10mL instead of the previous 9mL. This means the 9mL bottles are discontinued, so they will be offered on beautometry.com until they are gone.

Glitter Gal Not Another Red Nail Polish
 This color is a great strawberry red linear holographic. I really like the way the red base is in this, that strawberry color is great for Valentine's manicure, summer and even Christmas! The photo above is two coats over natural nails. Love the coverage of this and wear-ability as well.

Beautometry.com
It is true to its name, it may be another red holographic nail polish, but it's not the same as any other that I have. It has a great bright feeling and that sets it apart from the other red holographic polish offered by Glitter Gal. You can find the new 10mL bottles on beautometry.com along with the whole Glitter Gal range.

Don't forget about the Saint Valentine's Day Nail Art Contest! One lucky winner will receive one of these new 10mL Glitter Gal holographic polishes of their choice.


And here's a final closer shot of this beautiful polish:

Review: Tarte Lights, Camera, Lashes Mascara

The next of the three mascaras that I have been trying out the past several months or so is made by Tarte. Tarte Lights, Camera, Lashes mascara has been wonderful to use!

Tarte Lights, Camera, Lashes Mascara
First, let me discuss product packaging. I usually don't care about that; but in this case I actually don't like the weird type of package for this mascara. It is in a tube that is encased in some sort of "leather' feeling material. Don't get me wrong, I really like the snakeskin purple finish look, but I find it a waste that it is basically material around the actual tube. Luckily, it doesn't mess with application of the product and it is probably the only thing I actually dislike about this mascara.





In the photo above, you can really see the difference between my lashes with and without the mascara. The eye on the left has the Tarte mascara on it and the one on the right does not. This photo really shows such a dramatic difference this mascara makes!

I absolutely love this mascara. It is very creamy, easy to apply, lasts all day. Basically, everything that I would want in a mascara. It makes my eyes really standout and makes those eyelashes look so full and gorgeous. These are my natural lashes and this mascara really makes them look wonderful.

Overall, I will definitely be using this mascara again and will recommend it to anyone that is looking to enhance their natural lashes and not wear false lashes to do it. The tube of mascara lasted me about 4 months exactly and just ran out. Luckily, I already have a new tube!

Swatch: Glitter Gal 10 to Midnight 3D Holographic Nail Polish

Today, I have one of the beautiful and popular Glitter Gal holographic polishes to show you.

10 to Midnight is a great charcoal color and looks nice both indoors and out, especially in the sun!

Glitter Gal 10 to Midnight 3D Holographic Nail Polish
This polish goes on great, like all the other Glitter Gal shades. It lasts rather long as well, and doesn't show signs of tipwear as soon as many of the other holographic polishes do. I just love seeing those rainbows!

You can buy this and other Glitter Gal polishes on Beautometry. Don't forget about the Saint Valentine's Day nail art contest as well.
