Photo time!
Magical Moments
**Pink/purple toned holographic glitter polish**
***Photos shown with three thin coats. Three coats for full opacity but it wasn't thick by any means. The formula is thin enough to build to opacity. No issues with formula or application. Shown with HK Girl Top Coat***
Direct sun photo
Love and Peace
**Bright yellow holographic polish with a green lean**
***Shown with two coats and HK Girl Top Coat. No issues with formula or application. You will see in the indoor (office) lighting where the green REALLY comes through. It's yellow for the most part but can have a green shift in it depending on the lighting.***

That's all folks!

Holo Grail Box January 2015 - Make a Wish - Part 1
Monday, April 20, 2015
Hey hey hey!
I'm back from my week long hiatus.
Okay so it was a full week since I did post on Monday to tell you I would be MIA for the week.
I've been so busy with my day to day life that it can get tricky getting swatches done!
This post is part 1 of 2 posts that will feature the polishes from the January 2015 Holo Grail Box from Dazzled. This box got a bit lost in the mail so it just found it's way to be a week or so ago!
But I didn't want to not share the polishes just because it's no where near January anymore.
Since these can all still be found second hand. I've seen them all being destashed! So if you see something you like...keep an eye out for them!
There isn't currently a pre-order happening for the Holo Grail Box but when there is it can be found here.
So today I have the contributions from Aly's Dream Polish and NailNation 3000 to show you!
Health Potion
**Stunning red holo polish - a pink/red - keeping it from leaning orange aka a stunning bright red**
***Two beautiful coats are shown in the photos topped with HK Girl Top Coat - no issues with formula or application - no staining***
Indoor office light photo -
sadly no sun photo for this one
My Wish 4 You
**Light pink holographic polish with a gold shift**
***This polish and the Aly's are head to head for being my favorite of the box. The gold shift in this is so so beautiful. It really gives the pink something extra special. It's subtle enough for the office but special enough for outside the office. No issues with application or formula. Shown in the photos with two coats topped with HK Girl Top Coat***
Shown on the left indoors in office light and on the right is an indirect sun photo
Tomorrow I will be sharing the other two polishes from the box. See photo below for a little sneak peek!

Whoops...Cue Bad Time Management Music
Monday, April 13, 2015
Well my friends. I am guilty of bad time management this past week.
What does that mean exactly?
Well time got away from me and my weekend schedule included visiting with family and running seemingly endless errands. All of my plans to work on posts for this week escaped me.
So I have an unscheduled break for this week!
I'll be back with pretty photos and polishes and of course the tried and true Mid-Week Coffee Break will be back next week!
Until then...cats.
That Gal...signing off...until next week!

Fair Maiden Polish Review and Swatches - Evening Primrose
Thursday, April 9, 2015
Hey guys!
Today I have one of the polishes from the Garden Party Collection by Fair Maiden Polish.
Yellow isn't a favorite color of a lot of people in regards to nail polish but I really love it!
The blue flash in this polish, on me, just didn't come through all that well. Up close you can see it more but not so much from further away. Either way it's a really lovely spring polish.
This is out of stock right now but I know Fair Maiden will be re-launching this collection, plus one new addition to the collection and all the core polishes, on April 18th at 12 pm CST!
**Three thin coats. Thinner formula but felt a little thick by the third coat. Shown with HK Girl Top Coat**
Did you manage to get any of these when they released?
Where to find Fair Maiden Polish -
Have a great weekend!
