red - Lucy's Stash

Hello lovelies,

I haven't done a gradient for a while so here's one :) I have used the new Zoya Stunning polishes Yana, Thandie and Darcy and it kinda came out as a 'Sunset' gradient. I wanted to make it special so I've added Ninja Polish Sticks 'n' Stones. It would have ended there but then I thought that the nails really lack something special, an accent nail. So I've removed the nail polish from ring finger, done a two tone gradient with Yana and Thandie and added Hex Jewelry charm.

Well, ehm... the charm says "Fuck you!" and I really wanted to use it! :D A while ago I've been lucky and I've won Hex Jewelry's Twitter competition for a set of these swear word nail charms. They fit the nail curve great, I'm co happy they are not flat!

Hello lovelies,

today I want to show you another polish from Tip Top, South African brand. I've previously reviewed Oh La La shade and two duo polish sets.

"Tip Top is renowned for its exceptionally safe products – all nail enamels are vegan, Formaldehyde, Toluene, DBP (Dibuthyl Phthalate) and Camphor FREE – and made in South Africa with the best raw materials. Naturally, our made in South Africa products are not tested on animals."

Boston Lights - dark burgundy shimmer leaning to brown. The colour looked very brown to me in the bottle but once I've applied it on the nails it showed gorgeous burgundy colour. It applied like butter, very easily and smoothly and the pigmentation was truly excellent. One coat was almost enough for full coverage. I've applied two regular coats. I've experienced light streaks.

Overall, it's a really pretty polish with excellent formula I only wish the bottles were slightly larger. Each bottle holds 10ml. Right now Tip Top brand is sold in South Africa only but they are looking at the possibility to go international.
