Deborah Lippmann Life’s a Beach duo makes a splash!

Right up my alley, or maybe I should say beach path. I love the beach, the sand, the glorious shades of water and the wild life on top and below. Today I get to share with you a perfect pair of polishes from Deborah Lippmann, Life’s a Beach. And that packaging! Can you just?! Call me cray, but I’m keeping these cuties inside the package when I’m not painting with them. Brilliant DL!

Brave the waves with The Tide Is High, an aquatic blue crème and
Break 4 Love, a bubblegum pink crème. I lean more toward Break 4 Love as a coral creme. $17/set.
2 bottles at 8mL each

I found both polishes apply great, on the thick side due to their high pigmentation. Both cremes are glossy as heck. For this mani I chose to do a “coral in the water” look. 😉

Break 4 Love is a soft coral pink creme (2-coater) very pigmented and glossy. The Tide is High is an aquatic blue creme. I was immediately inspired to beach up my look with some coral art over this sea-worthy blue. What a perfectly sundrenched pair!

I also received for review three nail treatments. I love that Hard Rock is ready to rock as a base and top coat. And it’s nail strengthening. Something we all need when spending so much time in the sun and water.

• Hard Rock base and top coat nail strengthening nail treatment. A rock solid choice to strengthen and protect, this protein-rich treatment encourages healthy nail growth. It’s especially beneficial for weak nails or post gel and artificial nail removal. Apply a thin layer over bare nails, or use as a base or top coat. For best results of nail strengthening, apply a thin layer the next day and every day until you change your nail polish.
.5 Fl. Oz. 15 mL
• Addicted to Speed top coat super quick-drying. You’re out the door—in a flash. This high-shine top coat dries fast so you can go about your business without a smear, smudge or scratch. Apply a thin layer over nail color. .5 Fl. Oz. 15 mL
• Turn Back Time anti-aging base coat. Just like skin, our nails age. This innovative treatment puts the process in reverse. Light diffusing micronized diamond core powder reduces the appearance of yellowing and staining to restore a youthful luster. Use as a base coat before color, or wear alone for a brilliant bare finish. .5 Fl. Oz. 15 mL All three are $20ea.

Addicted to Speed Quick Drying Top Coat is amazing! I mean rock hard in two minutes.

Turn Back Time, a super base coat and I’ll report back later if I see anti-aging results. I’m sure it is with all those healthy ingredients!

Conclusion: All products are amazing as expected. Love the Life’s a Beach shades and Addicted to Speed is FAST!

Virago Varnish celebrates 1st Anniversary with this tremendous trio!

Happy Anniversary to Virago Varnish! And they are celebrating 1 year by releasing, and available now, a trio of gorgeous holographic polishes. All retail for $11 ea. Along with these three beauties, I got in on the Facebook Group Custom Polish so keep reading!

Virago is celebrating their Anniversary with a stunning 3-piece (or buy individually) collection. From Left: Gala, Jubilee and Triumph. Holo beauty at it’s best!

First up is Gala from the Anniversary collection. This is my kind of blue!

Gala: In celebration of their first year in business, Virago is releasing this beautiful blue holographic polish.
Finish: Shine
Opacity: Opaque in 3 coats, I only needed 2!

Next is Jubilee. I have to admit, I love them all but I can’t get enough of this one.

Jubilee: In celebration of their first year in business, Virago is releasing this beautiful pink holographic polish.
Finish: Shine
Opacity: Opaque in 3 coats, I only need 2 of this perfect buttery formula. And wow it’s glossy!

And the last of the Anniversary set is Triumph! Wow, this one messed with my camera so much. Every photo looked different!

Triumph: this is a beautiful blue/green duo chrome holographic polish.
Finish: Shine
Opacity: Opaque in 3 coats, I only needed 2 and this formula was slightly thicker than it’s sisters.

I’m proud to be a part of the Virago Varnish Facebook Group Virago Squad! And being able to grab this Custom Adrienne made for us is super special! I’m not sure if this will become a part of the core line, so get it while you can. I HIGHLY recommend you become a part of the group if you aren’t already. This indie polish maker is one of THE best out there and the group is full of fine folks. DO NOT join just to get this polish, it’s just not kosher. In fact, it would be tacky. Just sayin’! They are $11 ea.

The Virago Group custom polish is a stunning glossy holo purple. Fabulous formula just like the Anniversary set!

I am super pleased with every one of these. No surprise there. I haven’t tried a polish from this fine indie maker that I didn’t love. Fabulous job Adrienne!
