Jamie from Glitter Lambs, maker of amazing indie glitter toppers, has done it again! I think she must just look around in her day-to-day life and envision every pretty thing as a potential glitter polish 🙂 Today I’ll be sharing my swatches from the upcoming collection, Fashion makeover. These will be released and ready for purchase on March 14th. Here is the lineup:
Release on March 14th, the 2015 Glitter Lambs Fashion Makeover Collection! From left: Baby Blue Eyeliner, Lilac Mascara, Lime Green Eyeshadow, Candy Lip Balm and Golden Honey Foundation. Makeup items not included. 😉
Let’s start off with a brilliant green glitter called Lime Green Eyeshadow.
Lime Green Eyeshadow is described as, a clear base filled with neon green hex, iridescent glitters and pastel glitters.
Here is Lilac Mascara. What? You don’t have any? 😉 It’s gorgeous on nails!
Lilac Mascara is described as, a clear base filled with lavender stars, iridescent glitters and pastel glitters.
Here is Baby Blue Eyeliner. Factoid: this makes a great shade for your inner lash line to brighten your eyes!
Baby Blue Eyeliner is described as, a clear base filled with blue mini stars, iridescent glitters and pastel glitters.
Candy Lip Balm is a delicate glitter topper and will look great over any base coat of polish.
Candy Lip Balm is described as, a clear base filled with mini pink stars, iridescent glitters and pastel glitters.
And finally to complete the collection is Golden Honey Foundation.
Golden Honey Foundation is described as, a clear base filled with yellow mini stars, iridescent glitters and pastel glitters.
Remember, these are set for release on March 14th! Jamie explains, “This collection will be the same formula that is in their “It’s Snowing Cotton Candy” glitter topper”. The iridescent glitters that we used in these polishes create a thicker gel like formula. These toppers ARE TOTALLY GORGEOUS!” I have to agree. I know I’m not supposed to have favorites (not out loud) LOL but I LOVE the Lime Green Eyeshadow. What’s your fave?! Remember, Jamie also sells cool nail charms to complete your Fashion Makeover.

I was sent the “Weekly Polishes” of the CND® Summer 2015 Garden Muse Collection for review from RPR and these gorgeous shades do not disappoint. The set of six (also available in 14-day wear Shellac) consist of three cremes, two shimmers, and a shimmery metallic glitter mix. Let’s take a look!
The cremes in this collection from L to R: Wisteria Haze, Crushed Rose and Reflecting Pool.The rest of the collection from L to R: Beckoning Begonia, Lost Labyrinth and Butterfly Queen.
I’ll start with the three perfect cremes! Each of these formulas went on smooth and opaque, 1-2 buttery coats, depending on your technique. They dry fast and glossy and the brush is perfect.
Wisteria Haze:
Wisteria Haze (I used one coat) is a medium Wisteria/lilac creme. Gorgeous!Crushed Rose is a cool rosey medium pink creme. I didn’t want to take this one off!Reflecting Pool is a cerulean blue, aqua, Caribbean blue creme. It’s just perfect!
On to the shimmers/glitter!
Beckoning Begonia is a shimmery pale lavender. It’s on the slightly thick side although the first coat went on streaky. I applied a second coat to smooth out the polish and it dried slightly slower than the fast drying cremes. This was the only one of the six that fought me with it’s weird formula. But the outcome is gorgeous!Lost Labyrinth is also a shimmer but not as thick as Beckoning Begonia so application was easier and quicker drying time. I did this in two coats. It’s a cool aqua/teal shade, perfect for those mermaidy nail looks!Butterfly Queen is a cool toned brilliant pink, almost hot, but very complex. Drying time was less than I expected with it’s mix of shimmer and glitter. Just the right mix of pink glitter so it’s not overly textured and overpowering. I used two coats.
Overall I really like this collection. The cremes are my favorite and I’m really impressed with the drying time. These Weekly polishes wear well (when I get the chance to leave them on more than a couple of days). Both versions, Weekly and Shellac are available for purchase now!
