OPI's Honey Ryder and Flower Stamping!

Hey all! Today I have swatches of OPI Honey Ryder and some stamping nail art on top to show you! What you see here is two easy coats of Honey Ryder! The only complaint I have about this polish is that it seems to wear off the tips much quicker than other polishes (but I think all other textured polishes I've tried do too).

Onto the pictures!

The stamping plate I used for this was Bundle Monster's BM-224 and the polish I used to stamp with was Essie Bobbing for Baubles!





Thanks for stopping by everyone! I love to see your comments, so feel totally free to comment about anything you like! I'll be posting another Black Sheep Lacquer swatch post including the swatches I Instagrammed and tweeted yesterday, just as soon as they've been named!

Zoya Destiny Swatches and Review! :)

Today I have one of the lovely Summer Pixie Dust polishes by Zoya to show you lovelies! This beauty is called Destiny, a coral/orange textured matte polish with a whole bunch of gold and coral shimmer! This is just the juiciest and coolest orange polish I've ever seen, as many bloggers have said, it looks like candy!

Formula-wise this polish was a dream! What you see here is two easy coats of non-streaky, quick drying and non-balding goodness! What you also see here is no cleanup, as I didn't bring any nail polish or nail supplies other than cuticle butter and hand lotion on this trip! The only thing that worried me when I applied this polish was the fact that some of the textured bits were on the tips or free edges of my nails (I thought they'd make my nails get caught on things). Those wore off quite quickly which actually caused slight tip wear which was a little disappointing. I think only a practiced lacquerista would notice the tiny amount of tip wear and honestly, I love this polish so much that I don't care! :)

Sorry about the quality of these pictures, I thought not as nice pictures were better than a blogging hiatus!

Onto the pictures!

The background for most of these pictures is one of the two lovely dresses I bought while I was away!

OPI's Get Your Number (Liquid Sand) Swatch :D

I decided to splurge yesterday and buy one of the Mariah Carey Liquid Sand polishes :). I'm very glad I did and I hope to get more soon! This is just two slightly thick coats, and pre-cleanup!












Here's an out of focus picture to show the holographic glitter a little better!
