Indie Spammy- Spam!!

(**Press Sample**)

Good afternoon my darlings! 

  Look at me getting a post up!!! I hope you guys have missed me as I have missed you. A few days ago I asked you guys on Facebook if you were interested in seeing some indie spam and the answer was a big 'ol Yes. SO spam you I shall.

Lac Attack Hogwarts over OCC Power Plant 

  Hogwarts is an awesome mix of small Blue, Silver, Orange and Green glitters suspended in a clear base. I love the unique blend of colors and the pretty, sparkling effect it creates when layered.

Colores de Carol Hero in Disguise 

 Hero in Disguise is a muted Grey jelly with very subtle Blue-Violet shimmer accented by Marigold and Coral hex particles as well as Black stars. This is a really cute polish, and I loved wearing it, But it was not the easiest to work with, and I had to do quite a lot of fishing to get the glitter pieces on the nail. I used Three coats for my mani.  

R. Hobby Cosmetics Holo Berry over SindiePOP White Gold 

  Holo-Berry is a blend of small Raspberry and Black glitter suspended in a clear base.

Twee & Honey Glittertits over Picture Polish Kryptonite

  Glittertits (LOLOLOLOL) is a mix of chunky Silver holo hexes and smaller Silver holo particles suspended in a clear base. This is a fantastic topper for just about any shade.

KBShimmer Where my Peeps At?

 Where my Peeps At? is an adorable, soft Yellow jelly with small Pink, yellow and green glitter accented by Circle glitters in Gold, Green, red and Pink. This polish is just TOO CUTE!!! I am really liking the Circle glitters, they add something new and unexpected.

  I am still working on getting better on my end. I have not been extremely well, but I am staying as positive as possible. I have many beauties to play with and I am really wanting to feel better so I can dive back into my stash. Truth is I can no longer downplay how unwell I've been feeling. I had been working really hard at "mind over matter" but lately my body is winning. On a positive note, I am keeping track of my ideas in a notebook and when I feel well again there will be SO much awesome happening!!!

 Do you adore any of these?

Updated OCC Power Plant Mani- Matte Angled French Tips

(**Some of the products featured in this post were provided for  review consideration**)

Good Morning!!

  This will be a quickie post. I feel like all I do these days is bitch about not feeling well, and I am really sorry about that. I have this "thing" where I feel like my body cannot keep up with my brain. There is SO much I want to/need to get done. I have so many ideas floating around in my brain, but I rarely have the energy to get up and DO IT. I hate it :(. I really try so hard not to dwell on my illness, but it has been wearing me down lately. I've never had these many bad weeks in a row. I know this is not permanent and I hope to be well someday soon. I will be heading to the Mayo Clinic in May so, Fingers crossed I'll come out with some more definite answers.  

 So this cool and simple look started with a base of OCC Power Plant. After a day of wearing Power Plant by itself I decided to layer Lac Attack's Hogwarts over it for some bling. I wore that for another day or so and I had some minimal tip wear going on, but was not ready to part with my mani yet... SO, I taped off some angled french tips and painted the exposed parts with Cult Nails Nevermore. To finalize my whole look and give it some edge, I added a coat of Twee & Honey This is mateness- matte top coat. 

 I'm hoping to be a little on track this week. I do have quite a lot of pictures ready to go, they are mainly makeup though. I know many of you are here for le nails, but LTHP LOOOOVES makeup too ♥. So, there might be a lot of makeup posts coming your way these coming days. Mainly because I don't have much "nail" material ready to go :(. But as I said above, I have SO many ideas, so many new things I want to try and tutorials I want to film. I just need my body to get with the program and stop rebelling against me.

XO

Lac Attack Magical Musings Collection Swatches- Part Two

(**Lac Attack products provided for review consideration.**)

Good morning and happy Thursday! 

  Today I have some more swathes of colors from the Magical Musings collection by Lac Attack. You can see Part One [Here]. Sorry, I am not feeling very chatty today:(. That said, these colors are beautiful!! I can't get enough of this collection or the inspirations behind it!

To see swatches and find out more just continue reading! 

Lac Attack Durmstrang 

 This shade is a beautiful, sheer-ish Blue metallic-shimmer. Durmstrang also has the most beautiful, subtle hints of Gold shimmer that give the icy Blue base amazing dimension. There are also fun Black shards, that are fairly easy to work with.This shade is a bit sheer, but I managed to get away with Three easy coats for full opacity. This shade can also be layered.   

Lack Attack Amortentia 

 Amortentia is a rose Pink shimmering base with strong Violet duochrome. Packed in the base are lovely Lavender hex glitters as well as tons of small prismatic sparkle. This shade is also slightly sheer, but buildable. I used Three coats of Amortentia for my swatch. This shade can also be layered.  

Lac Attack Dementor's Kiss over Aphrodite Lacquers Make a Wish 

Dementor's Kiss is an awesome blend of small Black and Red hexes densely packed into a clear base. This polish is best layered. This combination in particular is quite AWESOME, if I do say so myself ;).

Lack Attack Beauxbatons Academy over Cirque Cape Liz  

Beauxbatons Academy is a light, milky Blue base accented with Blue, White and Gold particles. I LOVE the delicate blend of smaller shapes here. The little White squares are too adorable. IDK why I'm rambling about white squares... I just like 'em haha. This one I decided to layer over a color that was similar to the milky base. I only needed  one coat of Beauxbatons Academy over Cape Liz to achieve this look. 

 I'm still LOVING this collection. I think Lac Attack did a wondeful job on these colors (with halp from the lovely Glitta Gloves). These are still available(sold out right now but being restocked still) from several etailers and my understanding is that Lac Attack plans to keep these around for a good while. 

XOXO

Lac Attack Magical Musings Collection: Part One

Good Morning! 

  Today I have some swatches of some of the shades Lac Attack and Glitta Gloves teamed up to create. These are shades from the Magical Musings Collection by Lac Attack. This collection was released during the Holidays but the colors are amazing and definitely magical! 

 If you follow me on Instagram you may have seen my ultra nub post. My nails are now shorter than they were in the Floam post from a few days ago :(. I don't mind nubs but they are WAY too short to photograph and need a few days so in the mean time I will share swatches I've stashed away. 

Lac Attack Holidays in Hogsmeade over Aphrodite Lacquers Icing on the Cake over Sation Holiday Golightly

Got all that? lolol So the base shade is Holiday Golightly by Sation. I then did a layer of Aphrodite Lacquers in Icing on the Cake. I then followed that by a coat of Holidays in Hogsmeade. These were the nails I wore on X-mas Day. Holidays in Hogsmeade is an awesome mix of matte glitter particles in Green, White and Red suspended in a clear base.

Lac Attack Holidays in Hogsmeade over A England Holy Grail 

 I really fell on love with Holidays in Hogsmeade and I was finding excuses to wear it as often as possible during the Holidays. It looked AWESOME over A England Holy Grail 2.0. 

Lac Attack Weasley's Wizard Wheezies over Bettina Peaches 'n' Creme

 Weasley's Wizard Wheezies is a vibrant blend of Orange and Marigold Yellow Hexes and Bars in a clear base. The girls did an awesome job with this polish and the inspiration behind it. I will be showing a re-swatch of this soon. I like this layering and it looked great in person but I want to do a combo where you can get a better idea of all the textures and shades in WWW. It is such a FUN glitter topper.

Lac Attack Death Day Party over LVX Prussian

 Death Day Party is a super interesting mix of very fine glassflecks that shift from dark Chocolate to Pink to Copper and Orange- Violet. It is pretty complex and different. I had a hard time figuring out what to layer this over because I had never seen a polish like this one. The second I tried it over Prussian I fell in love.

Lac Attack Felix Felicis over Bettina Gabrielle

  This is a "bonus" swatch haha. This beauty was one of my Top Ten Handmade polishes of 2012.

 I will see you guys tomorrow with more stashy swatches. The second my nails are at an acceptable length I will pick back up with swatching all the new collections and busting out some nail art!! 

 Most of these are currently sold out on the Lac Attack Site but you can follow her on Facebook and Twitter to keep up with shop re-stocks! I will be sharing the rest of the collection soon!

See you guys soon!

Etsy Mania!! Lac Attack Jewel of the Nile

Good afternoon and happy hump day!

  Today I have another of my Etsy buys. The shop being featured today is Lac Attack. When I saw this awesome polish I just knew I had to have it. This pretty also killed my lemming for I'm Feeling Nail-Venturous Pinkerbell. I don't know how close they really are but looking at swatches, they are pretty similar. I so cannot get over these matte glitter blends. I just love how they look!

 No, this is not a dupe or even close to Floam. Now that- that is out of the way :D... Jewel of the Nile is a lovely mix of Blue and Green matte glitters with larger "see through" Pink bits thrown in for contrast. How adorable is this polish?! For this manicure I layered Two coats of JOTN over a franken that was sent to me by the lovely Nicole from Polish for Thought. She sent me Four of her creations and left the task of naming them up to me. I named this pretty pink Princess Bubblegum (Any Adventure Time Fans in the house?) I will be featuring her pretties soon! So I seriously love this combo and I even made a ring out of it :D!

 I seriously love the little Pink bits in this. They look like they are floating on my nails. Here is a pretty macro :D!

The cuteness... I haz it! Thanks for stopping by loves!
