Sugar, Spice, and Everything Nice, Oh and Dollish Polish Powerpuff Girls nail colors

Before we Begin......

Talk about a blast from the past. I was a definite hardcore fan of the Powerpuff girls back in the day. Ahh, those were the good old days. I been have nostalgic feelings towards this show since Dollish Polish came out with a nail polish trio that is inspired by the PowerPuff Girls. 

Don't know what Dollish Polish is? Well here is a blerp from their website

"Dollface22772, 


is most commonly known as a Nail Art Guru on YouTube which she started in 2009. Dolly, as she is affectionately known to by both fans and friends alike, has shared over 250 nail art tutorials on her channel with a combined total of over 4 million views and over 33,000 subscribers on her YouTube channel alone.

Dolly's passion for both nail art & nail polish has been a driving force in her life sine she was a young girl. With a longstanding career in Art, Teaching and Retail Management, Dolly has applied her skills to form her own line of hand-mixed lacquers, and thus Dollish Polish was born in 2010.

Dollish Polish nail lacquers are all created and made by Dolly herself and consist of a wide range of colors, including shimmers, creams, holographic, and glitter shades. All inspired by and named after some of Dolly's most beloved movies, music, books, video games and more." -From http://dollishpolish.bigcartel.com/aboutmore. "

This website is a 80s/90s fangirl and nerds/geeks dream polishes. So without further ado... Here are the PowerPuff Girls!

Blossom
Blossom, commander and the Leader, (Yes i did just quote the Powerpuff girl ending theme song)

-Blossom can be described as a milky pink and multi-tonal micro-shimmer. This is a very pretty color. I see this being awesome for those who get a really deep tan.



Swatch Time: this was very difficult to take a pic of. It is definitely more pink then it appears on the pic.
 Bubbles

Bubbles, she is the joy and the laughter,

-Bubbles can be described as a light pastel blue with the multi-tonal micoshimmer like Blossom has. 



Swatch Time:


Buttercup

Buttercup, she's the toughest fighter,

-Buttercup is a light mossy green and the multi-tonal shimmer really stands out in this one. 



Swatch Time:


My final word on this polish trio is that... its awesome. I feel that is really eptimoizes what the powerpuff girls are about "sugar, spice, and everything nice!" I would recommend these for purchase. You can buy them in a trio set or individually. They can be purchased for $11.00 at Dollish Polish.

and of course..

Do something Beautiful this Sunday (5/19/13) in CT






If you are Newton, CT this Sunday, Ricci's Salon and Spa is holding a Salon-a-thon event. When you donate $10.00 to a sandy hook charity you will receive a special OPI green nail polish in honor of those who died in the Sandy Hook Tragedy. Follow the Sandy Hook Green link below for more information.


Sandy Hook Green

Its all about the BB, Dior Nude BB Cream that is

On my journey of the use of BB cream, I have discovered a treasure and that treasure is DiorSkin Nude BB cream. This I feel is the perfect BB cream. It has perfect coverage and blends perfectly to create a even, protected skin tone. This particular BB cream has SPF 10 included too. 

It just looks pretty too. 

It has a push pump tube that dispenses the perfect amount of BB cream. I use two pumps because I like to apply on the neck area as well. It has Five different skin tones for one to choose from. My particular one is Fair 002. 


Un-blended and blended

They are available for purchase on $44.00. I think this is a good buy for anyone who is interested in purchasing a BB Cream. You can buy them at high end retailers and www.sephora.com. 


Enjoy SciFi Lullabies by OCC Cosmetics


I love science fiction. Give me a sci-fi film any day and you make me a very happy girl. When I heard OCC was making a sci-fi inspired lip tar collection, I was elated. So here we have a flash review of OCC SciFi Lullabies collection.

The colors are inspired by sci-fi films, most notably Blade Runner and Alien. 

Swatch Time:

From Top to Bottom:

1. Prius: a creamy silver color. I feel that this color would be best used in an lip ombre with other one of the colors of this collection. 

2. Clockwork: This is a terra-cotta color. This is a very unique color since you don't see this color very often in lip colors. 

3. Zhora: a silvered rose gold color. 

4. Lovecraft: A pink lilac color. 

5. Annika: a deep peach color. 

6. Batty: A black lip tar with silver shimmer. I LOVE LOVE LOVE IT. This is probably the winner of the collection cause of it's color pay off and representation of the overall concept of scifi. It was the first one I wore.


I feel that all of these colors are gorgeous and someone will definitely fall in love with one of these colors. The winners for me are Batty, Lovecraft, and Prius. These are currently for sale for $18.00 and available for purchase at Sephora and Obsessive Compulsive Cosmetics.

Here is a video introduction of the SciFi Lullabies collection presented by Nylon:
