Happy Birthday to the twins

A little personal post today and it will be short as well. Today six years ago my world changed up-side down when I gave birth to my lovely twin girls. And our lives have never been the same.

Their youngest cousin is born three days before them so we have made it a tradition to celebrate all three at the same day, it makes birthday celebrations a little less stressful and hectic. We held their party yesterday and today is more relaxed just the four of us. Right now they are watching Disney's Cinderella for the gazillionth time :D

What I wanted to share as well is the mani I made for their brithday celebration.
Since I had so much to do I decided on a fairly simple one and then make it a bit more festive with some glitter on top.

I don't do red often but I do have a couple for situations like this. Perceval from a-england has become my go-to red, it is stunningly beautiful!!! A-england polishes are always a good choice I still have to come across a dud formula on these, and I have quite the collection. They glide on like butter and are opaque in one coat, this one is no exception.

I've had Lynnderella One Nutty Fruitcake for almost two years and only swatched it on a nail wheel so I thought this was a good opportunity to get this out of the Helmer and show it off. This is one coat so there is good pay-off on this. I got this kind of coverage with very little effort, though I had to dabble a little.

I can see how bad my light is at my nail polish area because I TOTALLY missed the middle finger was that unevenly painted - many apologies :D

Wednesday Polish Picture Spam - on a Thursday

So I've gone and got myself a terrible flu which on a positive note means I'm blogging like crazy :D

For this week's picture spam are two indie Halloween polishes:

Dollish Polish I'm the Boogieman

From the Halloween 2012 collection

Lacquistry Heeere's Johnny

These are gorgeous polishes - unfortunately they are both limited editions, so getting them will be hard. But you can go browse their shops for other amazing polish creations. You'll find Lacquistry on Etsy filled with Holiday polishes and Dollish polish on Bigcartel, the site is in maintenance mode right now but it will be back in the new year. A select choice of Dollish can also be found at Overallbeauty.

Girly Bits Boo-berry

In one of the nail polish groups I'm in we have a recurring secret bunny swap. It started at Easter which is why it is bunny themed so we've had secret Easter Bunny Swaps, Beach Bunny Swaps and this Halloween a Scary Bunny Swap. I received an amazing package from Marnie from nubbins4nails which consisted of the following gorgeous polishes:

I have yet to try the two minis but the rest have been tried, tested and are loved heavily by me.

The first I wore was Girly Bits Boo-berry, a gorgeous blurple jellylike glitter bomb. It is part of the Halloween Collection 2012 which unfortunately is limited edition. Like other of Pam's creations it is easy to work with - application is easy, formula great and dry time is fast.

There are so many different glitters in here, blue hexes, blue holo hexes, squares and bars. Pink and purple hexes, squares, black squares, micro glitter...I have stopped counting. But it makes for a stunning looking polish:

Just look at the gorgeousness of Boo-berry:

I can highly recommend getting some Girly Bits(pun intended) polishes, so far I haven't been disappointed. Always up to par with the major brands these beauties are more interesting than what you can normally get your hands on when buying polish and if you are not into glitter polish there are gorgeous shimmers in her collections as well.

Girly Bits can be purchased through the Bigcartel shop (which is under reconstruction but will return to normal in the new year), at Overall Beauty or llarowe.
