Spamtastic Friday!

A very good morning to you! I am going to start off the weekend a bit early with some Friday spam. If you haven't yet entered my Elevation Polish giveaway, make sure to do so before midnight on Sunday. Have a great weekend!

Sally Hansen Pink Sprinkle
Like China Glaze Strawberry Fields but textured.


Sally Hansen Pink Sprinkle (with topcoat)


 Sally Hansen Royal Icing
I had high hopes for this but the pink shimmer isn't quite as strong as I wanted.


Sally Hansen Royal Icing (with topcoat)


Finger Paints Peacock Portrait
Layered over Ninja Polish Mystic Glacier


Finger Paints Van Gogh's Violet
Layered over....a purple creme? I can't remember.


Girly Bits Cu Blue
Love this one, the blue is deep and dark and the copper microglitter stands out more in real life. 


Girly Bits Hocus Pocus
Layered over Manglaze Butt Taco
I wanted to see a orange/coral holo but I think Hocus Pocus doesn't quite let the base color shine through. The holo effect is prominent though.

Cult Nails Living Water and Sally Hansen In a Flurry

I picked up Sally Hansen In a Flurry at a local Walgreens a few weeks ago and wondered how similar it was to Cult Nails Living Water, so I both to show today.

Living Water is a polish that is beautiful in the bottle and translates just as well to the nails. It has a dark teal blue jelly base with tiny blue and green glitter. This was two coats and applies well, though it will have a gritty finish so at least two coats of topcoat is needed. I rushed application, so there is a some dragging, I apologize for that.


In a Flurry has a dark teal base but it's more blackened, less blue toned than Living Water. It's packed with small glitter particles and though there is a purple shimmer, I wasn't able to capture it in the picture. I dislike the Sally Hansen mop paddle brush and very narrow Insta-Dri bottle opening but those are things that are tolerable when the polish is pretty enough. 


In the photo below, Living Water is on my index and ring fingers and In a Flurry is on my middle and pinky fingers. The bases are similar but the real difference lies in the glitter. In a Flurry is filled with more glitter in varied colors compared to Living Water. I used two coats for full coverage for both polishes. They are not close enough to be called dupes but they are close enough to each other that you may not need to own both.



Living Water is a limited edition polish but it's still available on Cult Nails web store. In a Flurry is a limited edition polish from the Sally Hansen Insta-Dri line and can be found at various drugstores.

Sally Hansen Nail Prisms Amber Ruby

Not a lot to say about this polish except that it is amazing. It's a multichrome that shifts from red, to orange, to gold. Sally Hansen Nail Prisms had some really great releases but this is by far my favorite one they have done. This is three coats by itself, I didn't want to layer it over another color and see how many coats it took to get to full opacity. It's not so easy to find now but if found on a blogsale or eBay, grab it!
