Chaos & Crocodiles Captain of Tonight's Sky and Cupcake Ninja

Hey guys! I have a couple of Chaos & Crocodiles polishes from her last pre-order this afternoon. It looks like there will be another restock soon, so make sure to followe Chaos & Crocs on her Facebook page for updates and sneak peaks.

 

Chaos & Crocodiles Captain of Tonight's Sky

Layered over Dior Porcelaine

Clear based topper with a varity of purple, blue and silver glitter including little silver stars and iridescent shimmer

Pretty in blue and purple! And for some reason the name brings to mind the movie The Rocketeer.

Chaos & Crocodiles Cupcake Ninja

Two coats

Hot pink creme with silver and slight pink shimmer

Such an intense color! Though I don't like pink polish all that much, a color like this will change my mind. It's bright but just shy of being a neon, so it's more wearable. I absolutely love Cupcake Ninja!

Chaos & Crocodiles can be purchased in her Big Cartel shop, as well as through Mei Mei's Signatures and Norway Nails. Updates can be found on her Facebook page, Blog, Instagram, and Twitter.

 



Tom Ford Bitter Bitch and Ginger Fire

Good morning! I have a couple of Tom Ford polishes on the blog today. I have been wanting to try Tom Ford nail polish for a while but the price tag has made me hesitate in purchasing. I was lucky enough to be gifted the two I have and am very impressed by the brand. The bottle packaging is luxurious, exactly what I would expect from a high end brand. And the formula is so so good. They aren't really adventurous in color selection, a lot of red, pinks, neutrals, but I liked the application. I would recommend Tom Ford polish to anyone who wanted a high end alternative to Chanel, Dior, or YSL. As for myself, I will definitely keep the brand on my radar but just be selective on the color choice. 

Tom Ford Bitter Bitch

Two coats

This is a hard color to pin down, I would maybe call it prune colored. It's a very red toned brown creme. 

A little streaky on the first coat but the second coat fixes that. I may have needed to do a third coat for the photo but two will get you full coverage. 

Tom Ford Ginger Fire

Two coats

Tangerine orange with gold shimmer. 

Absolutely stunning color. It's very vibrant and exactly the type of polish I am drawn toward. 

Tom Ford nail polish (along with other Tom Ford cosmetics) can be purchased through Nordstrom, Saks, and Neiman Marcus.

Pahlish EXTERMINAAAATE! Febuary Duo

Hey everyone! Continuing on the Doctor Who theme, today I have Pahlish's newest monthly duo, the EXTERMINAAAATE! Febuary Duo, available only for this month. First let's get into the Dalek mode....

Pahlish The Primary Order

Pale gray with charcoal and bronze flakes
Lovely and easy to apply creme. And them flakes, they be sooooo nice against that creamy base.

Pahlish The Crucible

Layered over The Primary Order

Clear based topper with gunmetal, gold, and copper glitter, and bronze shimmer.

Dalek inspired but the Daleks wished they could look this good. I love the duos that Pahlish puts out each month, and each month I say that the duo is not to be missed. This time, it's major truth. Do not miss this duo! Or a Dalek will EXTERMINAAAATE!

To purchase any of the polishes shown today, look to Pahlish's Big Cartel shop, and Facebook page, Blog, or Instagram for updates. Other stockists of Pahlish are Llarowe and Edgy Polish.

Indigo Bananas Thursday

Good morning! I have a new-to-me brand to showcase today, Indigo Bananas! I have been eyeing her products for a while, I honestly can't tell you why I hadn't purchased any until now, each one of these polishes were stunning. The four polishes I was sent are ones that could be worn by themselves or layered for a whole other look, and I thought I would wear them both ways. Formula wise, they are great. Not too thick or thin, though I would recommend waiting a minute or two between coats if you are going for three layers. 

Indigo Bananas 2% Butterscotch Ripple 

Three coats

Plum jelly base with gold to green color shifting glitter

Love the name reference from Willy Wonka. And the polish color, it's so delicious looking. 

Layering it over the creme Tom Ford base allows the glitter to pop. 

Indigo Bananas 2% Butterscotch Ripple 

Layered over Tom Ford Bitter Bitch

Indigo Bananas A Star to Sail By

Three coats

Clear base with gold, pink, pink to gold flakes and added holo micro-shimmer. 

Beautiful! Only one word for it. 

I love the warm tone to the look as well as the high impact reflective effect.

Indigo Bananas A Star to Sail By

Layered over Elevation Polish Sample XXH #5

Indigo Bananas We Are the Music Makers 

Three coats

Teal jelly base with teal to blue to purple color shifting glitter and holo sparkle

Seriously gorgeous. I can't believe just how much it is, especially in person. 

I really loved this one more by itself, I liked how it looks in the teal base rather than layered over a darker color. 

Indigo Bananas We Are the Music Makers 

Layered over Magnetic Freakin' Violet

Indigo Bananas Hot Ice Creams for Cold Days

Three coats

Fuchsia jelly holographic base with holographic glitter and violet color shifting shimmer. 

BAM! In-your-face color and holo. As well as another name reference to Willy Wonka. 

Indigo Bananas Cuticle Balm in Macaroon

I was asked if there was anything in particular I wanted to try and the cuticle balm was definitely my pick. 

I have been using it for a couple of weeks now and really love this product! 

I apply it each night after I remove my polish from the day. It absorbs quickly and is not too greasy, allowing me to type on my laptop, mess with my phone, generally go about my evening without worrying about greasy fingertips. 

I like the Macaroon scent quite a bit, I believe that is one of her newer scents that will be releasing soon. It's a little sweet without being overwhelmingly so. 

I don't use cuticle oils, I much prefer balms and lotions and was very impressed by Indigo Banana's balm, I would recommend it to anyone who was looking for something new to try out. 

Indigo Bananas products can be purchased in her Etsy store here, as well as through Edgy Polish and Mei Mei's Signatures. Updates regarding the brand can be found on her Facebook page and website.
