A mossy green

Hey everyone~As promised, here is a post of Bootie Babe Cosmetics Bossy mossy. To be honest, I'm not usually one who wears 'ugly' colours like this one. And...I'm not sure I like it that much either :P Shown is two coats of Bossy mossy. As I mentioned in my previous post, the brushes in the nail polish are short and stiff, which makes application a little more difficult.

Because I wasn't so certain about this shade, I decided to layer over it a coat of OPI Super bass shatter. It's an interesting combo and the purple shatter definitely pops better than over Metallic 4 life!

Overall though, I wasn't a fan of this mani and took it off asap, haha. Oh, and Bossy mossy stains. A lot. I have extremely yellow nails now...I look like I've been smoking for years! :(

What do you think of 'ugly' shades like Bossy mossy?

Thanks for reading :)

Swatches and review: Bootie Babe nail polish

Hi ladies! :) Last month, I had the opportunity to receive the most awesome packaged nail polishes ever. Yup, you guessed it - I'm talking about the hilarious bum shaped bottles sold by the people at Bootie Babe Cosmetics! For more information, check out here and here!

In terms of application, the brush was short and a little stiffer than I'm used to. As a result, I had to apply carefully and redip my brush into the polish a few times so that I could cover my nails. The handle is small and so it makes holding and controlling the brush clumsy. I hope that Mark can fix this though, as I think these polishes are so fun!

From left to right, top to bottom:
Bossy mossy, Hella baloo, Lemon nada, Pinky dinky

From pinky to index:

3 coats of Lemon nada: This is a bright neon highlighter yellow. At three coats you can still see vnl - definitely not a polish which will reach opacity!

2 coats of Pinky dinky: A medium tone barbie pink shade. I think I might actually like this pink! *shockhorror*

2 coats of Lemon nada over a white base colour: Oh, so bright! A little too bright for my taste as I'm not a neon girl but layering over a black crackle would make a pretty mani!

2 coats of Hella baloo: A pretty dark sky blue crème. Watch out for this one, it stainsssss :( Definitely double on the base coat when wearing this one.

Like I said before, if the brush was fixed and maybe the handle a little larger, these polishes would be lovely :) Check out Bootie Babe's website for more polishes! These nail polishes are currently sold at $4 per bottle, although I remember them retailing at $9 before. I'm unsure if the price change is a temporary sale or a permanent change - in any case, grab these asap! International shipping is also available :)

I'll be posting Bossy mossy in my next post as I wore it as a full mani and layered another polish over it. In the mean time, what do you think of these bum shaped polishes - tacky or hilarious?

Thanks for reading!

Bootie Babe Cosmetics

Hello ladies~ I'm still a little under the weather but much, much better than a couple of days ago! I recently received in my inbox some information about some new nail polishes from BB Cosmetics.

I love how unique these bottle shapes are, seriously, whoever thought bums could contain nail polish? :P These totally need to be the 'other half' to Nfu Oh polish bottles XD

The shades look amazing and so right for the summery weather we're having here in Australia now. These twelve shades of nail polishes are available on BB Cosmetics' website. Each bottle retails for $9US and the good news is, they ship internationally! Besides nail polish, BB Cosmetics also offers six different perfume fragrances, which you can check out here.
