Bootie Babe Fashion Nail Lacquer Review/Swatches


Mark O’Hara( founder & CEO of Bootie Babe Nail Polish  has dreams of an entire booty-themed lifestyle line. He noted that very few nail polish lines have custom, distinctive bottles–so his butt bottles would definitely stand out in a crowded market.

I know If I saw these around while shopping I would have screamed and went crazy because of the neat unique bottle/funny original nails and the awesome colors there something about these that make them so different from others , for me I'm all about packaging and thing that look cute , girl , fun but yet feminine , so I know I needed to add these bootie butt to my nail polish wall .

 What Bootie Babe Fashion Nail Lacquer Has To Say ..... 

A new beauty brand from San Francisco with a line of nail polish featuring bootie shaped bottles!

The company is proud to announce the 2013 Nail Polish Collection with 48 sexy shades and featuring an "industry-first" in unique packaging: crazy, cute and collectible bootie shaped bottles!With names such as “Butt Out", "Red Riding Rump" and "Uncanny Fanny", the product line has generated tremendous excitement all over the world. 

What I Received .....
Top Shelf -[ Super Hot Pink /Creme Finish]
Fine Behind-[ Creme Mint Pastel Green/Creme Glossy Finish]
Junk In Da Trunk-[Deep Cranberry Red W/Small Glitter/Glitter Finish]


Formula....
SuperBooty LLC understands the need to market cosmetics that are safe,
free of toxic ingredients and developed using cruelty-free testing procedures.
Bootie Babe lacquer formulations are developed specifically to be “California Safe”,
and do not include chemicals such as formaldehyde, toulene, and dibutyl-pthalate.
  
Overall , Im impressed with the formula , I wish it was more opaque and didn't require as many coats , but that true with any nail polishes , the polish itself is very smooth & glides on well with no bubbly or thickness once applied , however the some color can be sheer and may require more coat then other , also I found the glitter base 


  
The Brush....
 The brush is a Dupont applicator brush for durability and ease of use, however I thought is was alittle tough to use and was a little stiff , but then again I prefer a wider brush since I have large nail bed , even those I wasnt a fan of the brush that wouldnt  stop me from buying these cute little gems .


Staying Power....
 I was super impressed with the staying power and how fast the polish dried , each polish Ive tried from Bootie Babe has mega fast drying power , my nail were dry in under 5 minutes ,now dont get my wrong im sure other take longer depending on how many coats and if the glitter and what not , but I was blown away , now how did my mani hold up ? EXCELLENT , I couldnt be please any more , my mani last a wonder 12 day before my polish started to badly chip and come off in big flakes , I never had chipping , peel , flaking nothing , just the normal wear on your tips but it wasnt even noticeable that much , it was that good .  





Price/ Packaging....
Each bottle of Bootie Babe Fashion Nail Polish weighs .5 oz (14.8 ml) and includes a tall cylindrical cap and Dupont applicator brush for durability and ease of use.  Each bottle comes with a glossy gift box and 2.5" Bootie Babe logo sticker. Bootie Babe Nail Polish retails for for $12.00(USD) . The Bootie Babe 2013 Nail Polish Collection is now available for sale online and at wholesale prices for distributors and retailers in the U.S. and internationally.

My Thoughts....  
 Overall  I loved everything about these nail polishes , being a nail polishes hoarder I know I needed these , I loved everything about them from the unique packaging/ polishes name & awesome color selection they offer , However to many they will either hate them or love them because of the bottle and think is sexist to have a " BUTT " bottle , to me I think it is cute and creative to be able to have something that is so different and unique and isnt the same as the normal square nail polish bottle. I cant wait to purchase more of them and display them on my makeup vanity & nail wall .

Chrome Girl Nail Polish Review/Swatches


Hey everyone! Sorry for the lack of posting yesterday, today I bring you a new line of polish in the nail polish industry , Chrome Girl , they are taking over the nail polish world with there nail polish line , Chrome girl not only offers great nail polish but a rainbow of color , anything from , glitters, chrome finish , creme or bright color , you name it they have it !!! Hope you enjoy they post and check out Chrome Girl , You will love it .

What Chrome Girl Has To Say .....
Chrome Girl Nail Polish is about art, about playfulness, about having a passion for the bold. It is a brush of whimsy, a stroke of fancy, and the brilliant sheen of confidence . A 4-Free and Vegan Nail Lacquer Collection that is Made in the USA. 
 
What I Received....
Chrome Girl Nail Polish In Barely Legal [Creme Pastel Baby Blue]
Chrome Girl Nail Polish In Bedroom Eyes [Chrome Silvery Blue]
Chrome Girl Nail Polish In Party Star[Clear Base W/ Small Glitter Shimmer]
Chrome Girl Nail Polish In Endless Summer [Creme Bright Banana Yellow]
Chrome Girl Nail Polish In Love Notes [Rich Cranberry]
Chrome Girl Nail Polish In  Shmexy [Creme Minty Green]
Chrome Girl Nail Polish In Pucker Up[Bright Rich Red Pink]
Chrome Girl Nail Polish In Bed Head Blue [Creme Bright Med Blue]
* Please Excuse The Red Polish , For Some Reason This Polish Was Feathering On Me *

Formula...
   A fashionable alternative to the harsh and dangerous nail polishes currently on the market. It is a product that is 5-free, which means it is produced without formaldehyde, DBP, toluene or camphor, and is vegan. It is on-trend, ultra-cool and offers lacquer colors that appeal to everyone. 
[ All the polishes I was sent are all opaque after 1 coat]

Brush....
The brush had great control, it is your typical nail polish brush , long bristle and semi skinny brush , however I had no problem with it .
Application....
The application is beautiful with these polishes , each polish glide right on to your nails , there was no bubbles , sloppiness or sheerness , just one perfect application , you will get a perfect even coat each time you use these polishes .

Longevity....
I found these polish last a long time , I could wear them for up to a week + a few extra days , plus if you use a great top coat you will get even better wear out of them. I never had flaking/peeling or chipping , just the everyday wear on the tips.

Price ...
Chrome Girl Nail Polish retails for $10..00 for 0.5 fl oz, Chrome Girl can be found online at chromegirl.com/ .

My Thoughts....
This nail polish is having your cake and eating it, too. The finish is hi-shine, it goes on easily and dries quickly (I'm fairly impatient so this prevents smudges for me every time!) although this is quick drying nail polish, it also wears on me for over a week, doing dishes and all. I've been waiting for a product like this to come along and can't wait to buy more colors.

NYC Sun 'N' Bronze Bronzing Powder Review

Why not giving your skin a new bronzed dimension all year around?
New NYC SUN'n'Bronze combines best shades ever for perfectly-sun-kissed-look. Choose the one that fits your skin colour.Being sexy tanned has never been so easy. Just smooth it on you r face and get the sunny glowing look!!!

 
What I Received..... 
Sun 'N' Bronze Bronzing Powder (708) Coney Island Glow [colors contrasted with a champagne/ivory highlighter mixed inbetween]


Sun 'N' Bronze Bronzing Powder (710) Sunsational [colors contrasted with
a  pink,champagne/ivory highlighter mixed inbetween]


Sun 'N' Bronze Bronzing Powder(707) Fire Island Tan
[colors contrasted with a tan/dark brown bronze , highlighter mixed inbetween]



Sun 'N' Bronze Bronzing Powder(709) Montauk Bronze[colors contrasted with a tan/dark brown bronze , highlighter mixed inbetween]


Texture.....
This is a luminous, borderline sparkly, bronzer with a soft, silky pressed-powder texture that applies smoothly. Each bronzer comes with three shades that, when swirled together, create a variety of shimmering bronze hues, from peachy tan to deep bronze, depending on which set you choose. Although this is more glitzy than we recommend using all over the face, it's worth considering as a bronze highlighter or blush, especially for evening or special-occasion makeup.

Staying Power...
The staying power is nothing special, but dint let that worry you , I have oily skin so must product like this this with shimmer in it , and bronzer in general make me look muddy after a few hours unless there matte , however this is matte so this only last about 2 hours on my face before I started to see fading or it getting muddy , but I didn't mind touching up since I do enjoy the color and the highlighting effect this give to your skin.

Pros:
  • Silky pressed-powder texture applies smoothly.
  • Luminescent finish works well for highlighting.
  • Variety of shimmering bronze hues.
Cons:
  • Too shimmery for a classic makeup look.

Benefits...

Ultra fine, smooth and lightweight texture
Flawless and natural sun-kissed finish
Ultra sheer & soft application 
 
 
 
Packaging/Price....
Im not of fan of this type of packaing at all , but then again it is drugstore and you pay for what you get, the packaging doesnt seal , it is a plastic lid that just set on the base of the product and you just pul it right off , it does not swivel or turn on the packaging to seal the product closed , however this wouldnt be a good product to travel with since it closure isnt very secure , each package does have the name of the product on the bottom of the bronzer, on the bright side dispirit the lid , the lid is clear so that mean you can easy see the product and easy identify it . NYC Sun 'N' Bronze Bronzing Powder retail for $4.99 for ( 0.42oz or 12g) and can be found at any drugstore selling NYC products ( Walgreen, CVS, Rite Aid , Meijer & Walmart).
 
My Thoughts.... Overall I like these products ,really good bronzer/highlighter! If you are super pale, like me, and most bronzers make you look like your face its dirty, this is a product you may appreciate. It gives me just the right amount of color with subtle shimmer and a nice glow. I just take a powder brush and swirl all of the colors around and then brush it all over my face. It is not too powdery. It does not clog my pores or break me out either, which is good since I have sensitive/oily skin , however these are on the market as bronzer ,I myself wouldn't use them as a bronzer just because they do have shimmer in the but as a highlighter they  work great, they give you the perfect sun kissed glow to the cheekbone but also giving you the pop/warmth of color to warm up your face . I would buy this again!
