I am happy to share with you some gorgeous polishes from the Cadillacquer - "Breaking Bad" collection. This collection includes twelve interesting colors, and I was generously given six of them to review and share with my dear readers.

The polishes and the name labels are inspired by the TV series Breaking Bad and they retail for 12.50 USD. Be sure to take a look at the rest of the colors from the new collection here.

In this post I will be showing you my swatches of these three gorgeous colors: (L-R) There's No Better Reason, Blowfish and  I'm The One Who Knows.

There's No Better Reason is a dark ash base with gold shimmer and a gorgeous scattered holo effect. I even noticed that in shade, the beautiful golden shimmer looks a bit like tiny green flakes that merge nicely to the base color, giving it a green undertone.
I needed only two coats of this color to get it completely opaque, and topped it with one coat of Poshe to add it some shine, which made the shimmer pop and look fantastic.

Blowfish is a very light green, tho I really want to describe it as a light gray with a green tint. It has a delicate and lovely effect that unfortunately was very hard for me to capture on camera. It contains tiny flakes that change their color from blue to pink and a scattered holo effect that is more noticeable in the bottle than on the nails. I find this color very interesting and it actually reminds me of a gloomy sky before it rains.
This color was a bit on the sheer side so I needed three coats for full coverage, and applied one coat of Poshe.

I'm The One Who Knocks! is a dark green with light green shimmer, such a beautiful combination that I would love to call 'forest green'. I have seen comparisons of this polish side by side with A England Dragon, and I can tell you this is a worthy opponent, tho beautiful on it's own.
The formula of this polish was great and I only needed two coats for complete coverage, and to add it more shine I applied one coat of Poshe.

Overall I was very impressed with the colors I've got to try so far, I found these colors very interesting and unique, and I actually have to admit I don't have anything like them in my (400+) nail polish collection. I really enjoyed their formula and application, and tho Blowfish seemed a bit too sheer at first, I got surprisingly good results with three thin coats.

Application was a pleasure as well, thanks to the flat and relatively slim brush, tho the ridges on the caps were a bit painful to deal with when closed firmly.

This weekend I went for a classy red look with OPI You Only Live Twice. I've wanted this color for a while and finally decided to get it, and I'm glad I did because it was gorgeous as I imagined it would be.
OPI You Only Live Twice is a shimmery red that looks amazing both in the sun and in the shade. I couldn't decide if it's shimmer or really tiny glass flakes that are in it, because in some angles you can see the pink shimmer shifts to gold, which is a really beautiful sight. In the shade, this color might seem a bit metallic, and when in the sun it glows beautifully.
The formula was great, two easy coats provided perfect coverage and a beautiful shine, tho for these photos I added one coat of Poshe for a longer last of this manicure.

In case you were wondering what does this tiny Eiffel Tower has to do with this post, this is actually a closeup photo of the ring I am wearing at these photos. I got this awesome ring from eBay (just search for 'Eiffel Tower ring'), and this is defiantly one of my favorite jewelry pieces I have purchased lately. I love how it's designed to look like a miniature of the Eiffel Tower, and how elegant and gorgeous it looks as a ring on the finger.
Hope you enjoyed this post, thanks for stopping by!

Today I have a delicious chocolaty manicure to share with you, created with one of the gorgeous glitter polishes by Shimmer Polish.
I layered Shimmer Crystal over a rich chocolate base (LA Splash Forbidden, 2 coats), creating a glitter gradient at the base of the nail, then topped it with one coat of Poshe.


Shimmer Crystal is a gorgeous glitter mix of copper and brown, and additional colors like burgundy, teal and silver that make this glitter more interesting and dimensional. The glitter is mixed in a slightly brown tinted base, which is great for layering this polish on it's own or over darker colors as I did for this look.
As all Shimmer Polish glitters, this polish is also packed with a generous amount of glitter that makes application easy and gives great coverage with just one coat. This is also a great polish to work with when creating glitter gradients.
I think this is a great glitter for autumn, the colors in this polish are just perfect for this season. It actually makes me think of Thanks Giving (tho we don't celebrate this holiday here lol)!
I hope you will like this look, feel free to let me know what you think, I always love reading your comments!

In case you were wondering where I disappeared for the last two weeks or so, I'm here to let you know I went on a lovely vacation to Switzerland (and a few lovely places in the area) and now that I'm back, I'm getting back to work on new posts for you.

Tho I planned on posting while on vacation, I found that I didn't really have much access to a computer during that time so I wasn't able to post at the blog as planned, so I really hope you will forgive me for disappearing for a while.

I wanted to share with you some pictures from my vacation, hope you don't mind these are not nail polish related, but they were so pretty that I think you might enjoy them as well.

Hope you will like this post, and I'll be back soon with more new posts, this time nail related! :)
