HITS Cutie Pie and Jazz MATTEFIED!!!

As you may have seen my posts from the past couple of days I have added and added to my HITS Cutie Pie manicure! Well today, I have another addition to it!
Hard Candy Matte-ly In Love








Whenever I do duochrome mani's it's almost second nature for me to add flakie and matte to it, it just brings out so much character to the nail polish!!

This combination is one of my favorites to do, duochrome and flakie!! What gets better than that? Just wait and see tomorrow ;)

Franken Feature: Dollish Polish

Dollish Polish Expecto Patronum
Expecto Patronum is a gorgeous white based polish with turquoise glitter and flakies!!! Anyone who is a polish lover and doesn't have this nail polish, needs to IMMEDIATELY!!!



This polish was easy as pie to apply and was easily opaque in two coats. The glitter and finish is not bumpy at all, its super smooth and glossy. The wear was also really good and lasted a lot longer than other brands I have worn. Normally I have to take off nail polish because I notice chipping, but this one I had to force myself to take off so I can wear another color.

I checked out her shop on etsy and she is currently closed. You can sign up to receive a notification for when she will be open again, but I noticed she might be making some changes and sell her polishes elsewhere.

Dollish Polish sells her frankens at $8.00 for a 15mL bottle. You can check out her etsy shop here and view some of her polishes by clicking sales. She also has a Facebook where more frequent updates are posted.

Deborah Lippmann Sweet Dreams

Sweet Dreams is part of Deborah Lippmann's Spring 2012 line. It is a gorgeous pink/fuchsia jelly packed flakie nail polish. The flakies are a gold to orange shift.
Here I have one coat layered over Sephora by OPI It's My Pink scented nail polish. Even after I layered this, I could still smell the scent!
Sweet Dreams was such a breeze to apply and it really is dreamy with a smooth shiny finish!




 A little quick and dirty swatch to show the density of the flakies.




This next picture is the most color accurate.

 Deborah Lippmann Sweet Dreams retails for $18 but I was able to purchase it from HSN for $16 when it went on sale. I don't see it yet on the Deborah Lippmann website, but I am sure it will come soon. You can also "LIKE" Deborah Lippmann on Facebook for updates as well as follow her on Twitter!

 I figured that since I had a Betsey Johnson exclusive as my base that I could do no wrong by stamping a few roses on top of this mani!

Even though flakies have been released a lot lately, you really can not go wrong with this DL color! The pink/fuchsia jelly is just gorgeous and the added flakie is the icing on the cake!

Zoya Anja & Nail-Venturous Rustic Remains



Zoya Anja
Anja is a gorgeous deep dark plum creme nail polish. It reminds me of a dark wine color. Here is Anja applied with two coats, no topcoat.




Anja is a really pretty vampy color. It almost resembles China Glaze Crimson. It really looks black in the photo's but in real life, its a pretty deep red/plum color.

Rustic Remains
I decided to layer Rustic Remains over Zoya Anja. Rustic Remains is another exclusive franken from Amy at I'm Feeling Nail-Venturous.






Rustic Remains is a golden orange based flakie with small particles of multicolored shimmer.
Adding Rustic Remains truly was a miracle!! It looks so gorgeous over Anja and really brings out the best in this color.
