Summer of Untrieds Day 18: Green

Good morning and happy Friday!  It's been quite a week, mostly of sleeping for me because I am still so darn tired from staying up late in Vegas.  But I also got to spend time with my BFF who lives in Idaho, yay!  Actually I am eating breakfast and getting ready to pick her up and head to the beach, more yay!  So here's my quickie post for day 18 of the summer challenge - the theme is green and I picked out one that I've had for a while now and I'm so glad I finally tried it on.  You can join in the challenge by posting your pictures to Facebook or Instagram and using #summerofuntrieds, julyuntriedchallenge or #wishesofablueeyedgirl.

This is Ocean Mist from the Beautifully Disney line.  The line is actually full of makeup: shadow, lipstick, lipgloss, blenders, nurses, etc...and of course a pretty extensive line of polish.  There are mini sets and full size.  I picked up 5 last time I went and the colors are all pretty fab and include neon, shimmers, holo, texture and cremes.  Ocean Mist is inspired by Ariel (no surprise) is a medium toned green base full of sparkly golden shimmer and mini flecks.  Formula and application were both great. I used 3 coats of Ocean Mist and no topcoat.   So what do you think of Ocean Mist?  I think it's great and am excited to try out the others I have!

HOLO WEEK: Day 5, Part 2 - Celestial Cosmetics

Good evening!  Aren't you lucky?  You get 2 holo posts today!  I received these in the mail and couldn't not include them in holo week.  They were just too gorgeous.  Celestial Cosmetics is an Australian brand, but you can purchase them at Color4Nails.  I don't even want to take up your time reading...let's just look at polish!  I will start off by saying each of these had amazing formula and application.

Mrs. Claus' Jugs is a holo from the A Very Merry Aussie Christmas collection.  Sure it's from the holiday line up but guess what?  This "bright green linear" holo is absolutely perfect for the spring!  It's bright and beautiful.  I had great coverage in 3 coats.  No topcoat.  





Sun Kissed is a perfect color for tanned bodies and sitting out on the beach!  This bronzed orange linear holo is a real stunna and I'm totally not biased with my professed love for orange.  I used 3 coats and no topcoat for full coverage.  





Noel's Nuts is another polish from the A Very Merry Aussie Christmas collection.  It's a perfect "soft blurple linear" holo.  There's a pretty noticeable pink shimmer to it that is lovely.  I think this would be an awesome, sexy date night polish!  I used 2 layers and no topcoat.  





Moonlight Glow is a gorgeous pink linear holo "with a light blue undertone."  This one was almost a frosty holo - likely from the amount of shimmer in it.  I thought it was unique and pretty.  I used 3 layers but 2 would have been completely fine.  No topcoat. 





Sand Dunes stole my heart.  I am a sucker for these shades and this "bright bronze/brown linear" holo is a real winner.  It's another color that will look stunning on some bronzed skin!  Thank goodness I tan and don't burn because I will be rocking this shade all summer long!  Sand Dunes also has micro holo glitters in it that really set it apart making it unique and fun.  Lots of depth and sparkling holo goodness.  I used 2 layers and no topcoat.



  

Finally I have Ocean Mist.  Man the colors in this collection are making me long for the summer and the beach.  This fabulous and glowy teal linear holo was amazing.  I loved the color!  I used 2 layers and no topcoat.
