Esmaltes Da Kelly Sabrina & Lonely Is the Night

Good morning dears!   I've come to the end of my South American international review spam!  This is the final brand I have to share with you and I specifically saved these 2 for last.  When I initially opened my blogger package I was immediately drawn to these and they didn't disappoint!  Esmaltes Da Kelly is another Brazilian indie polish brand with tons of pretty polish.  I went to check out the Esmaltes Da Kelly website and it's got a notice that it will soon be moving, but there is still some polish posted for your viewing pleasure.  Once again, if you don't live in Brazil don't fret, Sisi at Color4Nails can hook you up!  She has a great selection of EDK in stock!  They are $8 for each 8 ml bottle.  You can also follow Color4Nails on Facebook (you really do want to like this page!  Sisi has flash sales, promotions and giveaways all the time) and Instagram (color4nails).  

*PRESS SAMPLE*

Up first is my favorite of the 2 EDK.  Sabrina is a simple but gorgeous golden holographic glitter polish.  Sabrina is VERY sparkly.  The base is clear, so it would take quite a few coats to build this up on it's own, if at all.  I chose to layer Sabrina over 2 coats of Zoya Piaf, a pale, creamy, shimmery yellow.  I then only needed 1 coat of Sabrina for maximum holo-sparkle effect.  The formula and application were both great.  I used 1 layer of topcoat.

This is Lonely Is the Night and it's a very pretty "dark blue jelly with fine blue and black holographic glitters."  I loved the color and the sparkle factor!  LITN had a formula that was a tad thick, but it wasn't difficult to use.  I'd suggest using a touch of thinner if you feel yours is also thick.  I used 2 coats and had a little visible nail line showing.  If I added a third coat it likely would have disappeared.  I used 1 layer of topcoat.

Red Dog Designs Unicorn Kisses

Morning polish friends!  I'm revisiting an older polish from Red Dog Designs today!  Back when Gina first opened shop this one one of the polishes she offered!  Well she's bringing it back so say hello (again) to Unicorn Kisses!  If you want to see my previous post for it you can find it HERE (she had changed the name so don't be confused when you see a different name featured in the old post)!  You can Follow Red Dog Designs on Facebook and IG (reddogdesigns) and can purchase directly from her shop link HERE.

I started this mani with Illamasqua Superstition and Nomad on the accent nail.  I used 2 coats of each color.  I then used 2 coats of Unicorn Kisses.  Unicorn Kisses is a sparkly and colorful mix of rainbow colored glitter hexs, silver holo hexs and holo shimmer.  Hullo sparkles!  You could opt to do a light sprinkling of kisses or if you're in the mood for some lovin' you can go heavy on the kisses!  I went heavy, yeah baby (say that in a Barry White voice).  I used 2 coats of Unicorn Kisses and the formula was nice and easy to work with.  Tons of glitter came out and it spread easily on my nails.  Same formula and application that I've come to expect from all my beloved Red Dogs.  I used one layer of topcoat.
