Llarowe - Colors By Llarowe Show Me Collection

Good morning!  I am beyond in love with the polish I have to show you today.  I know Colors By Llarowe has always put out high quality gorgeous polish, but I really feel like Leah Ann stepped it up a notch for this collection and the result 4 seriously amazing polishes!  The Show Me Collection debuted on July 13th (or 14th) and is a set of multi chromes with just a touch of holo sparkle.  They are mostly all available and each 12 ml bottle retails for $12.

Up first I have Show Me Again!.  This is inspired by Ludurana Show - a Brazilian brand polish that has been difficult to get into the US lately.  Show Me Again! described as an "aqua blue to purple to green to pink multi chrome with a touch of holo added for sparkle."  It's suggested to wear this over a royal blue or medium orchid color but you can also wear it alone, which is what I did.  The formula was amazing.  Very creamy and rich in color.  I only needed 2 coats of Show Me Again! for full coverage and my goodness the color shift is very prominent.  No topcoat used.

Next is Show Off!, a "copper red to gold to yellow multi chrome with a touch of holo added for sparkle."  Show Off! is such a gorgeous polish!  It's so luxurious and rich.  Show Off! is THE perfect Fall polish!  It reminds me of burning embers in a fireplace.  We had another fabulous formula here - super creamy and easy to work with.  I used 2 coats of Show Off! for full coverage and no topcoat.

Show Me the Love! looked really similar to Show Off! but it is actually very different.  Show Me the Love! is a "magenta wine to gold to copper to orange with a hint of purple flash multi chrome with a touch of holo added for sparkle."   Show Me the Love! is another polish that screams Fall to me.  It's such a cozy, warm and romantic shade.  Once again, amazing formula that applied like a dream.  I used 2 coats of Show Me the Love! and no topcoat.

And finally we have Show Me Da' Money!  Show Me Da' Money! is a "gold to green to blue to yellow multi chrome with a touch of holo added for sparkle."  I am completely loving the color shift in this polish.  It's fun, slightly bright and very 'look at my nails.'  Show Me Da' Money! is just like the last 3 formula and application wise.  Both were amazing.  I used 2 coats of Show Me Da' Money! for full coverage and no topcoat.

I couldn't resist putting all 4 polishes from the Show Me collection on together.  I LOVE how they look together!  It's the most fun multi chrome rainbow skittles ever!  I used 2 coats of each color and no topcoat.  From pink to index I have on" Show Me Da' Money!, Show Me Again!, Show Off! and Show Me the Love!.

Lynnderella Salad Days and piCture pOlish Kryptonite

I'm on a little minication so I am going to drop this post quickly just to give you something pretty and sparkly to oogle.  If you like green, sparkles and glitter then THIS is for you!  It's gorgeous and was so sparkly in the sun!  I paired up piCture pOlish Kryptonite with Lynnderella Salad Days and it made quite a pair!

Kryptonite is a fun jelly based polish in a beautiful deep emerald green color.  It's full of sparkly holo particles!  Application was nice and easy.  The polish flowed smoothly and spread easily on my nails.  I used 2 coats and had great coverage.

I then dabbed Lynnderella Salad Days on my tips.  Lynn describes Salad Days so nicely that I am just going to share it here..."Garden variety: tender lettuces, herbs, radishes, tomatoes, rapscallions and carrot chiffonade. A young, bright green with dressing on the side."  Now I want a salad.  Mainly a green glitter polish, there are also red, orange, yellow and purple glitters.  It's a mix of hexs and bars and it's one of my favorite Lynns, so much fun in one bottle!  Loads of glitter come out with each brush dip and it all laid on the nail nice and smooth.  I used one layer of topcoat to seal it all in and give it a glossy shine.
