Girly Bits What Happens In Vegas...Ends Up On Snapchat

Aloha from Hawaii!  I am on vacation in paradise and enjoying it so far!  We arrived yesterday and our resort is just so beautiful.  Like they took paradise and made it even better.   I have a couple posts to share with you while I'm here and the first one is the newest addition to the Girly Bits What Happens in Vegas collection!  I reviewed the previous ones HERE and HERE and now I've got What Happens In Vegas...Ends Up On Snapchat!  I'll admit I have no idea what Snapchat is.  I thought it was for sharing pictures that get erased after a few seconds so I don't know how that works for social media sharing.  But maybe I'm just old and not hip anymore.  But what I do know is that this polish is AMAZING!  Now I don't have exact release date information, but I do know WHIVEUOS is Limited Edition and will be available for pre-order in early to mid August.  I pinky promise to update you with availability as soon as I hear something solid.  So let's jump in and check out this gorgeous polish!

Just thought you'd like to see all 3 of the What Happens In Vegas Ends Up On... polishes together!  Aren't they lovely?!  From Left to right they are in order of release: Facebook (2013), Instagram (2014) and Snapchat (2015).  I can't wait to see what next years addition will look like!  

Girly Bits What Happens In Vegas Ends Up On...

THIS is What Happens In Vegas...Ends Up On Snapchat!  Its a gorgeous soft, pastel purple linear holo with a helping of tiny silver holo glitters.  The formula and application were on point!  Creamy, opaque, smooth, buttery, fabulous, perfect...I can give you a slew of words describing how I felt about this polish.  I think you get the idea.  I used 2 coats for full coverage and finished with a layer of topcoat.

I decided to use all 3 What Happens In Vegas Ends Up On... polishes to do a gradient!  It turned out so pretty!  I started with a base of Zoya Ana and then sponged on a few coats of the 3 WHIV polishes.  I have them sponged on from top to bottom: Instagram, Facebook and Snapchat.  The only one that didn't really want to show up to the party was WHIVEUO...Facebook.  I think it must just have a lighter pigment.  I topped this with 1 layer of topcoat.

Glisten & Glow Cocktails Anyone? Partial Review; Midori Sour & Raspberry Margarita

Good evening dears!  I am back from CosmoPro and have so many pictures and exciting things to share with you!  Of course it's gong to take me a good amount of time to get those post up so hang tight while I work on those.  I also have about a zillion polishes to share as well, some of which will be released very soon so I thought I'd try to share some of those right away.  The first collection is the upcoming Glisten & Glow Cocktails Anyone? collection.  This collection consists of 8 polishes (which I believe are all linear holos) in fun, drink inspired names.  Cocktails Anyone? goes on sale on 7/24 at 7pm EST.  I also have a discount code to share with you!  You can save 15% by using CPNA2015 until 9/30/15.  So let's jump in and see what the 2 holos look like that I received in my gift bag from attending the Cocktails & Colors party!

Up first is Midori Sour.  Yum yum!  This is a golden chartreuse shade - a perfect blend of yellow and green.  The linear holo is strong and beautiful.  I found the formula and application both fantastic.  Easy to work with, smooth and opaque.  I only needed 2 coats of Midori Sour for full coverage.  It wasn't needed, but since I had a bottle of HK Girl topcoat to use I did.

The other shade I received in my bag was Raspberry Margarita.  Another yum drink.  This is a bright berry/pink linear holo.  Again the holo effect is uber strong and gorgeous.  The color is fabulous - I mean who doesn't love a perfect pink?  Formula and application were just like the last; easy to use, smooth flowing, opaque.  I used 2 coats of Raspberry Margarita for full coverage and though it didn't need it I used 1 layer of HK Girl topcoat.  It definitely added a glossy glass effect to the polish.
