China Glaze Cowgirl Up Swatch

 oHello!

Today I've got a swatch of an older polish, China Glaze Cowgirl Up. This came out in the Rodeo Diva Collection from 2008. My swatch pulls really red toned but it is more purple than my picture. It is an intense (slightly frosty but NOT brushstrokey) berry purple shimmer. It has a standard China Glaze two coat formula and it very flattering and pretty. Its actually a perfect fall polish but I wear it year round.


What do you think of Cowgirl Up? You can still find this polish here on 8ty8beauty.com for under $4 :) Thanks for reading!

I'm home! + Hare Dig Day Dream

Finally. After seventeen hours of traveling I am cosy in my bed :) I have tons of nail mail to show you from my August haul but for now here is a swatch of on of the polishes I got!

This is Hare's Dog Day Dream. I love the name, it reminds me of "the dog days are over" :) and in this case it's true! September is upon us and I am wearing this to try and squeeze a little more summer out of 2012!

This polish is a gorgeous deep jewel toned pink jelly base (appears as a very pretty berry color on the nail after two coats). It's full of chunky pink shimmer, pink and red hex glitters and purple square glitters. It's incredibly pretty, shiny, & squishy, and VERY sparkly in the sun.

This is just two coats for opacity and it applied very nicely. No sinking glitter, no tacos, and no fishing. A very user friendly glitter polish:)

Please excuse the state of my nails and cuticles. My poor nails took quite a beating at work. I refuse to let that stop me from wearing pretty polish though! And I think Dog Day Dream looks pretty good on my nubs :)

Have an awesome day!
