Simply Sweet Sundays: Essie Raise Awareness

Hello Babes! October is almost over and I have yet to do a post for Breast Cancer Awareness Month, so I have a quick post of a polish that is absolutely amazing! I have Essie Raise Awareness in support of Living Beyond Breast Cancer, which a portion of the proceeds from sales go to. Raise Awareness is a soft light pink (almost baby pink but not quite, its much prettier) cream polish that has an AMAZING formula, I didn't have to do any cleanup! For the swatches below I used 3 thin coats, 2 is almost enough but I wanted the true color to pop so I did 3. I used INM OTD as my TC because I wanted it to be dry already (I'm wearing this right now), but its super shiny on its own.



Isn't Raise Awareness one of the prettiest soft pinks EVER?! I think it's absolutely amaze! Thanks for stopping by :)

China Glaze It's Alive!

Good Morning Babes! It's Alive is one the polishes from China Glazes 2011 Halloween Collection, the star of the collection in my opinion. The base is a sheer shimmery muddy grass green with small and big green glitter in it. To reach opacity I needed 2 coats and the formula was no problem at all for it to be so jammed packed with glitter. I would recommend a little wait in between coats to prevent dragging, and 2 coats of SV (or a thick top coat) because it dries gritty and rough (I used 1 for the swatches but should have used 2 because it was still a little gritty).


What do you think of It's Alive? I know its been swatched by everyone but I've had it for a while and had to do it before Halloween. I Love It :)  Thanks for stopping by!
