Lynnderella Common Sense

So I know there's a new Lynnderella collection out already (Early Halloween Resurrected), but not only have I not purchased it yet, I know that Sweet Somethings for a Summer Solstice is still available for purchase on eBay. So I figured I'd post swatches of it whenever I wear it in case anyone is still undecided on whether to get it or not :)

 Personally, I LOVE the collection. So today I'm going to show you Common Sense over BB Couture's Erotic Night. I did 2 coats of Erotic Night and 1 coat of Common Sense. But here's where it gets weird. This glitter is so dense that on my first finger it went on (my pinky), I over did it. You can see, even though I tried to spread it out, it just was too much that I glopped onto there! So my next nail (ring finger), came out ok and the middle finger, too. Then I thought, maybe just a bit more for my index finger and BAM! Too much again. So, my apologies for the uneven application. I would have taken it off and redone it, but then I thought this would be a good way to warn you guys about how densely packed this glitter is!

 Ok, enough talk, on to the pictures!

But now look at it in the shade!

So, what do you guys think? I think the copper and pink work really well together! More of this collection to come as I wear it. Thanks for stopping by and have a wonderful day :D

BB Couture Hands of Hope collection swatches

BB Couture released a limited edition collection a few years ago in which 25% of the proceeds went to the Salvation Army to aid the people affected by the Haiti earthquake. There are six colors and I have three to show you today. The other three are called Tortuga Island, Paradise, and Labadie Beach.

BB Couture Cap-Haitien. Three coats.

BB Couture Kyona Beach. Three coats.

BB Couture Bassins Bleu. Three coats.

BB Couture Eye Candy Men swatches

BB Couture Heavenly Hunk. Three coats.

Ruby Kisses Baby Blue Glitter over Heavenly Hunk. One coat.

BB Couture Playboy. Two coats. My favorite from this collection.

NYX Girls Gilded Glitter over Playboy. One coat. Not color accurate but I love this combo.

BB Couture Sexy Centerfold. Two coats.

BB Couture Rustic Romantic. Three coats.

BB Couture Dirty Blonde. Three coats. I found the formula runny and a bit hard to work with.

BB Couture Silver Fox. Three coats.

Overall, I like the women's collection better. The formula on these were on the runny side. Not enough to make me complain like Dirty Blonde, but still noticeable.

Indies: HARE polishes swatches

Halloween 2011: The Creeps

I have two out of the four that were released. The other two are called Bio-exorcist and Heffalumps. You can see swatches and more details about the collection here.

Hare Dead Man's Bones. Three coats.

Hare The Monster. Three coats. This one is pretty gritty and needed a few coats of topcoat to become smooth. I also added thinner to this one because it was really thick and hard to apply.

Spring 2012: Planet Springtime

Hare Asteroid Turf. Three coats. The reason behind the name from Nikole: The name for asteroid turf makes me giggle because one of my best friends grew up with black ASTRO TURF carpet in his bedroom and it was just so weird. I always called it asteroid turf.

Kleancolor Green With Envy over Asteroid Turf. One coat. This one turned the pink glitter orange!

Hare Cosmo Blossoms. Three coats. I really love this one!

Hare Leap Light-Year. Three coats. The big silver square glitters sink, but having the bottle upside down for a while before applying fixes it right up! There are some formulation issues with this one, so it will not be offered in the future sadly.

Urban Decay ID over Leap Light-Year. One coat.

Hare Star Tropics. Three coats. This one also suffers from the sinking glitter and will not be available in the future.

CND Sapphire Sparkle over Star Tropics. One coat.

Hare Twilight Savings. Three coats. The glitter is a little hard to get out of the bottle, but totally worth it!

BB Couture Diamond Dust over Twilight Savings. One coat.

Hare Supernova Springs. Three coats, but probably could have gotten away with two. This one has a very dark purple base.


These next three are the original Leap Light-Year, Star Tropics, and Twilight Savings but the small silver square glitter were a little melty/curly. Nikole was awesome enough to send replacements which I have pictured above. The curling is pretty slight to me so I have swatched them anyways.

OPI Speak For Your Elf. Two coats. An Ulta exclusive from the holiday collection 2011.

Leap Light-Year over Speak For Your Elf. Two coats.

Star Tropics. Three coats. 

Kleancolor Blue-Eyed Girl over Star Tropics. One coat. I didn't shake this one up enough so it mostly just gave the look a blue tint.

Twilight Savings over OPI I Don't Give a Rotterdam. Three coats of the OPI and two coats of Twilight Savings. I forgot to take a picture of I Don't Give a Rotterdam! Oops.

Hare can be purchased from her etsy store: www.etsy.com/shop/HAREpolish

BB Couture Eye Candy Women collection swatches

BB Couture Busty Bombshell. Three coats. My favorite from this collection! I'm quite the sucker for olives.

BB Couture Feathered Vixen. Three coats.

Hard Candy Hot Pants over Feathered Vixen. One coat. These names go together don't they?

BB Couture Junk in the Trunk. Three coats.

BB Couture Scorching Strawberry. Three coats. The formula was a bit runny for me.

Flormar U27 over Scorching Strawberry. One coat.

BB Couture Sweet Silicone. Three coats.

BB Couture Trim and Tasseled. Three coats. I've seen other swatches of this and it is purple. Not sure what that is about. No one does the microglitter in jellies quite like BB Couture. My favorite one is Hermosa Surfer Girl.

Revlon Mint Fizz over Trim and Tasseled. One coat.
