Pretty and Polished Jawbreaker

When I first saw this, I wasn't really sure what it was supposed to resemble. A quick google told me Jawbreakers were a type of lolly. I think I called them Gobstoppers. The ones I had as a kid were layers of solid colour and made by "Wonka" (which I thought was so cool). Anyway, I digress...





Three coats. I really liked how this looked. The red squares were a pain to get out though. They were thoroughly stuck around the bottom of the bottle. But I definitely think it was worth it - I love the mix and ratio of glitters. I do however kind of hate the new labels. The font and the huge white sticker just don't do it for me... lol.

Bottle Spam - Pretty and Polished, HARE and Nostalgic

I'm really loving making these bottle spam posts. It means I can show you all the pretties while keeping my current mani intact. Right now I'm wearing The Glittering Crowd over Revlon Royal and it is just too pretty to take off any time soon. But please, feel free to let me know if you think these posts are boring and pointless.

Pretty and Polished Tart

Now that my belly has swelled two sizes from all the Cadbury Creme Eggs I've eaten, let's take a break from all that chocolate and instead have some Tart ;)




Two coats of Tart on China Glaze Light as Air. Blue, yellow, purple, red, white and neon pink and purple glitter in a sheer lavender base. It's also got a subtle blue shimmer that I couldn't capture. My bottle seems a bit different from the original with the addition of the white and red glitter. I still very much like it though!

You can check out Pretty and Polished on Etsy although I don't think Chelsea is putting up regular restocks of Tart which is a bummer.
