The Breaking Bad Collection: I'm The One Who Knocks!
Alrighty guys, only two more polishes! Today I will be showing you I'm The One Who Knocks! from the Cadillacquer Breaking Bad Collection.
I'm The One Who Knocks! is a dark green base with a light green shimmer and a scattered holographic effect. I applied two coats on it's own without topcoat.
It glides on the nail like butter, it dries fairly quick and the formula is flawless like all other Cadillacquer polishes.
You can buy Cadillacquer here and it is available through Harlow & Co. Also, make sure to like Cadillacquer's Facebookpage to stay up-to-date!

The Breaking Bad Collection: Blowfish
Hiyaa! Only 3 more Breaking Bad polishes to go.. Today I will be showing Blowfish.
Blowfish is a soft minty green polish with subtle colour shifting flakes from blue to pink and a subtle scattered holo, which is quite hard to capture. And yes, my camera failed. Again. I used 2 normal coats on it's own without topcoat, though I think 3 thin coats would be better.
Formula is exactly the same as all other Cadillacquer polishes: flawless and aaaawesome.
You can get your own Cadillacquer polish here. Cadillacquer also has a Facebookpage, so make sure to hit like if you want to stay up-to-date!

The Dexter Collection: The End Begins
Hellooooooow! Only two more polishes to go, meh... So, I can definitely say that The End Begins, right? RIGHT. Without further ado, let's move on to the swatches!
The End Begins has a dark green jelly base with copper shimmer, caramel hex glitter and small gold iridescent glitter.
The End Begins applies very smooth and I feel the consistency is just a tad thinner than the 'normal'/other polishes. Shown above is 3 normal coats, but maybe you could try 4 thin coats. I don't know. I still love it to death HA!
I adore the macro of the polishhhhh. I'm so proud of myself haha, seriously I could stare at the picture fo evah!
Cadillacquer is available through Etsy and Llarowe and they are also on Facebook!

The Dexter Collection: Masterpiece
Yep, I know I didn't post anything yesterday. I had a super busy week, all my blogs were post-ready, except for this one.. SORRY! So with a little delay, here is Masterpiece by Cadllacquer.
Masterpiece has a green jelly base with small red glitter and different sized matte hot orange hex glitter.
Shown in my swatches is 3 coats. The polish is rather thin and a bit sheer, but it builds up really nice. It is easy to apply and drying time is normal.
I feel Masterpiece is kind off the outsider of the collection, but that is what makes it stand out of the crowd. It's not as intricate as the other lacquers of the Dexter collection, but when applied it looks so so good. I was pleased to see how unique it looked on my nails!
You can still buy your own Cadillacquer on Etsy and Llarowe and you can still find Cadillacquer on Facebook! ;-)
What is your favourite polish of this collection so far?

Forever Polished - Sea Monster
I'm back with a Forever Polished swatch! This time it is Sea Monster, it is one of my favourites so make sure to check out all the pictures!
Sea Monster is packed with small blue and green glitters and silver hex holographic glitters. It goes on very smootly and the shine is incredible. I am a sucker for blue-ish green-ish teal-ish glitter polishes, so it is no wonder that this polish is one of my favourite glitter lacquers!
I layered two coats of Sea Monster over white and sealed it in with Essence Top Sealer. The accent nail is Only You - White French and rhinestones from Born Pretty Store. You can find the white - light blue rhinestone here, the blue rhinestone here and the small silver ones here. Don't forget to use my coupon code AYJ61 to get 10% off!
You can find Forever Polished here and Facebook, polishes are $8 for 15ml. Make sure to use this special discount code LoveLifeLacquer to get 20% off!

Slimy Nails - Glow In The Dark
Slimy nails, yesss. I never did drips before, so I thought it was about time to do so! I really love how they turned out eventually, because when I started, it didn't look pretty. AT ALL.
I used:
- Essence - Base Coat
- Only You - White French
- Flormar - Super Neon Colors NO14
So yeah, drips. Oh, wait! THEY GLOW IN THE DARK!
I used *ChNail #2, which you can find at Born Pretty Store. It's a very light green, and I picked this colour because it had the strongest glow in the dark effect.
The polish has a nice consistency, but it's different from a regular nailpolish. It's a bit of a granular substancy. But not hard to apply at all and it glides on very smoothly.
I really love the glow in the dark effect, it's something fun and different! I didn't add a layer off topcoat, because the polish gave a subtle, light blue-ish shine, which I like!
You can get this glow in the dark polish (ChNail#2) for $4.99 at Born Pretty Store. Each bottle holds 15 ml. They have a total of 12 different colours, so you'll definitely find one you like! Don't forget to use my code AYJ61 and get 10% discount on your entire order!
Have you picked up a Glow in the Dark polish? What do you think about it?

Striped Tip
Here's what I got on my nails today, striped tips!
I really wanted to paint my nails, but wasn't sure what exactly to do, so I came up with this simple design. I really love the colour combination, not quite "fall-appropriate" but hey!
For this manicure I painted on Kiko - 328 as a base colour. I used Catrice - It's All I Can Blue, Catrice - Innocent Toxin, China Glaze - Aquadelic and Nail Art Brushes from Born Pretty Store to create the stripes on my tips. I finished off with Essence - Top Sealer.
Oh, by the way! You can also find my designs here and here!
