Snowman Polish: Teal

This cute little snowman is a teal cream that I got last year at Meijer. It dries matte like a neon would, but I wouldn't really consider it neon. I really like the color, but I think it looks horrible on me....of course that still doesn't stop me from occasionally wearing it.

Snowman Polish: Red and Green Glitter

This is my favorite Snowman polish of this year's release. It's classic Christmas, red and green hex glitters in a clear base. How perfect! I wore this over Tip Toe Holiday and I really love it. Holiday is just light enough that the red glitter in the snowman polish is still visible.



Here's a closeup:

Snowman Polish: Gold Foil

So, I got this Snowman polish from my BF Shmoopy when she did her last purge and I've never really worn it before. It's from I believe 2009. This color rocks, although the picks give me a horrible case of the lobster hands! LOL. This is two coats w/o topcoat.



Today's Christmas pick is a Fleetwood Mac Christmas penguin!

Snowman Polish: Purple Glitter

Today I have another snowman glitter polish, this is purple glitter in a very light purple base. It's opaque enough to wear on its own, but can also be layered. I of course choose to wear it solo, just sheer enough to see a bit of natural nail peeking through.





(Ha! poor pooches, but what a cute pick! LOL)

Snowman Polish: Green Glitter

I love me some Snowmen! This is another one of the new colors I picked up at Meijer this year, it's a green glitter that has a gold-ish flash to it. This is one coat over the previous green I posted. I really think the two greens compliment each other nicely.

Snow - already??

Ok, so can you belive we had our 1st snowfall the other day in Michigan?? Thankfully it didn't stick, but there was some serious looking fluffy snowflakes falling. I think it's going to be a very white season and in honor of that, I'm posting my 1st Snowman polish of the year.



I found this Meijer and I have to say, I'm a bit disappointed in the selection of Snowmen polishes this year. I only picked up three. I guess the plethora of pumpkin polishes (ha!) spoiled me 8-)

Snowman purple glitter + Eleese purple

Talk about a match made in Heaven! Eleese dark purple jelly with the purple glitter snowman overtop = the perfect polish combo.

I swatched this snowman earlier this summer here and I liked it over a light base, but this combo really shows it off much better.

This snowman is a purple jelly base with light purple micro sized glitter and larger square holo glitter mixed it. Make sure you enlarge the picks to see the details!!

Snowman purple glitter

So, I needed to revamp my Island Girl mani after a couple of days, so I decided in honor of my air condition breaking in the middle of 90 degree weather, I would use one of my Snowman colors (thankfully it's fixed now). This one is from I believe 2009, the year before they added those cute little hats on top. I love this guy! I got it from my BF Shmoopy when she did her last purge. Thanks Shmoop!!!

This is one coat over Island Girl 2008.

Let it Snow(men) pt 2

Ah, I've saved some of the best for last here. This Snowman is a blue foil color that I found at Rite Aid. It can be a one coater if you apply carefully, excellent coverage on this one and amazing pretty:


Here's a good closeup:


The base color on this one is clear mixed with red micro glitter:


It's a bit too shear to wear on it's own, which surprised me. Looking at the bottle, I thought it would be like Ruby Pumps..but not so much. Still nice though, so I of course layered it over Femme Noir:


And my last snowman is a clear base mixed with regular sized silver holo glitter:



This one can be worn in it's own if you layer up enough (make sure to use the foil method to remove it), but it's also sheer enough to layer over another color....yes, Femme Noir again ☺ It's a chunky glitter, so you'll want to wear a top coat. I used Sally Hansen Hard as Nails for this swatch.


Well, that's it' for my snowmen. They're so festive, yay Christmas!!

Let it Snow(men) pt 1

Aren't the little guys cute? You can find them at Meijer and Rite Aid. They don't come with names, each bottle is labeled "Snowman".

This first color is a neon pink base mixed with holo micro glitter. Like most neons, it dries matte, so you'll need a top coat. I used Sally Hansen Hard as Nails on this swatch since it's not supposed to dull holos as much.


Next one is a simple mint green cream. Cute, but I think if I were to wear it, I may want to Konad over it or something to jazz it up a bit:



and this last guy is a red jelly base mixed with regular sized holo glitter:



Here it is by itself and layered over Femme Noir. I was of course most excited about this one...I mean, red holo? That's right up my alley. But it's too sheer on it's own, it's definitely a layering polish:



I really like it over Femme Noir. I've come to find that FN is a nice base for layering!
