Emily de Molly Cosmic Force

  This is an Indie brand from Australia, so if you live there you can easily purchase her items from Etsy.  I actually managed to get my big mitts on Cosmic Forces during Llarowe's restock last week, her stuff always sells out with in minutes. 

Here is what I used today:  all purpose glue as a base, a quick coat of OPI Ink, and Nina Pro quick dry top coat.  Glitter polishes are a pain to remove, by using the glue I should be able to peel the polish off when I'm done, I'll let you know how that goes.


 This consists of lavender holo dots, hex and pink dot glitter suspended in a purple jelly base.


My thumb has two coats by itself, and the others are two coats over OPI Ink.

 Some fishing is required to get the bigger dots, which I failed to do I was so happy with how this applied that I failed to notice I was missing stuff.  The application was smooth, it has a nice size brush and it dried quickly.



Thanks for stopping by!

Zoya Tinsley

From last weeks Nail Mail, I am going to be taking a closer look at Zoya's Tinsley.
Tinsley is from Zoya's Irresistible Summer 2013 Collection.

Zoya describes Tinsley as a full-coverage rose gold foil metallic.


The application was smooth, but I wouldn't call it full coverage.  It took three coats to get it opaque.  It's been well over an hour and I'm still getting dents on my thumb and I only used two coats on that one and that's with a quick dry top coat.  I guess I got spoiled wtih the Pixie's, those dry really fast.
The gold really stands out when in the sun.
In the shade it looks like a coral instead of pink.
Since I can't leave things alone here it is stamped using the DRK-A Plate, Zoya Nina, and 
Essie Good as Gold.

When it's all said and done I am very happy with this addition to my Pink Collection!
