Lush Lacquer's I Lost My Marbles

Lush Lacquer's I Lost My Marbles!

Lush Lacquer's I Lost My Marbles is definitely one of my favorite things!!!  *^_^*
I was so excited when this arrived, I walked in the door, dropped my bag and immediately did my nails! I love pink and this polish is a pretty pink and so fun! The first 2 photos were taken today, I've had I Lost My Marbles on for 5 days and it's only just barely starting to chip on one or 2 nails.




This was the most fun I've had doing my nails in a while! I Lost My Marbles has blue, purple, hot pink, pale pink, and orange matte glitters and purple hex's. I picked a matching purple and blue as accent nails embellished with pink rhinestones to coordinate with this wonderfully fun polish. This is the happiest mani! 



I Lost My Marbles glides on very smoothly. For this mani I used Seche Clear (my favorite base coat that protects nails from staining) and 2 coats of I Lost My Marbles, and 1 top coat of Seche Vite (my favorite dry fast top coat that has always looks wet-shine shiny). Lush Lacquer's I Lost My Marbles is definitely one of my favorite things; I'm so happy to have it in my polish collection and on my nails!

I also ordered Lush Lacquer's Gypsy Blue; I can't wait to try it out!!! *^_^*
I'll be reviewing that next so do check back.

****** Extra note added 6/12/2013 ***** 
I goofed up on my mani and bumped my nail causing a big chip which resulted in peeling off half of my polish on a nail this morning. As I had no time to remove the old polish and reapply as I was walking out the door, to quickly fix this I grabbed the polish and just added to cover. To my wonderful surprise, I Lost My Marbles polish instantly smoothed over the obvious chip line, and there is no telling that I covered up my boo-boo! I Lost My Marbles is a completely self smoothing formula and was a dream to use, especially in my instant of rushing to repair on my way out the door to work! I really LOVE LOVE LOVE this polish!!! *^_^*

    Milani Neon Blue with Fantasy Fire & Sally Hansen's Prisms Diamond Rose Pink Mix Mani

    Milani Neon Blue with Fantasy Fire & Sally Hansen's Prisms Diamond Rose Pink Mix Mani



    Today I'm wearing a 2 color mix & match mani, which I thought I'd love but I'm probably going to change tonight. I love the 2 colors individually, but they just aren't my favorite thing together. The Diamond Rose Pink is a discontinued Sally Hansen holo and it's truly gorgeous. 

    The Milani Neon Blue is great neon blue alone; however it's pictured here with a single top coat of Fantasy Fire which gives it wonderful holo color changing from blue to lavender to purple. This Milani formula is a great polish; it glides on solid and full color in one coat application and it is a self smoothing formula which I just love.




    Above is the actual neon blue color poish; really a great blue!

    I've just ordered Lush Lacquer's I Lost My Marbles and Gypsy Blue!! I can't wait to get these 2 in and do my nails! I'll review them as soon as they arrive! =)

    Max Factor Max Effect Fantasy Fire nail polish

    Max Factor's Max Effect in Fantasy Fire!!!

    <3   Love Love Love!!!  <3


    My favorite thing today is my DIY manicure with Max Factor's Max Effect Fantasy Fire nail polish. I fell head over heels for Fantasy Fire, thanks to all the bloggers out there who shared their photos and views of this gorgeous polish. I've been fortunate to come by this wonderful polish, as it is nearly impossible to get here in the US. This is the polish also called by nail bloggers the world over as 'Unicorn Pee' because it is so rare and mystically magical! I know, I know: the nickname gives quite the image! :/   At any rate, many thanks to a contact in the UK for helping me in this polish hunt!

    Fantasy Fire is a holographic polish from Max Factor's Max Effect series. Fantasy Fire is a multi-faceted polish with all the hues and colors imaginable; it changes colors depending on how the light hits your nails! This is the polish also called by nail bloggers the world over as 'Unicorn Pee' because it is so rare and mystically magical! (I know, I know, the nickname gives quite the image! :/ Colors appear ranging from a rich burgundy to a coppery chocolate to a passionate plum to an intense green glow.  It is intended as a top coat to be used with undies (polish colors underneath). Max Effect polishes come in tiny bottles, so they must be used sparingly; which is difficult when you love Fantasy Fire as much as I do! Luckily it is going on 4 days with no chips and still looks like a brand new manicure! Have a look below and see what you think.

    D:  The bottle is as tiny as my thumb!

     I created a black cherry base with 2 colors combined to use as undies for Fantasy Fire. I used polish colors pictured above for this DIY manicure, listed below in order I applied to my nails.
    1. Sally Hansen Diamond Shine base coat
    2. A dark greenish black by Opi (I've had it a while, the name isn't readable any longer.)
    3. Avon's Cherry Jubilee
    4. Max Factor's Max Effect Fantasy Fire (2 coats)
    5. Seche Vite top coat (BTW my favorite top coat that has a nearly wet appearance. It bonds with your color polish creating a solid and long lasting manicure.)
    6. Wet n Wild's Wild Shine in clear (I added this a day later because I love the wet look.)




    The iridescent shows up well here.


    The green really stands out in these 2 photos.










    All these wonderfully gorgeous colors in this tiny little bottle!


    Hopefully you can see the shimmering flecks of sparkle in this close up.

    I hope you're able to see the wonderful spectrum of color Fantasy Fire polish gives in these photos. I absolutely adore this polish and I am thoroughly enjoying this DIY manicure. Fantasy Fire nail polish is definitely one of my favorite things! What do you think about it?

    I'm anxiously awaiting Max Factor's Max Effect Dazzling Blue. I can hardly wait to apply it to my nails and post all about it!

    Until next post, happy blogging! =)
