Sinful Colors' Cinderella & Darling Diva's Holiday

I would like to note that for the first time, I've actually come back to a draft of my post in order to completely change my review of a color. This manicure was for Lazycole to enjoy her week off in between jobs!

ilnp Spring 2015 - Mega (S), Timeless Vow, Happily Ever After, and Hush

Today I have half of my most recent ilnp.com order. I've decided to separate them because these 4 were pre-orders from the new Spring collection, whereas the other 4 are just more of the incredible amazing flakies. I'll try to swatch those next.

Before I begin, I'd like to just make a very brief statement about the CC info breach that Barbra (owner/creator of ilnp) has experienced. She had issues in February, hired techs, beefed up security, and still experienced a breach again during her major pre-order sale. My card info was compromised, though I had absolutely no hassle with my bank to get everything sorted, so I'm honestly not too bothered about it.
 I would like to say, however, that upon finding out it was happening to her the first time and again this time, Barbra personally contacted everyone [potentially] effected, explained what happened, apologized, and ultimately decided to only accept paypal in the future because she doesn't want to put her customers in that position again. I will 100% purchase from her again. She handled everything with so much respect that I couldn't possibly ask for more from a person or a company.

That out of the way, let's get to the purdies.

Color Club (holographic) Eternal Beauty & Halo-Graphic .. Ciate Main Stage & Talent Scout

Fortunately, once again, today's manicure is designed by my boyfriend. I apparently have a really horrible sense of colors and am feeling fairly uninspired on my own.

This manicure includes two linear holographic polishes--if you are not familiar with the term, just you wait! Here's hoping for some Spring soon!

Chanel Azure and Essie Peak of Chic

I've been enjoying simpler manicures lately, which is going to be the perfect way to get through all of my unopened glitter polishes.

I've also been noticing that I'm not a fan of the color schemes I end up picking out for myself, so have permanently passed the job to my boyfriend. He just has a better eye for colors than I do.

This week I bring to you Chanel Azure with a couple of accent fingers covered in Essie's Peak of Chic.

I would like to preface these swatches by saying that Chanel nail polishes (and makeup--really anything from this brand) are pretty steeply priced, however I received this polish for my 25th birthday last year from my boyfriend. No wonder I have over 400 bottles... Someone wonderful is enabling me. Hmm.

Anywho, take a look at this beauty, which really is worth every penny.
