Polish TBH: Rue's Song

Polish TBH:
Rue's song
Hi there everyone! I have here a Hunger Games inspired polish called Rue's Song by Polish TBH. It is a lovely deep plum shade with bits of copper, gold, teal and blue glitter. Below is a photo of the bottle and a close up of polish. It comes in a 15mL sized bottle. 


Below is my manicure. It took me two coats to build opacity and it applied with ease. I had no trouble with the glitter thickening or being goopy at all. I still used a top coat to seal it all and give it some shine. I used Dream Polish Gem Glam Top Coat in Pink Sugar scent. I love that it is a low odor, high shine, and fast dry top coat. 

Below is another photo of my manicure, just another angle. To be honest, I bought this polish because I love the color, I did enjoy the Hunger Games movie and it is the name of my boyfriend's dog; which was Rue, who passed two years ago this month. I did not get to know the dog as well because I was just starting the relationship and he was already in his final stages. From what my boyfriend told me and shown me in photos and videos of when he was younger, he was a very sweet, protecting, energetic, caring, understanding, and loyal Jack Russell Terrier. My boyfriend also told me that Rue changed his view on dogs. He encountered a negative situation with a dog when he was little and this companion completely changed him afterwards. <3

Back to polish now :D My photo below is a close up of Rue's Song on my index nail. I wish I could have gotten a clearer view of the glitter in this close up. It is definitely a beautiful polish. Polish TBH is also having a 35% sale on all polishes. Use CODE: TBHTBH. Her shop will be closed soon and not open for a while. Dream Polish is also having a sale.

Fall Approved Polishes

Fall is Here! 
Fall Manis Too!

I have been gone for a bit too long! I finally have some time to put together some photos and a new blog post! This blog post is a little different from my usual posts. I am sharing some polishes I tried so far that I think are great colors for the fall season; especially in colder climates like where I am in Pennsylvania, USA. Enough ranting though, let the sharing begin! :)

The photo below shows Dollish Polish; Slice of Life with Jolie Polish; Grey Crelly with Liquid Sky Lacquer; O' Captain! My Captain! all with top coat on them. Slice of Life is 5 Free; which means it is formulated without Dibutyl Phthalate, Toluene, Formaldehyde, Formaldehyde Resin, and Camphor, and never tested on animals. It is a gorgeous dark red with shimmer. This polish is based on the show "Dexter". 


This lovely glitter polish pictured below is not only in memory of Robbin Williams, but also each one purchased donates towards raising awareness for depression. 100% of the proceeds get donated. No portion of the money is being profited back to Liquid Sky Lacquer for this collection. This polish is also 5 Free and formulated without Dibutyl Phthalate, Toluene, Formaldehyde, Formaldehyde Resin, and Camphor. 


In the photo below I am holding a bottle of Jolie Polish; Grey Crelly and on the right I am holding a clean up brush I purchased from Jolie Polish. It helps clean around my nails of excess polish and my cuticle area. I highly recommend using this! All you do is dip the brush in acetone and clean up the areas to be cleaned up and to maintain, just use cuticle oil to keep the brush in good condition. Grey Crelly is 5 Free and formulated without Dibutyl Phthalate, Toluene, Formaldehyde, Formaldehyde Resin, and Camphor. 


Next up is a new polish brand I never tried before; Pacifica Beauty. The brand is a cosmetic line that makes nail polishes as well as many other products that are cruelty free and vegan. The polishes are 7 Free and 100% vegan and cruelty free. 7 Free means its formulated without. Phthalates, Toluene, Xylene, Parabens, Camphor, Formaldehyde resins, and Animals.
This polish is called Red Red Wine. It is a gorgeous deep red polish. On my accent nail I am wearing Sindie POP! Born To Die over Red Red Wine. 

 The next polish I love wearing for Fall is Stardust Polish, Soiree. It is a black holo polish with deep burgundy and gold shimmer. It is what I call a color shifter. It looks different depending on the light and angle you hold your nails. as you can see below, I picked up some purple tints in the polish and some holo. (Ingredients to this polish can be found on the Stardust Website below). 

Below I used flash on my phone camera to pick up some more of the holo. I absolutely love this polish and its color shifting. 

I took one last photo of Soiree in natural daylight. Look at all that holo goodness! I love the way it shimmers in the sun. I can stare at it all day! :D


Last up is a new brand to me called Angel Wings Nail Polish by Vanessa. This lovely polish is called The Countess. It is a deep burgundy shade; which is a perfect color for a vamp look ;) It also has holo; which you can see below. Angel Wings Nail Polish is also made with 5 Free polish base as well. :)

Below is Countess photographed in my light box. Looks more of a burgundy/brown shade when not taken with flash. 

The photo below is just showing another angle of The Countess. I really like the color and the colors it shifts to. 


 The photo below is still The Countess. I took a photo of it under the direct light of my lamp. 

 I absolutely love all of these polishes. All are so pretty and apply with ease. There will be more I will be adding to my favorites list for Fall shades I am sure! :) You can find some of these products to the websites below. Have a great week and happy shopping to all!
