Nailtini: Head over Heels nail polish from Tinibeauty, The Lacquer Cabinet

I do not enter contests often but when BeautyUndercover had a giveaway and I saw the colors, I signed up hoping to win. I did not even look the colors up because they were all gorgeous, so I figure I like heels, so I'll go with the lacquer named Head over Heels.

I won and it's a double win because I picked a fabulous color. Glitter nail polishes are beginning to blend in my head to the point I am shying away from picking any more up because I may own it already or a cousin like it. Head over Heels is in a class all it's own and not attached to a season or even holiday. It's beautiful and I love the ease of application. Head over Heels is a shade, which is part of the Limited Edition named Love, Roxie Collection.  The base is smooth and allows you to glide and disperse the flecks of glitter like you always imagined you would do, but once the brush hits the nail......well, I find myself dotting here and swiping there and even wiggling glitter off. It's the game of take away, where I have some nails perfectly glitter-fied and others look neglected, so I apply more and then it goes too much the other way. I appreciate the smoothness with Nailtini's formula, and the color in the bottle looks exactly as it should when applied. I now have harnessed glitter control powers!

I applied 2 coats and it dries fast, so you can set up quickly and bedazzle your nails at anytime of the day or night. You can apply straight from the bottle with no base color and because I'm Head over Heels when it comes to shoes.....my toes got a very needed pedicure.

On I went with finally coordinating my hands to my feet....not something that happens very often even though I mean to.

Check out The Lacquer Cabinet and the Nailtini collection of limited nail polishes to the everyday beauties we all like to wear. Shades are made in the USA and I love supporting a California Company!  The formulas last long and application is a cinch. I also have a little sugar to sweeten the deal because I believe in saving bucks! You can order below and use code BUC20OFF and order a single collection for 20% off, that makes it $20.00 and that includes shipping....so no funny stuff. The code expires on April 30, 2014.  You don't waste gas going out and the box is delivered to your door.....now, if I could only get a hairstylist delivered the same way, I'd be golden!

It's tops for me because it stands up to the cooking, the cleaning, the husband, the dog, the gardening. Is it nail lacquer or pretty, pretty nail armor? I love it.

Essie perk provided by Klout, Strokes of Brilliance

I having been working my way through the Klout World, a site that rewards you for being....well Y-O-U.  They measure your influence in social media and thousands of other topics.  As your score goes up and up, it opens the door to perks that are related to your topics (you can work on 20 at a time).  One of my many interests is Nail Polish so I chose this as a topic.  No sooner that I pick it, that door opens where I qualified for a perk and it was the Essie nail polish in the color of "strokes of brilliance".  I like glitter and sparkles but dislike how it feels raised on a nail.  I tend to rarely use it because it catches on things and I have to admit something, I then pick at it.  Shameful!  The other factor is it takes longer to dry because you have to add an extra top coat on top of the glitter, polish, base...you end up with 4 coats if I just do one coat of color.  You add the "bed sheet" lines the day after, if you catch my drift.

So, I notice this polish says, "Top coat".  That's a first for me as they mostly usually have a name and it ends there.  I thought for a top coat, it better deliver.  I decided to try with a light french tip.  I noticed the sparkles have a mirror like effect versus just iridescent glitter.  They reflect, not shimmer.  The picture shows a blue tone but you get grayish hues too. Your clothing plus surrounding light affects the color they reflect so I liked that.  If the room is not bright, the shine is not, so they seriously do tone down to fit the occasion.  What I liked best is how the formula settles on the nail bed.  You do not get one speck out of place where it stays lifted to catch stuff.  It does not chunk up and for once it works as advertised, a perfect top coat.  I love it and I'm looking forward to my second Essie perk on Klout that I will be sharing next.  By the way, I'm on day 5 with no chips or missing sparkle!
