Rainbows for June? Groundbreaking 😂

🌈🌈🌈

I recently managed to acquire a few older Revlon polishes that wound up giving me a nice little rainbow. It wasn't intentional at the time, but it was a happy surprise when I realized it! The drawback of starting to look for older shades is the terrible skinny brush though...4 out of 5 here have it. (I can change brushes, but sadly I'd have to change caps too, and I don't wanna do that for these) 😖

From pinky to thumb:

Enchanting: bright lavender cream, easy two coater, a bit surprising as the first coat was watery sheer. 

Sassy: bright spring green cream, another easy two coater (nearly one coater, even...this one was much more substantial formula-wise). It dried with a few bubbles, but only on one hand, so I guess that must have been my fault, not realizing I had too much on the brush? It wasn't thick or hard to work with in any way, so I'm a little stumped by the bubbles.

Zealous: bright and sunny yellow with gold shimmer. It's a yellow, and a fairly sheer formula, so three coats were expected and required. If I hadn't been using a topper, I might have even gone with a fourth coat. Also dried with a few bubbles, but I did go a bit heavier on the third coat for better coverage, so this was unsurprising. 

Tangerine: bright and juicy orange shimmer. A touch sheer, so I needed three coats, but they were easy peasy (and no bubbles this time, yay!)

Vivacious: bright bubble gum pink cream. Surprisingly easy two coater, though this is the one with a wide brush so I'm sure that helped tremendously. 

The topper is Butter London All You Need Is Love, a fabulous mix of red, orange, gold, green, blue, and purple glitters in all different shapes and sizes. I did two swipes with the skinny side of the brush down each nail to get a nice and dense stripe ✨🌈

@ather 

Thanks so much! Rainbows are great year round, but especially this month 🌈

[CynthieLu]

It's the month for rainbows @RGbrown 🌈❤️ Fantastic Mani! I'm double complimenting this,  I love your mani and your creative use of toppers! 🤩

@CynthieLu 

Thanks so much! I love a good rainbow, and sparkle is pretty much a requirement for me 😂✨🌈

@RGbrown Wonderful rainbow cream mani. I like how the yellow and orange shades have shimmer in them. The colours all work so well together.

@Mellmars1185 

Thanks so much! I'm loving this mix! 🌈

Love this mani, @RGbrown ! 🥰  The stripe of topper is so creative, such a great look!

@Titian06 

Thanks so much! It was nice to mix up my glitter placement this time 💖

[Titian06]

Here's my latest mani:

Thumb and ring:  Black Dahlia Lacquer, Blooming Lilac.  A lovely plum with micro pink, blue, and purple flakies.  The flakies are very noticeable in the bottle, but nearly impossible to see once applied.  I could barely see them when scrutinizing the polish in direct sunlight while waiting at traffic lights.  Two fairly easy coats; could have used a little thinner.

Remaining fingers:  Zoya, Marnie.  Gorgeous cream reddish mauve.  Virtually the same color as Blooming Lilac.  I can only see a nano difference in direct sunlight.  Two super easy coats.

Love a good purple @Titian06. You gave 2 beautiful shades here 💜 Do you have a preference between the two? 💅🏼 

[Titian06]

Thanks, @itsfi ! 💜💜💜  No preference.  Both colors are so similar that if you're thinking of picking up one, go with the formula you prefer.  The shimmer in the BDL does not show up IRL other than in the bottle, so make your decision based on the color (or who has the better sale 😁).

@Titian06 @Such beautiful colours! 

[Titian06]

Thanks, @ather ! 💖💖💖

[CynthieLu]

Oooh that is a shame @Titian06. If there were flakes and holos in the bottle I'd hope to see them on the nail too. 

This berry color theme is gorgeous thou😍 

[Titian06]

Thanks, @CynthieLu 💖💖💖

Pretty combo, @Titian06.
