Spring Fling Challenge : Indie Skittle

Hi guys ! Hope everyone is had a fantastic weekend ! Mine was nice and relaxing taking care of my cold, and Alex got a little sick toom so here's hoping to a healing week.

Today is the first day for Elena and Kelly's Spring Fling Challenge. I have been really looking forward to this challenge for some time now. The theme for today was an indie skittle, but since I don't own any indie polishes, I'm using some of China Glaze "Indie Inspired" nail polishes, as well as a special polish mixed by a dear friend. ♥

For this mani I used the following polishes -
Pinky - China Glaze It's a Trap-eze
Ring - China Glaze Aquadelic topped with China Glaze Whirled Away
Middle & Pointer : PPL Snow Topped Mountains
Thumb : China Glaze It's a Trap-Eze

Here is the link of the other lovely ladies taking part in the challenge ..
Elena - Ecklipsedbycolor
Kelly - Tuxarina
Hayley - PolishedAtHeart
Erin - LovelyLacqueredLife
Ghila - NailsNoob
Sparkly Nails - SparklyNails
Hope you have a happy Monday !

    Aw dear! I really was looking fwd to see you entry too, and I am so relieved to see that I'm not the only one not having actual indies and getting to be creative in this sense. As always you did a super neat job, I love how you interpreted this one, differently from my mess. Thank you so much for linking us. I am a super fan of it's a trap-eeze, but I also love how you've matched the other shades. Which is your friend's mix? Well done honey, LOVE.

      I love them so much, I think I need to hide whirled away or it will end up in every mani. ♥

    I am agreeing with Tuxarina on this - I skipped that ChG collection and now I'm thinking that was a big mistake! Very nice mani!

      Sure hun, you are indeed a very special and dear friend, even when your far away in Italy. ♥ I'm on the mend, Alex is just stuggling with his cough.. Getting worse some days and other times he's running around taking over the world .

Catrice ICONails Gel Lacquer Review and Wear Test

Hi guys. Happy Monday. How was your weekend ?? Today I will be sharing my review on the Catrice ICONails Gel Lacquer . I have worn this quite a few times since buying the product - so I have a pretty good idea how it preforms. The colour I got was a typical Lynette colour - The Catrice ICONails Gel Lacquer in Donut Worry be Happy. This is such a gorgeous fun pink colour. The range does have quite a few colour options - and what I do like about the range is that no top coat is needed. So while I always top coat polish or gel polishes - I didn't when I tested this out. Since I did mention I have worn it quite a few times - I always wore it without top coat. The polish dries amazingly fast - and is dry enough to not make dent marks on it within 20 minutes. Which I think is pretty impressive for a polish without top coat. The brush is on the thicker side - making the polish super easy to apply. I prefer nailpolish brushes like this since it's mostly just one swipe on each ...

CATRICE TREATMENTS SERUM REVIEW

Hi guys! Happy Wednesday. How was your week? I totally lost a day with the public holidays and Easter Weekend threw into the mix ... I was pretty convinced today was actually Tuesday. As I mentioned in my New on my Beauty Desk post in February - I got a few Catrice serums from their new range to try out. In total I picked up the Hydro serum as well - so today I will give you a rundown on the three serums I chose from the range to my routine.  Overall - I have a pretty good idea of which ones I love - which ones are good and which ones I'm not 100% sold on.  CATRICE HYDRO PLUMPING SERUM  This serum contains 1.5 %  hyaluronic acid and panthenol to plumps up the skin as well as have a soothing effect on the skin. Hyaluronic acid is well known to hydrate the skin and absorbs easily into the skin super quickly. I love using Hyaluronic Acid in the morning before applying make-up as it gives me a hydrated base to work with. Honestly, while I did enjoy using this serum - I d...
