Loving Sunshine








The Face Shop GR501 + Nature Republic SGR 601

I decided to name this polish combo after my friend Kumi's site, Loving Sunshine. Kumi is a really sweet blogger who sent me both these polishes in one of our recent swaps! This combo is so bright and happy looking, I think it really channels the positivity that Kumi always tries to promote through her blog (:

As much as I liked GR501 on its own, I got sheet marks on it from sleeping that night! I guess I shouldn't be too surprised that the polish didn't dry completely, since 5 coats is a lot! SGR 601 is a really dense glitter, so I only needed one coat (shown in the pictures above). I sealed my nails with 2 coats of Seche Vite top coat because it still felt a bit bumpy after one coat.

That glitter looks so unusual! I love that it's not heavy on the silver.

Ahh this really made me smile from ear to ear!!! :D it's so pretty! I knew it would be really pretty and heavy on the glitter but wow. i cant believe that's just one coat! :D I'm so glad you liked it!!

Quite sorry! Didn't expect the lemon shade to be THAT sheer. 5 coats? crazy! But i think it's such a unique color (esp on the bottle)!

This would have to be my favorite nail post from you HAHA :D
