Miss Professional Nail 'Sation' Swatches & Review Part Deux

Good morning, all! 

Today I have the second half of the Sation polishes that Miss Professional Nail sent me! These three polishes are a part of Sation's permanent collection, unlike the previous three I reviewed the other day, which are limited edition polishes. Again, all of these polishes are 3-free and available on Miss Professional Nail's website for $5.00 each. If you'd like to know the other major details, please visit my previous post. :)

Onto the polishes!

First, we have Rusty Brick.

Rusty Brick is pretty much just that - a burnt, rusty looking orange. I'm not usually big on oranges and the only ones I have are neons, so this was a nice addition to my collection. I really loved it once it was on. ^_^ This lovely creme reaches opacity in just two thin coats. 

Next is Cimarron.

I. Freaking. Love. This. Polish. Cimarron is a medium toned pink creme and so, so yummy. I was very excited when I received this in the mail the other day and it did not disappoint. This one also reached opacity in just two thin coats. :L

Lastly, there's Gold Glitter.

Gold Glitter consists of small gold glitter suspended in a clear base and applies like a dream. This is one coat shown over Cimarron. It's simple but super pretty, regardless. I'm not a huge fan of gold anything, but this was also an exception. :i

L-R: Rusty Brick, Cimarron, Gold Glitter.
So, this concludes my Sation swatchathon and review. How do you like them?! I'm really pleased with all the polishes I was sent, even though half of them were colors I normally wouldn't buy myself. I enjoy being introduced to shades that aren't quite "me" so I can learn to love them. :) 

Thanks for reading, loves!

Miss Professional Nail 'Sation' Swatches & Review

Hello, pretties!

So, I'm terribly sorry for, yet again, another absence. >.< After my finals were over, I got scheduled ten consecutive shifts at the restaurant I work at within six days, so it goes without saying I was pretty freaking exhausted. Then I headed to Knoxville for a few days for my boyfriend's grad school graduation and to help him move into his (and soon to be our) new apartment! So that was exciting. ^_^

What's ALSO exciting is that in this post I will show you three of six new polishes that I was sent to review last week! I never thought I'd ever be asked to review polishes for anyone, so when Kate from Miss Professional Nail asked me if she could send me polishes to review I was obviously elated. 

The three polishes I have for you today are members of a new limited summer collection called California Gleamin' which is a part of Miss Professional Nail's signature line, Sation. Sation is re-branded and modernized with new bottle shapes and new awesomely wide brushes! Application was a dream with these new brushes. 

First up is Pink Parfait!

Pink Parfait is a bright, neon pink creme. It photographed a BIT more red than it is in real life, but it's still pretty close to being accurate. It's such a wonderful shade. I love me some bright pinks. :D This is three coats. 

 Next up is You Butter Tell Me.

This polish is BRIGHT. :e I absolutely love it. You Butter Tell Me is clearly a super bright, neon yellow creme. This polish was pretty sheer so I applied three coats over one thin coat of China Glaze White On White. Isn't is gorgeous?! Very eye-catching. 

 And last but not least, Oh My Oceania.

This was by far my favorite of the three. Oh My Oceania is a bright turquoise with royal blue shimmer. I've been very drawn to blues lately so this really made me happy. It looks wonderful outside in the sunlight. :) This one was the most opaque of the three; it's just two coats. 

L-R: Pink Parfait, You Butter Tell Me, Oh My Oceania

So, this is just a glimpse into the awesomeness of California Gleamin'. I've seen two others from this collection and they're equally fantastic. These should currently be available on Miss Professional Nail's website for just $5.00 and also available in select local beauty stores while supplies last. These polishes are also formaldehyde, DBP, and toluene-free. 

Please stay tuned for three more polishes that are a part of Sation's permanent line!
