mmmm beetles!! Warning: there are BUGS in this post!

I picked up Hard Candy's Beetle about a month ago and didn't really want to swatch it, because it's not fall/winter and I really just wanted to swatch Bright and Shiny things:)

But last night, I couldn't resist the urge and I did it! woohoo!!


The nail polish reminds me of these beetles.


 How cool to have your skin, or in their case, Chitin, change in sunlight.










Well onto my swatches!




On my truck lol

These are all three coats with LA colors base coat and Seche Vite top coat.

This color changes from a purple/maroon, to an olive green/almost yellow color, depending on which way your nail is turned

I noticed in the shade or inside the reddish color is more of a dark maroon, but in the sunlight it becomes an awesome bright purple

I couldn't really capture it's color in these photos.






Like the indent on my middle finger? I did it just for you :)

Blurry goodness

I







I noticed at the tips of my fingers and at the cuticles when there was wear, it became more green/blue than the rest of the polish.

A very trippy polish, and I am most impressed at only $6.00.

Final Verdict: LUBBS IT!!!! thanks for reading! have a great night!

Hard Candy Haul ~ Eye Shadow and Lip Glosses

Second Part of my small Hard Candy haul! What do you think of Hard Candy? Do you like the payoff for the amount spent? Do you like the packaging? I think it's so cute! So here is my eyeshadow and glosses... mwah!!

 This is Hard Candy's Split Personality Shadow Duo in Dazed. There are screw tops filled with creme shadows on both ends. They screw onto sponge applicators.
Dazed Silver 

Dazed Silver

Dazed Metallic Purple


This is Glossaholic in 'Lush' I love this gloss!!! i wish I had a better camera so I could show you all the flakies in it!!

It tastes and smells like a vanilla cupcake. So yummy...

This also has HUMONGOUS brush! I have some voluptuous lips and this applicator is almost too big for me.


 This is Hard Candy's Plumping Serum in Life Preserver.

If you have ever tried Physician's Formula Plumping gloss, you know how much it plumps and makes your lips look huge.



This does not have the same effect, but they have awesome colors and great glitter! So It def makes up for no plumping :)


Okay Sweeties... have a great evening! Mwah!!
