illimité Impressionism Collection (Swatches and Review) | NailsByErin

Hello everyone!

Today I have a swatch and review for the entire Impressionism Collection by illimité! These polishes are exclusive to Live Love Polish and are designed and made in New York City.

I was so excited when I received these from LLP because I have seen them all over Instagram, and they looked so gorgeous! The polishes all look so unique and I love the packaging and design of the illimité brand. The bottles come in little white boxes and have the beautiful gold illimité logo across them. Plus, I absolutely love how the line is inspired by past artists and their work!

Il était un vernis "Monsieur Je T'aime" Swatch and Review | #SwatchSunday

Hello everyone! Happy #SwatchSunday :)

Today I have a swatch and review of Il était un vernis "Monsier Je T'aime", a gorgeous teal holographic polish. I purchased this polish from Live Love Polish, though it is currently out of stock there.

Anyone who knows me knows that blue and blue-green polishes are my absolute favorite. A few months ago, I spotted this on the LLP site and I knew that I had to have it!

#SwatchSunday: Model's Own "Pear Purple" Swatch and Review

Hello everyone! 

Today I have a really beautiful swatch to share with you. This is Model's Own "Pear Purple" from their Diamond Luxe collection. The great thing about this polish is the subtle micro-glitter. If you look at it closely, you can see very fine gold glitter! It is so beautiful when it catches the light, yet not too overwhelming. The color definitely still takes center stage.

First up is Color Club "Pucci-licious" is a gorgeous cool purple cream that is completely opaque in two thin coats. The application was so smooth and the polish itself is beautiful!

Valentine's Day Nails: Pink Stripes with Heart Studs

Happy Valentine's Day, everyone!

I've been a little under the weather for the past few days but I wanted to do a quick Valentine's day design for you all!

I've seen a lot of lip manis, a lot of pink gradients, and a lot of gradient hearts, so I wanted to try something different and a little more simple. I decided on this stripe design, and I used the heart studs to capture the Valentine's day theme.

#SwatchSunday: China Glaze Swatches and Review

Hello everyone!

Today I'm sharing with you these beautiful China Glaze polishes that I received from Live Love Polish. I am in love with these colors! Wearing such vibrant polishes really brightens up a gray winter day.

I hope you're ready for some swatch spam! This is a photo-heavy post!

Geometric Striping Tape Nails

Hello everyone!

When I got a few polishes from Live Love Polish a while back, I chose a gorgeous holo by Color Club called "Blue Heaven". Unfortunately, I've never really gotten around to using it, and I've been a little hesitant since I don't usually wear holographic polishes. So, I decided to incorporate it into a mani in small pieces! :)

China Glaze "Keep Calm, Paint On" Swatch and Review

Hello everyone!

Today I have another swatch and review for you! I received China Glaze "Keep Calm, Paint On" in my recent haul from Live Love Polish.

In case you don't know, Live Love Polish is new an online nail shop. They offer great brands like China Glaze, Model's Own, NCLA, Color Club, and more from all over the world! The best part is that Live Love Polish guarantees authenticity for each polish, so you don't have to worry about getting knockoffs. They get their products directly from the brands rather than unreliable discount suppliers that could be selling fake, defective or expired nail polishes. Live Love Polish also has fast shipping, and yes, it is international!

"Keep Calm, Paint On" is a light green/mint green creme with a subtle silver shimmer. This polish is sooo pretty and the little bit of shimmer is only slightly noticeable but it makes a huge difference. It is so beautiful!

China Glaze "Too Yacht to Handle" Swatch and Review

Hello everyone!

I'm back with another swatch from the polishes that I got from Live Love Polish!

(More info about Live Love Polish can be found on my last blog post and at the bottom of this one)

I have been so excited to try out this one! I've been eyeing "Too Yacht to Handle" for a long time. I love blue-green colors and I have been wanting to add this one to my collection!

(Oh, and if you haven't already noticed, my nails keep getting shorter and shorter. My squares have been breaking like crazy on the corners!)

"Too Yacht to Handle" is a bright aqua/teal creme that leans more towards blue in brighter lights and more towards green in darker lights. I am wearing 3 coats with top coat in the photo above, and it is shown in natural lighting. As you can see, the green tones really come through in the slightly darker lighting.

LVX "Aster" Swatch and Review

Hello everyone!

Last week I received a few new polishes from the new online shop, Live Love Polish!

I wanted to do some swatches of each polish to show you all. I am so excited about them, they are so pretty! :)

The first swatch I have decided to share with you is LVX "Aster" I had never heard of this brand before, but I was pleased to find out that this they are 5 free, cruelty free and vegan. Their polishes are also unfortunately a bit pricey: $16 a bottle. But, when seeing the price it is important to keep the quality in mind, and this polish doesn't disappoint.
