Close up of Sea Mist Sunrise.
here you can really see how much my nail curves
The corner is there,it's just hiding way under.

This was my accent nail.
Silver Cloud Martini shaken with Sea Mist Sunrise.
( I applied drops of color on top of my wet White base 
and used a dotting tool to swirl)

This is just 2 coats plus Ready in 5 TC.
 I'll have a "Silver Cloud Martini" with sugar please.

Application was smooth,even and dries really fast.
I was extremely impressed that 2 coats gave me
solid coverage.

Grab your Sunglasses for this video.

Isn't it just amazing.
All those beautiful colors.
Major Holo Baby!

I have more to share from this Collection.
Happy Hour Collection by Colores De Carol 

I have tested nearly this entire collection so far and
not One single polish stained my nails.
Not even that deep purple.
Application was been smooth,evenly and dries fast too.
So far these seem to be a 2 coater for me with long nails.
If yours are shorter, you'll probably get away with 1 good coat.

Happy Hour Collection Review

Hello Nail Surfers

Welcome to My Beach

I just received the Newest Collection by  Colores De Carol 

Happy Hour Collection

This Collection is a Metallic/Foil Holographic Collection.


I have not tested all 7 just yet.
But I thought instead of over whelming you with loads of
pics at one time, I'll just post more :).
This will help me too.
Also this will give you a chance to get a good glimpse 
at these before she runs out.

SURFS UP

These Polishes have Super Sparkle!
They are a Metallic/Foil Holographic Polish

Of course I have to see if they stamp :).
In the picture below you can barely see 
Silver Cloud Martini . It Stamps but not so bright and vivid on White.



They do stamp on black.
Keep in mind tho, that these are not stamping polishes.
They are Indie Polishes and they tend to also be 
Multi-Taskers too .

This is 2 coats of Sour Grape Bellini Plus a TC.
If you have shorter nails you can get away with 1 Coat.
Application was smooth  and even, these dry fairly fast too.
I also use Colores De Carol
 *New* Ready In 5 Quick Dry Top Coat.
It dries under a minute.
I didn't get a pic of the bottle yet.
But I will. I was so excited with all the other colors that I forgot to get a picture of the Top Coat.
For my accent nail here, I did a Sugar Spun Technique with
Sour Grape Bellini.
This is a Macro shot done inside.
From afar the polish looks Royal Blue, but it's really a Deep Beautiful Purple.
This is also an indoor shot.
I used Bundle Monster BMXL25 for stamping art.

Below is a Link to My Instagram.
This is a 15 sec. Video on these Beauty's Close up.


All of Colores De Carol Polishes are 5 Free and Cruelty Free.most 
They are mixed by hand and most Collections are Limited Editions.

What are your thoughts so far on this set?


I can't get over how amazing the holographic is. 
I was in the Sun today and saw so many beautiful colors.
I just removed 1 nail and there was No Staining!.
Again Application was a breeze. It goes on so smoothly and evenly.
I really love her Formula. 
Oh and They Dry fast too. Which I love. :)

This Review is Not Over.
I still have many more Mani's and Creations to make.

Thank You for surfing my wave.
And I hope you enjoyed your visit at My Beach. :)

Beach Boy's Collection by Colores De Carol Review

Hello Nail Surfers
 
Welcome to My Beach
 
Today I will showing you a New Neon Collection.
Now this Collection is very different from others.
These polishes do not need Undies (a White Base)
And they are Extremely Bright and Very Bold.
Now the photo's your about to see are All Natural.
There is no extra lighting or special editing done to these.
And to be honest they were all taken with a phone camera.
 
 
***HIGH TIDE WARNING***
 
SUFRS UP
 
This was taken on a day that I had a storm coming in.
And yet they Shine so Bold and Bright.
 
At the end of this post I talk about applications.
 
 
 








 
I used just 2 coats plus a top Coat  over my bare nail.
For art I used MyOnline Shop's XXI

I love that when I held a different color it brought out the colors.
 


I wanted to play with all of these at 1 time.
So I decided to do a splatter mani with 3 of them.
I used Messy Mansion 46 for art.


So of course as a stamper, I wanted to see if they work.


It's amazing how the colors changed once I stamped them over a Black Base.
Orange turned Yellow and Yellow turned Green.lol
 
Here I used 3 colors to stamp with on each nail.
( I have a Video coming soon on this)


Look how Bold!
I stamped with Messy Mansion MM29
I used 3 coats of All Summer Long plus a Top Coat
for art I used MM48


I used just 2 coats of Sail on Sailor. Plus a Top Coat

I used JR16 by MyOnline Shop
I used just 2 coats of Fun Fun Fun plus a Top Coat.
 

I used Jumbo V Plate for art. Aka XL V
I stamped in Black first and then again in White.
Double/ Shadowing Stamping.
Wow! Good Vibrations is Really Bold and Bright!
I used 3 coats here plus a Top Coat.
I don't like my nail line showing, so that's why I did 3.
I used Messy Mansion MM48
Here we have a mix of 2 colors.
I used 2 coats of  I Get Around and added a few splashes of
Sail on Sailor. Yep.. It's Blue and yet it left me with Dark Green :)
Which is totally what I wanted.
I used Fun 3 by FabUr Nails for art
I am holding All Summer Long
This Mani is another one that shows  contrast when I hold a different color.
 
I am holding Surfin' USA
See here. The Pink shows a lot more here.
For this Mani I did start off with a White Base.
I added the colors randomly with a sponge.
I did just 2 coats of sponging the colors.
They dry Super Fast.
For art I use Messy Mansion MM49
 
Now truth be told here....
Application was slightly streaky. You'll see spots where it looks
like the polish didn't cover. FEAR NoT. Most of these covered my long nails in 2 coats.
These do dry Fast and dry  Semi-Matte.
After your final coat is dried, add your top coat of choice.
You will see that things level and even themselves right out.
This Collection is able to be used with No Undies.
But that doesn't mean you can't still use a White Base.
In fact if you use a base you may use less coats.
But keep in mind that most neon's that use a base still require 2 coats of polish,
and with the Beach Boys Collection No Base is Required.
 
I honestly feel that these Neon's are the Brightest and Boldest I have yet to see.
Now I did try to water marble with them.
It did not work out well. The Polish wouldn't spread.
But they do stamp :)
 
Most Neon's are always tricky  to apply.
If you use thin coats and don't go back over and over 1 nail while it's still wet,
application can be a breeze. Just remember that the Final Top Coat will smooth everything out.
And it doesn't have to be an expensive topcoat either. :)
I used Fresh Paints from 5Below.
best 3 for 5 deal!
 
Well I hope you all made it here til the end .
I am sorry if my wave of pics and Mani's was a bit much.
But I want you all to see these Beauties in action.
Again my pics are from a phone camera.
So you can image how much brighter and bolder they are in real life.
 
Thank You for surfing my wave. I hope you enjoyed your visit at My Beach.
And return soon to see more Mani's and Amazing products.
