Lynnderella Common Sense

So I know there's a new Lynnderella collection out already (Early Halloween Resurrected), but not only have I not purchased it yet, I know that Sweet Somethings for a Summer Solstice is still available for purchase on eBay. So I figured I'd post swatches of it whenever I wear it in case anyone is still undecided on whether to get it or not :)

 Personally, I LOVE the collection. So today I'm going to show you Common Sense over BB Couture's Erotic Night. I did 2 coats of Erotic Night and 1 coat of Common Sense. But here's where it gets weird. This glitter is so dense that on my first finger it went on (my pinky), I over did it. You can see, even though I tried to spread it out, it just was too much that I glopped onto there! So my next nail (ring finger), came out ok and the middle finger, too. Then I thought, maybe just a bit more for my index finger and BAM! Too much again. So, my apologies for the uneven application. I would have taken it off and redone it, but then I thought this would be a good way to warn you guys about how densely packed this glitter is!

 Ok, enough talk, on to the pictures!

But now look at it in the shade!

So, what do you guys think? I think the copper and pink work really well together! More of this collection to come as I wear it. Thanks for stopping by and have a wonderful day :D

China Glaze swatches


China Glaze 5 Golden Rings. Five coats. While I liked how this looked, I would probably layer this the next time I wore it.


China Glaze In Awe of Amber. Four coats. The formula was a bit runny and thin. 


China Glaze Mummy May I. Three coats. 


China Glaze Sugar Plums. Two coats. I think my bottle evaporated a little so the formula was a little thick, but nothing a little thinner didn't fix. 


American Apparel Supernova over Sugar Plums. One coat. The glitter looks a bit curly in the bottle but is fine on the nail.

LeChat Dare 2 Wear swatches


Dare 2 Wear Glammed Up. Three coats. This is like a copper version of OPI Dazzled by Gold. I love this finish.


Sephora by OPI Don't Be Eggnog-ious over Glammed Up. One coat.


Dare 2 Wear Glitterati. Three coats. Why isn't this one a glitter at least?



Dare 2 Wear Smoking Diva. Three coats. I thought this would be the same finish as Glammed Up since they are from the same collection but I was disappointed. It looks dull in most lights.

Avon Sequin swatches


Avon Lucky Penny. Two coats. This one is so glowy! The formula on this one was weird. It is runny and thick at the same time. I added some thinner and it was perfect.


Color Club Platinum Record over Lucky Penny. One coat. The formula was really thick.


Avon Golden Vision. Two coats.


Avon Mystic. Three coats.


Avon Rave. Two coats.


Avon Starry Night. Two coats.



OPI Paris Couture For Sure Glitter Top Coat. One coat. This one looked better in person, the holo doesn't show up well in pictures.



OPI Servin' Up Sparkle over it all. Two coats.

Avon recently released 45 new shades. These are in the category of Sequins. Some are foils, some are shimmers, and one was a glitter. I've posted the foil ones.

This is a really long post so I am trying it behind a jump. I hope this works. Color morphing polishes ahead!
