Party Palace Blue with a La Playa and a Star

These three "babies" were from polishes I got from swaps from two wonderful ladies. Orly La playa is a gorgeous blue creme with a hint of purple whereas Confetti Party Palace Blue is a sheer blue iridescent glitter which are similar to Sally Hansen Strobe Light or Sinful Colors Hottie. Revlon Star is a glitter polish with silver hex-glitter in a clear base
For la Playa I used two coat till it was opaque and it looked quite boring on its own so I pulled out PPB and Revlon Star from my untried-stash.

Claire's Shy/Flirty

Hey there :)

 I recently got Flirty/Shy from another swap with the lovely Karen (if you'd like to see what she got me, I've added the pictures at the end of the post). Flirty/Shy is a blue and changes from a light to dark blue. I used two coats and it dried to a matte finish so I finished it up with a topcoat.
This is how it looks like most of the time:

And when it's warm (somehow the camera captured my visible nail line which wasn't visible in person)

And when my hands are cold:

And now, the goodies from Karen. Originaly it was two swaps but the first package got lost somewhere between the US and Austria (probably stuck somewhere in the Bermuda Triangle like our first swap package :P). Thank you so much again Karen :)
