A Swatch Here and a Swatch There..BeautyBarBaby Shadows Swatches Part One!

*Press Sample*

Hello lovelies,
   I am back today with a super quick post of some arm and an eye swatch of some lovely BeautyBarBaby shadows. I have been slacking on my posts due to the chaos that is wedding planning which makes me want to beat myself in the head with my keyboard. But, I am hoping to catch up in the next couple of weeks so stay tuned and let's get started cause these colors are to die for.
Yup , no lie these colors are FABULOUS. 




First off.. The Beast Unleashed, from the Fireworks collection,  is described as a blackened plum duo chrome eye shadow with bluem red and green shifts. This is a beautiful smoky plum with amazing shifts. I see more blue first off but when the light hits it just right you can catch the subtle green and red shift.




Next, we have Devil's Breath which is described as a semi shimmery hot red with lots of red sparkles. It is a nice and vibrant red which I would consider more of an orange based red (due to the vibrancy) over a blue based red. Lots of shimmer and lots of sparkle so it is a win, win situation for me.



Ice Breakers is from the new mattes at BeautyBarBaby. It is currently being restocked and it is a gorgeous matte light blue a close cousin of the light mint green.

Blue Velvet is one of my favorites out of the new Matte shadows. It is described as a bright matte vivid blue and it totally is! Just take a look! It is so gorgeous I am sure that Elvis would approve.

Miss Daisy is another one of my favorite shadows. It is one of my constant go to highlight colors. It is described as a shimmery soft gold with hints of pink sparkles and violet interference undertones. It is soft creamy light gold with just a hint of sparkle when the sun catches it just right.

Finally, last but not least, is T-1000 which is named after the liquid metal terminator in T2. It is described as a bold metallic silvery grey shade. But honestly, look at this color! It is beautiful glorious liquid silver.

Well, I hope that you enjoyed this swatch-fest and there will be more coming the next couple of weeks as well as looks and hopefully a review or two so fingers crossed. If you would like to pick up any of these lovely colors are you can do at BeautyBarBaby on Etsy. You can follow her on her Facebook, Instagram, and join the Facebook Fan Group to get all the latest sneak peeks. So until next time lovelies!

Mani Monday! Not one but two polishes from Ruby White Tips!

*Purchased*
Hello lovelies!
  I am back again from a crazy weekend filled with visiting out of town friends, meeting my new godson, dress hunting and outlet shopping. Needless to say I am dead on my feet but on a brighter note my nails look simply fabulous! This weekend I couldn't decide on what nail polish to wear so I actually wore two different ones from Ruby White Tips. She has a Mystery Box special that is going on her Etsy site right now and I picked up one with her special KP lotion (which another review is coming for that one) and I was blown away by the colors I received. I was super happy since I was wanting to try both of these polishes and the mystery polish extra which is a one of a kind and is simply gorgeous but I won't post it since it wouldn't be fair to show a pretty that you can't order.
  The first one I quickly painted on my nails which made my three year old daughter ohhh and ahhh and tell me that my nails were "boo-tifull" was Don't Open Dead Inside. While she doesn't have the appreciation of the Walking Dead like we do, I do have to say that she does have a good appreciation of an amazing nail polish. This gorgeous color is a lovely metallic like purple with a blue sheen depending on the light.
Check out this metallic purple!

While I am still working on my photography skills you can catch the blue hint in this image.

The next polish I need to grace my nails with was Misfit Toys. Misfit Toys is what I would call a metallic chameleon polish. It is a multi shifter which makes my little gothic heart flutter with delight since it is always something different depending on the light and angle. While there was no way that I could capture all the shifts I attempted to give this polish some sort of justice with the images below.

I love how metallic looking both of theses polishes are.

I managed to capture some of the amazing shifts of this polish in this image. 

Needless to say I am super impressed again with these two polishes that I received from Ruby White Tips. I was also super thrilled to learn that these two polishes are not only 5 free but also vegan which is a really awesome choice for vegans looking for amazing nail polish. I look forward to purchasing from her again. If you would like to pick up a Mystery Box you can do so her Etsy Shop (you can also pick up her lotion which is AMAZING for dry skin but I am getting ahead of my review on it but trust me it is awesome) and you can follow her here on Facebook and join the RubyWhiteTips Fangroup as well. I hope that you enjoyed this Mani Monday and until next time lovelies!
