Seche Nail Polish from Live Love Polish - Swatches & Review

*Press Sample

Have you heard of Live Love Polish? They are a new to me online shop that I have been seeing popping up everywhere lately. They provide cruelty-free brands from all over the world, including China Glaze, Model's Own and LVX.

Today though, I am showcasing a shade from another brand that they carry, Seche! I know most of you have heard of, and probably tried Seche Vite Topcoat, but did you know that they also have nail polish colors? I have 5 shades from Seche and I love them all so I was excited to find out that Live Love Polish was featuring Seche this month. I decided to try out a lovely baby pink polish, Rose II.

This is three thin coats of Rose II topped with Seche Vite. I love how pretty this shade is and it applied well. Adding the Seche Vite topcoat helped my mani to dry shiny and quickly.

Seche Nail Polish comes in lots of colors and you can them at Live Love Polish.

The Nail Challenge Collaborative Presents - Tea Party - Look 4

I'm back today with my 4th and final August Tea Party look for the Nail Challenge Collaborative, and I am totally in love with this look!

Polishes Used:
-Morgan Taylor - Ahead of the Game
-Morgan Taylor - New Kicks on the Block
-Morgan Taylor - Funny Business
-Morgan Taylor - Mint Chocolate Chip
-Precision Nail Lacquer - Grape Devine
-Seche - Versatile
-Rica - Whiteout
-Hard Candy - Matte-ly in Love

I love this look! I feel like I finished strong this month. The color seem is cheery and the white dots on the yellow feels very country chic for a tea party. The purple flowers sort of remind me of lilac flowers that may be out at a tea party.

Check out how the other ladies are wrapping up their Tea Parties below!

Twinsie Tuesday: Interlocking Design

As you know, yesterday my husband had his birthday and we went to the amusement park; it was high 60's low 70's for the temp and cloudy; the park wasn't too crowded and hardly had to wait in any lines, with the exception of one 10 minute shower, it was great!

So onto the look; this week's theme is Interlocking Design. I took a little creative freedom with this one, I'm sure if it's technically "interlocking" but it's close enough! It was inspired by @lilmissnails_ on Instagram, who was inspired by @nailedthepolish.

Polished Used:
-Seche - Keep It You
-Seche - Conquer The World
-Hard Candy - Matte-ly In Love

I love how simple this look was to create, and the colors sort of remind of watermelons or something. I think it may sort of qualify for interlocking right? The only thing that I didn't like was that I ended up putting a matte topcoat on it; also I waited what felt like 20 minutes and it still smudged up when I applied it.

I can't wait to see what the other ladies have come up with!

Twinsie Tuesday: One Stroke Flowers

Today's Twinsie Tuesday theme is One Stroke Flowers. I love the artistic look of this technique but also knew I would probably have some issues creating it myself.

Well, I know my limits well. haha. My look turned out OK for my first attempt but not as good as I would like. I'm sure if I keep practicing this a bit they will improve. I was trying to decide which of these flowers I liked the best and couldn't pick; they are all sort of meh to me.

I used acrylic paints for the white and red/orange and used Seche Effortlessly Styled for the base.

Let's see if the other ladies had better luck than I did!

Seche Nail Color - Versatile & Happy, As Is

Today I have two lovely shades to share with you from the Seche Nail Color Clever & Confident Fall 2013 Collection. These are my first Seche color polishes and I am confident they won't be my last.

First up, Versatile:

This is an amazing green shade of polish! It was completely opaque in one coat (although I couldn't leave just one coat on, so I added a second). The application was great; not streaky at all and since this shade was so opaque, it will definitely be great for stamping! I topped it off with Glisten & Glow HK Girl topcoat.

Next up, Happy, As Is:

Happy, As Is is a great berry red shade. It was also mostly opaque in one coat, although I did feel it was better with two coats, just evened everything out. Even thought I used two coats, it is still opaque enough for nail art and stamping. I topped this off with Glisten & Glow HK Girl topcoat.

Do you own any polishes from the Clever & Confident Collection? Do you have a favorite shade from the two that I showed you? (I love both, I can't decide!)
