Greetings, dear readers! I hope this post finds you well! It has been a stressful couple of weeks as I've been dealing with some issues, and while I wish I could say it's all been taken care of, sadly I'm still not in the greatest of head spaces at the moment. I'm pretty desperate for some sense of normalcy at the moment, so I'm going to continue to push through with blogging in the hopes that I'll feel more and more like myself in the coming weeks. I also haven't forgotten that I've promised a giveaway, so I'll have that posted here soon, likely after I return from a family vacation. Until then, how about a pretty polish to enjoy!
LynB Designs has been releasing polishes of the month, and this year's inspiration are the birthstones for each of the months. With April starting up here in just a few more days, LynB Designs will be offering her diamond-inspired shade, named Forever, for those of you that celebrate your birthdays next month or if you just want to have diamonds on your nails.
Forever is a sheer white-based nail polish loaded up with linear holographic particles and a rainbow of iridescent flakes. A diamond may mean forever, but I clearly had commitment issues with deciding how to wear and showcase this polish for today's blog post! Ha! In the end, I opted to show it with three coats on my ring and pinky fingers and layered on the other two. My base colour is I Just Can't Cope-Acabana by OPI on my middle finger and OPI's Alpine Snow was my selected base for my index finger. I figure diamonds are most often seen in jewelry in either the white or yellow varieties so I ran with it.
Forever is definitely on the sheer side, and I still had visible nail line after three coats on the nails where I opted to wear it solo. You can likely build it up to opacity, but it will take several coats. Instead, you can layer it over your preferred nude to cover any visible nail line or just embrace your line. Alternately, you can layer it over any other colour of your choosing and add a coat of Forever to add a beautiful sparkle.
The formula of Forever is phenomenal! Not too thick or thin, it applies so easily to the nails for a smooth a flawless finish. I also added a layer of top coat for these photos.
Forever will be launching on the LynBDesigns website this Friday, March 30th at 12 noon EST. This polish will retail for $10 per bottle.
Will you be picking up Forever and adding some "diamonds" to your nails? Would you prefer to wear it on its own and have a little visible nail line, or would you rather layer it over a base shade? I'd love to hear what you think!
Until next time, dear readers, have a wonderful day!
XO!

I dig this on it's own! The neutral with sparkle speaks to me. :) I bet this looks amazing over a dark shade!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful but I don't like my nail line to show through. I'd put it over a nude though.

ReplyDeleteI love Forever. I would wear that color as an eyeshadow shade on the lid of my eyes. It's so pretty.
ReplyDeleteI like it on its own and on top! Ooo and Phyrra is so right!
ReplyDeleteLove it over the white!!
ReplyDeleteThat sheer frosted holo is so gorgeous! I'd wear it on its own just like that.
ReplyDeleteI really like it as a topper. The combos are endless!
ReplyDeleteThat color would never be opaque on my nails, but I LOVE it over yellow!
ReplyDeleteThat's pretty but I definitely prefer it as a topper.
ReplyDeleteI like this one on it's own but wow it looks gorgeous layered over the yellow.
ReplyDeleteI wish I could pull off yellow on my skintone. This mani is perfect for Spring and Summer. I hope you enjoy your vacation.
ReplyDeleteI've been searching for a yellow holo, but damn yellow iridescent! I need to get this now!
ReplyDeleteGorgeous! I love how it looks over nude nails. My nails are a tad stained so I think I would wear it over a nude color instead of my natural nail!
ReplyDeletethat is amazing. Especially for Spring.
ReplyDeleteI love the sparkle!!! I think I would go the same route, no undies and just let the natural skin tone and lines shine through.
