Good morning again my dear readers!  I hope your hump day goes by quickly so you are that much closer to the weekend!  Woot!  Yes I am still on vacation but I had lots of posts prepared and ready to go so during "down time" - wish is essentially us lazing around our room until we get ready to do the next thing, I've been getting these set up to share with you.  Today I have another post featuring a brand that was at Cocktails & Colors!  Cupcake Polish has a fantastic new collection called Las Vegas Showgirls.  It's 5 uber sparkly holos full of silver flakies!  Va va voom!  I have 3 of them to share with you today and I am mega drooly over them!  In the direct sunlight they are super holotastic, in the shade you can really see the silver flakies.  The Las Vegas Showgirl collection will be available on 8/1 at 11am CST.  They will be $13 each.  Just like all Cupcake launches, you can pick up the entire collection for a discounted price of $60 for the first 24 hours.  I also have a code for you to use!  10% off your entire order using COSMOPROF2015, expires 9/1/15.  I am ready to look at polish, you?!  Then lesgo!

As I mentioned I had 3 of the 5 piece collection to show you.  Up first is this amazing hot pink called Folies Bergere.  You can really see the gorgeous holo and the silver flakies!  You know I love me some Cupcakes and these were totally on point!  Formula and application were both can-can leg-kicking fantastic.  Very opaque and full coverage.  Man I love how easy Sara's polishes are to use - they practically apply themselves!  I used 2 coats of Folies Bergere and finished with a layer of topcoat.

The next one I have is Bluebell Girls.  Let me first apologize because I could not for the life of me get this color right.  Even a little color editing still couldn't nail it down.  The IRL (in real life) shade is a lighter neon aqua shade - it's showing a darker blue in my pictures.  But despite my failure at catching the shade, I think you can still tell how gorgeous this polish is!  Another linear holo with silver flakies.  Formula and application were purrrrrrrfect (that's exactly what my notes say).  I used 2 coats of Bluebell Girls for full coverage and 1 layer of topcoat.

I love pink and aqua as much as the next girl, BUT this is the one that had me all twitterpated.  My heart really does belong to the darker shades - they just make me feel super sexy and Lido de Paris is SEXAY!  It's a steely grey - so dark it's darn near black.  It's full of those fabulous silver flakies.  I really don't know what else to say about this one.  If I were to suggest 1 for you to buy this is is.  Lido de Paris is all that and a bag of chips AND a milkshake.  I used 2 coats of Lido de Paris for full coverage and 1 layer of topcoat.
