BB Couture, Midnight Malibu

I saved my fav for last! This is the coolest polish in my haul. This is a blue jelly base with tons of green and blue glitter. The blue base has what looks like pink shimmer in it too! I just love this polish! I tried so hard to capture it on camera but I just couldn't!


Before I go just wanted to say that all of these polishes are amazing! They applied very well, dried quickly and are just all over awesome. My only complaint is that the wand is a little longer than I prefer. For someone with longer nails this would be great for you, as the brush tends to collect more polish than I need. I'm working thru it lol! This is a great big 3 free brand, I'd say the quality is comparable to my Barielle's! So If your on the fence about this brand I'd say give them a try you like it!






















BB Couture, Balboa Beach Bunny

I love this one two! This is a lot like Dragon's Breath, except that this has a true purple base to it. The glitter in this appears to be silver, red, pink, blue, and green. Also my bottle appears to have a little bar glitter in it to, but not very much and none of it transferred to the nails ...weird! But this is still an amazing polish!



BB Couture, Dragon's Breath

I love this polish! Knew I would too! This is purple jelly with a red base and lots of glitter, in different colors! Just love it!!!! For the glitter it looks like we have red, pink, silver and blue. I wish we could get more versions of these!




BB Couture, Green Goblin

Oh I love this! Highly pigmented, dark green! This is so lovely! Might be my fav cream green! It's perfect in two coats and very awesome!








BB Couture, Poison Ivy

This was the first color from BB Couture I ever saw swatched and just had to have it! This is two coats and appears a little lighter in the pics than in person. I love this green! I don't have a dupe for this in my collection either.








BB Couture, Iced Olive

I was a little worried when I ordered Iced Olive because I have a lot of greens with gold in them and didn't want another dup. But this isn't a dup to any of the ones I own! This is a darker green, and the shimmer in this isn't just gold there is green and orange/copper shimmer in there too, not as much as the gold, but you can see it. This is so pretty in the sunshine! I tried so hard to capture this on camera but this is the closest I could get (sorry).



BB Couture, Fairy Blood

I have been dying to try this one for months now. And I'm really glad I got it! This is a lot like some of the other red jelly based glitters I already own. But they're not Big 3 Free, so I'm super happy I got this anyways. And I have to say my application on this was a bit sloppy and uneven. But the polish is perfect and smooth! I just haven't mastered the skill of painting my nails outside, in my lap, while I watch the kids play in the pool! But as I do most of my swatching this way now. I'm sure I will master it!



BB Couture, Hot Salsa

I wanted to try a polish that I hadn't seen yet and just loved the idea of a red. So this is what I picked up, My application was terrible on this one, not that it was the polishes fault I just didn't do a good job. And my pics aren't very good either lol! But here we have a very pretty red shimmer that is way cooler in person the my pics make it look. The micro shimmer in this is very fine and really makes this reflect light soooo well. I love a good red! And this is definitely one of them!







BB Couture, Obssesion

This is so pretty! I was a little worried when I bought this, because I couldn't tell what color I was really getting (I didn't want to get a dup) But this is another wow me polish! I love it! This is a vampy plum color, reminds me a my favorite Porto. The pictures just don't do this justice. There is a beautiful shimmer to this polish and it glows! Trust me this really does glow in person! This is 2 coats.







BB Couture, Dark Knight

Oh I loooooove this polish! The pics only give you an idea of the amazing bling this polish really has! This is 2 coats, and is a black base with tons of gold shimmer in it. Of coarse the gold and black combination always goes olive put this has so much shimmer in it that it really reflects both colors (and at the same time!). This is a lot like Blind Love, only this has a black base. I can't tell you how pretty this is in person!




BB Couture, Opposites Attract

Here we have a very fun and original polish. This is a cream grey with light silver glitter, and black particles? If that makes sense? I say particles because they're like little pieces of color rather than actual glitter or shimmer. You might have to enlarge to see it very well. This for me is a super great polish to own. I just love it! This is 2 coats.


I was hoping to get all of these posted tonight, but I'm just to tired to do it! So here are my first 5 of 15! Also I should mention that my pics today weren't as great as I would have hoped but I did my best. I hope to find some time in the morning to get the rest of these posted. Hope everyone had a great Monday!











BB Couture, Fate

Fate is a very pretty gold, much more sparkly in the sunshine than my pictures show. This is a cool gold, indoors it had a much more polished look an outdoors it really sparkled! Of coarse I love this.....It's gold! This is 2 coats.




This is indoors with flash.


BB Couture, Blind Love

I can't tell you how much I love this polish! It's amazing, much cooler in person! This is 2 coats. Okay so.... this is one of the coolest polishes ever! This is silver with a little gold and a little green. Tons of sparkle! Applied like a dream! I highly recommended this to the silver and or bling lover!

BB Couture, Til Death Do We Part

Here we have a lovely silver chrome. If you know me, you know I'm a sucker for silvers, chromes, golds ....pretty much all the metals. So you know I had to get those in my haul! So this is 2 coats perfect application (of coarse!) And you may be asking yourself what makes this one special and honestly it's not much different from the other silver chromes I have, Except that this is Big 3 free. Which makes this pretty cool in my book. Oh and sorry for all the little dings, after I painted my nails I thought it would be a great idea to do all kinds of stuff with my hands lol!

BB Couture, Hollywood Junk



Here we have Hollywood Junk, a great bar glitter polish. Here I have layered (2 coats) over Til Death Do We Part. This is a beautiful polish, the base is slightly tinted with just a hint of red. This is packed with silver glitter and bar glitter that is silver but catches the light and reflects a true rainbow! You can see this effect in this first pic and really shows a lot in person. This is a great summer polish and really dresses up a polish when layered.






Here I have layered this over my last mani (Chic 314) This was so much fun together! Oh this is 1 coat of H
