LA Colors Color Craze nail Polish Swatches (Wave Length and Perfect Sunset)


 I used Sally Hansen Double Duty as my base and top coat, 1 coat each, I applied 2 coats of each polish. These are not new polishes but they are bright  for the summer so I wanted to post them. Even with two coats they are still sheer coverage to ware you can still see my white finger nail tips threw the polish. Not really bad but it still shows threw.

They all 3 dry fast , I like to allow each coat  to fully dry before applying the next coat. If you don't it does take 3 times longer for your polish to completely dry. Non of these polish have a strong smell so if you don't like strong nail polish smells your good with these. very light smell. Another tip is if you polish your nails in a cool environment they will adhere and dry faster.

The best to describe these colors are both have a micro shimmer just a bit to ware the colors don't look flat or matt. The Wave Length polish is a bright yellow color with a gold undertone to it so it appears like the gold undertone really tones down the yellow a little but still keeps that bright color for summer.

Now on to the orange color Perfect Sunset is a pumpkin shade with that dab of micro shimmer to it.

Sally Hansen Double Duty reminds me of a dupe of Seche

I recommend if you want more full coverage of color to use after applying your clear base coat,apply a base color that will coordinate;with these,for example,black,white,yellow,orange,or red. Get a little creative and add dark purple then gold,or brown or bronze then either orange or gold La Colors. Use your imagine nation. It's been awhile since wearing these shades so I will have to post back on wearing time. I have found if your nails are properly prepared before applying your polishes they will last longer than a few days.

Bliss High Intensity Hand Cream Review

My self I love a light weight lotion cream ,non greasy but works just like the heavier creams and lotions do. I found it with this. Not only does it work but it works almost on contact. What I mean by that. I am a diabetic and have trouble with out of the no ware I get instant saver dry skin that starts cracking. The worst is for my skin  to crack on my fingers ware you move them ,like a paper cut but worse.

I have tried allot of hand lotions, spa creams ect and allot of them did work but took over days and some time weeks, then I would have to use them ALL the time to keep this issue at bay. With Bliss I don't when I get these problem cracking dry skin on saver to just a little dry I add a lil (A little goes along ways) to the area giving me the problems and with in 3-5 minuets it is 100 percent a forgotten issue tile the next time if I don't hear and there use it. If I do use it every 4-6 days I don't have any up coming problems it keeps it under control.


The good thing is as soon as I get the paper cut feeling and apply a little dab of this it stops that feeling of the hurt I get from the cracked skin skin right on contact and before I know it I'm on my way doing what ever for the day. Apply and Forget. I mean with in seconds but it soaks into your skin completely with in 3-5 minuets depending on the room temp and conditions around you. I applied this in hot humid day out side and  by the 5 minuets it was totally soak in, when I apply this in a 72 degree room it less than 3 minuets soaks in.

This is what the company says about this product

----------------------------------------------------------------------

• supreme softening and surface smoothing
• silky but grease-free
• smooths rough cuticles

"Working minor miracles on ragged cuticles, Bliss High Intensity Hand Cream got high-fives for being 'light, lovely, and lemony'." 


--------------------------------------------------------------------------


It's all true , it smells like someone just squeezed fresh lemons in the room but not too strong and the smell fades fairly fast so I f your someone who don't like fragrance it isn't a irritating smell its light and refreshing.





Hear you can see it is light weight but not runny watery like those cheap no good ones are.


 This is a picture of the tube I am using right now



Another picture.

Bliss World Web Site

You can find this in places like Ulta, Sephora or other places like that. Online is for sure a place to find it  LOL

Hope this help on any dry skin issues for people or if you know someone who is having these issues you can recommend this product.

However I did find this to be a favorite and work for all ages , all skin types and issues to no skin issues. It is a good hand cream for the entire family

Final thought it goes on silky smooth ,light weight,non greasy and feels like you have nothing on with in your first 30 seconds

Below eye and check area Medium deep
Nose Medium 
Forehead light to Medium 

Chin has the lightest shade

Chin shade Light


As you can see coverage is Zero
No matter what shade you use.


Ok now let me give you my first impression, I know what BB Cream's are in Asia and this is not what I come to know BB Creams to be so with that being said I wondered what is this really and is it worth anything.

So far the only thing I felt it could be worth is  keeping oily at bay and  to use for a primer.

It did go on very smooth and easily blended out ,didn't feel oily or anything like that it littler y felt like nothing was on my skin and looked same way. I didn't get any kind of great glowing radiance with it, it didn't help to hide fine lines ,pores large and small. It diffidently isn't a stand alone product so now here I go to really start trying to figure it out and see what it can do. This week I will be trying it out in other ways even trying more layers of it on to see if that may help but I know I had enough product on to start with  so now I'm just wondering more about it. I will also be doing some research on the ingredients and breaking it down to make more since of it so I can better explain it to you all.


Stay tune for a full review of what I can learn more about on this product . As fast as I can get my hands on all the other BB Creams being sold in US i will get them and do reviews and swatches as well.




CoveGirl 425 Vintage Wine Lip Swatch

This is a great long wearing lipstick but the color is gray for every skin tone. I have wore this all year round and it worked perfect for cold to hot days.

Its not creamy or waxy. Its is so close to the Cover Girl Lip Blast, I mean very close.

Another great thing about this lip stick its on just bar skin and lips, our with full makeup, base, primers you never get any bleeding or feathering.

It is like this was out Atty a time they were still mixing formulas to perfect it for the Lip Blast.

Depending on room temp the lip stick will set with in on average 3 to five min. I recommend when applying any makeup this is a good tip for every one to make sure your face is been exfoliated, cleansed, and toned, and make sure your fave is had time to dry and stay dry. Not dry your face and still have it a little sweaty. If you allow your face to completly then stay applying makeup and lip stick ,then let everything set for at least 3 to 5 min with out making any faces you will see how well the makeup work and last.

Any request please post our email.

I also did a video on my YouTube on this swatch.
