So here are some skittles from my collection for my green girls (or guys).  There are more colors on sale, so go to overallbeauty.com and check them out.  I love BB Couture nail polishes.  Their formula is fantastic, and they have some of the coolest and most unique shades I've seen.  The only thing I love more, is when BB Couture is on sale.

BB Couture - Two Gorgeous Greens - Bonnie and Redwood Forest

Bonnie and Redwood Forest

Bottle shots.  
Similar base colors but variations in glitter.

Beautiful Bonnie! 

Isn't this gorgeous?  There is so much light coming from within the polish.  Bonnie is an emerald green jelly with mini glowing jade green glitter.  This polish is one of those rare colors that feels lit from within. Bonnie is from the Infamous Lovers - The Ladies collection.

Bonnie and Clyde, the movie, is just a stunning.  Faye Dunaway is just perfection in that movie.  Her hair, the costumes, her cheekbones are all perfect.   Not that this polish is really reminescent of any of that, but I have the same feeling of enthusiasm about it.  The hue, the glitter, the glow against my skin... everything about it is just breathtaking.

Bonnie with brighter artificial light.  Is it driving you jelly?!


Bottle shot of Bonnie.


Redwood Forest from Vampy Varnish collection

Redwood Forest is from the Vampy Varnish collection (A collection where I seriously cherish each and every polish).  If you are looking for more of a shade that's a jelly with a twist, then this is for you.  Redwood Forest is thinner in formula. 

 
 Redwood Forest

Redwood Forest bottle shot.  Notice how fine the glitter is.

Both of these colors are a deep hunter green jelly base.  You may say that they are too close to own both, but I'm greedy and like having both. 

The glitter in Bonnie is larger than Redwood Forest but I would still consider it to be micro in size.  It jumps out from the base color more and gives the polish more depth.  This applied better for me. It feels like Bonnie is the 2.0 of Redwood Forest.

Bonnie and Redwood Forest are available at OverallBeauty.com

BB Couture Eve from Infamous Lovers The Ladies Collection


Eve is a pewter and military green with emerald, kelly and gold glitters. I'm never that great at describing colors, but there is something about Eve (ever see that movie?). From the bottle, I knew that it was going to be a favorite from my order. I love to wear army green shades in my clothing, and it only seems natural that I am so drawn to this color.

Kim at Overall Beauty is such a pleasure to deal with. As a business owner, she has really taken steps to get in touch with her consumers and listen to them. I love ordering from her because you actually feel like a human in putting care into your package and really, really hoping that you are pleased.

Look at how excited we are about our order!! :)
Marlowe says "Which one first?"


Doesn't this say fall?

There is almost a jelliness to this.

You can see emerald, kelly, gold and pewter.


Eve and the entire collection of Infamous Lovers are available at Overall Beauty. I will be posting more from my haul.

Thanks for looking!
