Rockstar Pink

WARNING: This post is picture heavy!


Happy Monday everyone, now I know Monday and happy are hardly ever in the same sentence yet today we will make an exception. Why you make ask? Because I'll be reviewing Sally Hansen's Rockstar Pink. This polish has the potential to make anyone smile and glitter lovers jump with joy. Now i first saw a post on Instagram about this polish being a dupe for Butter London's Lovely Jubbly , after researching a bit and seeing comparison pictures I totally agree. They look extremely similar if not the same, so when I saw this at Target on one of my random trips I just had to get it! So if you don't have $14.00 to spend and would like to still own a polish this pretty the $3.99 alternative should please you just the same. Here are some photos and my thoughts on this polish.



 
 
 
This polish has very small red, blue, magenta and super fine gold glitter.
 
 
 
 
 
Out of focus so you can see the sparkle!
 
 
 
I have on 3 coats of Rockstar Pink and 2 coats of Gelous top coat.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Overall this glitter polish was very easy to apply and I found it didn't drag as much either. I love looking at it on my nails, any bit of light that hits it makes it sparkle.
 
So any thoughts? Is this a polish you will be getting?

Pumpkin, Salt and Peper and even a Gablin.

No this post wont be about food but it does contain a recipe pairing up some polishes with just the perfect glitter! I recently got 3 polishes from Polish Me Crazy (Cherry ) because we are nailmail buddies. It was my first package from her and an awesome one at that! So I decided to share with you the 3 polishes she sent me and give you my thoughts on them, maybe you will fall in love with one and stop by her shop.


This is I think my favorite one. Something about the black and white together that just captivates me. And such a cute name too.
 
 
 
Black and white hex, black bar glitter and fine white dots with the occasional white square. This is one coat only.  (I liked having at least one square in each nail!)
 
 
 
This glitter looks great with a gray background!

This polish couldn't have a more accurate name, it totally reminds me of a Pumpkin Spice Latte. Its a jelly base with black, gold, silver and orange hexs, add to that black bars and very tiny orange and silver glitter! 
 
 
 
 
 
 
You could add a base that compliments this color but I didn't need to. I like it just like that, this is 2 coats only and look at how opaque it is.
 
 
 
 
This is pure frosty goodness!
 
 
 
I'm not a blue person but this polish makes me want to wear more of it. It has black, white, blue and green hexs, also tiny green and silver squares and yes black bars.
 
 
 
 
 
These make a great pair! When I try more combinations I'll share more photos!
 
 
 
 
Thanks for reading and go check her out!
 
 


 
 
 
PS. I'm reviewing these because I want to, Cherry didn't ask me to do so. Also yes she is my friend but if I didn't think these were worth it, I wouldn't recommend them.
