Rainbow Honey - Robot Collection

I tend not to talk about useful things when I blog about polish. I suck at describing colours. These swatches are sort of crap. I need to redo them. They look good on the tiny camera screen *squints*

These are all 1 coat of polish. The would likely look far better with more than 1 coat, but I was just so pleased to have 1 coaters. They are careful 1 coaters! I approve.

These came packaged so well.

I really like these little bottles. Rainbow Honey has always has great packaging, and this is just more of the same.

Dusty Bot

Bitty Love Bot

Femme Bot

Lucky Bot

Skyward Bot

Yoshimi 1 coat

Yoshimi 2 coats

OPI The Lights of the Emerald City over 2 coats Yoshimi over Lucky Bot

The set of minis is $25 and the full size set is $50. If you spend $50 + you get free shipping, though I cannot recall if that is worldwide. Certainly it should say on their site.

I plan to reswatch these when the sun comes back out again.

Rainbow Honey - Sweet Talk Collection - XOXO and Sweet Talk

I was super pleased to receive these from Rainbow Honey. I got the email that they were sending bloggers 2 of the 3 polishes in the collection and including a $5 dollar off promo code to purchase the 3rd (or anything else they sell for that matter) and I was so hoping these were the 2 I got. The promo code is also for you guys to use!

*** PROMO CODE = SWEETTALK$5 (promo code expires 2/28/2013)***

The Collection will be officially released on 1/25 at 12:01 AM EST at rainbowhoney.com

Rainbow Honey is also having a giveaway on their facebook page for these special edition polishes:

Dearly Beloved or My Love (one or the other) will also be available as a gift with purchase of $50 or more once the Sweet Talk Collection goes live on January 25.

So here are the lovelies that I received:

Sweet Talk - 3 coats with 1 coat of top coat that was not thick enough *kicks bottle* I should have used Glitter Food.

I then added 1 coat of XOXO

XOXO - Funky french with OPI Kiss me on my Tulips and 2 coats of XOXO no topcoat

Check out the shimmer! I frigging adore this polish.

I feel the need to reswatch Sweet Talk in 1 coat over a white base. I feel that the 3 coats needed for opacity sort of muted the colours that I wanted to pop. Also, next time I will use a thicker topcoat.

Rainbow Honey - The Sweet Talk Collection Preview

I was very happy to find this in my mailbox this afternoon!

Just in time for Valentine's Day, Rainbow Honey presents the Sweet Talk Collection: Be Mine: A lovely kiss of pink on your nails with a dusting of microshimmer and gold flecks Sweet Talk: A decadently sweet collection of pastel glitters in a white jelly with hidden shimmer XOXO: A ravishing blend of glitters and flakes in a clear base for easy use over any manicure For this trio, Dee - Rainbow Honey's Chief Designer - chose to create two colors that were wearable on their own - Be Mine and Sweet Talk - yet still fun and shimmery. In addition to these two, XOXO adds that extra dimension and spark when you want it - perfect for an accent nail or as a full manicure for extra sparkle! With names inspired by the sweet nothings of conversation hearts and colors reminiscent of the candies and cards we exchanged as children, the Sweet Talk Collection is sure to put a smile on the face of that special someone in your life - or maybe your own! 

The Collection will be officially released on 1/25 at 12:01 AM EST at rainbowhoney.com and participating Retail Partners around the world.

Rainbow Honey - Oni

Oni is so rich and pretty.  It just reeks of fall to me.

2 coats no topcoat.

I decided to try some layering combinations.  From left to right: NYX Gilded Glitter, Lippmann Boom Boom Pow, ChG Cleopatra and OPI GoldenEye.  All are 1 coat with no topcoat.

Here are some random single finger shots that look kind of creepy to me.

Gilded Glitter.  This picture looks so gross to me near the cuticle :|

GoldenEye.  I could have gone a little less dense, I think the coat was too thick.
