First up is Totally Tubular! This blue-y, teal based polish is filled with fuchsia and blue glitters in various shapes and sizes. These swatches are three coats of polish plus topcoat.

This is such a fun polish! I love how bright the base is and I think the color combination is very fitting of its name. I forgot how much I like this polish and I couldn't stop staring at my nails while I was wearing this haha!

Next up is Laugh Myself Lily!

Laugh Myself Lily is described as a "muted jade crelly" that is filled with pastel colored hex glitters and a little holographic sparkle. I'm showing you guys three coats of polish plus a layer of topcoat.

I don't know what it is about this polish, but I'm in love with it! Whenever I look at it in the bottle, I'm just kind of like meh but once I put it on I can't stop looking at my nails. The colors are so pretty and I like the subtle holo sparkle. The formula of this is a little more jelly like, so you have to remember to wrap the ends of your nails but it's really not that big of a deal.

Next up is some nail art!

I've just been winging most of my nail art lately but I thought some wavy lines might be "totally" awesome for this fun polish! (;

These nails started with three coats of Totally Tubular and a layer of Glossy Glam. Then using a striping brush and my acrylic paint, I randomly painted on the wavy lines. Everything was sealed with another layer of Glossy Glam.

These nails started with three coats of Laugh Myself Lily and a layer of Glossy Glam. Then using my detail brush and acrylic paint, I freehanded on the design. Everything was sealed in with another layer of Glossy Glam.
