Cover Girl Pyro Pink

Hump  day is here again. It comes so quickly but also feels like it takes forever to get here. The mysteries of time, I suppose. This week I have another polish from the Cover Girl Catching Fire. Pink Pyro is a dark pink foil with silver and purple flecks in it. This one was definitely more foil-like than the last polish in the collection I tried. It's a very pretty shade that would look good on a variety of skin tones. Formula was good and I used 3 thin coats below with no topcoat. You could totally get away with only 2 coats but I found that with 2, it looked sheer in the sun. In person though you probably would not be able to tell.

You can see a bit of the purple peeking out at this angle. 

I think it's pretty but it's not blowing me away. I think it might just seem a little boring compared to some of the other colors in the collection (at least to me). I like it though and can see myself busting it out when I am looking for an edgier pink. 

That's what I have for you today. Let me know what you think of this polish in the comments below. Thanks!

Cover Girl Black Heat

Hello! Last week I found a full display of the new Cover Girl Catching Fire Collection at my local CVS. They were also having a BOGO50 sale so you know I bought all 9 of the polishes.  This is my first time trying the new Cover Girl Glosstinis and I have to say that I like them. The bottles are tiny but the price point isn't bad, especially when there is a sale.

The first polish I tried out was Black Heat, a murky black with strong green undertones. The finish on this is a foil/glass fleck with tons of green and gold glitter. I found the pigmentation to be good and only needed 2 coats below, no top coat.

Oooh look at all those beautiful glittery bits.

I am a fan of foils and glass flecks so this polish was right up my alley. I like how the green and gold really came out in the sun and it had a lot of depth. If you like this finish or dark, olive-y shades then definitely give this one a try.

I hope to try out the other polishes in this collection soon. If they are all like this one, I think I am going to really like them. Is anyone else excited about the Catching Fire movie? To tell the truth it was my least favorite book in the series but the trailer looks good so I am sure I will see. Thanks for stopping in and have a great weekend!

Stashed (8): Cover Girl Catching Fire Collection

Hi, everyone! The only thing I have stashed this week is the new Cove Girl Hunger Games Catching Fire collection. I was lucky to run into an almost full display with the 9 polishes earlier this week at CVS. They were having a sale on Cover Girls as well so I was able to get all of these, after coupons, for about $20, Not bad. The bottles are really tiny. The covers are pretty great though if you like the foil/glass fleck finish. I have already tried a few of these and I really like them.

That's all I've stashed this week. I am trying to think of a fun mani for Halloween but haven't figured anything out yet. I love seeing all of the Halloween themed manis popping up though. It's getting me really excited about Halloween. Who doesn't love candy and costumes? Have a good weekend, everyone!
