ella + mila yacht club

Press Sample

A couple of weeks ago, ella + mila posted on this beautiful blue creme on their Instagram and I realized "Hey, I own that!" While at Cosmoprof North America this year, the owners (who are super sweet and amazing) told me to grab a color and this is the one that my eyes darted to. Here is yacht club, a gorgeous blue-grey from the Elite collection.


Top Shelf Lacquer Take Me Drunk, I'm Home

Nothing To Disclose

Reaching into my PolishCon Chicago 2016 box again and this time I pulled out Top Shelf Lacquer Take Me Drunk, I'm Home. This was literally a last minute "Omg, I need this" polish that I purchased as the event was closing and then it sat in my box. Typical Krystal. This polish is from the Fun Bar Quotes - Mega Shifts collection. The base is purple jelly and has shimmer shifts from aqua blue to purple to red.

I have another Jamberry lacquer today - this one is called Most Wanted and it's a melon creme. I really have enjoyed the wide brushes on these lacquers.

Great Lakes Lacquer Love at Loyola

Nothing To Disclose

PolishCon will be happening later next month and I'm having FOMO so today I grabbed Great Lakes Lacquer Love at Loyola from the Chicago 2016 PolishCon. This was a VIP bag exclusive that was a berry polish with purple shimmer.

China Glaze Sparkle On

Press Sample


When I first saw China Glaze Sparkle On, I was stoked because it's such a pretty red glitter! However, when I opened it up, I was pretty sad. For starters, the formula was thick like glue. I ended up putting TONS of thinner in it to try and make it easier to use. Also, while it is a red glitter in a red tinted base, it just didn't look like it was going to work well for me.
