My Holiday Manicure – Deborah Lippmann Happy Birthday over Butter London British Racing Green

My Christmas Eve and Christmas Day manicure was one coat Deborah Lippmann Happy Birthday over two coats of Butter London British Racing Green. How about you? These pictures are kinda crap but it was a fun look. Kind of like multi coloured lights on the Christmas tree.

Deborah Lippmann Collection Fall 2011 Brick House – Swatches & Review

Another winner from Deborah Lippmann. I am really impressed with these polishes. Brick house is the perfect deep copper. It applied perfectly in two coats. It has a shimmery, almost metallic finish but not over the top. It is described as a shimmering rust. I have always LOVED the shade rust. Even going back to high school I always loved it in my clothes, makeup, everything. I still remember the summer before grade 9 going shopping and buying all my back to school clothes (with my own hard earned money) and finding this fabulous rust coloured knit cardigan with tarnished brass coloured chunky beads of different shapes sewn onto it. OK hard to describe but I loved it and when I got tired of the sweater I cut the beads off and made a kick ass necklace! You may even say my hair is inspired by always trying to find that perfect shade of “rust”. I can see this being a go to shade for me this fall.

I purchased this at Holt Renfrew.

Deborah Lippmann Across The Universe – Swatches and Review

I hope you’re not tiring of my Deborah Lippmann posts because I just can’t get enough of the Deborah Lippmann Collection polishes!
Deborah Lippmann Across the Universe is a stunning deep blue jelly with blue glitter and blue and green hex glitter. The depth and dimension of this shade is beyond words. I received compliments from no less than 4 people while I was wearing this over the weekend. To give you an idea of wear, these photos were taken on day 3. This is 4 coats which is what is required for it to look it’s best. I have gotten away with 3 coats in the past when in a rush but 4 is really the magic number.

I purchased this and the majority of my Lippmann’s from Made You Blush (not affiliated).
