ABC Challenge: I is for Iocaine Powder and Irish Green



Howdy, everyone!  It's Wednesday and that means it's time for another ABC Challenge!  Today's letter is "I".  In my last post, I mentioned I might be using a new polish I got from LynBDesigns, and, not being one to go back on my word, I have! 


I've done another green mani...I didn't realize I did that many of them, but I guess I do lol  Anyway, here I've started with 3 coats of Sinful Colors Irish Green.  I passed IG over for a good long while because I didn't realize that it was a jelly!  Sinful Colors should really change their labeling to indicate what type of polish is in the bottle.  IG is a super bright, super squishy green jelly and it's just perfect for St. Paddy's Day just around the corner!  


On top of IG, I've added a coat of Iocaine Powder from LynBDesigns.  As I'm sure most of you know (and if you don't, you should really watch this movie!), Iocaine Powder comes from the movie The Princess Bride.  It's one of my all-time favorites and when I saw LynBDesigns had a collection inspired by the movie, I knew I had to have it!  IP is a holographic glitter topper bursting with micro-glitters and itty bitty flakies...some super sparkle power here!  As with the other LynB's I've tried, IC had a great formula.  I've used only one coat here on top of the green and you can see how great the sparkle is.



I hope you'll take a few minutes to check out the other ladies doing the ABC Challenge.  You can find them via the thumbnails below.  As always, thanks so much for reading!!

  3. Just picked up a bottle of Irish Green last week. And you're right about the labeling - it's not only Sinful where you can't tell what kind of polish is in the bottle. Love how bright, and looks great with your skin tone.

    1. I definitely would have bought it last year if I'd known it was a jelly. I can't resist a jelly, especially as Sinful Colors is such a steal! Thanks!

  15. That is a bright green!! I have no idea how to identify a jelly, I'm pretty sure I have none, or if I do, I don't know!!! So pretty!
