Day eight of the Untried Polish Challenge brings us to the Newest untried polish. Does getting a polish in the mail then waiting half a day to apply it count? I totally think so. Today, I have Lush Lacquer's Neon Lights. I've been eyeballing this polish for ever. And I mean forever. I can't remember which blog I initally saw it on, but it's been sitting in my favorites on Etsy for quite sometime. I finally pulled the trigger and I am ever so happy that I did.
Neon Lights is a creamy white base that only takes two coats to reach opacity. It is filled with neon pink, neon yellow, neon green, neon orange, and big neon pink hexes. This polish is a pre-made jelly sandwich heaven neon bomb! I love love love this and I'm so glad that I finally bought it. This polish is the perfect compliment to summer. I can't wait to rock it poolside.
Which neon color in this polish is your favorite?
Enjoy & until next time, Amy Lee

Today I have a fun simple mani for you. This is one of those hurry up and get it done, you have places to be manis.
I started off with 2 coats of Essie Nice is Nice. I love this soft dusky purple. Its such a sweet simple color, very unassuming. It goes on smoothly, takes two coats to reach opaqueness and wears great.
Next, I topped it off with Hard Candy's Black Tie Optional. This glitter topper is unlike anything that I own and it is AH-MAZE-BALLS. I know it isn't for everyone, but I love the graffiti look it gives to a manicure. Finally, I decided to try my Matte Top Coat for the first time.
I love love love the way this manicure looks mattified. Why did I wait so long to use this matte top coat? I have the one from Revlon and for $4 it is totally worth it! Such a great purchase.
Have you matted manis? What did you think?
Enjoy & until tomorrow, Amy Lee
