Colors by Llarowe - Poem for polish Thursday - Nail art

Products sent for my honest review. 
Time for a, in my opinon, super cute nail art. I've decided to call it "Candy is dandy but Liquor is quicker, so let's have a Strawberry wine Frenzy!"

I have used four polishes from CbL's summer collection. I know that it can be tricky to know what to do with jellies and cremes so I thought i'd show you ow to wear these polishes in a different way. I will swatch them later on as well. But I think that will be later in the summer. 

I got this idea from Lemmingspolish on Instagram, if you don't follow that account already you totally should! Even though this mani didn't turn out as I wanted, it still looks pretty. 
I started off with a white base and applied thin coats of the different colours with a nail art brush. I wanted it to look like a pink and purple tie dye but I'm not sure if it does. 

The four colours I used are the following: Candy is dandy, Strawberry wine, Frenzy and Liquor is quicker. I also have two coats of Sweche vite to make the 
And since it's Thursday, here is todays poem. 

The wine of Love is music,
   And the feast of Love is song:
And when Love sits down to the banquet,
   Love sits long:

Sits long and ariseth drunken,
   But not with the feast and the wine;
He reeleth with his own heart,
   That great rich Vine.

Poem for polish Thursday: Darling Diva Polish - Gag on this!

Sent for my honest review. 
Hi cuticle cuties!

I've been skyping with my sis this entire evening and we came up with the most awesome idea ever. My sister studies literature and we decided to have a theme on my blog called poem for polish. I will send her a picture of my Thursday manicure and she will pic a poems that matches the mani. I think that the reason that I really like this idea is that I've been up since 04:30 am and I'm super tired. Anyway, today is the first ever POEM FOR POLISH THURSDAY and I hope you will like it. 
The lucky polish that is the first ever Poem for Polish-participant is Gag on this! from Darling Diva Polish's "I hate pink!"-collection. Gag on this! is a pale pink jelly with blueish flakes and a scattered holo finish. It applied easily, and it covered perfectly with three thin coats. The flakes made the finish a bit uneven so I ended up with two coats of Seche vite.

This wonderful polish is available at Darling Diva's Big cartel and costs $11 for 15ml.    
What is pink? a rose is pink
By a fountain's brink.
What is red? a poppy's red
In its barley bed.
What is blue? the sky is blue
Where the clouds float thro'.
What is white? a swan is white
Sailing in the light.
What is yellow? pears are yellow,
Rich and ripe and mellow.
What is green? the grass is green,
With small flowers between.
What is violet? clouds are violet
In the summer twilight.
What is orange? Why, an orange,
Just an orange!
