Urbanite

Been a while but I have a few to share. The first is Urbanite.
It's a mix of the silver metals. Silver hex, black square and hex, baby blue hex and gun metal hex.
I've shown the swatch from the left on its own, over green and over blue. I like it on its own.
This is my first post from the blog app and I'm not completely sure I like it. I can't control where the pics go. Back to the pc I go.

Dragon Scales

Loving this creation.  It's a fabulous mix of dark green and holographic wonder !!

The above picture is shown in natural light. What  a knockout !!

The next 2 pics are shown indoors with a flash.

Taking my breath away !!  For more info you can visit me at http://www.facebook.com/DuplicatesByD

Halloween Treats

It's been a while but I've been busy setting up my polish in a shop.  Not quite ready yet but getting there !!
I've brought out some fun polishes for the up coming season.  Hope you enjoy !!

The first up is one I originally called the slutty pumpkin.  Due to putting it in a shop I've altered the name to Pumpkin Spice.  Same polish .  :)

Now for something fun and new.....
Next up is Corn Candy.  One of my favorite Halloween treats.

A great mix of orange hex,  pale yellow hex and medium white hex.  Shown below with one coat.

Now for something different.  Double double Toil and Trouble.

A wonderful mix of green shimmer, pale green hex and iridescent yellow hex.  Shown below with 2 coats.

Finally,  Witches Broom.

A scary mix of black strips,  metallic orange strips and orange hex. The swatch below shows 2 coats .  It does look rough but it's quite smooth with a top coat.

Well that's it for now.  Hope you enjoyed and come visit me at http://www.facebook.com/DuplicatesByD

Fire and Ice

These are 2 polar opposite polishes.  Ice is very clear and light .  Fire is a very dense heavy glitter polish.

Fire is a mix of micro hex glitter.  Reds,  coppers,  golds , and a touch of black.  The balance of colors truly looks like fire.

On the above swatches from left to right I'm showing 3 coats, 2 in the middle and then 1 coat on the right.
There is no base coat under any of the swatches.

Ice is a light mix of micro silver and white with medium hex iridescent white, silver , 3 shades of blue and just a tiny bit of pink. There is also a very small amount of iridescent silver stars.  Just enough to get a surprise now and again.

The swatches above from the left have 3 coats, 2 coats in the middle, and 1 coat on the right.  No base coats under any of them.

Hope you enjoyed.  Come visit me at http://www.facebook.com/DuplicatesByD

Heavy Metal

This polish was made for the hard core metal fan, or just the hard core nail fan.  :)

You can see the heavy use of silver in this glitter.  I used hex and square solid silver and iridescent silver.  I also used fine gun metal glitter and and fine and medium black matte glitter.  To give it that added something I added a smidge  of red.  I wanted that bit of color but I didn't want it to dominate.

I'm showing 3 swatches.  From the left is 1 coat, middle is 2 coats and on the right is 3 coats.  There is no base coat under any of the swatches.

A Heavy Metal Hit.  Hope you enjoyed.  Come visit me at http://www.facebook.com/DuplicatesByD

Eau De Daisy

How can you not love this one ??

An amazing fun mix of daisy shaped yellow matte glitter, light green and dark green glitter hex, black strips, and multi shapes of white and black hex glitter. The above swatch shows two coats and no base coat.

This one just makes you smile.  :):):):)

The Slutty Pumpkin

This one is just fun.  I'm going to bring it back closer to hallowe'en.

As you can see it's a crazy orange shimmer polish with medium hex black and orange glitter .  I've shown it above with 2 coats and no base coat.  I think this one would be pretty great over a sheer black polish.

This close up shows how great the shimmer is in the orange.

Slutty Pumpkin will be a must have soon.  I think I'm going to wear it just so I can tell people what the name of it is.

Ice Age and Poetic Elements

I've decided to clump these two new glitters together because they're both bright and soft and subtle.  Pretty top coats if I do say so myself.

First we will look at Ice Age.  It's a beautiful mix of baby blue matte hex glitters and white matte and iridescent glitter.

It has a nice look on it's own as shown with one coat and no base coat.

You can see the multi sizes in the picture above. Very pretty.

Next polish is Poetic Elements.  I'm loving this one and it's one that I came close to not making.   I'm very pleased that I did it.

As you can see this one is a subtle mix of pastels.  There's matte white, pink, baby blue, pale yellow and lavender hex glitters in different shapes.

One coat coverage is pretty covering.  I'm trying 2 to 3 on the toes tonight with no base coat.  Just a cute fresh look.  Hope you enjoy and come visit me at http://www.facebook.com/DuplicatesByD

Don't Go Breaking My Heart

A fitting name for this glitter mix.  It's a combo of shredded black iridescent glitter and shredded matte cherry red glitter.  Add some black hearts to it and seems like a broken heart to me.

It's a dark and sexy top coat.  In the next pic I've tried to capture the heart on the swatch.  They're really hard to see in the bottle.

All of the pictures are in indoor light and 2 coats of polish with no base coat.

It's a jammed packed top coat in my own clear suspension base.  Enjoy and come visit me at

My Favorite Argyle Sweater

I love argyle on other people but I put it on and I feel like a blob.  This was my way of wearing argyle !!

My Favorite Argyle Sweater is a fun mix of matte diamond shaped pieces of white, black and purple glitter with some black and white matte strips in there too.  On the far left I've shown it over a pink, next is one coat on its own.  Third from the left is one coat over grey and then lastly is two coats on its own.   I'm liking this one on its own.  It has a great fun appeal.

You can see the swatches a bit better in the above picture.  All of the pictures are in natural indoor light.  No flash

You can see my glitters are jammed packed in the bottle.  You're guaranteed to get a lot of glitter on every nail.

Sights of Summer Collection

It's been a while but it's summer and busy times.  I'm hoping you like my new polishes as part of my Sights of Summer Collection.

From left to right Sunflower Fields, Watermelon Daze, and Blue Bayou.

The first swatch is over a sheer red and then on its own.  Both one coat.  Then watermelon over a sheer red again and on its own.  Lastly Blue Bayou over a shimmer blue and then on its own.  All are one coat.

Sunflower Fields is a refreshing glitter mix in a clear suspension base.  There are micro hex glitter, medium orange hex, large yellow squares , small green hex and large black diamonds.

They are all matte glitter and shown with a top coat.

Watermelon Daze is another refreshing polish.  I like this one.  It's fun.  It's full of medium pink hex, white strips , medium green hex and just a bit of cherry red glitter.  Of course we can't forget " the seeds " , large black diamonds.

Love it !!

Lastly is Blue Bayou.  It has multi size and color blue and teal hex.  Silver hex and silver strips.  I like this one on its own.

All of my glitters are in a clear suspension base.  Come visit me at http://www.facebook.com/DuplicatesByD

PUNK ROCK CHIC

Now here is a polish that I plan on wearing to Port Dover Friday the 13th in a few days.  I love that it has my favorite black and white but with that dash of girly (but not too girly) hot pink.

You have to love the mix of medium hex in white black and pink, and of course the extra white strips in there too.  I doubled the amount of pink in this one to make sure it really pops.

On the left is 2 coats over no base coat.  In the middle I've got 2 coats over a very sheer pink, and lastly on the right is 3 coats.  I'm not one to wear pink but I do like how it makes the colors pop.
