Whimsical Ideas by Pam - Summer 2017 Collection

Hi all!

Press Sample

I have a fun little summer collection from Whimsical Ideas by Pam to share with you today.  Pam's collections are always a nice mix of finishes so there is something to appeal to everyone.  This summer, we have shimmers and glitter toppers and a nice creme.  And of course, there are those adorable bottles.  The Summer 2017 Collection is available now, let's take a look at the pretties!

Wink - A soft cornflower blue creme with the most subtle white shimmer.  I love the formula of this shade and the color.  Great application, almost a crelly quality to it.  The shimmer is very subtle that I would call this shade a creme but it is there.  Just barely.  I am showing you two coats with a glossy top coat here.

Happy Camper - A clear based topper with matte neon glitters of yellow, pink and teal in a variety of shapes.  It is very fun topper for summer.  The colors and shapes of the glitters give it a retro 80s vibe.  This is one coat over white with a glossy top coat.  I did have to place the larger glitters slightly, but they came out plentifully on the brush.

Rise and Shine - A sunny yellow jelly with fine golden microshimmer.  This is a nice yellow.  It was smooth to apply and built up nicely.  The shade of yellow is perfect for summer but would also look great in the fall, too.  I am showing you three thin coats with a glossy top coat here.

Feelin' Groovy - A clear based topper with matte sky blue hexes, small magenta dots, white flowers and yellow smiley face glitters.  This topper is very base heavy and required a lot of manipulation to get the larger glitters where I wanted them.  The color combo is nice though.  It does make for a playful manicure.  I am showing you one coat over a dark grey with glossy top coat.  

Out of the Blue - A bright turquoise crelly with lime green hex glitters are various sizes.  Squishy and bright, just how I like them.  This is a fun summer crelly.  I like that there is only two colors here, they compliment each other very well.  The formula was very easy to apply.  This is three thin coats with a glossy top coat.

Fins - A clear based topper with metallic dots and hexes in aqua, orange and silver.  This polish is inspired by the Miami Dolphins but I had more of Ariel in mind.  So I paired this over purple for her shell bikini.  It is an easy glitter topper to work with.  Good glitter to base ratio and easy to apply. I am showing you one coat over a grape purple with glossy top coat here.

Beach Please - A clear based polish with silver, aqua and ocean blue metallic microchimer and cobalt blue metallic hexes.  This is super shiny and shimmery!  It does give the effect o sparkling ocean waters.  You could get away with using this as a topper but I liked it built up on its own.  This is three thin coats with glossy top coat.

What a fun little collection, right?  My personal faves are Wink and Out of the Blue (psst...I like squishiness).   The Summer 2017 Collection is available right now.  Head over to the Whimsical Ideas by Pam Facebook page for ordering info.  All of the orders are done via email, not an online store.  Each polish is $10.  

Smooches!
