~BEAUTY AND THE BEAST: FUN FINDS

{source}

The live-action Beauty and the Beast remake opened this weekend, so I thought I would post a few fun finds that celebrate the film...

First up, what is more entertaining than coloring books?  I've discovered three Beauty and the Beast-themed ones that have recently been released...

Color the Classics: Beauty and the Beast: A Deeply Romantic Coloring Book

Beauty and the Beast: A Coloring Book (with Quotations from the Original Story)

Art of Coloring: Beauty and the Beast: 100 Images to Inspire Creativity

I simply adore this nail polish collection by Morgan Taylor Lacquer.  A nail artist named Go Polished has swatched these polishes and done a tutorial with some of them...

Another nail artist, The Busy Nails, also did some pretty nail art...

The names of the creams are as follows 

(from top to bottom/left to right):

Potts of Tea

Days in the Sun

Gaston and On and On

Plumette with Excitement

Be Our Guest

The Last Petal

In addition, there is a metallic topper called Enchanted Patina, which can be applied over the creams (or worn alone)...

Aaah, Rose & Robin loves a good patina!

You can view applications of the topper over the other polishes in this video (courtesy of Nails By Mae)...

Here are a couple of nail designs Sheily Mae did, and there are more on her IG...
