Nail Polish Review!

Happy Monday!  I have a new polish review for you!  

This color actually changes color in different light, but for the most part its a vibrant, beautiful purple.

I used NYC In a NYC Minute, Quick Dry in "Prince Street"

I love the smoothness of this polish on my nails.  The color is beautiful and went on very well.  

I would give it between 1-10......a seven.  I love it, but there are more that I like better.  But for the $1.67 price, you can't beat that!

Take care :)

Last Summer Nail Review

I received the purple color on the right in a Birchbox shipment in June and I loved it!  So when the set came back in stock, I bought it.  It was $8.00 normally, but I had a feedback credit for doing some feedback on products, so I only paid $3.00 for the set...Shipped!

I did a review on the purple color here in June.  Now I want to do a review for the other three.

Mod In Manhattan

Reign In Spain

London Calling

So here they are, very neon!  This is only 1 coat and it is very thick and bright.  Unfortunately I'm very disappointed because I thought they would be just as beautiful as the purple one.

OMG....Please excuse my cuticles!  This is what it looks like up close.  I mean, they are pretty colors, but I just thought they would be lighter.  At least I only paid $3.00 for them and I now I have an extra of the purple one, "Pardon My French".  

Have a great Tuesday!

Nail Review: Loreal

I have a new nail polish review today!

The nail polish is by Loreal and is called "Crazy For Chic".  It is a pinkish/red color, but more pink than red.

I love Loreal nail polishes!  I love the new colors they keep coming up with and I have never really had a problem with them.  They go on smooth, dry smooth and last long.

I believe they are about $4.99 at Target.  So they are very affordable!

Happy Tuesday!

Tenacious Teal

Here is another quick nail polish review.  The polish I used this time is Maybelline Color Show in Tenacious Teal.  

Its a beautiful shade of green , I would say more of a medium green.  

It went on kind of thin or watery unfortunately.  I used a base/ridge filler underneath as I always do.  Then I applied 2 coats plus a shine coat on top of that and it was already chipping by the next morning.  This could be a fluke on my nails part, so I will try a different color next time and let you know.  

Its a beautiful color right after you put it on, I just didn't like the way it went on in the first place.  But its Maybelline....I have to give it a second chance!  Oh, I believe this one was about $4.99 at Target. 

Its almost the weekend...woo-hoo! 

Color Club Nails

This is the nail polish I received in my June Birchbox yesterday.  It's by Color Club in the color "Pardon My French".  

This is the most unique and amazing nail polish color I have ever tried!  I tried to capture the color on camera, but you just can't capture the true color.

I would say it is a lavender/lilac shade, but it glows!  I know that sounds weird, but it does.  Its not shimmery like so many polishes are right now, but I would say more of a light neon....glow...You'll just have to try it, trust me!

This picture is probably the closest I could get to the actual color.  So my opinion on this polish is...beautiful, glowing, smooth, matte and shiny!  Really!  The great part is the price.  The set is called The Wanderlust Collection.  It comes in a set of 4 for only $8.00!  They are sherbert colors like mint, coral, lavender and off white.  They are smaller than the normal nail polish, but at $8.00 for 4 of them, you can't beat that!  You can check them out here.   

Have a great day!

Memorial Day Manicure

Happy Memorial Day!

Here are 3 shades of pink I thought I would try out today:

The first one is Wet N' Wild's fastdry nail color called "How I Met Your Magenta".  

The shade is kind of a neon pink, which is pretty.  The polish itself goes on good but does not cover very well, in fact you can see my nail right through 2 coats of polish!

I do like the long handle on the brush though because it makes it easier to apply.

The next one is NYC's In A New York Color Minute quick dry.  That's not even the name of the color of the polish!  The color is called "Prospect Park Pink".  

This is a real pretty coral/pink.  It goes on smooth and drys quick.  I really like this one!

The last one is my fave of all three.  

It's Essie's "Fun in the Gondola".  It's a beautiful light mauve.  I went to walk the dog just now and it looks even more beautiful outside!

It goes on smooth and dries to a beautiful satin finish.

Hope you enjoyed my Pink Polish Review and if you want me to review any nail polishes for you, just let me know!

Manicure Monday: Coral

Happy Monday everyone!  I'm reviewing another nail polish today by Sally Hansen.  It's from the complete salon manicure line and the color is "Frutti Petutie" number 540.

Please excuse my messy desk background :)  I've tried the complete salon manicure line before and I love it.  It goes on very smooth with a flat brush (my fave).  No complaints about this polish.  However.....

......this color is awful!  It looks pretty on camera, but in person...Yuck!  The bottle looks like a Coral/Pink, very pretty, but when it goes on it's like a blinding pink/orange!  I guess if your on a tropical vacation it would look good, but just not for me...the polish not the vacation.  Anyway, I bought some new colors recently and I'm going to review them next Monday...so tune in :)  Take care :)

Manicure Monday: Wild Orchid

Happy Monday everyone!  Hope you all had a good weekend.  It was so much cooler here, which I love because it has been in the upper 80's for the past month.  The year before last it was like this in May, very hot and then it snowed and the next day it was back to the 80's!!

So the nail polish review of the week is Rimmel's "Wild Orchid".  It is a beautiful shade of lavender, but a little deeper in color.  

I absolutely love Rimmel's nail polishes!  They have the flat brush that I like, plus they go on like a dream.  

I put two coats of polish on and I didn't even need a shine top coat, but I may put one on later.  This polish was just under $4.00, I can't remember exactly, but for that price I actually...dare I say it?....like it better than Essie!  There.  I said it.  Just my opinion though.  Have a great day :)

Essie 2013 Summer Collection

I was at Target the other day and I had a $2.00 coupon for an Essie polish.  There are so many pretty colors right now, it was a hard decision.  Then I found this color, the only one I might add, sitting behind another polish.  Now I bought this on 4/29/13 and I was going to wait until Monday to do a review, but I just found out this color is from the 2013 Summer Collection and is due for release on 5/1/13!  Someone at Target messed up and put one of them out a few days too early!  I found out some bloggers go this collection in their PR kit, but were not allowed to put it online until 5/1/13.  

Anyway....I just thought I would share that with you :)  The color is called Naughty Nautical and I love the richness of it. It's more green than blue, so I would call it a shimmery blue/green color.  The collection has 6 colors and 5 out of 6 have shimmer.  They are beautiful from what I've seen online.  

With the coupon, I only paid $5.59 and that's not bad for a brand new collection since they are normally $10.59.  Sorry for the quick polish application, after I did the pictures my camera picked up some mistakes, but I just wanted to get it on and show you fast!  Happy Wednesday!!
