[PW] + Nail De Royale Review Part 1

Hey everyone! I hope you're all doing well :) Today's Pink Wednesday features China Glaze Pool Party! This is shown in 2 coats and 1 layer of top coat. The picture isn't exactly color accurate because it's hard to capture its color but it's definitely a beauty and a favorite summer polish for me. Along with that I added a small nail art to the mani. as well so I hope you'll like it.

This is my honest review that is coming from me only and I am not influenced by anyone to do a review a certain way. Nail De Royale contacted me to do a review which I was happy to do. They were really friendly and they sent me a few items to review, 2 of which are in the picture above. China Glaze Pool Party and Omega Labs USA Nail Art Striper Brush in #175 were both used in this portion of the review. I received all my items for the review wrapped in plastic wrap and then bubble wrapped to make sure I received the package perfectly. I love how they carefully packaged it and went the extra mile with it. :) The formula was excellent for both and the striper brush as well. It's a bit watery compared to the other striper brushes that I have but I like this one more. I like this one more because when I'm doing nail art and it gets on the side of my nail and onto my skin, it comes off easier than the others which are more like regular creme polishes. Definitely a plus so far on my review and I'll be completing the next portion of my review, hopefully soon. :P

Stayed tuned and hope you enjoyed! :) Happy polishing!

Holo Goodness

Hey everyone! Hope you all are doing swell. :D Today's post is about a beauutiful holo!

Gosh Holographic is a silver holographic polish that is TDF! I used Gosh Fix Base Coat and then 2 coats of Holographic. Simply beautiful! The formula and application were good and it dries quickly.

Hope you all enjoyed and happy polishing :)

129

Hey everyone :) Hope you're doing well, me? Not so much. I recently got bit by a mosquito(s) and I have 5 on my face, 2 on my neck and 5 on my left arm. One of them on my arm is on my index finger and it's swelling a bit and it makes me feel like Quasimoto (from the Hunchback of Notre Dame), which I joke around with the bf about.

But here's my nails that I've had on for 2 days, which I picked out for my first day of job orientation at my new job. Alix Avien 129 is a polish my bf brought back for me from Bangladesh and I love the brand! The formula and application is good. There's a good drying time as well and it doesn't even smell bad compared to another one he brought back. He brought back a few of this brand but I wish he brought back more but I don't think there was a lot of variety when he saw them. But I love this color! It's like a red-pink fuchsia shimmer. And this is shown in 2 coats and 1 layer of top coat. Minor tip wear on the bottom from doing things with water. But still a beauty! :)

I didn't take a very good picture - but this was taken with my phone at my train station haha! It was about 8pm and it was still pretty nice outside ~ I just wished my camera caught more sun light though. :\

For those who are wondering, I'm holding a cheetah print heart necklace! It's from Forever21 and it was $4.80! I ordered some black rhinestones on eBay and I can't wait until they come in so I can decorate the black cheetah print areas with black rhinestones :B♥

Hope you all enjoyed and happy polishing! :)

Barracuda

Helloooo everyone :) So I'm pretty psyched about tomorrow because I have orientation for another job that I went to the interview for and after the interview, they offered me a job!! The job actually starts in the middle/end of August but I'm going to have training and whatnot first. :)

Today I'll be showing a polish that I've been hunting down for a while and I finally found one in Rite Aid. It was on the top shelf and I had my brother lift me up so I can get it LOL rather than ask an employee. :P It took me 4 tries to finally find it - the other times I saw the display, it was already gone :(

Sally Hansen Complete Salon Manicure in Barracuda is a soft pastel light blue creme that applies like a dream! Seriously, I was so surprised that it had good application and formula. It wasn't streaky either and it only took 2 coats! Definitely worth my wait. I almost resorted to eBay for it - and I'm glad I didn't haha. The happiness of finding and getting it myself felt better. :P

Hope you enjoyed and happy polishing! :)

[PW] Pink Me I'm Good

Hey everyone - it's On Wednesdays We Wear Pink again! So today's mani. consists of a polish that I've had for a while now, more than a few months and I've showed it once, but never on my nails so today's the day!

OPI Pink Me I'm Good is a bright pink jelly that's packed with a bunch of gold glitters. Since it's a jelly, it took me 3 coats to get it to what you see, but it has a pretty good formula so you aren't waiting forever for it to dry. :P I love it a lot and it's definitely me! ;) On the accent nail, I used 1 layer of OPI Black Shatter over PMIG.

The picture shows my little cactus plant that my mom planted in a small pot in the other room and she added seashells in the pot as well - which makes it cute and picture worthy! :D

Hope you all enjoyed and happy polishing! :)
