Maniology "Ducky"


Hi guys and happy Tuesday!  Today's nail polish is Maniology's "Ducky" which is a bright green stamping polish - perfect for the Spring weather we are having in North Carolina!  "Ducky" came in one of their monthly Mani x Me subscription boxes.  Here's how it looks in the bottle:


"Ducky" is a bright neon green creme.  The formula of "Ducky" was good and applied easily to my nail.  Though it leaned a little to the thick side, which is to be expected for a stamping polish  After two coats this polish was completely opaque and with a few streak marks.  Look how pretty this color is up close:


Overall Maniology's "Ducky" is a lovely nail polish.  The color is nice and the formula is okay but I cannot wait to test it out with a stamping plate soon!

Femme Fatale "Breath Of Frost"


Hello everyone and happy Sunday!  How's everyone holding up?  Today's nail polish is Femme Fatale's "Breath Of Frost" which is a great indie brand.  Here's how this stunner looks in the bottle:


"Breath Of Frost" is a gorgeous turquoise and green color shifting polish with gold and iridescent glitter.  The formula of "Breath Of Frost" was a bit thick due to the large amount of glitter but it applied nice and evenly.  After two coats this nail polish was entirely opaque and had no visible streak marks.  Look at "Breath Of Frost" up close:


Overall I am in love with this beautiful nail polish!  Everything about Femme Fatale's "Breath Of Frost" is wonderful and it may be my go to this Summer when I'm hanging out at the beach or pool.

Sephora by OPI "Your Wish Is My Command"


Hello everyone and happy Monday! Today's nail polish is Sephora by OPI's "Your Wish Is My Command" from their Aladdin mini-set.  Sephora by OPI is a retired brand that was a collaboration between OPI and Sephora stores.  Here's how this pretty purple looks in the bottle:


"Your Wish Is My Command" is a gorgeous dusty pastel lilac colored nail polish with a surprising hint of neon.  The formula of this polish was great and applied nicely to my nails.  After two coats "Your Wish Is My Command" was not quite opaque so I added a third coat, which made a huge difference.  Look at this springtime purple up close:


Overall I quite like Sephora by OPI's "Your Wish Is My Command."  The purple color is very pretty and is a great color for Spring!  I plan on wearing this nail polish again and again as the weather begins to warm up.

This month's extra nail art item are non-latex cuticle tapes.  (Im not sure if these are single use or reusable - it would be great if they were reusable.)  They are really cute:


Overall I still really enjoy getting these boxes in the mail every month.  I love adding to my nail art collection and being able to try out new items that I might not buy for myself.  I can't wait to get next month's box!
