Sephora by OPI's "Metro Too Chic"

Hey all and happy happy Friday!  I am enjoying the long weekend by heading to the mountains of North Carolina! Today's nail polish is Sephora by OPI's "Metro Too Chic" which came in a mini set of the same name.  The Metro Too Chic mini set looks like this:

"Metro Too Chic" is a unique grey colored polish.  The formula of "Metro Too Chic" was perfect and extremely easy to apply.  After two coats this nail polish was completely opaque and streak free.  As for chipping, I was able to wear "Metro Too Chic" for five days before some tip wear occurred.

Overall I am really happy with Sephora by OPI's "Metro Too Chic."  Everything about this polish is great and the color is perfect Winter.  I will definitely be wearing this nail polish a lot more often!

Essie "Fashion Playground"

Hi everyone and happy Wednesday!  I hope everyone is having a nice week so far.  Today's nail polish is Essie's "Fashion Playground" which came as part of Essie's Spring 2014 mini set.  The set looks like this:

"Fashion Playground" is a lovely pastel pistachio color.  Formula wise this polish was interesting and slightly watery.  After two coats, "Fashion Playground" was mostly opaque but there were some streak marks.  In terms of chipping, I was able to wear this nail polish for three days before it began to chip off in little chunks.

Overall I have mixed feelings about Essie's "Fashion Playground."  I absolutely adore the color but I wish it was more opaque on my nails.  Next time I wear this polish I may apply three coats of polish and see if that looks any better.

Trend It Up "100"

Hi guys!  I hope everyone survived the first Monday back at work/school of 2018.  Today's nail polish is Trend It Up "100" which my parents got for me in The Czech Republic last year on their river cruise.

"100" is a really pretty periwinkle nail polish that looks very Spring-like.  Formula wise this polish was very good and easy to apply.  After two coats, "100" was perfect and entirely opaque with no streak marks.  In terms of chipping, I was able to wear this nail polish for six full days before I noticed a few small chips.

Overall I am very happy with Trend It Up's "100."  I can't wait to wear this nail polish again and I hope get my hands on more of this brands polish.  (Let me know in the comments where you buy this brand.)

OPI "Thank Glogg It's Friday"

Hi guys and happy Saturday!  It is literally an icy tundra outside, which is completely weird for the South.  To help brighten up my day I picked out a warm colored polish.  So without further ado, today's nail polish is OPI's "Thank Glogg It's Friday."

"Thank Glogg It's Friday" is a very pretty burgundy color.  The formula of this polish was perfect and very easy to apply.  After two coats, "Thank Glogg It's Friday" was entirely opaque and had no visible streak marks.  As for chipping, I was able to wear this nail polish for five days before it began to have noticeable chips.

Overall I really like OPI's "Thank Glogg It's Friday."  I think this color looks good with my skin tone and is perfect for Autumn and Winter manis!  I plan on wearing this polish a lot more often!

piCture pOlish "Salt Water"

Hello all!  After a night of it snowing here in the South we've officially closed the state down for the day.  So I am pretending to be at the beach with today's nail polish.  So without further ado, here is piCture pOlish's "Salt Water" and I am so excited because I have been wanting to try this brand out for so long!  Big thank you to Live. Love. Polish. for stocking this polish!

"Salt Water" is an absolutely gorgeous aquamarine colored polish with silver shimmer glitter!  It definitely reminds me of the ocean water when the sun reflects off of it at the beach.  (My favorite beach is the Outer Banks in North Carolina - nothing says fun like shipwrecks and lighthouses!). Formula wise "Salt Water" was perfectly and extremely easy to apply.  After two coats, this polish was completely opaque and had no streak marks.  In terms of chipping, I was able to wear "Salt Water" for a full week before I saw a few minor tip chips.

Overall I am thrilled with piCture pOlish's "Salt Water."  Absolutely everything about this nail polish is perfect and I will wear it again and again until the bottle runs out!  This is going to be my go to nail polish this Summer!

28th Birthday Nail Art!

Hello all!  Today is a special day for me because it is my 28th birthday! (I feel super old as I creep towards 30!)  I enjoyed dinner out with my friends until the snow started - here's hoping for a snow day tomorrow!  To help celebrate I decided to do some simple birthday nail art.

I stuck with some simple nail art - first I put on two coats of Zoya's "Rebel" which looked like this:

Next I applied a coat of China Glaze's "Dancing & Prancing" so my nails had some glittery fun.  They looked like this:

And finally I used dotting tools to add the number 28 with Sally Hansen Hard As Nails "Black Heart."  (See the picture at the top of the post!)

If you want to know more about Zoya's "Rebel" check out my previous post!

Overall I am really impressed with how this simple nail art turned out!  This was a really fun birthday set of nails!

Finger Paints "Van Gogh Verdigris"

Hello everyone and happy Tuesday!  I hope everyone didn't have to rough of a day readjusting to the after-holiday lurch.  Today's nail polish is Finger Paints "Van Gogh Verdigris."

"Van Gogh Verdigris" is a gorgeous green shimmer polish that definitely would fit into a Van Gogh painting!  Formula wise this polish was very sheer when first applied, however by the second coat it was fine.  After the second coat of "Van Gogh Verdigris" was applied the polish was completely opaque and streak free.  As for chipping, I was able to wear this polish for four full days before I noticed any chips!

Overall I am really pleased by Finger Paints "Van Gogh Verdigris."  I adore the color and I can't wait to wear it again and again!
