OPI "Light Up My Sapphire"


Hello guys and happy Wednesday!  Even though it is the middle of Summer I couldn't resist pulling out a dark wintery color!  So without further ado, today's nail polish is OPI's "Light Up My Sapphire."

"Light Up My Sapphire" is a really deep navy nail polish with silver shimmer.  Formula wise this polish was fabulous and applied with ease.  After only one coat "Light Up My Sapphire" was entirely opaque and streak free.  However I added a second coat to test out the wear time.  As for chipping, I was able to wear "Light Up My Sapphire" for five days before I noticed some chips.

Overall I am really happy with OPI's "Light Up My Sapphire."  The only slightly disappointing thing was the silver shimmer only showed up in bright sunlight on my nails.  However I will continue to wear this nail polish until the bottle runs out because the deep navy is stunning!

China Glaze "Glimmer More"


Hey guys and happy Monday!  As promised here's a fun glitter to make the Monday blues go away.  Today's nail polish is China Glaze's "Glimmer More."

"Glimmer More" is a fun pink and orange glitter in a clear base.  Formula wise this polish was watery and it was difficult to spread the glitter evenly.  However with the sponge technique (see my ring finger) I was able to get a more full and even coverage.  Since glitters usually make sun top coats I decided to test it out over a few opaque polishes.


The first polish I decided to try out with "Glimmer More" was Sinful Colors "aPEAsing."  This combination was cute and simple though not my favorite.


The second polish I tested out with "Glimmer More" was OPI's"Two-Timing The Zones."  This combination turned out so well!  It is very happy and festive and was be perfect for my niece's birth last week!  (Welcome to earth Avery!)

If you want to know more about Sinful Colors "aPEAsing" or OPI's "Two-Timing The Zones" check out some of my previous posts!

Overall I really like China Glaze's "Glimmer More."  It is a fun and brightly colored glitter that I cannot get enough of!  I would love to wear this polish all the time unfortunately at my job I can't get away with glitter nails, which means this pretty will be reserved for special occasions and the weekend.

Sinful Colors "Island Coral"


Hello all and happy Saturday!  It is very dreary and rainy our today (we do need the rain) but I wanted some bright nails to make the day brighter!  Today's nail polish is Sinful Colors "Island Coral."

"Island Coral" is a really pretty bright coral colored polish.  Formula wise this nail polish was good and very easy to apply.  After two coats "Island Coral" was entirely opaque and streak free and looked really nice on my nails!  As for chipping, I was able to wear "Island Coral" for four full days before I noticed some tip chips.

Overall I am really pleased with Sinful Colors "Island Coral."  Everything about this nail polish is great and I will definitely be wearing it a lot more often!

OPI "Two-Timing The Zones"


Hello everyone and happy Thursday!  After having a day off mid-week to celebrate 4th of July I had to return to work today.  So to help make it better I selected a bright happy pink!  So without further ado, today's nail polish is OPI's "Two-Timing The Zones."

"Two-Timing The Zones" is a really pretty bubblegum pink polish.  The formula was really great and applied well to my nails.  After two coats the polish was entirely opaque and streak free.  As for chipping, I was able to wear "Two-Timing The Zones" for six full days before I noticed some wear and tear to my tips.

Overall I am in love with OPI's "Two-Timing The Zones."  Bubblegum pinks are my favorite and this one from OPI lived up to all my hopes and expectations!  If you couldn't tell I'll be wearing this polish until the bottle runs out!

4th of July Nail Art


Hello everyone and Happy 4th of July for all of us in the United States!  Today's post features some red, white and blue fun to celebrate the holiday!  If you are celebrating with fireworks today please be careful ad stay safe!

First I needed to pick out some nail polishes:

A England's "Spirit Of The Moors," Sinful Colors "Festival Fairy," OPI's "What's Your Point-settia?" and Sephora by OPI's "Be-Claus I Said So."

Next I painted the base color on, which is A England's "Spirit Of The Moors" a gorgeous blue.  My nails looked like this:


Next I used Sinful Colors "Festival Fairy" a pretty shimmer white to create a triangle on the right side of my nails.  It took three coats to get "Festival Fairy" opaque.  They then looked like this:


After that I used OPI's "What's Your Point-settia?" to make red triangles on the left side of my nails.  It again took three coats to get the polish semi-opaque.  The nails then looked like this:


The last thing I did was add some red glitter on top of OPI's "What's Your Point-settia?" and for that I used Sephora by OPI's "Be-Claus I Said So."  It was a pretty shimmer add and topped off the nail look.  The final look was:


If you want to know more about A England's "Spirit Of The Moors", OPI's "What's Your Point-settia?" or Sephora by OPI's "Be-Claus I Said So" check out some of my previous posts.

Overall I am really happy with how this nail art turned out.  It isn't anything fancy or difficult but it looked nice and worked well for the 4th of July holiday!  I hope everyone has a fun and safe day and enjoy the firework shows!

A England "Spirit Of The Moors"


Hey guys and happy Tuesday!  If you live in the U.S.A. like I do then you're probably enjoying a day off work tomorrow!  YAY!  Today's nail polish is A England's "Spirit Of The Moors" which is part of their Emily Bronte collection.

"Spirit Of The Moors" is a stunning royal blue with silver shimmer.  The formula of this polish was outstanding and applied with ease!  After two coats, "Spirit Of The Moors" was fully opaque with no streak marks.  As for chipping, I was able to wear this nail polish for five full days before I noticed a few small chips.

Overall I am really happy with A England's "Spirit Of The Moors."  Everything about this nail polish is lovely and I cannot wait to wear it again and again!  It is perfect for Summer as it is bright and reminds me of water shining off the ocean but it is also cool enough to wear in the Winter!

butterLONDON "Tiddly"


Hey Allan happy Sunday!  It is hard to believe that today is July 1st and we are halfway through 2018!  Now that summer is in full swing I selected a bright colored polish to wear!  So without further ado, today's nail polish is butterLONDON's "Tiddly."

"Tiddly" is a really pretty orange-coral color polish.  The formula of "Tiddly" was slightly watery but it was still fairly easy to apply.  After two coats the nail polish was not quite fully opaque but pretty close.  As for chipping, I was able to wear "Tiddly" for three days before it began to flake off.

Overall I have mixed feeling about butterLONDON's "Tiddly."  I absolutely love the color but between the formula, chipping and lack of opaqueness it makes it hard for me to decide if I like the polish or not.
