Pahlish "Hufflepuff"


Hello guys and happy Thursday!  Today's nail polish is Pahlish's "Hufflepuff" from Pahlish's Harry Potter collection.  Hufflepuff is one of Hogwarts four houses and their main house color is gold!  Here's how this gorgeous polish looks in the bottle:


"Pahlish" is a sunshiny golden yellow with lots of flakie gold glitter.  The formula of this nail polish is perfect and it applied nicely to my nails.  The glitter spreads evenly and looked great.  Since yellows are often a bit more sheer I applied three coats of "Hufflepuff" to get an opaque look.  Look at this stunning glitter up close:


Overall I am thrilled with Pahlish's "Hufflepuff."  Everything about this nail polish is perfect - as is this indie brand!  I've tried several different polishes by Pahlish and have never been disappointed!  I cannot wait to wear "Hufflepuff" again soon and to get my hands on additional colors by Pahlish.

OPI "Como Se Llama?"


Hi everyone and happy Saturday!  The weather's gone cold again so I decided to pull out a darker color for today!  So without further ado, today's nail polish is OPI's "Como Se Llama?" which is a pretty brick red creme.  Here's how this polish looks in the bottle:


As I mentioned, "Como Se Llama?" is a dark red creme.  The formula of this nail polish was quite thick and it took some patience to apply to my nails.  After two coats "Como Se Llama?" was streaky and not opaque.  I applied a third coat which solved that problem.  Here's how this polish looked up close:


Overall I am a bit disappointed by OPI's "Como Se Llama?"  I really like the color but the formula was not the best.  Since I have a fair number of red nail polishes I'm not sure how long "Como Se Llama?" will last in my collection.

China Glaze "Grinchworthy"


Hi all and happy Good Friday!  Today's nail polish is China Glaze's "Grinchworthy" - the perfect Christmas green or for springtime and Easter.  Here's how "Grinchworthy" looks up close:


"Grinchworthy" is unsurprisingly a green glitter with some gold glitter mixed in.  The formula of this polish was watery, but the glitter did apply evenly.  After two coats "Grinchworthy" was not quite opaque so I added an additional coat.  This seemed to do the trick and my nails looked gorgeous!  Here's how the glitter looks up close:


Overall I am really pleased with China Glaze's "Grinchworthy."  This nail polish is pretty good - while the formula was watery the glitter spread evenly which was made it very easy to apply.  If I could change anything I would make this polish be opaque in less coats but that being said the glitter is so pretty I'll be wearing "Grinchworthy" for a longtime to come!
