Finger Paints "Magenta Mural"

Hi all and Happy Wednesday!  (We're halfway to the weekend!)  Today's nail polish is Finger Paint's "Magenta Mural."  Finger Paints is a brand if nail polish that is available at most Sally Beauty Supply stores.

"Magenta Mural" is in fact not magenta at all and is actually a true purple with a gold iridescent shimmer.  Formula wise "Magenta Mural" is fantastic and very easy to apply.  After two coats the polish was completely opaque and streak free!  I was able to wear "Magenta Mural" for five full days before there were some small tip chips.

Overall I am very pleased with Finger Paint's "Magenta Mural."  Everything about this nail polish is fantastic and I will definitely be wearing this nil polish over and over again!

Formula X "Determined"

Hi guys and happy Tuesday!  I hope everyone is enjoying the snow (if you have any!)  My house got hit by the Nor'easter earlier this week and is covered in ice.  (Thankfully just about everything has shut down so I don't have to go out!)  Today's nail polish is Formula X for Sephora's "Determined."

"Determined" is a chocolate brown polish with a hint of iridescent shimmer.  Formula wise this polish was fair, but the small brush made it difficult to get the polish on the nail.  After two coats of nail polish, "Determined" was not completely opaque and there were visible streak marks.  As for chipping I was able to wear this nail polish for about two days before the chipping started.

Overall I was a bit disappointed by Formula X for Sephora's "Determined."  The color is pretty but the polish was hard to apply, was not opaque on my nails and began to chip after only two days.  I may try this nail polish again and perhaps with a little work I could get the polish to look better on my nails.

Ciaté "Pepperminty"

Hi guys!  I'm so sorry it has been several days since I have posted but the internet at my house died and then I had to go to Florida for a funeral and time escaped me!  But I am back now and plan on catching up with my posts!  So without further ado today's nail polish is Ciaté's "Pepperminty" which is part of Ciaté's 2013 Mini Mani Month Advent Calendar set, which looks like this:

"Pepperminty" is located under flap #11.

"Pepperminty" is a gorgeous mint green colored polish.  Formula wise this nail polish was fantastic and very easy to apply!  After two coats "Pepperminty" was completely opaque, but it did have a few minor streak marks!  As for chipping I was able to wear "Pepperminty" for about four days before there were some minor tip chips!

Overall I am very pleased with Ciaté's "Pepperminty."  Everything about this nail polish is lovely, except for the few minor streak marks!  I love the mint green color and I will definitely be wearing this polish a lot more!

Sally Hansen's Xtreme Wear "Indi-Glow"

Hi everyone!  I hope everyone is enjoying Martin Luther King Jr. Day!  (Who doesn't enjoy celebrating an awesome person and a three day weekend!)  Today's nail polish is Sally Hansen's Xtreme Wear's "Indi-Glow."

"Indi-Glow" is blurple (a combination of blue and purple) crelly (a polish that is not truly an opaque creme polish but is also not truly a see-through jelly polish) with blue and green glitter in it.  Formula wise "Indi-Glow" is a bit thick and was not the easiest to apply.  After two coats of polish, "Indi-Glow" was not completely opaque but it covered enough to look okay.  There were no visible streak marks but the tips of my nails refused to be covered so my nails looked terrible.  As for chipping I'm not sure how long "Indi-Glow" would have lasted because it looked so terrible on my nails that I refused to wear it out of the house!

Overall I am disappointed by Sally Hansen's Xtreme Wear's "Indi-Glow."  In the bottle this nail polish looked gorgeous and I was excited to wear it, but the formula was so thick and difficult to manage and then it looked awful on my nails!  Since "Indi-Glow" is such a pretty color in the bottle I'd be willing to try this polish out again and see if I have better luck with it next time!

China Glaze "Heli-yum"

Hi everyone!  I hope everyone is enjoying their weekend!  Today's nail polish is China Glaze's "Heli-yum" which is a nail polish I usually wear on my toes because it is bright and Summer-y.  (The only way it could get better is if it was actually Summer!)

"Heli-yum" is a hot pink creme polish that is a red based pink that is such a pretty color.  Formula wise this nail polish is fantastic and very easy to apply.  After two coats of polish, "Heli-yum" was completely opaque and had no visible streak marks.  As for chipping I was able to wear this polish for six full days before there were some very minor tip chips.

Overall I really like China Glaze's "Heli-yum."  Everything about "Heli-yum" is great and when I wear it on my toes I am able to wear it for a full two weeks before there are any chips.  I will continue to wear "Heli-yum" on my toes but probably not on my fingers too much because I never do matching fingers and toes.

Orly Color Blast "Tea With Mrs. Potts"

Hi guys!  I hope everyone is enjoying their 2016 so far!  Today I couldn't resist pulling out a lovely Spring pastel (even though it isn't close to Spring yet!)  So without any further ad today's nail polish is Orly Color Blast's "Tea With Mrs. Potts" which is part of Orly Color Blast's Beauty and the Beast collection!

"Tea With Mrs. Potts" is a gorgeous baby pink colored creme polish.  Formula wise this nail polish is fantastic and it was very easy to apply!  After two coats "Tea With Mrs. Potts" was completely opaque and streak free.  I was very impressed at how opaque this pastel polish was because often times pastel polishes tend to be streaky.  As for chipping I was able to wear "Tea With Mrs. Potts" for about three full days before there were any noticeable chips.

Overall I am very pleased with Orly Color Blast's "Tea With Mrs. Potts."  Everything about this nail polish is lovely and I will definitely be wearing this polish again and again!

Hi guys!  It is hard to believe that January is almost halfway over and I am definitely looking forward to Spring!  So to help keep my spirits up until the weather warms up I pulled out a bright fun glitter polish to wear!  Today's nail polish is Claire's "Disco Diva."

"Disco Diva" is a bright magenta glitter polish that I purchased from the Claire's store at the mall.  Formula wise "Disco Diva" is fantastic and very easy to apply!  After two coats the nail polish was completely opaque and streak free.  As for chipping I was able to wear "Disco Diva" for about four days before there were some small tip chips.

Overall I am very pleased with Claire's "Disco Diva."  Everything about this nail polish is fantastic and I plan on wearing it again and again!
