Sephora Formula X "Infamous"


Hello everyone and happy Friday!  Today's nail polish is Sephora Formula X's "Infamous."  This brand of nail polish was sold at Sephora as their house brand but was a few years back.  Here's how it looked int the bottle:


"Infamous" is a lovely deep purple with a silver and purple shimmer.  The formula of this nail polish was really nice and it applied with ease.  After two coats, "Infamous" was completely opaque with no visible streaks.  As for chipping, I was able to wear "Infamous" for four days before there were a few chips.  The micro shows the stunning shimmer:


Overall I am happy with Sephora Formula X's "Infamous."  This nail polish is so lovely and is a great Winter nail polish.  I wish I'd stocked up on additional bottles of Sephora Formula X before they retired the brand.

Nickelodeon Slime Drip Nails


Hello guys and happy Monday!  Today's nail polish is actually a nostalgic 90's throwback nail art.  I grew-up as a complete 90's kid and have vivid memories of Nickelodeon's slime - so today I am recreating that in slime drips.  (Who else misses the great 90's TV shows?)  First off I selected the nail polish:

Essie's "Sunshine State Of Mind" and Color Club's "Tic-Tac-Toe"

Next I applied two coats of Essie's "Sunshine State Of Mind" which is a Nickelodeon orange and also has a fitting Florida name!  Here's how the gorgeous orange looked:


Next I used some dotting tools purchased on Amazon (just a basic set) and Color Club's "Tic-Tac-Toe" to create the drips.  Look how cool the drips look!


If you want to know more about Essie's "Sunshine State Of Mind" or Color Club's "Tic-Tac-Toe" check out some of my previous posts.

Overall I like how these fun nostalgic nails turned out.  I'm a little sad I had some odd marks in the tops of the slime drips but otherwise I think it turned out really nicely.  Who else wanted to be slimed as a kid?

"Berry The Hatchet" is a pretty mulberry wine colored creme.  The formula was lovely and it applied with ease.  After two coats, "Berry The Hatchet" was entirely opaque with no visible streak marks.  In terms of chipping, I was able to wear this nail polish for three days before there were so obvious tip chips.  Look how lovely this polish was on my nails:

Wet N' Wild "Metallica"


Hey guys and happy Wednesday!  I've fallen ill and am currently snuggled up in bed dreaming of feeling better.  (Here's hoping tomorrow I'm feeling better and can get back to work!)  Today's nail polish is Wet N' Wild's "Metallica" which looks like this in the bottle:


"Metallica" is shockingly a silvery grey nail polish with silver shimmer.  The formal of this polish was good but because of the shimmer there were a lot of streaky marks.  After two coats "Metallica" was completely opaque.  In terms of chipping, I was able to wear "Metallica" for three or four days before there were some chips.  Look at the shimmer in macro:


Overall I quite like Wet N' Wild's "Metallica."  The colors and formula are fantastic and made it fun to wear!  This nail polish will definitely be staying in my collection for a long while to come!

Clinique "Happy"


Hi all and happy Tuesday!  It was freezing cold today so I picked the brightest color I could find in my collection to wear!  So without further ado, today's nail polish is Clinique's "Happy" which I got as a freebie with a make-up purchase ages ago.  Here's how the mini-bottle looks:


"Happy" is a lovely bright red colored polish that leans slightly towards a coral color.  The formula of this polish was surprisingly good considering I never knew Clinique made nail polish.  After a single coat "Happy" was completely opaque and streak free.  However I did apply a second coat to test the wear time and the photos.  In terms of chipping, I was able to wear "Happy" for three to four days before there were some small chips.  Here's how pretty this polish is up close:


Overall I am surprisingly pleased with Clinique's "Happy."  The color is gorgeous and the formula wonderful, which means I actually plan to keep it in my collection!
