Disney for Target "White"

Hello guys and welcome back to another work week.  Today's nail polish is a white nail polish with no official name - so I have been calling it Disney for Target's "White."  It looked like this in the bottle:

And it came in a trio that looks like this:

The formula of this white creme is really good and it applied nicely to my nails.  After two coats the polish was completely opaque with only a a little streak here or there.  In terms of chipping, I was able to wear this nail polish for four days before I noticed some small chips.  Look at this nice white up close:

Overall I am very pleased with Disney for Target's "White."  A good white creme goes a long way in my nail polish collection and I cannot wait to keep using this nail polish to create some great nail art!

OPI "Road House Blues"

Hello all and happy Sunday!  It is a dreary rainy weekend here in North Carolina so I picked out a dark blue to match.  So without further ado, today's nail polish is OPI's "Road House Blues" which looks like this in the bottle:

"Road House Blues" is unsurprisingly a dark navy blue polish.  The formula of "Road House Blues" was great and applied really well to my nails.  After only one coat "Road House Blues" was fully opaque and streak free.  However I applied a second coat for the photos and wear time.  As for chipping, I was able to wear "Road House Blues" for six days before there were a few tip chips.  Look how pretty this is up close:

Overall I am really happy with OPI's "Road House Blues."  The color is so lovely and is a great Wintery nail polish!  I cannot wait to wear this nail polish a lot more often.

Maniology Mani X Me February Box

Hi everyone!  Earlier this week my Maniology Mani X Me box arrived!  I am having such a great time getting this monthly subscription box so I wanted to share what I got this time!  Each set includes two nail polishes, two stamping plates, a surprise nail art item and a few candies.

First up are the nail polishes:

"Nikko" and "Shibori."

This month's nail polishes are "Nikko" and and "Shibori."  On the left is "Nikko" which is a really pretty pastel creme yellow that will be nice for Spring while "Shibori" on the right is an eggplant purple.  They make a nice combination that reminds me of East Carolina University.  Next up were the plates:

The first plate (above) is MXM001 which has some fun geometric design on it that remind me of painted designs.

The second plate in the set is called MXM002 and it features super cute with feathers, jars full of crystals and plants.  I really like how perfect this one is for Springtime!

Lastly this month's surprise nail art item are iridescent nail stickers.  They look amazing and I cannot wait to wear them!  The package has four sheets and looks like this:

Overall I like this month's set from Maniology.  It is also so convenient that they pair together polishes and stamping plates to help give me some fun ideas!  I can't wait to try these out and to see what my March box will look like!

Sinful Colors "Nail Junkie"

Hi everyone and welcome to the weekend!  Today's nail polish is Sinful Colors "Nail Junkie" which is such a fitting name considering how much nail polish I have in my hoard.  Here's how "Nail Junkie" looked in the bottle:

"Nail Junkie" is a gorgeous blue jelly with blue, green and gold glitter.  The formula of this nail polish was slightly watery but it applied fairly well.  After two coats, "Nail Junkie" was not opaque but was free from streak marks.  Since this polish is a crelly I am not surprised it wasn't opaque but it would make a nice topper for a creme polish.  To help make the nail polish look better I added a third coat, which made a big difference.  As for chipping, I was able to wear "Nail Junkie" three days before it began to flake off.  Look at this glitter up close:

Overall I have mixed feelings about Sinful Colors "Nail Junkie."  I love the color but it is a bit disappointing that it needs three coats to make it look opaque.  That being said I can see how pretty it will be as a topper and I do plan on wearing it again.

Valentine's Day Nail Art

Hi all and Happy Valentine's Day!  Anyone else dislike this holiday or is it just me?  Today's nail polish is actually some heart nail art.  Before beginning I selected this nail polishes:

Disney for Target's "White," Orly's "Devil May Care," OPI's "Lima Tell You About This Color!," Sinful Colors "Boom Boom," and Live Love Polish's "LDB."

First I placed two coats of Disney for Target's "White" to create the base for this design.  My nails looked like this:

Next I placed a layer of Orly's "Devil May Care" on my nails.  It has red and gold micro glitter in a clear base.  My nails then looked like this:

Now to add the hearts I used some nail art brushes from Maniology.  To create the pink hearts I used OPI's "Lima Tell You About This Color!" and Sinful Colors "Boom Boom."  After applying the pinks my nails looked like this:

The finally touches was to add the black border to each heart.  I used Live Love Polish's "LDB" and then my nails were finished!  Here's an up close shot of the nail art:

Overall I quite like how these Valentine's Day nails turned out!  Whether or not you have a boo to spend your day with or a pint of ice cream and Netflix, like me, here's hope you have a wonderful day!

Dupes: Essie "Meet Me At Sunset" and OPI "Juice Bar Hopping"

Hey guys and happy Tuesday!  Today's nail polish is actually a comparison between Essie's "Meet Me At Sunset" and OPI's "Juice Bar Hopping" two bright orange polishes.  Here's how they stack up in the bottles:

Essie's "Meet Me At Sunset" and OPI's "Juice Bar Hopping."

As you can see the polishes look somewhat similar in the bottle but not identical.  I applied two coats of Essie's "Meet Me At Sunset" to my middle and pinkie finger and two coats of OPI's "Juice Bar Hopping" on my pointer and ring finger.  It becomes extremely obvious on my nails how unalike these two nail polishes are.  OPI's "Juice Bar Hopping" is a lot brighter and closer to a crelly neon while Essie's "Meet Me At Sunset" is a darker creme orange.  Up close for your comparison:

If you want to know more about Essie's "Meet Me At Sunset" or OPI's "Juice Bar Hopping" check out some of my previous posts!

Overall these two nail polishes are nowhere near dupes - basically outside of both being orange they are not alike at all!  Both are fun oranges and I continue to keep them both in my collection.

Sally Hansen Insta-Dri "Heather Hustle"

Hey all and happy Monday!  It is dreary and rainy here so I pepped up Monday with a pastel color!  Today's nail polish is Sally Hansen Insta-Dri's "Heather Hustle."  Here's how pretty it looks in the bottle:

"Heather Hustle" is an absolutely gorgeous pastel purple creme.  The formula of this polish was perfect and applied with ease.  As the name implies "Heather Hustle" is meant to be a single coat that dries very quickly, which is exactly what happened!  (However I applied a second coat for the photos and wear time.)  After six days there were a few minor tip chips, which is stellar.  Check out this lovely polish in macro:

Overall I am very impressed with Sally Hansen Insta-Dri's "Heather Hustle."  everything about this nail polish is lovely and I think it is a great color for Spring and Summer!
