OPI "Got The Blues For Red"


Hi everyone!  Today's nail polish is OPI's "Got The Blues For Red."  I got this nail polish as part of a mini trio set that ULTA had for lack Friday one year.  The set is called The Reds Have It Trio and it looks like this:


"Got The Blues For Red" is a very pretty deep red nail polish.  Formula wise, this nail polish was awesome and very easy to apply.  After two coats of polish, "Got The Blues For Red" was completely opaque and had no visible streak marks.  In fact it was so opaque and streak free that it could be worn as a one-coater!  In terms of chipping, I was able to wear this polish for six full days before there were a few minor chips!

Overall I am very pleased with OPI's "Got The Blues For Red."  Everything about this nail polis is wonderful!  You'll definitely see me wear this polish again soon!

Noodles Nail Polish "Sea Breeze and Palm Trees"


Hi guys!  Today is a surprise extra post because I got this nail polish off of Etsy and I just couldn't wait to share it with y'all!  Each bottle costs somewhere between $8-$9 (USD) a bottle and it shipped and arrived quickly as well as being well packaged.  So without further ado, today's nail polish is Noodles Nail Polish in "Sea Breeze and Palm Trees."

"Sea Breeze and Palm Trees" is a gorgeous glittery nail polish!  It features a base color that is a pretty creamy color white with lots of blue, turquoise, and lime green multi-sized glitter pieces.  Formula wise this polish was the tiniest bit thick, but it worked to the polishes advantage because it made it easier to get the glitter evenly on the nail.  After two coats, "Sea Breeze and Palm Trees" completely opaque and streak free, which is always nice.  As for chipping, I'm still wearing "Sea Breeze and Palm trees" and it is holding up great! (And I am only three days in!)

Overall I am very pleased with Noodles Nail Polish in "Sea Breeze and Palm Trees."  Everything about this nail polish is fantastic and I will definitely be wearing this nail polish a lot more often.  I'd also like to buy some more Noodles Nail Polish!

Nicole by OPI "Great Minds Pink Alike"


Hi everyone!  It's finally Saturday and today is busy as I host one of my best friend's bridal shower! Today's nail polish is Nicole by OPI's "Great Minds Pink Alike" which was a special 2012 limited release for Target.  Ironically I found this polish at TJ Maxx as a duo with another polish.  The set looks like this:


"Great Minds Pink Alike" is a hot pink polish with hot pink shimmer!  Formula wise this nail polish was good, but just the tiniest bit watery.  However it wasn't watery enough to affect applying this polish.  After two coats of polish, "Great Minds Pink Alike" was no where near opaque, and it was particularly noticeable at the tips.  In terms of chipping, I was only able to wear this nail polish for a day and a half before it started to chip off in big chunks.

Overall I am very disappointed by Nicole by OPI's "Great Minds Pink Alike."  The formula was fair but it was upsetting that it chipped so quickly.  The only nice part about this nail polish was its name. I probably won't be wearing this nail polish again any time soon!

China Glaze "Son Of A Peach"


Hi guys!  I don't know about you, but I am so ready for the weekend!  Thank goodness tomorrow is Friday!  Today's nail polish is China Glaze's "Son Of A Peach."

"Son Of A Peach" is a very fun and neon cantaloupe color.  Formula wise this nail polish was a bit thick and it went on very streaky and uneven.  I had to apply three coats of polish for it to not look terribly streaky.  And even then it still wasn't as even as I would have liked.  As for chipping, I was only able to wear "Son Of A Peach" for three days before it started to chip off.

Overall I have mixed feelings about China Glaze's "Son Of A Peach."  The color is so fantastic and I wanted to love it but the bad formula and its streaky look made me sad.  I probably won't wear this nail polish again very soon, but it might work well if I use it with water marbling.

Essie "Salt Water Happy"


Hi all!  It is hard to believe that August is nearly over!  (Where has the year gotten to?!?)  A lot of schools are starting to go back, but that doesn't mean Summer is over quite yet!  There is still a little bit of time left to head to the beach, so today's nail polish is my ode to the end of Summer.  Today's end-of-Summer polish is Essie's "Salt Water Happy."

"Salt Water Happy" is a gorgeous periwinkle nail polish!  Formula wise this polish was unique to say the least.  "Salt Water Happy" kept separating in the bottle and it was causing the polish to be watery.  After two coats of polish, "Salt Water Happy" was completely opaque, but the goopy polish kept smudging while I was trying to paint the rest of my nails.  As for chipping, I am not sure how long "Salt Water Happy" can be worn before it chips because it smudged so badly and refused to dry that I couldn't wear this polish out of the house!

Overall I am very disappointed in Essie's "Salt Water Happy."  I wanted so badly to love this nail polish but I just couldn't.  I do love the name of the polish and its pretty color but everything else after that was terrible.  The formulation of this polish was dismal at best and it was impossible to actually wear, which after all is the entire point of nail polish.  I definitely will not be wearing this nail polish ever again!

OPI "No More Mr. Night Sky"


Hi everyone!  I can't believe another weekend has come and gone.  I hope everyone has enjoyed a nice relaxing weekend!  But without any further ado, today's nail polish is OPI's "No More Mr. Night Sky."

"No More Mr. Night Sky" is a lovely black nail polish packed full of silver shimmer.  Formula wise, this polish was decent,  The polish wasn't too thick or too thin but it was a bit difficult to apply.  After two coats "No More Mr. Night Sky" was completely opaque ad streak free, which is impressive because it looked horrible after the first coat!  In terms of chipping, I was able to wear "No More Mr. Night Sky" for four days before there were some minor tip chips.

Overall OPI's "No More Mr. Night Sky" is a good nail polish, however it was not one of my favorites.  Everything about this polish is nice and I will wear "No More Mr. Night Sky" again even if it isn't one of my top choices.
