Essie Lollipop

Hi girls!

Today I have a swatch and review of my favorite red nail polish: Essie Lollipop.
Lollipop is a bright red crelly nail polish.

The formula is great - it is nice and easy to apply. The opacity is also good - a little sheer on the first coat but easily builtable with just two coats. After the two coats you can see a little bit of a visible nail line, but nothing that noticeable.

This is my favorite red nail polish and I just love how bright and pretty it is.

Fancy Friday: Bikini-inspired

Hello ladies!

Today I have some Fancy Friday nail art to show you guys!
This time the Fancy Friday challenge is matching a bikini! Down below is the bikini I decided to be inspired by with the nail polishes I decided to use.

For the manicure I started off with a pink base of Essie Lovie Dovie. Afterwards I used a nail art striper and the blue nail polish Sally Hansen Pacific Blue (original formula) to draw on the horizontal stripes.

I really like how these turned out and how well they are matching my bikini!

Maybelline Superpower Blue

Hello ladies!

Today I have a swatch and review of the beautiful nail polish Maybelline Superpower Blue.
Superpower Blue is a blue creme with teal undertones.

The formula was great - it was easy to work with and really creamy. The opacity was amazing as well and it was a OCW! The polish is so pigmented that I will recommend applying two coats of base coat to prevent any staining on your nails.

I love this blue nail polish and especially at that price (5 $)!

Golden rain in the urban jungle

Hey guys!

Today I want to show you guys the simple manicure that I wore today.

For the manicure I used the light beige nail polish Essie Urban Jungle with a chunky gold glitter accent nail of Maybelline Undress to Impress - pun in title intended.

I love this simple manicure!

Waterfall

Hi girls!

Sorry about the silence on the blog this last week, but I just moved and it has been really stressful. Fortunately I am back and ready to show you guys some nail art I did today - a waterfall manicure!

For the manicure I started off with a mint blue base of Essie Mint Candy Apple. Afterwards I used a small nail art brush and the silver/gold glitter Essie Beyond Cosy to make random lines in different lengths down the nail to make it resemble a waterfall.

I love a good waterfall manicure and this one is no exception.

You Are So Outta Lime! is a bright green neon.

The formula was great - it applied like a crelly, but it was nice and creamy. The opacity was great as well. I used two coats for the photo below.

I am loving this color! It is so bright and just perfect for summer!

OPI Life Gave Me Lemons

Hey guys!

Today I have another OPI nail polish to swatch and review for you - OPI Life Gave Me Lemons from the new OPI Neon Collection.
Life Gave Me Lemons is neon yellow with green undertones.

The formula was good - it applied like a crelly and it was a little streaky on the first coat, but easily build-able with three thin coats. The opacity was okay - as good as one can expect from a yellow nail polish.

I really like how bright and summer-y with polish is.
