Revlon Nail Enamel: Untamed

*Purchased By Me

Hey guys!

Sorry for the long delay in posting. Work has been super busy, all I do lately is go to work and sleep. Work is going to get even busier now cause I got more responsibilities added to my plate.

I finally have some days off so I decided to finally make these posts that I have been putting off.

The first polish that I have up to show you is from Revlon. I really love Revlon polish. I don't know why. Not that is has super staying power, because basically no polish has ever wowed me with staying power cause my nails are so weak. It is because they have so many different colors and finishes that are very unique and I always find a new one that I like that I haven't picked up yet.

The color that I have to show you is called Untamed. This is a brown polish that when you go out into the sun turns purple. It has large copper flakies throughout. I did two coats by itself.


This color is so pretty. I didn't get to capture how it changes to a blue-purple in the sun, but just trust me on this one. If you think it looks boring now, and I don't know why you would, it looks 100 times better in the sun. This is definitely one color that I suggest you all need to add to your collection.


You can get Revlon polishes at any store near you. CVS, Walgreens, Walmart, Target, Kmart, Bed, Bath, and Beyond, anyplace that sells mainstream makeup, you are most likely to find these.

Well, that's all I have for you guys for now. I will talk to you all later, bye!

Nonie Creme Colour Prevails

*Product Purchased By Me

Hey guys!

Today I have another polish for you that I just picked up. This is a new to me brand that I just recently saw pop up.

This brand is called Nonie Creme Colour Prevails. I looked this brand up and it was created by someone that works with the high end brand Butter London.

As far as I know, you can only find this brand at Walgreens. They make eye shadow, lip stick, lip gloss, eye liner, nail polish, among other stuff. 

What I have to show you guys today is one of their nail polishes. This one is called Mr Wrong. 


It is a blue glitter polish. It has a sheer blue base mixed with blue, silver, and gold micro and small glitters. I did three coats by itself. It looks great on its own after three coats, but could also look pretty over gold or silver with just one coat.



Application was great, it had very little mess to clean up. Also, because it was sheer, it didn't stain my nails.

Sadly, I knocked my bottle of polish of my nightstand with the cap open and lost half the bottle of polish. It would be okay if I didn't like the color, plus the bottle is super pretty with the handle being a butterfly wing.

You can pick these polishes up at Walgreens. Most colors are cremes with a few glitters. They retail for $8, but I got this on sale for $5.50.

Well, that's all I have for you guys for now. I will talk to you all later, bye!

NabiColor: Navy Blue

*Product Purchased By Me

Hey guys!

Today I am back with another great review.

I am sure most of you guys have heard of the brand Nabi. I know this brand is well known for having harsh smelling polishes.

Well, I went into a local boutique in my area to look around with a friend of mine, and I noticed a couple Nabi polishes on a display.

They said Nabi, but were in long rectangle bottles with long tops, unlike the more round, stumpy bottles we are used to seeing from this brand. When I looked up the nail polish, it turned out this is from Nabi. The bottles we are used to seeing are their line Nabi I and this one is from their line Nabi V.

The color I have to show you is called Navy Blue. This is a rich sapphire blue metallic chrome. I did two coats by itself. 


Application was great. Unlike the blue Revlon polish I showed you guys earlier this week, it didn't stain and didn't make any mess. I would definitely recommend this polish. I picked it up for $5.


Well, that's all I got for you guys today. I will talk to you all later, bye!

Revlon Moon Candy Nail Art: Galactic

*Product Purchased By Me

Hey guys!

I am back today to show you a polish that I had sitting in my collection for a while, and that is no longer sold in stores.

Maybe four years ago, Revlon came out with these nail polishes, called Moon Candy. They were double ended polishes, one side was a creme and the other a jelly glitter flakie. I am not sure how many polishes were in this collection, but I think at least five or six.

The one that I have up to show you is called Galactic. It is a dark navy blue creme on one end, and a light blue jelly flakie on the other. 

The first image is of the navy blue creme. I did two coats. Application was messy, the blue seeped into my cuticles and stained my skin.


I topped it off with the light blue flakie. I did one coat on top of the blue. Application was great, it didn't give me trouble like the navy blue did.


These polishes retailed for around $8 in stores, but aren't available anymore. I can't recommend this polish cause the blue really gave me trouble. I then dropped it on the floor and it got on my shoes and floor and gave me even more trouble. But it does give a nice look with the flakie topper.

Well, that's all I have for you guys for now. I will talk to you all later, bye!

Republic Nail: Frida Kahlo Premium Nail Lacquer

*Product Purchased By My Mom

Hey guys!

I am back today with a post on a new polish brand that my mom spotted for me over at CVS a few weeks ago.

Recently, at CVS, or Longs Drugs here, and not sure if this is all of them or just ours, but they have put displays of travel and convenience beauty products up in the front closer to the registers. They had a section in one of the displays with some new nail polishes.
 
These nail polishes are by the gel lacquer brand Republic Nail. They are named after the artist Frida Kahlo.
 
This one that I have to show you is called FKN.34. They all have no real names, just letters and numbers. This one is your typical medium fuchsia pink. I did two coats by itself.


Application was great, it went on really well. Most of the colors in this line are cremes, nothing too special but great for layering glitters and other toppers over.


These polishes as far as I know can only be found at CVS/Longs Drugs. You can pick these up for $7.99 each. They have cute tops with either her face on them in her flower headpiece of other images related to her life and artwork.

Well, that's all I have for you guys for now. I will talk to you all later, bye!

Sinful Colors: Kylie Trend Matters: Kold Kash

*Product Purchased By Me

Hey guys!

I am back today with another Kylie: Trend Matters polish from Sinful Colors.

This one is called Kold Kash. It is a very pretty light blue turquoise with green shimmer. I did two coats by itself.


Application was great. It dries to a nice matte finish with a bit of shine. It goes well with Sinful Colors new camo glitter toppers, it makes a really nice base color.


You can pick this polish and more Sinful Colors at your local Walgreens.

That is all I have for you guys for now. I will talk to you all later, bye!

Formula X for Sephora Sparkle and Shine

*Polishes Purchased By Me

Hey guys!

I have another post today on some recent polishes that I picked up when I went to Ross one day.

I work at Ross, and we love to sell trios of Formula X by Sephora polishes. A bunch of them don't interest me, but sometimes we sell a pack of three that I love. I picked up one, and kept two for myself and gave one away to my mom.

I did a manicure using the two colors that I kept for myself. The colors I used are called Astonishing and Outburst. Astonishing is on my pointer, middle, and pinkie fingers and Outburst is on my ring finger.


Astonishing is a medium-dark purple filled with silver, pink, and purple shimmer. It dries to a textured finish. I did two coats by itself.

Outburst is a sheer blue jelly glitter polish. It could be used as a topper but I used it by itself. It has a medium blue base packed with silver and turquoise small and medium hex and circle glitters. I did three coats by itself.


I love these colors. Application was great. I am still a big fan of texture polishes, so Astonishing was a huge winner for me, and you guys know I love glitter polishes like you won't believe.

Formula X by Sephora polishes can be purchased at Sephora, and you can check out your local Ross to see if they have any in stock. At Sephora, these retail for $12.50 each.

Well, that's all I have for you guys for now. I will talk to you all later, bye!
