I've bought this nail polish a few months back and it's one of my favorite color from the Max Factor Glossfinity Nail Polish series. I'll add another color soon but for now I'm gonna show you the #15 Opal Shade.

Review: The Face Shop Nail Polish GR502 with Swatches

Onto the Second review for today. It's one of my favorite color but surprisingly I only have one color. The others was more of a pink or red tone (I wonder why??). The Face Shop is one of my favorite color for nail polishes cos they have a lot of shade and really affordable even though the color is sometimes a hit and miss for me. Anyway the one that I'm gonna review today is the GR502.

Revew: Etude House XOXO Minnie in The Nails #6 Minnie Black Face Nail Polish Review

What's up my beautiful friend? Looking real good I'll bet!  

So today I'm gonna add another nail polish review and it's one of the nail polish that I've been very excited about when it first come out in the market. It's the Etude House Minnie Collection Nail Polish!! I've actually ordered 2 nail polishes, 1 glitter and 1 highlighter from the Etude Minnie Collection but there's been a mixed up and the highlighter got broken in pieces. Well... Not pieces... It turns to powder!! Apparently the highlighter is very fragile. I got a refund for it and I've also pressed the highlighter but it doesn't look pretty. Anyway here's what it looks like...

It came in a glass bottle and doncha think the Minnie head on the cap is cute!!

Tutorial: Acid Wash Jeans Nail Art

I never interested in doing my nails before but for the past few months I was kinda into it and bought more and more nail polishes . I'm not good at nail art either since I'm bad at drawing and I don't have a steady hands, they just keep trembling!! But then... I saw this cute nail art that makes your nails look like an acid wash jeans. It was easy to make and didn't need a lot skill. Perfect for me doncha think !! Here's what you need.....

Materials:

- Base Coat

- Top Coat

- Nail Polish Remover

- Cotton Bud

- Dark Blue or Blue Nail Polish (I use Max Factor Glossfinity Nail Polish in Royal Blue)

- White or Grey Nail Polish (I use Max Factor Glossfinity Nail Polish in Noisette)

Review: Etude House Bling in The Sea Sparkling Nails (BBL601 and BBL603)

I've been absent for a few days now and even though I have a lot of pending post I don't feel like updating them... I think the heat is getting to me.. I've been feeling dizzy and spends most of my time indoors... But I made up my mind this time and gathers all of my spirit to write this post .

It's Etude House Bling in The Sea Sparkling Nails!!! Their series of glitter nail polishes is the cutest one I've encountered so far!! It really has that mermaidy feeling to it. The nail polishes that I got are:

BBL601 #04 Mermaid's Tears

BBL603 #06 Shiny Jewelry Box

Packaging:
These nail polishes comes in a slim glass bottle and I really like the blue glittery design on the caps. It is also sealed so I'll know that I'm the first one that opens the bottle.

The Nail Polish:
Etude House Bling In The Sea Sparkling Nails BBL601 Mermaid's Tears (#4) has a light blue tinted clear base polish and BBL603 Shiny Jewelry Box  (#6) has a blue tinted clear base polish. Both nail polishes has several types of glitters - there are round and hexagon shape glitters in small, medium and large size and all of the glitters has different color too!!

The Brush:

The brush is just right in length and width and it’s really easy to apply the product on my nails. I didn't have any difficulty in picking up the glitters like the previous Pink Prism Nail Polish.

Application & Consistency:
The formula is quite nice, it's not too runny that makes it hard to coat or too thick and gooey that it's hard to dry. I think it's just the right consistency and the glitters distributes nicely too.

Mermaid's Tear Swatches:
I try to use it on my nails with and without base color. The Mermaid's Tears looks very cute on my nails by itself and since some of the glitters is holographic it has different colors depending on the light. The glitter looks yellow under artificial light and light blue under natural light.

Shiny Jewelry Box Swatches:
The Shiny Jewelry Box looks pretty much the same under artificial and natural lightning and the color are more obvious than the Mermaid's Tears.

Swatches with Dark Base:
I use Royal Blue as a base for this look and if you're looking for that glam look I think Shiny Jewelry Box if the one that you wanna get although I still like the Mermaid's Tears because it sorta gives that cute melancholy look. Err... What am I talking about???

Coverage:
This nail polish has a nice coverage. I only use 2-3 coats for dense and evenly distributed glitter coverage and even if I want to have a bolder look I can always layer them again since this nail polish doesn't build up. #awesome!!!

Drying Time:
 I think the drying time is about average for this nail polish.

Finish:
It has a glossy finish and when I touch my nails it felt slightly rough from all of the glitters. I usually use top coats though for a smoother surface.

Durability:
I use this nail polish with base and top coat for about a week and no heavy duty activity and I didn't notice any tip wear or chipping but if did a lot of activity the nails polish will wear off or chipped after three days.

Removal:
Like any other glitter nail polishes this one is quite tough to remove and I had to use quite a lot of nail polish remover.

What I Like :

- beautiful glitter.

- easy to spread.

- buildable color.

What I Don't Like :

- hard to remove

Where I Buy It:

Rie Butik

Updated NOTD with a Pink Base and Shiny Jewelry Box. What do you think?

Add me on your list  ^^

Review: Etude House Pink Prism Nail Polish in #01 Sweet Bonbon

Yayyy!!! Continue on the second post for today!!

I'm pretty excited about this post because I've never review a nail polish before and I hope my first nail polish review will be up to my reader's expectation. I don't usually wear nail polishes a lot but in occasion I do love to cutify my nails and for some reason I bought a lot of nail polishes in the past few months. I'll be reviewing my other stash of nail polishes ASAP!!

So I'm not usually a fan of glitter nail polish but when I saw this meccha kawaii glitter nail polish from Etude House I fall in love at the first sight . This nail polish is from the Pink Prism Limited Edition Nail Polish and the one that I got is #01 called Sweet Bon Bon. KYAA!! Even the name is cute!! Aside from this one there's also five other shades but they are mostly pink and glittery pink.

Packaging:

Etude House always has the most cute and girly packaging. The glittery type like mine has a white cap with pink hearts on it while the regular pink shades had a pink cap with white hearts. The simple white heart logo with pink prism label is also cute.
