Nail of the Day: Pacific Blue by Sally Hansen


Hello beauties! So first let me just ask, who else is excited about this weekend being the first weekend of summer?! Definitely spending it poolside :) Anyway, with it being officially summer I wanted to share with you all this brightly colored nail polish by Sally Hansen called Pacific Blue. I've never really been into blue nail polishes, I love teals and aquas but I'd never had a true blue colored one like this. I didn't think I could pull off a color like this to be honest, but O.M.G I love the way it looks! I seriously could not stop looking at my nails the first time I used it, its definitely my favorite at the moment. Now I'm excited to try out other blue nail polishes ranging from different brands to different shades of blue!

Do you have a favorite blue polish?

Nail Of The Day: Fast Track by China Glaze



Hello beauties! We are now in March, which means: THE HUNGER GAMES!!!!!!!!!! Yes, I am incredibly excited about the upcoming Hunger Games movie releasing on the 23rd, and honestly all things Hunger Games. I read the books, I will watch the movie, so it only makes sense that I would also get my hands on some of the polishes from the Hunger Games collection released by China Glaze. The one in the pictures above is called Fast Track. I would describe it as a nude with fine golden glitter. As far as nudes go, I feel like this a little darker than your typical nudes, almost a light brown. You definitely need two coats to get full opacity, but if you want to use it as a top coat over another color, one coat will do. I really love this color and feel like I will get a lot of use out of it during the summer. It's basically a nude with a punch, so it's a nice for the days you want something that looks sophisticated, yet fun. The entire collection consists of 12 colors, with finishes ranging from cream, to chunky glitter, so chances are, there's something for everyone's individual taste.

Which will you be rocking opening night?

NOTD: Rage by Orly


Hello everyone! Hope you are all doing well. With Christmas only two days away, I thought I'd share with you all the polish I've decided to wear that day. This Christmas I will be wearing Orly's Rage on my nails. I decided on this one because I wanted something different from the typical reds. I feel like this rose-gold color is just as festive because its glittery/metallic finish remind me of gift wrapping paper. This is the only Orly polish I own and I simply love it because it's quite a unique color and all you need is two coats for complete opacity. You can find Orly polishes at most drugstores and they're around $7 per bottle. The picture above honestly doesn't do this polish justice so you should definitely check it out in person if you get the chance!

Hope you all have a fantastic Christmas, or whatever holiday you celebrate, with your family and loved ones. Be safe and keep an eye out for my New Years Eve look ;)

NOTD: Facets of Fuchsia by Revlon

The moment I saw this polish it basically called my name. Have any of you noticed that glitter polishes have become really in this season?! Well I noticed, I mean OPI's new collection has some, China Glaze brought some out too, and obviously so did Revlon. Now, I have to admit this was not a in the moment purchase. I took a few days to think about it because glitter polishes are always such a fuss to remove. But after seeing it time and time again every time I walked into a store, I finally gave in, and I am ever so glad that I did! First of all let me say that I am VERY impressed with the wear of this polish! This was my first Revlon nail  polish and it didn't chip for like an entire week, maybe even longer if I hadn't taken it off haha. Furthermore, the black base of this polish is very nice and opaque after two coats, however, it does not at all cover the purple glitter. I got so many compliments while wearing it, everyone thought I had layered two polishes. I just love it, it has the darkness I like for these months, PLUS the beautiful sparkle of the glitter which is perfect with the holidays coming up. On another note, I've heard through other blogs that it is comparable to a polish released by Deborah Lippmann called Bad Romance. If you'd like to see pictures of that one, I suggest checking out Allison's blog. From what I can see, they are indeed VERY similar. Their prices differ greatly though, with Revlon being around $5 and Deborah Lippmann around $18.

What do you guys think of it?

Happy Friday <3

NOTD: Khloe had a little Lam-Lam by Nicole by OPI



As soon as I heard the Kardashian sisters would be releasing a nail polish collection I knew I'd HAVE to try them out. The collection consists of 14 colors that are named as follows: All Kendall-ed Up, Sealed with a Kris, Kim-pletely In Love, Khloé Had a Little Lam-Lam, Kourt is Red-y for a Pedi, Rainbow in the S-kylie,  Disco Dolls, Listen to Your Momager!, Wear Something Spar-kylie, It’s All About the Glam, Follow Me on Glitter, Kendall on the Katwalk, and My Empire… My Rules.




All the shades are lovely of course, but the one that really caught my eye was Khloe had a litte Lam-Lam. Teal is my favorite color and Khloe had a little Lam-Lam is a deep blue-green teal color, practically made for me ;) In the picture you can't really see its green undertones, but I assure you, they're there! It has no glitter, or sheen to it, which is the type of finish I enjoy most during the fall. I was able to find the collection, or excuse me, the Kollection, at my local Wal-mart and don't really know where else you could purchase them. I already know I will be wearing this quite often in the coming months, and who knows, I might even go back for more haha

What colors would you guys like to try?

Happy Wednesday <3
