Skittles!

I decided to have some fun with my nail polish this week.  I wanted to wear Essie's Van D'Go but accidentally began to apply Essie's A Crewed Interest because they look so similar.  Then I just decided to go all out and apply Essie's Peach Daiquiri on my pinky.  My nails now look very springlike and festive for Easter!

Zoya- Robyn

If this isn't the epitome of a hot blue color, I don't know what is.  It's as hot as you can get without being neon.  One coat is good, two coats are better.  The formula was very easy to work with.  Nothing to add to that, onto the pictures! All pictures show 2 coats of polish+ 1 coat of Seche Vite.

My Nail Polish Collection Part 4: Zoya

China Glaze- Pool Party

This week I have been on vacation, so I was finally able to wear the extremely work inappropriate, but much anticipated, POOL PARTY!  Do I even need to say anything? This nail polish is pretty much amazing.  As a neon, it was extremely transparent, so I put a coat of white nail polish underneath to really make the color pop.  This color is actually what I was hoping flip flop fantasy would be.. a neon orange-y coral color.  The formula was actually really good for a neon, a two coater for full opacity as long as you have 1 coat of white nail polish underneath.  Like most neons, it dried with a matte finish, nothing that a little bit of Seche Vite couldn't fix.  The only downside was that it chipped on the second day :( Anyway... onto the pictures!  All pictures show 2 coats of Pool Party over 1 coat of China Glaze- White on White, with two coats of seche vite.

It glows!

China Glaze- Immortal

This was another polish that I had been wanting to try out for a while.  I'm a huge fan of gray polishes, and immortal is no exception! Immortal is a darkish gray with the slightest hint of multi colored sparkles. The formula is AMAZING.  Super pigmented and definitely a one coater.  Pictures below show two coats of immortal+ 1 coat of seche vite.  Enjoy!

Essie- Jam n Jelly

I was intrigued by this polish for a while, and finally gave in and bought it off Amazon.  It's a nice color, and I love jellies! It kind of reminds me of patent leather.  The formula was definitely one of Essie's better ones, and this was a one coater.  Pictures below show 2 coats of Jam n Jelly+ 1 coat of seche vite.
