Nail Polish: Forever 21 - Love and Beauty - Teal

Since I arrived here in Austin I've been really psyched about trying all these things you can't get in Geneva. One of these things is (of course) Nail polishes.

I went to Forever 21 and wanted to buy some clothes. That didn't work, nothing looked good on me! I walked around the store and found my favourite thing in the world: Nail polish! I bought three bottles of it, I mean they were only $2.80!

When I tried to paint my nail with the nail polish I realized how thick it was, sadly it wasn't thick and colourful it was thick and the colour was too light.

Since it was so thick there were air bubbles, this was just one layer! Usually I never get any bubbles.

I decided to take quickly some pictures so that I wouldn't damage it and then would have to do it again to get some pictures. 

 

It was super messy because the brush was just bad, it was small and sometimes it grabbed a lot of  nail polish but didn't distribute it evenly. In general it was just awful. 

And then this happened. I had waited for over ten minutes to do anything with my nails, I wasn't even doing anything with my nail I was just turning the nail polish bottle around. I had to remove the nail polish from my nails, on all my nails the nail polish was still kinda wet. Something I really HATE about nail polishes.

After I took it all of I took this last picture showing the name of the nail polish. I wanted to show that one too because the colour is really not teal, it's more like pine tree green. 

I will try the other two that I bought from Forever 21 but I doubt that I'll buy any more nail polish from them again.

Nail Polish: Revlon - 375 Passion Fruit vs. OPI - Ate Berries in the Canaries

It's not lie that I love nail polishes. I've got a nice sized collection and always love buying new ones.  Last week I was looking into buying a new colour when I saw this one from Revlon called 375 Passion Fruit.

In the bottle it looked almost identical to one of my favourite nail polish from O.P.I called Ate Berries in the Canaries. I just had to check it out and see how similar they looked on my nails. 

As you can see they look almost identical. I find that the O.P.I is more brighter than the Revlon and I found the Revlon chip more than the O.P.I.

The extra plus to Revlon was the scent that it had when it dried, I'm not sure if it was supposed to smell like passion fruit or what, but it smelled sweet. 

I'll probably use both of them since sometimes I do like to have a little more dull colour on my nails but I do like the brightness of the O.P.I more.

Sorry for no posting, I've had had crazy weeks and travels. But now I've arrived at my final destination :)

Nail Polish: OPI - Orge-the-Top Blue

This weeks nail polish is my favorite. It's from OPI Shrek Forever After Collection. This color is called "Ogre-the-Top Blue"

I love this color because it's blue. I love blue and I love OPI! It's a match made in heaven !

I've been looking around how it's the best to do the photos and so here will be another try.

You can actually see how messy my cuticles are and that I didn't put the nail polish on super well.  But for me it doesn't really matter since I just LOVE this nail polish. 

Nail Polish: OPI - Diva of Geneva

Since I got the new laptop and will now be able to write outside the house I'm going to start this new thing called Nail Polish of the Week. Why? Because I love having nail polish on my nails and this will give me a better excuse for buying a new one. The first one will be Diva of Geneva by OPI.

I got this one from my step mum for Christmas and well I love it! There are couple of reasons why I love it. 

1. The color, it's shimmery without being too much (since I don't really like glitter) 

2. This one and all my OPI polishes are just so easy to apply. I used to hate nail polishes because they wouldn't dry so I would end up with a mess! That has never been a problem with OPI!

I always use a nail strengthener under my polish to strengthen my nails and keep them from getting a funky color from the nail polish itself! That has happened to me with my green nail polish. My nails went yellow and the yellow had to grow away. It was pain! After that I ALWAYS put a base before the color!

 Here is the color outside in daylight. I know it isn't the best picture. I'm working on taking better pictures.
