NYC “French White Tip” Review

Hello everyone! Sorry this post is a bit later than usual, but my next post isn’t until Monday and I felt bad for making you wait that long. So, I have decided to put up a review for a new polish that I recently bought. I really needed new one because tbh I don’t like the Sally Hansen one I’m using right now. I know I use it a lot, but that’s only because I don’t have any other ones and I always forget to buy a new one. The Xtreme Wear one that I use just dries up too quickly and gets all thick and gooey. Anyway, when I was visiting our new Walmart I saw this polish and decided to try it out.

The polish I picked up is by NYC (New York Color) in the shade “French White Tip” (#134). The reason I chose this polish is because it was so cheap! The bottle was only 99 cents for 0.45oz so I thought why not just try it out. This polish isn’t top quality, but I wasn’t expecting it to be. The formula is a bit runny, not too horrible though. The biggest issue is it goes on streaky and it takes 2-3 coats to get it opaque. In the above picture I only did 2 coats and you can tell there are some lines in the polish. It dried quickly enough and I figured that since I used this polish under an ombre that the steaks wouldn’t be too big of a deal. It seems to be lasting but I can’t be sure because, again, it’s under other polishes.

Honestly, I’d probably buy this again. Since it is so cheap it is a much better quality than I expected. The bottle is the same size as a normal nail polish bottle and the brush is an ok quality. It could have been so much worse for 99 cents. I’ll give it 3 out of 5 stars.

Tell me if you have tried this polish before and what your thoughts are in the comments below. Make sure you are following my Instagram to be updated on all my nail designs. I’ll see you on Monday! BYYEEE

L.A. Colors Color Last - First Impressions

Hey everybody! So I was walking around my local Walmart about 2 weeks ago and I came across a new display of nail polish for L.A. Colors Color Last nail polish. The polishes went for 2 dollars (I think anyway they were pretty cheap) and they claimed to last up to 10 days with the top coat. I decided I’d test that out because why not buy more nail polish that will inevitably dry out and be wasted, whatever. So that is what this blog post is for; I’ll be giving you my first impressions of both the actual polish and the top coat itself. The color I chose is called “Friendship” and it’s a neutral purple color with slight pink tones. It also has this weird glitter that you can only see when it’s wet or if you have eagle eyes. Anyway, it is a nice color (I used 2 coats) but I had a few problems with application. This particular polish did NOT go on smoothly at all and it looked really rough on its own. I contemplated testing the polish without the top coat on one hand for a bett

Hello 2017

2016 has finally ended ( finally ) and now it's time for a fresh start. I've been looking at old photos and trying to remember all of the good stuff that has happened in the pile of garbage that was the past year. I posted a whole sappy caption on my personal Instagram ( x ) and then I started thinking... What are my plans for this year? I haven't thought about it at all; I didn't even think 2016 was ever going to be over. However, I think I have some goals. First I want to look at my 2016 Best Nine from my nail Instagram ( x ) Apparently I only posted 19 photos this year yikes. Sorry that that happened I kind of feel bad about it. I really love my blog and I want to do A LOT more with it. I'll talk about that in a second though because next I want to restate my goals for 2016 that I wrote. Goals for 2016 1. Study: I slacked off this first semester with my school work and I think I could have done better. I really want to try this semester and next
