Kleancolor "Blue Pearl" Review

Hello everyone! I'm back from Florida (well I have been for like 5 days) and while I was there we went to a lot of boutiques by the beach. If you know me at all then you know that if I see nail polish anywhere I can't resist buying at least one bottle. So I bought two. Both of them were the same brand, Kleancolor, and one of them is the color pictured above called "Blue Pearl" (#11).

This is a very pretty metallic blue color. The bottle is not deceiving as some polishes are; it's the exact same color as it looks in the bottle. I put on two coats because if you only do one it is quite transparent (which could be good for certain nail looks, but I was using it on it's own) and it's one of those polishes this separate when left on the nail. If you don't know what I mean it's like you paint it on your nail and then the polish moves apart in certain areas to leave your nail semi bare in certain spots (I can't explain this if you paint your nails a lot you know what I mean). The other thing about this polish is that it smells really weird. It doesn't smell like the normal nail polish formula and I don't know if that's just the brand or if it's from the heat it had to endure on the trip back. I have no clue.

Overall I think this polish is quite nice. With two coats it looks really pretty and it's all smooth and metallic looking. The polish does separate with only one coat, but a lot of polishes do that and I think it's mostly the metallic ones anyway, so that was expected. I can't tell you how long the polish lasts because I just put it on today, but if you are curious you could comment and remind me so I'll tell you. I just really like this color and I'm excited to use the other one I got as well (which is purple). Hope you enjoyed this post! Please let me know what you think of this polish, if you've used it, and I'll see you next time. BYYEEE

Firework Nails

Hello everyone! If you live in America then tomorrow is an exciting day for you, full of celebration. With that celebration comes amazing fireworks. So, without further a do here are my Independence Day firework nails. The polishes I used were Sally Hansen's "Co-balt Blue" (#320), "Red My Lips" (#470), "Silver Sweep" (#230), and "Grape Shifter" (#423), NYC's "French White Tip" (#134), and Blackheart Beauty's "Deep Sky Blue". I also used a nail dotter to create the fireworks. I started by painting the base colors on my nails, alternating the colors on each finger, and letting that dry. I chose to do my fireworks on the navy blue nails, but you can do them on the red or even on all the nails if you choose. For the fireworks I started with a dot for the center of the firework and added a red star there. Remember, the center of the firework does not have to be in the center of the nail (I only did that on one nai...

Miracle Gel "Game of Chromes" Review

Hello everyone! I recently purchased another nail polish from Sally Hansen’s Miracle Gel collection called “Game of Chromes” (#510) and I thought I’d write a review for it today. Frist of all, the name is genius. Secondly, lol, the color is gorgeous. It is really shiny and when you move your fingers under the light it kind of looks like it switches between silver and gold, like a hologram or something. It is just a really nice color if you are looking for a solid nail design that isn't super boring. I also really liked the formula of the polish. It went on very smoothly (just like the others from the line did) and it was opaque with one coat. When I used the top coat (which you have to buy separately unless you get a kit and it’s expensive but whatever), it lasted a long time with no chips. It still isn’t chipped and I could keep it on, but I redo my nails every week lol. That is all for today, but you can check out my most recent YouTube video here, or look through...

Green + Gold Accent Nail

Hello everyone! I wanted to do one more simple St. Patrick’s day nail design before I did the complex stuff. This is super easy and will last a while. Here’s what you’ll need. The polishes I used were Sally Hansen’s Insta-Dri shade “In Record Lime” (#50), Essie’s “Good As Gold” (#941), and my new Base + Top Coat by Revlon (#965). I also used gold glitter from SHANY's Nail Art Decoration Kit. First, I used one layer of the Revlon’s Base + Top coat to protect my nail. I am hoping that this will prevent any more staining that way my nails can grow out and be stain free before prom. Anyway, I painted all my nails, except the ring finger, with my green polish and sealed that off with a top coat. For my ring finger nail I painted two coats of my gold polish and let that dry (this is here just in case the glitter doesn’t reach all areas of the nail). Next, I painted on a layer of clear coat and quickly dipped my whole nail in the gold glitter . Brush off the excess glitter an...
