Finger Paints “Masterpiece of Minimalism” Review

Hello everyone! Today I have a swatch for you of one of the new polishes in my collection. This polish is by Finger Paints in the shade “Masterpiece of Minimalism” (#806145). This is a really lovely polish, so stick around and I’ll tell you why.

There are certain components that I look for in a nail polish, the first being color. This polish is a neutral purple that has sort of a greyish undertone to it. In the light it just looks like a very lovely purple, but in dull lighting it looks very dark and a greyish-brown. I actually really love this color and if you are a big fan of neutral shades you will definitely like it.

The next things I look for are brush size and polish consistency. The brush is a decent thickness making it easy to spread the polish on your nail without it getting all over your fingers. The polish itself is a really nice formula and it glides on smoothly. There were no bubbles in the polish after it dried, which is always a plus.

Finally, I look for chipping. This is always the hardest part for me because I redo my nails so often; I never get the full effect of a nail polish. I couldn’t really tell you how long this polish would last, but I can say that for the three and a half days I was wearing it, it did not chip. Hope that helps lol.

Overall, I’d give this polish a 5 star rating. It is a great polish and I’m glad that I received it. Who knows I may buy it again one day (if I ever run out like geez I have so many polishes how could I use them all). There is no video today, but look forward to Sunday’s design because it’s out of this world!! Hehe I’m so funny. I’ll see you soon. BYYEEE

Miracle Gel “Greyfitti” Review

Hello everyone! Today I have a review for one of my newer polishes by Sally Hansen called “Greyfitti” (#260). So, keep reading to see what I think! The first thing I have to say is that this polish took 3 coats to get this opacity. That was a little bit annoying, but it didn’t take too long to dry and this color is very pretty. I guess if you needed a really transparent grey color for any type of nail design that this polish could be considered multifunctional. Also, this color reminds me of Candie’s “Concrete Jungle”, which I’ve done reviews on before, except it's a bit of a lighter shade of grey. I may like Candie’s a bit better… no offense to Sally Hansen lol. This polish is great and you know that I love Sally Hansen products, but I prefer the other one a bit more. Overall, I’d say that this polish deserves 4 out of 5 stars. I like the color and it dries quickly. So far it has lasted with no chips (even though I haven’t had it on for that long so I’...

DIY: Pumpkin Spiced Latte

Hey everyone! So, like the basic white girl I am, I love pumpkin spiced lattes. However, buying them every day can really drain your bank account (or in this case my allowance hehe). Today I have decided to teach you how to make an easy, quick pumpkin spiced latte. Naturally, I found this recipe from Pinterest, but I tweaked it a bit. Here’s what you’ll need: ¾ cup milk (I used 2% because that’s what was in the fridge) 2 tsp. white granulated sugar 2 tbsp. pumpkin puree ¼ tsp. vanilla extract A palm full of pumpkin spice ½ cup hot coffee Whip cream (for an extra touch, but it’s optional) Start off with combining your milk, sugar, pumpkin, vanilla, and pumpkin spice. You’ll want to blend this mixture until it is frothy. I used a hand mixer, but you can use a blender if you want. Next, you want to heat up the pumpkin mixture you just made. The original recipe said to heat it in a sauce pan, which I did the first time, but I was too lazy this time an...

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 ...
