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

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 Swatches

Hey guys! I know this post is late, but now that school has started back up all I ever do is homework. It's ridiculous I don't do anything anymore (not that I ever did lol). Anyway enough excuses. I did these swatches forever ago, like October of last year, so my memory of these colors are a distant memory. However, I didn't have a post planned so I thought I would show you these. The deep red color is "Wine Stock" (#480). I really like this color and it would be a great holiday nail color. However, because I love red nail polish, especially deep red, I will wear this whenever I want. As every other Miracle Gel polish I own, this is a great polish. I believe this was only one coat as well which is super cool. The other color is "All Chalked Up" (#230) and it is a pastel purple color. This color is very light-hearted and cute looking which I appreciate when it is dreary outside and I get sad. This is also a great Easter color (apparently I l...

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...
