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

Suncoat Natural Nail Polish Remover First Impression

Hello everyone! Today I have a review for Suncoat’s Natural Nail Polish Remover. My mom recently purchased this online at Amazon, which at the moment is $5.68 for 60ml. It is a corn and soya based nail polish remover with only 4 ingredients, which is significantly healthier than regular polish remover. It comes in either a 30ml or 60ml glass bottle (1oz or 2oz) which is better than plastic because the chemicals in plastic bottles will soak into the remover as well, and that’s bad for you. The directions say to put it on your nails with a Q tip or cotton ball, let soak, and rub off until the polish is removed; basically, it works just like normal removers. I had my mom test it on the 4 th of July nail design and the new glitter polish I got (I test my designs on her first ok) and she gave me a review. She said that it was very very oily, but it is oil so that’s what you’d expect. It took longer to remove than what it would for normal polish remover, but it worked just as well....

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 ...

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...
