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

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

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

Ombre, Lily Manicure

Hey guys! I know it's been a while, but I have had ZERO clue of what designs to do and I've been doing solid colors all summer. However, last night I decided to practice making my own nail stickers and they turned out super well. I went with two types of lilies, white lilies and purple/white lilies, and decided to put them on a two-toned ombre. For the "stickers" I started with a piece of parchment paper and a clear polish. With the polish I painted 10 rectangles which I would be painting my designs over. I ended up trimming my stickers down to size later so don't worry if the base is a bit too big. After about a minute I began painting my designs over top of the rectangles making sure they weren't too big for my nail beds. I looked at a picture of a lily for reference and then just went for it. I started with the white petals, added the center color, added thin green lines with a nail art brush for stems in the center and finally the brown dots on the ste
