Nail of the Week: My First Ever Nail Art!

Hey guys!

For this week's nails I decided to try doing nail art! I know the design that I did is not the most creative and is not perfect at all but I was excited to create it. The polishes that I've used for this polka-dot themed nails are Essie Eternal Optimist (a dusty rose shade, 2 coats) and Klean Color Concrete Gray (a cool blue-gray, 1 coat). 

What do you have on your nails this week?

Nail of the Week: Nicole by OPI My Empire... My Rules

For this week's nails I painted on one of the shades from Nicole by OPI's Kardashian Collection, My Empire... My Rules. This shade is kind of interesting because it is a taupe-y, gray colour with green undertones. Under some lights, you can see of the green undertones while under some lights, the gray is more pronounced. Also, I've got to say that I received quite a few compliments for the uniqueness of this shade. The formula for this shade is amazing, it applied evenly and I got full opacity with 2 coats.

Nail of the Week: OPI Don't Pretzel My Buttons

Hey guys!

How is your week coming along?

For this week, I painted my nails with one of the shades included in OPI's Germany Collection. Don't Pretzel My Buttons is a very light tan with a slight beige tone. When I was at the store I was holding this shade and My Very First Knockwurst but decided on this one and I'm so glad that I did as this is the perfect nude for me! I've always wanted a nude with no hints of pink and I finally found one. I applied 2 coats to achieve opacity with this polish.

Nail of the Week Vol. 3

Hey guys!

For this week's nails I thought to feature a cheap polish thrill for me, Forever 21's Love and Beauty.

Love and Beauty is the cosmetics line from Forever 21 and you'll find inexpensive nail polish and make up products. I'm not really a fan of their makeup products but I think their polishes have decent quality.

The shade I'm wearing is called "Coral" and it is a glittery coral red. The formula is kind of sheer but it is build-able and it applied evenly. For this look, I put on 2 coats.

Price: $3.80 CAD
Place to Buy: Forever 21

Have you tried Love and Beauty's products? 

Which one is worth sharing?

Nail of the Week: Essie Bikini so Teeny

Hey guys!

Since it's still pretty hot here in Ontario, I thought to rock out one of the shades I have from the brand's summer collection. 

 First of all, I'm already sold with the name Bikini so Teeny as it's so cute! hehe. This shade is officially described as "a sparkling, cornflower blue" in Essie's website. I would describe this shade as a gorgeous periwinkle blue that is very fitting for the summer. In the bottle, you can see shimmer but I didn't see it translate on my nails and I think it's cute-r that way. This shade has better formula than the shade I wore last week Ballet Slippers from Essie as well, it took me 3 coats to achieve opacity and applied evenly.

What shade are you rocking out this week?

Nail of the Week: Essie Ballet Slippers

Hey guys!

For today's post I would like to share one of the new shades of nail polish I recently bought. Since my nail polish collection has a lot of bright and dark colours, I thought I would change it up with something pale and nude-y.

Ballet Slippers is officially described as a "classic pale pink with sheer finish." It's a gorgeous light and girly pink but since it has a sheer finish, I needed 3 coats to get full opacity. This is one of the first Essie nail polishes that I have tried and I was quite surprised with how it applied. The application was somewhat streaky and uneven, and it took quite a while for it to completely dry.
