Essie's Parka Perfect

Hey Lovelies! Today's post is a little out of the ordinary because I forgot to take pictures of this nail look after I painted them and once I realized it it was to late to get a really good picture.what I want you all to take away from this post is how durable this polish is! I only had one chip on the side of my pointer nail and a little bit of wear on the tips. So after four days, no top coat, dishes, TONS of house work and even sledding I present to you Parka Perfect by Essie!


Parka Perfect is a dusty blue grey with a subtle silver and blue shimmer. This color is perfect for these chilly January days and I seriously can't wait to try out some awesome stamping with this color!

Pink Sweet Color Under-Oil Added Calcium Nail Art Polish Review

Hey Lovelies! Today's post goes out to all my professional and nude polish loving ladies! Sweet Color Polish just came out with a brand new eco-friendly base coat polish with calcium added. Item ID: 4523 is a beautiful nude polish with a soft baby pink hue to it. This polish is to be applied before you apply your base color to ensure a longer lasting manicure. I think this polish is amazing because it served more than just one purpose for me. I was able to use is as a base coat and have my mani last up to 4 days (I'm really rough on my hands so that was very impressive). I used Item ID: 4523 as my all over manicure color by applying 3 coats of it and then sealing it in with a coat of Seche Vite for a gorgeous natural nude look.

Sweet Color Lolita Series Eco-Friendly Candy Nail Polish Varnish #010 Review

Hey Lovelies! I am so excited to be showing you another gorgeous eco-friendly polish by Sweet Color  Polish found at Born pretty store. I used two coats of the color Item ID:3989 to get this flawless look. Item ID:3989 is a beautiful creamy flat lavender that will compliment any skin tone. This polish was extremely creamy and glided on with excellent coverage. The brush was wide enough that I only had to make two swipes to cover the entire nail. What I love most about this line of polish is that since it's eco-friendly there are no harsh chemical smells when working with them. 




Who says you can't wear a romantic purple mani for Valentine's Day?? NOT ME!!! For today's look I started out with two coats of  Item ID:3989 and two coats of China Glaze's Grape Pop on my middle finger. Once my base colors were dry I went in with  Item ID:3989 and stamped my middle finger and then went in with China Glaze's Grape Pop and stamped the rest of my nails with  plate BM-323.

Hey lovelies! For today's look I'm rocking two coats of China Glaze's It's A Trap-Eze from the brand new Cirque Du Soleil Collection. It's A Trap-Eze is a stunning milky white base chock full of multicolored glitter. At first when I saw the collection I wasn't sure I liked this one but then I started seeing people swatch it and I fell in love with it! When I won it in a giveaway The Lacquerologist was hosting I started bouncing off the walls with joy!

Sweet Color Lolita Series Eco-Friendly Candy Nail Polish Varnish #049 Review

Hey lovelies! Today I am coming at you with a beautiful swatch from the Sweet Color Lolita Series. This gorgeous color know as item ID: 4513 is a deep rich and creamy purple with a hint of silver glitter. Unlike the other two Sweet Color polishes that I own this one was a bit harder to apply. Even though the formula is rich and creamy I was having a hard time applying the polish because there was a bit of dragging with the brush. However, once I put the second coat on there was no dragging and I ended up with a beautiful streak free mani. 




Not only does the Born pretty store sell eco-friendly polish, they also supply nail art supplies, cell phone cases, makeup, hair supplies and so much more! They also ship worldwide and it's free shipping!! If your interested in grabbing a few of these beauties for yourself swing on over to the Born pretty store and don't forget to use the coupon code JFL91 to get 10% off your entire order!!

OPI Significant Other Color Swatch

Hey Lovelies! Today I have a swatch of my favorite OPI colors, Significant Other Color. This polish is a beautiful lavender with a green and yellowish gold duochrome. 




I applied three coats seeing as this polish is very sheer. When applying this color I got long flawless brush strokes with very minimal streaks! I love sheer polishes so much because you can layer them on top of multiple colors and create a whole new look. Next time I wear this polish I am going to try it over a creme lavender for a richer color.
