That Moment When You Stumbled Across Great Polish at the Drugstore

Essence Purple Sugar

This past two weeks have been insane for me! My whole week is loaded with assignments and essays and presentations and all that. Anyway I am back! Today I just have to share this beautiful pinky purple creme polish from Essence with you!

This stuff cost me less than $3AUD!!! So affordable and I just love how it looks! As with all Essence polishes, they have this beautiful wide brush that's slightly rounded to hug cuticles nicely and it's opaque with only 2 coats. Even though not marketed as a fast-drying polish, I find this polish dries pretty quickly between coats. If you manage to find it in your local Target or Priceline, I really suggest that you pick it up. For less than 3 dollars, you won't regret it!

Revlon Parfumerie in Wild Violets

Revlon Parfumerie: Wild Violets

So I have been away for about a month and I'm finally back! During my vacation I didn't bring any nail polishes at all and I miss my bottles of happiness. Honestly, first thing I do after I got back is open my drawer of polishes and look at it. Well, I have several scheduled posts to go up while I'm on my vacation, but when I look at it, it's just not good enough.

Anyway, today I'm back and I will be reviewing another Revlon parfumerie polish. This is my fourth post about this range of polishes. The quality is the same as with all parfumerie polishes. Thin and watery but still nicely pigmented. I would describe this polish as a shimmery deep purple polish. Nothing really out of this world regarding the color. Now let's talk about the scent! It has a sweet powdery scent. I have a love/hate relationship with the scent, sometimes I love it and can't stop sniffing my nails and other times I hate it.

Overall, still a nice addition to my polish collection. Do you like this polish? Let me know!

Inspired by Burberry Brit's Scarf

Hi Guys, I did this one quite a while ago but I forgot to put it in the blog. I like this mani, I think it is simple but effective. I really like to use that sentence. The design is inspired from Burberry Brit's scarf. OOH if only I have the budget I'd really like to get that scarf!!! Can't afford it, but can recreate it on my tips :D

What do you guys think?

Ciaté's Jewel Swatch and Review

Hey all! From previous post you will know that I injured my left index finger and it is my non-dominant hand. So it is hard to do design on my right hand. I am mending it with the teabag trick but it is still kinda painful so... Anyway, I hope next week I can paint on it again.

So, today! I have a beautiful polish which I have for quite some time. It is a gift from my dear friend. So let me present you Ciaté's Jewel.





So this beauty is made up of holographic glitter bar in an almost clear purple base. Am I saying it right? I think it is pretty and ouch ouch it is so shiny. It makes my nails pop! Application was easy; picture is 3 coats. One more thing that I like about this polish, it dries pretty quick. My tips: well you can wear it like me (3 coats) or you can layer it on top of other polish. I think it will look pretty both ways.

I created this post right after I remove this. Surprisingly, removal was not hard. Last thing that I want to add, considering the amount of glitter, it does not get bumpy so it is another plus.  So yeah, final verdict: I love this polish and totally recommending this.

Do you own Ciaté Jewel in your stash? What do you think? Do you like it as much as I do? I'd love to hear what do you think about this, leave me a comment down below and don't forget to follow me!

UPDATE: After only about 3-4 months of owning it, I find that the whole bottle of polish is totally unusable as it gets really thick and hard. I tried to revive it with some nail polish thinner but it won't help. Now, this bottle of polish is gone for good. Even though it is pretty, I don't recommend investing this.

Blue Ombre

Maybe I've done too much blue ombre manicure, but well it could never be enough; I love blue. So today I have a bluish purple ombre. What you guys think?
