Hardwear P.D.Quick Topcoat and Nail Foundation Flawless Basecoat by Butter London

       Hey! Recently I have started to use Hardwear P.D.Quick Topcoat and Nail Foundation Flawless Basecoat by Butter London. These are probably my new favorite basecoat and topcoats. I think they do a really nice job. What I really like about the basecoat is that is dries matte, which makes sence to me. I feel like it being matte makes the polish stick to the nail better. Does that make sense? Well eith way I think that they are great!

Orly Rage



        Hey guys! I'm sorry again that I haven't posted in awhile, but I did get a new camera and I really like it! So today I have a review of Rage from Orly. It is a pretty metalic rose gold foil and it goes on the nail very smoothly. I really love this color!!! The one bad thing is that it chips very easily even with a top coat on. Even though it does chip I still think that this color is amazing and worth it. In the pictures I have on two coats of the color and I have on Nail Foundation: Flawless Basecoat by Butter London. For a topcoat I used Hardwear: P.D. Quick Topcoat by Butter London.

Disco Lights by Milani Cosmetics

        Hey! Sorry I have not posted in a while, I was at camp. While I was at camp I painted my nails with my counselor's polish and I loved it! I loved it so much that I will probably buy it. The color is Disco Lights By Milani Cosmetics. This is the first Milani Polish I have used and I loved it! Disco Lights is a regular Milani Nail Lacquer. It  is a pink and silver glitter. In this picture I used 3 coates. Since I was at camp I didn't have a top coat or base coat. If I did this again I would definetly use them. I imagine it will be very hard to get off and it is a little bumpy. A top coat would definetly fix the texture! Just so you know my pictures dont do it justice. In person my nails look like pink disco balls! My nails have already chipped after two days, but I didn't use a top coat and I was doing camp activities for one of the days. Well, untill next time!

Mermaid to Order from Sephora by OPI

Hey everybody! Sorry i havent posted yet, yesterday i just got back from Orlando Florida! I was so glad to paint my nails again! Mermaid to Order is this shimmery blue color. Usually these kinds of colors dont have a very good consistancy, and you have to put multiple coats on, but not this color! you only need to put 2 coats on and youre ready to go! for a finishing touch i used Super Fast Dry Through Top Coat Miracote by  Duri Cosmetics. It extends the life of your nailpolish (does that make sence?) and ads some extra shine!

oh and p.s.: sorry my hands are so wrinkly!!! Im not an old lady!!!!!

Miracote from duri cosmetics

Hey! I got a new top coat yesterday. I wanted to get the one from Seche Vite (is that how you spell it) but when I went to the hair salon they didn't have it so I got Miracote from duri cosmetics. The bottle says its a super fast dry through top coat. I definetly think its a good fast dry top coat. It is really good. I mean after a few minutes it is dry to touch but you can still get dents in it if you hit it againt somthing. It is really good though. I was excited about this so I redid my nails w\this morning with the same color though as last time lol. But then I spilled a white nail polish pen polish all over me soooo....yea. lol Well see you later!

Blanc by Essie

Hey!    Today's polish is Blanc by Essie, which is a pretty white! I did like this polish, but it is thick which I think allmost all Essie polishes are like that. I don't mind it though. I've wanted a good white for a while and im excited that I have this one. I used Sally Hansen Double Duty Strengthening Base & Top Coat as a base coat and Colorstay Revlon Always on Sealant as a top coat. I did get a new top coat so I will try it the next time I paint my nails.I think I finally figured out the pictures! I'll post again soon!
