Revlon Starry Pink

Hi! Hope everyone's doing well!

Today I have Revlon's Starry Pink to share. 

It's a light pink polish filled with silver microglitter and hexagonal glitter. 

All photos are inside with artificial lighting.

In terms of opacity, I used four coats. You can get away with three if you don't mind it not being completely opaque. Plus it adds more dimension with more coats. The formula was good but I felt drying time was a little slower than usual. 

I love how the glitter gets submerged in between layers of polish. I can't think of any polish like this in this shade.

Close up shot. This reminds me how much I love hexagon glitter.

Anyways, have you tracked this one down yet? I recommend you do. What's your favorite Revlon polish?

Quick Haul Post

Hi! I hope everyone is having a good week!

Today I have another (mini) haul to share.

Recently I picked up four polishes: two Wet 'n' Wilds from a Walgreens and two Revlons from Target.

The Wet 'n' Wilds were on sale for $0.99 each (usually $1.99) and the Revlons were on sale for $3.74 each (usually $4.50 I think).

Left To Right:

Wet 'n' Wild 9.0.2.1. Orange, Wet 'n' Wild Teal of Fortune, Revlon Facets of Fuchsia, and Revlon Starry Pink

Wet 'n' Wild 9.0.2.1 Orange: This shimmery orange looks like a great orange for summer but I still plan on wearing this in the fall. I'm kind of annoyed at the name though.

Wet 'n' Wild Teal of Fortune: A gorgeous teal similar to Zoya Charla, though not a dupe, at a great price.

Revlon Facets of Fuchsia: This is where it gets exciting. This polish is suppose to be a dupe of Deborah Lippmann's Bad Romance polish. To think that I almost caved and spent $18! Anyways, this polish has a black base with hexagonal purple glitter and purple microglitter.

Revlon Starry Pink: This is what is on my tips now. (Pictures will be up soon!) It's a light pink with silver hexagonal glitter and silver microglitter. Personally, I haven't seen anything like it.

I tried to do some very quick swatches on an index card to give you a feel of what they look like. I know it's not much but it's better than nothing I think.

Hope this post isn't that short. I don't have much to post at the moment and I feel bad not putting anything up. You can blame my affection for Franklins Row. I left it on for six days. I'll have pictures of Starry Pink up very soon, I'm hoping tomorrow. I just need more time to do a proper review and possibly get better pictures. It's been raining here for a while which makes outside pictures let's just say difficult.

Have any of these? What are your thoughts on them? What should I try out after Starry Pink?

Nails Inc Franklins Row

I can't describe how much I love this polish. You can't buy me love but you can buy me polish. This polish is my new love.

This polish was one of the polishes in my first haul post. 

Nails Inc Franklins Row is described as a "metallic bright purple" on Sephora's website. To me it's an amazing purple with pink and blue microshimmer. Since it flashes more pink in some lighting and more blue in other lighting I think it might but a duochrome. Am I classifying this right?

Nails Inc is a brand new to me. The brand originates in London but has recently made the jump across the pond. It's available in select Sephora stores and online now. The elephant in the room: it actually costs less in the USA than in the UK. That's not fair at all. Sorry!

I'm in love with the brush on this polish. It spreads out nicely but isn't that long. It made application a breeze. I applied two coats of Franklins Row for opacity. With thicker coats you may be able to get away with one. 

I got great wear time with this polish too. I think I've had it on for six days now and only experienced tipwear and a slight chip. Mind you, polish usually does not seem to last on me. It could be because of my base coat change, using Orly Bonder now, but it could be the epic polish that is Franklins Row.

This post is picture heavy. Honestly there are a lot more pictures I could have put on here. I couldn't get enough of this polish.

The next four photos are inside with artificial lighting.

It seems to lean more pink in these indoors photos.

The next three photos are in indirect sunlight.

It looks more blue here.

These last photos are in direct sunlight.

The polish tends to look like this the majority of the time. 

This purchase was a great success. I love it. It's totally going to get me sucked in to Nails Inc polishes. By the way, I can't wait for their magnetic polishes to launch. They are more expensive than the regular line but look awesome. 

So what do you think? I am right by classifying this as a duochrome? Have any Nails Inc polishes? Think I should stop writing my posts late? I would probably write better and more comprehensive. I would get more sleep too.

Blue and Pink Arrow Nail Art

Hi! Hope everyone is having a good week!

Here's a quick post on the nail art I did on top of L'oreal Ocean Breeze.

I used Essie Watermelon, on of my first polishes, to create the "arrows". Then I outlined them with black. I used the regular brush on the Essie polish and a striper polish for the black.

These pictures were taken inside with artificial lighting.

Well that's it for today. I'll have something up tomorrow too.
