Polish of the Week: China Glaze Coconut Kiss

Hello, lovelies! I love, love, love this polish! It's bright and fun, which makes my blah winter mood so much better! The pictures below show 2 coats with no top coat! Isn't it gorgeous?!?!


You can get this polish at Sally's Beauty Supply store, which is where I bought mine. Or, check out these online places:

8ty8beauty: $2.68 - Can you believe that price?!?!
Until next time, XOXO!!

Polish of the Week: Spontaneous by China Glaze




Hey, beauties! Hope you all had a wonderful weekend! My computer is still being worked on, but fortunately, I was able to scrounge up a polish of the week for you! Hopefully I will get my computer back sometime this week, if not by the weekend. I feel naked without it! LOL!

Anyway, this week's color is Spontaneous by China Glaze. It's a beautiful creamy lilac color. I always think of Easter when I wear this polish - hmmm, maybe because of the pastel color perhaps? Unlike last week's color, Turned Up Turquoise, this is a richer color with great coverage! Two coats and you're done with no sheerness to it at all!












You can find this color at:
Sally's Beauty Supply: $4.99

China Glaze Diva: $5.40

Until next time, XOXO!!

Polish Of The Week: Turned Up Turquoise by China Glaze

Happy Monday everyone! Hope you all had a great weekend! I'm experiencing some computer issues at the moment (aka crashing!) so I'm doing updates from work - Shhhhh! I don't know if I will be able to get an update scheduled for every day this week (I should be getting my computer back sometime this weekend), but I'll do what I can!


Ok, so my polish of the week is one of my faves - especially for the summer! It's called "Turned Up Turquoise" by China Glaze. This color is gorgeous, the pictures can't do it justice. I would say it's more on the green side so I wouldn't exactly call this color turquoise but almost like a mermaid green color. Does that make any sense? :) This color dries super fast, probably because it's a more sheer color, which leads me to my only issue with this particular color - you need a really good base coat and at least two layers of this polish. You can probably see the white from my french manicure trying to shine through the color! I put on two coats - shoulda gone with three! But it is such a gorgeous color! Definitely check it out!

Nail Polish Haul for Y'all!

Hi, Beauties! As much as I hate it, the glorious days of summer are coming to an end. Soon, we will be saying good-bye to the hot pinks, bright corals, and fantastics teals & turquoise-colored nails that we have been able to flaunt over the past few months, and hello to the rich golds, browns, and burgundies that define fall. So, I kept that in mind as I was browsing my local Sally's & ULTA stores, searching for new polish. Like I really need any more, right? But they had such gorgeous colors to bring in the fall season that I couldn't resist!

The first color is called Unplugged. It's a very rich brown-bronze sparkly color. Very pretty! Definitely looking forward to wearing this one!


Next up is In Awe of Amber. It looks orange in the picture, but it is actually a golden/bronze color. It kind of reminds me of the Scatterays solar bits from MAC's Style Warriors collection. This color can easily be transitioned from summer to fall. Beautiful!!


This one is one of my favorites! It's called Avalanche, and it is awesome! It's a purple enhanced platinum with a lot of shine!


This one is OPI's You Don't Know Jacques. It's a matte taupe. I'm not quite sure if I'm really feeling this one. I liked it in the store, but now that I look at it at home, I just don't know!


This one is called Black Diamond. It's very similar to OPI's "Baby It's Coal Outside!" The only difference is that this one is not quite as sparkly! I love black/dark polish. Some people think it's a little gothic, but I think is glamorous!

I know this next one isn't a fall type color, but I've been eyeing it for a while. It's Melon of Troy. It's a beautiful shimmery apricot color. Very feminine and pretty!

How in the world I have bypassed this color for so long, I do not know! I mean, look at it! It's called Coconut Kiss. A vibrant shimmery grape color. Another really great transition color!


The whole she-bang! I'm so excited!

You can be sure that these will be coming up soon in my Polish of the Week posts!

On another note, I will be on vacation next week! I'm so excited! I will be heading to the North Carolina eastern coast for a week! So looking forward to sun and relaxation! I will try to have some posts scheduled, but I can't promise. But I will back and posting regularly the following week!

Until next time, XOXO!!
