A Look at My Collection: Reds

Today I wanted to show y'all my collection of reds. I've said before that I don't have that many reds, and I find that weird because it's my favorite color. Right now I have 13 in my collection. Not even enough to fill up a whole nail wheel! But that's okay. I like the reds I have and I know I'm going to wear them a lot this fall. :)

1. Sally Hansen Xtreme Wear: Red Carpet

2. Chi: He's Chi-ting On Me

3. Sinful Colors: Sugar Sugar

4. Savvy by Femme Couture: Shimmer Time

5. Borghese: Venetian Red

6. Wet n Wild: Burgundy Frost

7. Essie: Rock Star Skinny

8. NYC: 211 A

9. Ulta: Steppin Out

10. OPI: Chick Flick Cherry

11. Sally Hansen Salon: Hollywood Scarlet

12. Wet n Wild: Red Red

13. Wet n Wild: Crazed

So that's my collection! Like I said, red is my favorite color and I really like to wear it on my nails. But, I'm not a big fan of the staining that reds *always* leave behind. It feels like no matter what you do, or how careful you are... you will still get horrible stains. Do any of y'all have any tips or tricks for removing red polish? Do y'all like to wear red? What's your favorite color to wear on your nails?

Thanks for reading! :)

Holiday Nail Options Part 2

Hello again!

This is another color I think of for the Holidays. It's Sally Hansen Salon~ Hollywood Scarlet. It is a very classic red. But, a little more on the orange-y side. I still think it works for this time of the year. Any red, to me, is perfect.

This always applies perfectly. It's really thin, but it covers the nail so nicely. The brush is also perfect. I wish all nail polish bottles had this brush. It's just so easy to apply. That's also good, because reds are so hard to put on sometimes. And, if you make a mistake it is so visible. With this, you will almost never make a mistake. It's just perfect. Three coats works great. I don't think you would need any more.

What do ya'll think?

Random Colors

Hey ya'll. Just wanted to post some random pictures of nail polish. However, most of these pictures are of pink polish. There is one exception... but most of them are pink. Anyway, read on for more details on the polish. BTW~ Most of these I did up right by using a top coat. :)

Sally Hansen~ Tender Mulberry. This color was very easy to apply and I think the color will suit most everyone. Very pretty. Two coats. :)

Sally Hansen~ Beautiful Berry. This one looks more red in the pictures than it actually is. It's not as bright. But, it's another pretty one. 3 coats, easy application. :)

Sally Hansen~ Calming Cocoa. This is the exception to all the pink polish. lol. Obviously this one is more of a brown. Cocoa is the appropriate name. 3 coats, great application. :)

Nat Robbins~ Sea Shell. I've had this polish for quite a long time, and it still applies quite well. I used three coats. :)

Jessica~ Juicy. I love this color. One of my favorites. It's a bubble gum pink. And, it applies like a dream!! :) You can use two coats, but I used three. :)

Wet n' Wild~ Frosted Fuchsia. This is one you could almost do with one coat, but I used two just out of the force of habit. lol! It flashes blue in certain lighting. :)

Maybelline New York Express Finish~ Sunset Prisms. This is another one I've had for a while. Still applies great... but it's just a little runny. I used three coats. :)

N.Y.C. ~ 108A. This is one that doesn't have a name. But, I'm pretty sure that it's called "Polyester Pink" now. I got this one before they started getting names. It's a little old, and it's running VERY thick. That made it a little hard to apply. I used three coats. But there is still visible nail line... so four coats is almost necessary.

Maybelline~ Rhinestone Pink. This is one of the "Wet Shine Diamonds" polishes. My bottle is almost empty and it is running quite thick. I used two coats. But, I almost needed three.

Sally Hansen Salon~ Pardon My French. This is obviously used more for French Manicures. But, I like the look of it when it's just solid color. It was pretty hard to apply, but I used three coats. 

That's all I have for ya'll now. I'm almost running out of polishes to show ya'll. LOL. jk... I don't think I will EVER run out.

Talk to ya'll later. :)

Hollywood Scarlet

Good Afternoon!! How are ya'll??? What have ya'll been up to?? I spent the greater part of the morning reading all the blogs I follow to see what I missed. Looks like I'm all caught up now!! Here we have Sally Hansen Salon- Hollywood Scarlet. This is a GORGEOUS red! Absolutely GORGEOUS! I put this on Wednesday night, and wore it throughout my trip... I took the pictures above today, and there is still no chipping! There is a tiny bit of tip wear, but that is normal! Now, I did apply a topcoat... and that might have something to do with it, but I still never imagined a darker color like this one would last as long as it has. I had NO issues with the application... it was FABULOUS! It only took two coats.

Enjoy!!
