Revlon: Blue Mosaic & Vlog 20!

Hey y'all! Today I wanted to show y'all one of my new favorite glitters! This is Revlon Blue Mosaic. It's a blue glitter with some green hex glitter thrown in. It's so pretty! And it is so FULL of glitter that you can wear it alone without needing a base. It's great! Take a look!

I blurred this one to kinda show how sparkly it is!


I only needed three coats for this. I let each layer dry a little bit before applying more. That helps a lot. That way you don't get any dragging or bald spots. I'm just so happy I got this! I don't usually love glitter this much, but this one definitely won my heart. What's your favorite glitter? Have you tried any glitters from Revlon? Let me know what y'all think!
And here's my 20th vlog! I can't believe I've already done 20 of these things. I hope y'all will watch this and maybe even make a vlog of your own. :)


I hope y'all have had a good weekend! Mine was pretty good, but I was pretty upset that my Hogs lost. I'm looking forward to the game next weekend, though. Thanks for reading & watching! :)

Revlon: Winter Mist

Happy Labor Day, y'all! I hope everyone has had a nice, relaxing weekend! I've had such a great weekend. My Razorbacks won 51-7 against Missouri State on Saturday night! I seriously had the best time at that game! I'm ready for the rest of the season. Woooo Pig Soooie!
Today I'm going to show y'all the last polish from the mini Revlon set I found at Big Lots. I don't know about y'all, but I'm tired of showing these little Revlon's. I'm ready to talk about something else. ha! Anyway, this is Winter Mist. It's just a basic grey. No shimmer or anything, just grey. I do like this shade because it seems like grey is going to be pretty big in the fall & winter. Take a look!

I only needed two coats for this one. It was a little more pigmented than I was expecting, which is always good! The formula was also good, just the right consistency. I don't really have anything bad to say about this set. All three polishes had a great formula and great application. The colors weren't all that unique, but I still liked them.

What do y'all think of this shade of grey? What colors are y'all looking forward to wearing in the fall & winter? What did y'all think of this set of polishes? Which was your favorite? Let me know!

Thanks for reading! :)

Revlon: Pink Ice

Hey y'all! I thought I'd just continue on with the mini Revlon set. So this is Pink Ice. It's basically your standard bubble gum pink... or pepto... with silver sparkle. At first I wasn't really interested because it was just a basic pink, but the silver sparkle is gorgeous in the sun! I tried really hard to get a good sunlight picture that showed it off, but it was almost impossible. Take a look!



I did need three coats for this one, but three coats isn't bad. And they were thin coats. The formula was easy to work with again, just not as pigmented as Cherries in the Snow. These Revlon's have been a joy to work with! I wish I could say that about all Revlon's, but I can't.

So what do y'all think of Pink Ice? What's your favorite pink? What do y'all think of Revlon? Let me know!

Thanks for reading! :)

Revlon: Cherries in the Snow

Happy Saturday! I thought I'd keep the red going just for this special Razorback football weekend! This is from the mini set of Revlon's I found at Big Lots. I'll be showing the other two pretty soon. This was a very pigmented polish, and it kind of has pink tones to it. I still classify it as red. Take a look!

Two coats was all I needed! The formula was great, and the polish was super easy to control. Sometimes with Revlon it's hit or miss. The formula can be awesome, or it can be terrible. I'm glad I lucked out on this one! Actually the whole set was pretty good.

What do y'all think of this shade? Does anyone have this? What do y'all think of Revlon? Let me know!

Thanks for reading! :)

Victorian

I'm so excited about today's post! Revlon Just Tinted- Victorian.

This polish is so much fun! I really enjoyed working with this. The formula is really interesting. It dries matte, but slapping a top coat on it gives you the most amazing finish! I'll just go ahead and say, I'm really inexperienced with how to apply these kinds of polishes. I used four coats and then the top coat. I know you more experienced bloggers are probably laughing at me. I need some practice. I know that if this is applied correctly, four coats won't be needed. So never fear! I just don't know what I'm doing. :)
What do y'all think?

Another Haul?!

Yep! I'm at it again, buying nail polish like it's going outta style. Seriously, a new bottle(s) of nail polish is one of the best things. :)
I was really on a mission to find those nail polish wheels today. I never really intended to go polish shopping. But that's what ended up happening. To find those nail wheels, I went to Sally's. You know, that place that has the displays of China Glaze, Orly, Finger Paints, and Nina polishes? The place where it's almost impossible to walk out *without* a polish? Yeah. So nothing caught my attention except Tangerine Dream by Nina Ultra Pro. I don't have any Nina's in my collection, so this is a nice addition to my polish "family."
After leaving Sally's, I was going through all these places in my head. Where can I go for more polish? One bottle just wasn't quite cutting it for me today. My next stop was Walgreens. I got Sally Hansen Complete Salon Manicure Barricuda. I saw this lovely color on Kellie's blog! After seeing it I knew I had to have it, and $7.99 wasn't gonna stop me. :)
Next was Rite-Aid. They have so many different displays of polishes. And even some brands that I didn't recognize, like a color changing thing? But what they did have was the Revlon "Just Tinted" polishes. No other store had those on display. I just got one - Victorian. I love the formula! I know I'm gonna get good use out of it. I also got a little Petites polish - Mango. I needed a bright orange. The bottle picture I have for this one isn't really color-accurate. It's a lot brighter and looks more orange than red. I love it! I found an Orly the other day that was similar to this orange, but I never got it. $1.99 is a better price anyway. :)

And my last stop was Target. I still have lots of gift cards so that's what I used for these two new Sally Hansen Insta Dri's - Sonic Bloom and Fuchsia Flare. I like my other Insta Dri's, so I thought this was a good addition. I tried them out and they are super pigmented- yay! :)
Swatching/Testing/Painting/etc. starts tomorrow! What do y'all want to see?! I'm really excited to try out all my haul polishes. :)

Steel-Her Heart


Hey ya'll!!! Did you miss my nail polish posts???
Here I have Revlon~ Steel-Her Heart. It's basically just a gunmetal color... I have another polish that is (I think) almost identical to it. I should compare them and show ya'll. Anyway, I got this one with my coupon... so it was only around two dollars. Which is about all I would really pay for it. The application was just okay... it was a little thick and goopy. Didn't really cover my nail all that well. This is the only bottle of Revlon that I own, and I don't know how many more I would get. :-/ But, I must admit... the color is very nice. :)
Oh! By the way... I did have a lot of chipping after about two days or so. That's partly why I didn't show my pinky in the pictures. If you look close, you can see the chipping on my index finger.

Enjoy and have a great day/evening! :)
