Sally Hansen: Get Ready Frost

Hey y'all! So I feel really bad for not posting anything for so long. My life is so hectic! And I'm sooo sorry for not leaving comments on blogs & stuff like that. I feel like I need one really good day to catch up on all the blogs I follow. Maybe I can do that this Sunday? I hope so! I work every weekend, so my Saturday is always shot. Unless I've made plans for the night, but still. I really like my job though, so no complaints! I also have a new boyfriend, so I'm gonna have to fill y'all in on that sometime soon. :)

I found old pictures of a polish I never posted. Why did I not post the pictures? Because the color is so incredibly boring. Like... I don't think I'll ever wear it. It's really not my thing, but it's pretty old, so I feel like it's kinda cool to have it in my collection. So I'm just gonna let y'all take a look at Sally Hansen's Get Ready Frost.

The formula was nothing special & it required three coats. The only thing that I think is kind of neat about this polish is the shimmer. I don't think I captured it very well on the camera, but it's there.

So what do y'all think of Get Ready Frost? Would y'all ever consider wearing this? Do you have a bottle or two in your collection that you know you'll never wear? Let me know!

Thank y'all so much for being such great readers & followers! I'm going to try to vlog sometime this week, when I find the time. I feel like I have so much to tell y'all! Well I do have a lot to tell y'all. Like a lot. So get pumped! AND 200 FOLLOWERS?!? SAAAAWEEET! Thank y'all for following! I'll have something special for y'all soon. :)

A Look at My Collection: Purples

Today I'm going to show y'all my collection of purples. I love wearing purple, especially in the fall. I'm glad I did this because now I know which purples I'm most definitely going to wear in the fall. :)

1. Brucci: Violet Rage

2. Sinful Colors: Purple Diamond

3. OPI: Parlez-vous OPI?

4. Sally Hansen: No Name

5. China Glaze: Avalanche

6. Orly: Charged Up

7. Borghese: Stellare Notte

8. E.L.F.: Royal Purple

9. 10: Signed, Sealed, & Delivered

10. Wet n Wild: Eggplant Frost

11. Chi: Behind Closed Doors

12. Nars: Tokaido Express

13. Sinful Colors: Daddy's Girl

14. N.Y.C.: Chinatown

15. OPI: Siberian Nights

I know a lot of these look black, but I promise y'all they're purple! Also, Daddy's Girl (Sinful Colors- #13) looks blue, but it is purple. It doesn't photograph very well. And I'm calling Borghese-Stellare Notte purple because, to me, it is. It flashes a lot of different colors, but I mostly see purple. What are y'all's favorites? I'm loving Chi Behind Closed Doors and Nars Tokaido Express. I think I'll get a lot of wear out of those this fall.

Thanks for reading! :)

Almond Essence

Here is a Sally Hansen that I've had in my polish collection for a few years. I don't think they make these anymore. It was a Sally Hansen "Beyond Perfect" polish. It's called Almond Essence and I kinda think that's the perfect name for this one. :)

It has a bit of shimmer in it when you get in the sun. I like it. :) However, application-wise, it takes around four coats. I still see "bald spots" on some of my nails. I like the neutrals, though, so this is one that will stay in my collection. It would work for a French Manicure, too. :) 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. :)

Polishes You Haven't Seen

Hey ya'll. Just FYI... this is a picture heavy post. 

Just wanted to show ya'll some polishes you haven't seen. I have them organized by brand. Enjoy :)

Here's Sally Hansen~ Flash. It's a really pretty bright blue with a nice amount of shimmer in it. I used two coats here, no application problems. :)


Sally Hansen Hards As Nails Xtreme Wear~ Fuchsia Power. This is definitely my go to HOT pink. I absolutely love it, and I have used A LOT of it. I used two coats because it is quite pigmented. You could almost use one coat. No application issues other than my bottle is old so it's running a bit thick.




Sally Hansen Diamond Strength~ Platinum. This is a truly AWESOME color. It flashes green and pink in certain lighting. I wasn't really able to capture that on the camera, SO... ya'll will just have to go get it and try it out! I used three coats. I didn't apply it very well, but that had nothing to do with the polish.


Wet n' Wild~ Lavender Pearlescent. I, HONESTLY, don't understand that name. This just looks pink to me... with a frosted look. Anyway, two coats. No application problems.
Wet n' Wild~ Mauve Frost. This one just looks brown to me. Frosted brown anyway. I guess you can kind of see the mauve in there. Another two-coater. No application problems.

N.Y.C.~ Park Avenue. These are such good polishes. And, the bottle is quite easy to store. This is a slight lavender color. Another one with the frosted effect. I used three coats, no application problems.

N.Y.C.~ Bryant Park. I used two coats. The color is kind of like a light caramel.


Sinful Colors~ Irish Green. I got this close to St. Patrick's Day. Obviously a good color for that holiday. Kind of a jelly. It's a neon as well, and it can dry a bit matte. I used four coats. If you put glitter or something on top you can get away with three coats. No application issues with this one.
Cover Girl Nail Slicks~ Citrus Punch. Such an old color, but still applied very well. I've had this one FOREVER. But, I love this shade of orange. I used three coats.


Cover Girl Boundless Color~ Bronze Beauty. A really sparkly gold. Lovely application. Two coats.

Milani~ Pink Pop. A bubblegum pink but maybe a little darker. Two-three coats works great. Great application, as well.

Hot Topic. No name. I'm calling it Yellow-Orange. It's between those two colors. Horrible application. Never dries... always streaky. I did my best with the pics. You can see how streaky it is. And, it's matte... but I don't have a problem with that. :)

Petites~ Bronze Baby. Really a favorite of mine. I love those dark browns and mushroom type colors. This is super shiny, and so pretty on the nails!! :) Two-three coats for this one as well. Pretty good application. :)

Sally Girl~ Type A. Pink-purple shade. Almost opaque in one coat. I used two anyway. Dries matte!!! YAY!!!! :) Great application.

Sally Girl~ Dumped. Kind of don't understand the names on some of these Sally Girl polishes, but oh well. I guess this is what you would call a metallic turquoise. Two coats. Went on super smooth! Perfect!

Sally Girl~ Mean Streak. Not a fancy color, just a cool navy blue. Love it, and decided to keep my nails this color! :) Two coats works perfectly for this shade. Almost opaque in one coat. :) No application problems.

Hope ya'll enjoyed these!

Last day for the GIVEAWAY! See the sidebar. :)

Talk to ya'll later.
