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. :)
It was so perfect. I didn't have any problems with application. It went on like a dream. I used three coats because two wasn't quite enough. I think if you use thicker coats, you *might* be able to get away with two. But I was so okay with three! It looked great. I think I'll still have to get used to the brush. It's kind of awkward. It's a lot like the Insta Dri brushes. It was kind of hard to work with, but once you do the first nail, you kind of get an idea of how to work with it. I just love this blue! I'm so glad I was able to find it. :) What do y'all think?
