Julie G Nail Color "Cotton Candy"

If you haven't noticed, I've been obsessed with Julie G polishes lately. I love the pigmentation and the longevity of these polishes...especially for their price! This was my first time trying out Julie G Nail Color in "Cotton Candy."

Julie G Nail Color "Gelato in Venice"

I was just thinking about painting my nails with Julie G's color in "Gelato in Venice" when I saw it on Pinterest. I completely forgot that I bought it and I was presently surprised when I saw it in my nail polish collection yesterday!

China Glaze "Snow Globe"

I rediscovered China Glaze's "Snow Globe" when I wanted to paint my nails very quickly because I was going to a birthday party. I know that glitter polishes typically dry a lot faster than creme finish polishes. So, I thought Snow Globe would be a nice pop of glitter on my nails.

Julie G Nail Color "Sugar Rush"

 
Let me just start off by saying that I love this nail polish! I thought it was going to chip a lot because of the textured and matte finish, but surprisingly it hasn't chipped at all and it has been on my nails for two days now.

Julie G Nail Polish "Julie's Fav"


 
I've been loving Julie G polishes lately. This is my first time trying "Julie's Fav" and so far I love it! It applied great and I almost didn't even need two coats. This is two coats of Julie G's Polish in "Julie's Fav" with no top coat. Today is my fourth day wearing it and there is a little bit of chipping, but nothing too bad!

China Glaze "Rich & Famous"


I'm in loveeee with this color for summer! Rich & Famous is one of my favorite formulas that China Glaze makes. It doesn't have any shimmer, which sometime I like. It stayed on amazing with a base coat & top coat. If you are looking for a great summer color, I'd look out for this! In the five days that I wore it, I got tons of compliments on this color!

China Glaze "Custom Kicks"


I found this color at Ulta a few months ago, even though it was a part of the Kicks Collection. It's the perfect color for summer! It's a bright blue color, but when you're in the sun, it has a gorgeous gold glow. If I didn't have work this summer, I would definitely be sporting this on my nails more often. I'll just be keeping it on my toes! :)

China Glaze Crackle Problems



Has anyone else's China Glaze crackles gotten all thick and hard to work with? I tried putting nail polish thinner into it, but it didn't do anything. It kind of sucks because I have pretty much every color of the crackle. :( Does anyone have any tips on how to work with it?

China Glaze "Kalahari Kiss"


With Flash

Without Flash
This was the nail polish that I was extremely excited about from the Safari collection. When I put it on my nails, ehh, it wasn't want I was expecting. It's a lot more yellow than it looks in the bottle, which I don't think looks good on my skin tone. It's almost like a dijon mustard type color. It does wear good. I haven't had any chips yet and I've been wearing it for about two days. I don't think this will be the color I'll be reaching for, sadly.

China Glaze On Safari Colleciton

Hellooo, everyone! :)

If you're like me, I'm sure you're excited for the China Glaze "On Safari" Collection. I've been looking out for this forever! I've heard that the official release date is set for July 1st (I'm just secretly waiting for Sally's to have it online). Every time I go into Sally's, the colors I want are always sold out! So, I figured I might as well just buy them online because then I'll be able to find the colors I want without having to go to the store a million times!

Are you ladies looking forward to any of these colors from this collection?!

China Glaze's "Coral Star"


China Glaze's "Coral Star" is another one of those China Glaze polishes that I'm not in love with the formula. It's very thin, which I've always had a problem with the thin China Glaze polishes chipping very quickly, even with a good topcoat. I love the color of this, but to me, it's not worth all of the reapplying to have a nice manicure.

Product: China Glaze's "Coral Star"
Price: $4.99
Bottom Line: Leave It!

China Glaze's "Fast Track"


Fast Track was a part of the Hunger Games collection, which is now on clearance at Sally's. I really thought I would like this color, but it is really sheer in my opinion. I put on two thick coats but you could still see my nail bed underneath. I did a design on top of this after, so it wasn't as noticeable. I really do like this color though because it is a pretty nude with gold shimmers. Since it's a unique color, I would have to recommend this but just be aware that it may need more coats!

China Glaze's "Peachy Keen"


I've always tried to find this color in my local Sally's, but they were ALWAYS sold out! I finally got my hands on it though. :) It is a gorgeous color but it is a little bit more neon than I was expecting. I still love it though. It's very creamy but it takes a few more coats than I would like because it does tend to be streaky. I would recommend this color to everyone because it is very suitable for a lot of different skin tones.

China Glaze's "Camisole"


China Glaze's Camisole is a gorgeous almost skin-toned color. I absolutely love this color, but not so much the formula. I always have problems with China Glaze polishes that have a thinner consistency. They seem to peel right off my nails even when I use a base coat and top coat. For this reason, I don't like this polish. After a day of wearing this, I took it off because it began to look horrible. I don't know what it is about the thinner polishes but they never work for me!

Price: $4.99

China Glaze's "Make Some Noise"


This is my second time wearing "Make Some Noise" and I love it! The color is gorgeous for spring and summer. It is a creme finish and to me, it seems like it takes a little bit longer to dry than normal. But, with a top coat, this lasts a long time without chipping and I have not experienced any peeling. I know that my Sally's still has this on their shelves, so I would go check it out because it is an amazing color!

China Glaze's "Ingrid"

Let me just start off by saying, I'm so glad Sally's has this in their regular collection now! This color is gorgeous! It's a middle toned brown, but it has A LOT of gold shimmers within it. This has to be one of my colors that I adore and I always reach for if I can't decide what color to wear. This polish stayed on amazing without a top coat, but next time I'm going to use a top coat just to keep things lasting even longer! You guys need to try this color out!

China Glaze's "Exceptionally Gifted"


I've worn this color about three times and I have to say, I'm not in love with it. It always ends up chipping after a day or two. I love the color, but I guess the formula isn't the best. It kind of reminds me of the formula of neon polishes, where they are thin and chip very easily. I used a base and top coat with this, and it still chipped like crazy. This is one of those colors that I'm probably never going to reach for again!

China Glaze's "Liquid Leather"



"Liquid Leather" is a creme black color. This is the first time I've ever worn a black nail polish and I love it! I made sure to cut my nails really short, so it didn't look like too much. This is actually the best color I've had with chipping. I didn't have any chips within 3 days of wearing this color. I wore it for a week and you couldn't even tell it was on my nails for a week. This took two coats to get a deep color and it dried really quickly! If you are on the market for a black polish, choose this one!

China Glaze's "Sunset Sail"



I bought this nail polish a while back and I've worn it about two times. I absolutely love this color! I know I say this about every China Glaze polish, but this one is great. It is the "perfect" nude for my skin tone. Even with a darker skin tone, I think this color would look gorgeous on! This color was great with two coats and I did not use a top coat. There was minimal chipping until the end of the week!

China Glaze's "Sexy Silhouette"


Sexy Silhouette is a gorgeous pink color with purple undertones. I actually really like the formula of this polish. It is very thin, yet very pigmented. It took me two coats for opaque color. Not only that, but it dried very fast! I haven't had a problem with chipping and I've had this on for three days. The only problem that I have is fading at the tip of the nail, but that could be fixed with a top coat. So, if you are in need of a new pink polish, I would try this one out!
