5 Nail Polish Colors to Try Right Now from @AllureMagazine and @CoffebreakwithDani

Hi Girls,

As you all know I am a drugstore junkie and pure nail polish addict, so as soon I saw @coffebreakwithdani video for this Allure Magazine article for five Nailpolish shades to rock this summer 2015, it totally inspired me to share my picks.

Hope you will find something from your stash too:) do share your picks with me.

This is the article and color selection Allure Magazine picked.

5 Nail Polish Colors to Try Right Now

MAGENTA

We get that you're not Malibu Barbie. But this take on hot pink has cool lavender undertones that make it elegant. It explains why magenta was the manicure of choice on spring runways, including Chanel's.

My Picks:-Essence in Ultimate Pink, WetnWild Shine in Lavender Crème, Essence Girls Night Out, NYC Wine Bar and Sinful Colors in Ablaze

Magenta is my favorite from all nail polishes color for summer. That is why you will see I have more options in that.

   

 

PAPAYA

What could be more appropriate for warmer weather than nails that are the color of fresh tropical juice (bright orange with a hint of pink)?

My Picks:- Sally Hansen Sun Kissed, WetnWild Shine in Blazed, Essie 1095 and Lac Beauty 1964

  

     

INDIGO BLUE

A hint of purple makes this blue an edgy update on the cobalt and navy manicures you've probably seen everywhere over the last year

My Picks:- NYC Purple Pizzazz, Sally Hansen Pacific Blue

   

SEAFOAM GREEN

This is the vacation version of a goes-with-everything neutral. Pale mint is soft enough to work with your brightest bikini.

My Picks:- Sally Hansen in Mint Sorbet and Sally Girl in Brainy

 

BRIGHT LEMON

True, yellow nail polish isn't for everyone. It looks as crisp as linen on fair or dark complexions, but on olive skin, it emphasizes yellow undertones.

My Picks:- Sally Hansen Xtreme Wear in Mellow Yellow and NYC Long Wear in Midtown Mimosa

  

I already shared my Manicure using some of these polishes on my blog and Instagram , if you want to see how I did it, click on Instagram account (cateyesdamsel) or have a look at my previous blogpost.

Cheers

Happy Summer girls and do share your picks with me for this summer

Memorial Day Nails

Hi Girls, I picked up this Sinful Colors Star Blast off Nail polish top coat from Walgreens. I wanted to pick this up as I loved the color combination of matte glitter it had. It has red, white and blue round glitter with different sizes and also has white stars.
This nail polish is part of new display of Having a Blast collection from Sinful Colors Professional.
I posted about this on my Instagram around two weeks ago. If you don’t follow me on Instagram, you are missing a lot of updates on drugstore products. I post a lot on my account, be sure to check it out.

I used here a blue base nail polish but this will look very pretty on white base, or red base too. May be on July 4th Nails I will try that too.

Beach / Mermaid Nails - Sally Hansen Triple Shine Make Waves 160

This is such a beautiful nail polish from this Sally Hansen Triple Shine Nail polish collection. I picked up recently last two of these colors from Walgreens, in clearance for $1.29 each, which was an amazing deal I think. It was actually for more than $8. This is such a pretty dual chrome nail polish in green blue color, which is perfect mermaid shade.

This sis just one coat, for these nail polish you actually have to do at least three coats for real mermaid color, below are the swatches for same. I love this beautiful nail polish in summer and spring. You can actually do waves nail art on it with stamping tool which will look really cool also. You can actually do these as beach nails too.

Summer Pastel Nailpolish - Swatches for Poparazzi Lovely in Lilac

 

Poparazzi  brand, this is only available at CVS. This was the first time I was trying this brand and decided to try this one as it was on super cheap sale. They are generally around $2.99 and they have a wide range of nail polishes with such a cute polka dot cap, really cute. This color is such a pretty pastel nail polish, it is such a calm color.

The only thing I didn’t like about them is the way they smell, it is awful. I just cannot bear the smell, so I am thinking to return it. Even when I removed this one, it smells horrible.

 

I have also reviewed Poparazzi Cuticle Oil Too Cute-icle  before, if you want to see click here.

Hope you liked my mini review on this brand. If you want to see other beauty related posts, don’t forget to connect with me on my social media. I post about drugstore products a lot.

Poparazzi Cuticle Oil Too Cute-icle

Hi Girls
Happy Monday !!
Todays post is all about Cuticle Oil. Picked up this at CVS for $.99 on Pop.arazzi sale. It is 0.5 Fl Oz / 14.8 ml.


I normally use olive oil for my cuticles and hands once a week.

So lets talk about Pop.arazzi  brand, this is only available at CVS. This was the first time I was trying this brand and decided to try this one as it was on super cheap sale. They are generally around $2.99 and they have a wide range of nail polishes with such a cute polka dot cap, really cute. I have bought couple of them will post "NOTD "soon .


So how do I use, Cuticle oil:-

After I remove my nail polish I file my nails. Then I use cuticle oil, for at least 10 minutes by massaging into all my fingers along with my toes, yes that’s right don’t forget your toes. It smells like berries, which is a plus sign to use on cuticles. I have used this product since three weeks now. I use it twice a week, even when I have my nail polish on. It does not do anything to nail polish colors so don’t worry. It is good hydrating product for my cuticles for this price. I just use two drops for one hand , but I still do my olive oil routine once a week.

If you get this in your CVS, I would totally recommend this to you.

Swatches for Revlon Parfumerie Wild Violets Nailpolish

Hi Girls,

Today I am back with another blogpost of Nailpolish from Revlon Parfumerie called Wild Violets. It is from Scented Nail Enamel collection which came around last year.

For the Parfumerie range when the polish dries it gives off a mild fragrance that matches the shade name; as like Wild Violets which does not bother me at all. For some people it was a strong scent. This nail polish has orange/gold shimmer with dark chocolate color. This is perfect for Holidays. I got this for $9 which is pricey on drugstore side. But the shimmer does not show up so prominently, in the sunlight the gold sparkles really comes alive. It requires two coats, one coat was not enough for me. It lasted me five days without chipping.

Another nail polish from same line, I have reviewed is Revlon Parfumerie Autumn Spice Nailpolish

Cheers
