Finger Paints Peace, Love, & Color (Haul, Review & Swatches)

Posted by Eveypoison | Labels: , , , , , , ,

Peace, Love, & Color is Finger Paints Summer 2011 collection. It has six new nail polishes. This is what the display looks like:
Out of the six shades I ended up getting three (I only paid for two & the third one was free). The three I got where All You Need Is Color (shimmer), Peaceful Purple (shimmer), and Psychedelic Sunshine (shimmer). Recently I ended up getting the other three because they were on special. Finger Paints is on special for $3.99. The other three are  Give Pink A Chance (Crème), Groovy Green (shimmer), & Outta Sight Orange (shimmer).  
Polish Overview:
All You Need Is Color
Is a shimmery turquoise. 
Swatch:
With Flash
Without Flash
Formula: While I thought I would like this color the most I ended up like Psychedelic Sunshine because it was more opaque. This was sheer and needed 3 coats.
Give Pink A Chance
is a bright vibrant pink coral. 
Swatch:
With Flash
Without Flash
Groovy Green
is a lime green.
Swatch:
With Flash
Without Flash
Formula: This one is really thick. Nothing that can't be fixed with nail polish thinner. On a side note the ripple on the finger is not because of the nail polish. It is because of my nails. 
Outta Sight Orange 
is a orange with pink shimmer
Swatch:
With Flash
 Formula: This is two coats
Peaceful Purple
Is a shimmery violet. 
Swatch:
With Flash
Without Flash
Formula: This formula is just like All You Need Is Color but a little better.  Both All You Need Is Color & Peaceful Purple left me kind of disappointed since I wish they were a bit more opaque. I do not recommend both these nail polishes to any one who does not like to fuss with nail polish in order for it to show up. 
Psychedelic Sunshine
Is a shimmery bright yellow.
Swatch:
With Flash
Without Flash
Formula: In the beginning I thought this formula was too thick but it ended up being fine. I only needed one coat. I did not plan on getting this one but I got it because it was free (during april Sally Beauty Supply had a special where if you bought two polishes you could get another one {same price or less} for free)
Overall:  If I could only get one nail polish I would be stuck between Psychedelic Sunshine & Outta Sight Orange. If I was forced to choose one I would pick Outta Sight Orange because I do not have anything like it. The one I liked least was Groovy Green. It's just something about the formula. It applies kinda strange. If you do not like having to build up the color I suggest you skip out on All You Need Is Color, and Peaceful Purple. 

On a side-note: I am sorry I am only showing you a swatch on one nail. As I have said in previous posts my nails are not in their best shape. I had acrylic nails done in March. The nail technician went drill crazy and filed my nails too much. When I do have my nails in better health I promise all future swatches will be a full hand.

China Glaze Island Escape (Haul, Review & Swatches)

Posted by Eveypoison | Labels: , , , , , , , , , , ,

Recently I was able to find China Glaze's summer collection, which is Island Escape. It has six new nail polishes. This is what the display looks like:
There are two different finishes which are crème (some say neon instead) & shimmer. The six nail polishes are Blue Iguana, Cha Cha Cha,  Electric Pineapple, Papaya Punch, Señorita Bonita,  & 108 Degrees. 
Polish Overview:
Blue Iguana
I would describe this color as a teal with blue shimmer. 
Swatch:
 With Flash
Without Flash
Notes: This was three coats.
Cha Cha Cha
This is a bright lime green with yellow iridescence.
Swatch:
With Flash
 Without Flash
Note: This was one coat.
Electric Pineapple
This shade for me is a little hard to describe. I would say it is a bright yellow green. This is one of the shades that has a crème finish.  
Swatch:
With Flash
Without Flash
Note: This was three coats.
Papaya Punch
When I see this shade I do not see papaya I think of mangos. I would describe this as a bright mango orange. This is the other nail polish in this collection that has a crème finish.  
Swatch:
With Flash
 Without Flash
Note: This was one coat.
Señorita Bonita 
I would describe this as a bright violet with pink shimmer. (On a sidenote: I really think this name is cute)
Swatch:
With Flash
 Without Flash
Note: This was three coats.
108 Degrees
To me this is a red cherry with pink shimmer. 
Swatch:
With Flash
 Without Flash
Note: This was three coats. 
Overall I really like this collection. The polish that impressed me the most was Papaya Punch. The reason it impressed me so much was because the pigmentation was amazing and the formula was nice too. I was a little disappointed with Blue Iguana and Senorita Bonita because you need to build them up. No surprise if I could only get one polish it would be Papaya Punch. I am truly surprised that I would choose that one since I LOVE purples & greens. I would have chosen Senorita Bonita if it were pigmented. The reason I did not choose Cha Cha Cha is because I find it to be a generic color. It looks like Sally Hansen Hard As Nails Xtreme Wear in 17 Ivy League (In a future post I will compare the two).

Gold Mode Nails Of The Moment & Review

Posted by Eveypoison | Labels: , , , , , , ,

I am using wetnwilds nail polish in The Gold & the Beautiful. It is part of their new fast dry collection. This collection came out with 18 nail polishes. All the nail polishes name are inspired by tv shows. The tv show in this case is The Bold & the Beautiful.
So here is some basic info on the nail polish:

Amount: It has .46 fl. oz./ 13.5 mL of product.

Availability: You should be able to find this in any drugstore with wetnwild. (I am referring to the US, I am not sure about other places, sorry)

Applicator: There is a new applicator, which is the Manicurve brush. It is not too big or small. I really like it because it makes it easier to paint my nails. Since it is rounded in the ends it does not get all over the place.

Price: It retails for $1.99.

Pigmentation: This needed more than one coat. I ended up using three coats.

Wear:  I was able to wear it for three days with no chipping. This is really good in my case because all nail polishes I have tried chip the same day. ( I do use a base coat & a top coat)

So does it really dry quickly? A coat drys in a minute. This might vary depending on how much you put on.

So here is a swatch of the nail polish:
