Sally Hansen Hard as Nails Xtreme Wear - Wet Cement

If you have read my blog before, you will know I am a massive fan of Sally Hansen nail polishes. You will also see, it's been some time since I have blogged.

I thought I would ease myself back into my blogging groove by sharing my NOTD with you all!

So much love for this polish right now!

If there was such a thing as a Holy Grail nail polish (is there?) for me, this would be it! This is the Sally Hansen Xtreme Wear Hard as Nails in the color Wet Cement. 

This polish lasts for days and days without chipping - it actually fades before it chips. It somewhat strengthen the nails, which is something I need and love!

It retails for around the $6 mark from all the regular places.

I am such a fan of this range - I have a few shades and absolutely adore the formula!

I Hope you have all been well and I promise I won't leave it so long between posts in the future!

Until Next Time,

Ulta3 Nail Polish Review

Ulta3 Pro Salon Manicure - from pharmacies for approx $4

I’ve heard a lot of buzz lately about the Ulta3 Pro – Salon Manicure collection, so on a recent trip to my pharmacy I decided to pick one up to try for myself. 

I picked up a nice neutral color ‘Café au Lait’ – which I adore.

The polish is not the best quality in the world, however, having said that, I have definitely used worse. The polish is extremely opaque so you really only need 1 – 2 coats, for a nice looking color.

I didn’t feel the brush provided a ‘one stroke application’ like the bottle stated, but to be honest it wasn’t a bad brush to work with either.

 

The only downside to this polish is that it doesn’t last all that long – for me it lasted a day without chipping and after 2 days I had to take it off. I used a ‘China Glaze’ base and top coat and still had the chipping problem. I feel for an event or a night out this polish would be awesome!! 

 

Has anyone tried any colors from the range that they recommend?

Until Next Time,

Australis - Nail Polish Review!

Australis Nail Color - Intense Colour with High Shine & Streak Free

I recently posted this picture on my Instagram, and received some lovely compliments on the color, so thought I would review the polish for you.  

Let me just put it out there and say it… I love Australis Products. I think they offer great quality, while staying affordable – which is something I think is fantastic.

I've had this polish for a while (It was actually a Christmas gift) However, I still really love the color. This is in the color 51059 Peek-a-boo, The purple is the perfect shade for the current gelato/pastel colors that are huge at the moment.

The polish applies so well, you really only need 2 coats and could get away with one if you were in a rush. I apply a top coat, but its purely to seal the color. It gives a lovely shine just by itself.

I was skeptical at first as it claims to be ‘streak free’ but somehow, in the drying process it just mixes together and gives you a nice professional looking finish. It is a perfect consistency also, which is something I look for in my nail polishes.

The brush is a fantastic size and really allows the polish to spread evenly. The packaging is just your average nail polish bottle, but lets be real here – you don’t really need a fancy bottle if the product is amazing.

I love this color – I am going to be so sad when it runs out, but I definitely look forward to trying more Australis Nail Polishes.

Thanks for reading!

NOTD - Hot Pink!

If you have read my blog or seen my youtube videos you will see I am currently a massive fan of all the colors that are around for spring and summer. As it was officially the start of Spring yesterday,  I decided to embrace a spring nail.

Loving a bright statement nail! 

I am loving neon/fluro colors and pink is a nice subtle (as subtle as neon can get) option when choosing a fluro color.

This polish is the color 9155 by the brand Miki. Unfortunately, I don’t know where to buy this polish as it was given to me as a gift.

It applies really well, and it’s a nice consistency. I have wore this polish before and the staying power is fantastic.

What colors are you loving for Spring and Summer?

Until Next Time
