Daily Polish

Sorry for the lack of posts!
I had to work extra hours this week making me super exhausted!

Anyway, last night I decided to do my nails and I like it so much that I thought I would share!


I am predicting that sky blue is going to be a huge color this spring/summer season. Let's see if it comes true!



I bought this nail polish (along with a beige/brown one) randomly while buying some clothes. The color popped out at me. I especially love that there is no glitter or shimmer. Usually I find that cheap nail polishes tend to add glitter/shimmer because it makes the color prettier. Making a pretty creme nail polish is tough stuff.
For $2.80 I was willing to take the plunge and try out Forever 21 nail polish.
I found NO application problems! The brush was good too (not streaky)! Normally I apply just 1 thick layer of polish. If its too sheer then I'll add another coat. This polish wasn't really sheer though.
Color is called "dusty blue". I don't know if you can find it in stores...but worth a try! I've seen a lot of other pretty colors too!

I also wanted to rave about 2 other nail products that I can't live without.


For some reason my nails are ALWAYS chipping and I never could grow them out because they were too weak. I do own some other Sally Hansen treatment polish that's supposed to "strengthen" my nails and another that's supposed to make them grow faster..but both were failures.
Then on a trip to Walmart I spotted this polish for only $2. I figured I would try it out and see if it works.
Much to my surprise...it is AMAZING!
Not only do my nails not chip or feel weak...but this treatment polish doesn't peel off which I find my other Sally Hansen treatments are prone too.
I'm SOOO glad I purchased this! For only $2 too!!!


Now that I find myself applying a new polish shade every 3-4 days or so..I find that quick drying drops are seriously a necessity.
I am SUPER impatient when it comes to applying polish. I cannot wait for it to dry and I ALWAYS end up messing up or getting blanket/hair/etc. marks allll over.
These quick drying drops I bought in Korea from the company Aritaum (for $3) is the answer to my impatience.
You apply 1-2 drops on top of the nail after the top coat to help speed up drying.
They don't magically dry your nails..but they cut down the time by A LOT.
I know Essie and OPI both make drying drops and if you are like me I highly recommend drying drops!

I hope this helped :)
I will post again very soon to make up for my lack of posts.


Cheers!
