Top 10 Nail Polishes for Fall (with swatches)

HELLO!

Since we are getting closer and closer to fall, the most wonderful time of the year, I thought I'd share with you some of my favorite nail polishes for this time of the year.


Below, I have swatches of 10 nail polishes, as well as their names and brands, so you can find them easily.



For some odd reason I have been really into metallic nail polishes, but I also love some good old black or white nails. I think that the prettiest ones are the OPIs, they both have shimmer of different colors and it looks amazing.

What are your favorite nail polishes for the season?

Organization: Nail Polish

HELLO!

Today I thought I would share how I organize my nail polishes, since I do have a lot and I don't have the space to have those huge nail polish racks, and it's an easy way to choose which nail polishes you, or your friends, want to use right away! :)


What I first did is I wrote down a list of all the nail polishes that I had, separating them by category, for example top coats, crackle, nail art, and I separated the colors in pinks, reds, greens, etc.

Here is my list, I also numbered them so I know how many I have and it is easier to organize them later. I decided to actually write it down by hand, but you can type it down and keep it in your computer or print it out, so you can do the swatches on the side like I did.


What I then did is I grabbed a plastic box, which is about the same size as a shoe box, and I put the polishes in the box trying my best to somehow keep the order that they are on the paper. After I filled one box, I marked down from which number it started and ended, and just labeled the box, I then filled up the other box and did the same as the first one.


How about you, are you a nail polish addict like I am?

Nails of the Week: Royal White

HELLO!

This week I was thinking of doing my nails with white nail polish, but I didn't want just the white polish, I wanted something different, then I thought of one of my favorite trendy color combiantions: white and blue! :D

So here are my nails:


Here is what I used:


The white polish is one that I got from a kit last year, and it doesn't really have a name. The blue glitter is Essie's Lots of Lux, and I used my Colorama top coat since I thought that glitter looked a bit too rough.

The Essie glitter surprised how opaque it was, it was very packed with glitter and one coat was more than enough!


What are your nails of the week?

Nails of the Week: Yellow and Pink

HELLO!

This week's nails is one of my favorite color combinations, yellow and pink! I decided to do some a little bit different, and do an accent nail. Granted that the accent nail is not very different from the others, but it is great if you want to have an accent nail but is too scared to have it in another color or completely different from the other nails. :)


These nails are super easy, and all you need is to make a straight line on top of the base nail polish! :)
I love the color combination! It's super bright and great for summer.


Here are the nail polishes I used: Colorama in Rosa Pink (which I think you can find this brand at Ricky's NYC), but any pink polish will do, this one just happened to be the most dense one that I had. And Sally Hansen's Xtreme Wear in Mellow Yellow! :)


What do you have on your nails this week?

Nails of the Week: Purple&Mint

HELLO!

I know I have been M.I.A. lately, and I am terribly sorry!
Today, I wanted to share my nails for this week! :)



I just did something simple for this week, and with my favorite color combination: purple and green! :)


Even though it looks pink in the bottle, the L.A. Girl's nail polish is more of a purple color, and it is called Lazer Beam from the Brites collections. The mint green nail polish is by Kiko in the color 389 (I think). Both of the polishes have amazing formulas, but the Kiko one is my favorite! It is super think and you can easily just put one coat and be good to go!


What are you wearing on your nails this week?

Favorite Nail Polishes: Summer

Hello!

Today I come to you with a lovely post about nail polishes! I personally get very excited!
So, I will be sharing with you my favorite nail polishes to wear during summer, both ones that I usually wear and the ones that I plan on wearing! :)

Let's get started, I decided to not include any brazillian brands, since it is quite hard for you to get a hold of! (would you like me to do a giveaway of brazillian nail polishes? I buy my favorites and give it away...)


From left to right: Blazed by Wet'n'Wild, Lazer Beam by L.A. Girl, 343 by Kiko, Big Yellow Taxi, Cupcake queen and headliner by Ciaté.
These first six polishes are just nice colors that are a bit brighter for summer! A girl always has to have a coral, a hot pink, turquoise or a green and a purple. The yellow is very specific and some people may not like it.

Left to right: 64 by coolcos, 389 by Kiko and You're such a budapest by OPI
Pastels are always summer and spring friendly and pink, acqua and violet are always cute.

L to R: Jewel, Glass slipper, magic carpet and enchanted rose by Ciaté


 Glitter is a girl's best friend and Ciaté's are my favorites! Glitter surely look perfect all year round! :)


Left to right: candyshop, prom queen, bumble bee and sundance caviar pearls by Ciaté.


 Caviar nails are simply my favorite thing in the world, but they are hard to do... But these pearls by ciaté are so pretty, I am definitely not going to be able to resist this summer!

 What are the nail polishes that you'll be wearing this summer?

I love nail polishes!

HELLO!

As you may or may not know, I am a bit obsessed with nail polishes. I have roughly 200... #addiction
So, yesterday I spotted an awesome deal. Get 3 pay 2 OPI nail polishes, that sold me right away!

Here are the polishes that I got:


This is the one that I was mostly excited for! THE liquid sand! AAAAMAZING!
It's black, with red glitters.


This is another beautiful colour. A silver with red reflections.


And finally this cute lavender color, perfect for spring, could not be left out!

I painted my nail with "The World is Not Enough"

Favorite Nail Polish (so far)

HELLO!

Today I will be telling you how much I love my new nail polish that I got as a birthday present from my friend.

First let's see this beauty!

The brand is Manhattan and the color is 78T and I believe it is from Germany. As you can see it is the most beautiful metallic blue and it is super easy to apply. The brush is just the right size.

What is your favorite nail polish?
