This is one of Zoya’s Pixie Dust textured polishes. It’s a beautiful light blue! I love the look of the Pixie Dusts when they’re not topcoated, they look so cool! You can see the texture in these picture. If you don’t topcoat, you will get some weird dirtiness after a couple days, these polishes tend… Read More Mainstream Mani Monday- Zoya Bay
I pulled out an Orly polish, Off Beat, and it totally has UBS (ugly bottle syndrome). I had never used a polish with such bad UBS, but I’ve always heard it doesn’t affect the polish, so I thought it would be good to try it for myself. The white at the bottom half of the… Read More Mainstream Mani Monday- Orly Off Beat
This polish was from the 2014 Gwen Stefani collection. It’s a really pretty purple polish. I actually found this randomly at a Dollar Tree, so that was awesome! This is a great blue leaning purple (blurple). The formula was great. It’s a scary cream, lol, but I didn’t have any issues and thought it looked… Read More Mainstream Mani Monday- OPI I Carol About You
I got a couple of the China Glaze OMG Flashback polishes on clearance at Ulta, and boy are they great! This is BFF on the left and IDK on the right. Both polishes were easy to work with.

I had heard about these Sally Hansen Insta-dri Crayola polishes, but hadn’t picked any up until I saw these cool metallic polishes! So I found these on a weird end-cap at my Walgreens, and I picked up 3 of them. First up is Metallic Sunburst. It’s a great gold, definitely a yellow-y gold (as opposed… Read More Mainstream Mani Monday- Sally Hansen Metallic Crayola Polishes!
Here’s my last (but definitely not least) Grinch polish from China Glaze! And it’s my favorite! Because of course the hot pink. I had swatched the other polishes, then had tragic nail breaks on both middle fingers. So here’s the shorties! This was a super easy polish to work with, 2 easy coats, and this… Read More Mainstream Mani Monday- China Glaze Who Wonder

I got 4 of the Grinch Who Stole Christmas polishes, and I wanted to share 3 of them. So from my least favorite, Deliciously wicked- this was a tough formula, and I didn’t love the finished product up close. It was okay, here’s a closeup so you can kind of see- it was a little… Read More Mainstream Mani Monday- China Glaze The Grinch Who Stole Christmas polishes!
This is polish was from OPI’s Hawaii collection for spring/summer 2015. It’s called This Color’s Making Waves. It’s a really pretty polish! It’s a multi-chrome polish, and has that thin multi-chrome formula, so I did 3 coats. It was a really easy formula to work with, not too thin so it floods the cuticles.… Read More Mainstream Mani Monday- OPI This Color’s Making Waves
