Oooh, this is so pretty!! Orly Snow Angel, part of their Winter 2023 collection. This is such a pretty cream! It has just a touch of blue? Gray? The formula was great, no issues at all. It’s almost like a super duper pale pale blue? Like when snow kind of gets that glittery frosty crust… Read More Mainstream Mani Monday Orly Snow Angel
Slowly getting through my Zoyas! This is Esme. Kind of light coppery orangey shimmery polish. If I remember correctly, I did three coats and it was an easy formula. It’s a great fall polish (I mean, you wear whatever you want whenever, but for me this would be more of a fall shade). Then I… Read More Mainstream Mani Monday- Zoya Esme and Formula X Prismatic
This Essie is so pretty! And it’s a cream! Essie Secret Story This is a very jelly formula, isn’t it such a pretty color! And even though this is three coats, you can see a bit of vnl. More so in pictures than irl. Doesn’t this look squishy??? I love it! Just a big fan.… Read More Mainstream Mani Monday- Essie Secret Story, Orly Brittany Beach
Color Club Cherubic is a classic Color Club Halo Hues polish. It’s such a pretty champagne colored neutral holo!! I did do three coats but an easy breezy formula. I am not much of a neutral polish girl, but neutral with wow, that is awesome! See that rainbow???? Gorgeous. Then to Then to a gorgeous… Read More Mainstream Mani Monday- Color Club Cherubic, OPI Feel the Chemis-tree
Soooooo, Zoya Maddy is not at all my type of color. But Zoya got me, because my oldest daughter is named Madison, and we’ve always called her Maddy, spelled like this (often we see it spelled Maddie). So of course I had to have it. It looks okay, but dang the formula was hard to… Read More Mainstream Mani Monday- Zoya Maddy and China Glaze Guava Mama
I finally picked up Essie Ballet Slippers- if you can see the yellow sticker, I got this at Kohls for like $2, lol. So of course I got it to try. And yes, it’s streaky for sure! This is three coats- you can see some streaks on the ring finger and pinky. It’s a pretty… Read More Mainstream Mani Monday- Essie Ballet Slippers, Essie Petal Pushers, and OPI I’m in the Moon for Love
These are my only two Essie Expressie polishes in my entire collection. I got them because I saw a swatch video and really liked the colors, so I popped them into an Ulta order to get to free shipping. First is Sk8 with Destiny. A light periwinkle. It’s super pretty, but the formula was terrible,… Read More Polish I Wore- Essie Expressie- Sk8 with Destiny and Trick Clique
I’m back!! I’m going to try to be a better poster in 2024. With the death of my husband in early January 2023, it really threw off a lot for the whole year. I’m trying to get back to a more “normal” (whatever that means) life. And that life includes LOTS of nail polish! I… Read More Mainstream Mani Monday- Sinful Colors Bee Envious- Busy Being Queen and She Stings
I typically don’t do jellies, but these came in the Kelli Marissa x Orly Halloween collab, so I tried them out! First up, Oasis Jelly. Three coats and it’s a touch patchy. I’m sure if you do jelly sandwiches that patchiness goes away. Teal isn’t my favorite color, but it is a good Halloween color.… Read More Mainstream Mani Monday- Kelli Marissa Jellies
First, OPI On Pinks and Needles. I just don’t wear tons of toppers, though I do like them and trying to get better at wearing them. This was very thick. I did my best, lol. You can see the base is tinted pink, so it colors the white polish base to a light pink. See… Read More Mainstream Mani Monday- 2 Pink OPI Toppers!
