Review: Essie VAN D'GO

hey dolls..
i'm lovvvin this nail polish right now.. just got it at Ulta the other day !

ESSIE: Van D'go

This is a gorrrgeous coraly/pinky color~ Perfect for the summer!
It's a bright color but still very wearable & appropriate for a work place! Check it out :)
It applies very smooth, not streaky at all. Put on 2 coats and you'll get the exact color that's shown through the bottle! There are no shimmer/glitters in it at all, its just a very milky/creamy looking color! (The creamy, no shimmer nail polishes are my faves!)
It may chip in a few days so make sure you use a good top coat (I highly recommend Seche Vite top coat!! It's freekin awesome~)

Ps...
Here's a 20% off coupon for Ulta so you can get 20% off this nail polish!


What is your fave nail polish of the moment?! Leave me a comment below so I can try it out :)

Review: 99cents Essence Nail Polish

hey guys..
so today i'm going to review these nail polishes i found at Ulta the other day

They are by a brand called "Essence" not "Essence of Beauty" like the brushes lol..kind of confusing isnt it?
So these are ONLY 99cents at Ulta!! I believe this is a newer brand. They have a small section of makeup & everything is soo cheap... i was kinda of hesitant to try some of the stuff but i just got 2 nail polishes and a liquid eyeliner all for under $5!

Here's what the nail polishes look like...


I got a white-ish color & a light pink-ish color because i had an interview & needed a neutral/professional looking color! But there was some gorgeous colors there... a coral color, lavender, bright greens, blues, pinks, etc.
I wasn't expecting much out of them but they're actually not bad at all! What i love about them is that the brush is quite thick so it is very easy to apply and comes out not streaky at all!! For a 99cent nail polish that is an amazing quality.

The white-ish color & light pink color i got are quite sheer but after about 2 coats the color comes out quite true.

Sorry guys i didn't take a picture of when i applied it..:( but trust me .. for 99cents they're pretty good... better than spending 8-9dollars on an OPI one!
