Nail Polish Reviews

Kokie Unforgettable Pink nails are fun and feminine. I wore hot pink yesterday so I thought I would go a little softer and more girly today with Kokie Unforgettable a medium pink perfect for spring. The formula was opaque in two coats and dried to a glossy finish. It has a squishy consistency that helps camouflage imperfections on the nail which is a bonus. It's not a terribly unique color but if you are going to spend money on a pink polish you might as well get a good quali

Quo by Orly Purple Daydream On my last trip to the drug store to grab a few things Mr. Nailvanna accompanied me. He either really likes me or just wanted to make sure I did not forget to pick up a refill for his razor again. Of course the nail polish isle is mandatory because you just never know when you will find an awesome sale or something new that I ... I mean you can't live without lol. He noticed Quo by Orly Purple Daydream right away and suggested I try it. I added it

Nerdlacquer Thalia I wanted to give Nerdlacquer Thalia some time in the sun because her sister Euphrosyne brought me a lot of joy. A delicately tinted semi-sheer teal base with an abundance of turquoise-azure-violet shifting spangles with sterling flakes. Enough shimmer and tint to obscure the nail line, but this is deliberately translucent at two coats. The formula was smooth and easy to manage with no issues at all in application. I had applied the recommended two coats and

Kokie Mystic Mauve I have always liked mauve. Not crazy OMG most favorite color ever like because I reserve that for things that sparkle, but I'm definitely fond of the color. I get a lot of compliments when I wear it so that might have something to do with it. Kokie Mystic Mauve is more on the purple end of the mauve spectrum. I would even go as far as calling it a dusty purple. Two coats gave me complete opacity and my nails were glossy even before I added top coat. I had m

OPI Suzi Without A Paddle At first glance I thought OPI Suzi Without A Paddle from the newly released Fiji for Spring collection might be a dupe for Gelato On My Mind, but it's not. The colors are very similar but Suzi is definitely a brighter pastel blue. I was really hopping that Suzi Without A Paddle would have a better formula as well because Gelato was a bit disappointing. The first coat was somewhat streaky but the formula had a decent consistency so I was not worried a

Kokie Raise The Barbados After wearing lighter colors all week I was looking for something a little richer. Kokie Raise The Barbados is a vibrant grape purple. It has a formula with a great consistency that's very easy to work with. I was a bit surprised to see it dry semi matte and a lot faster than I was expecting. I was looking for a glossy manicure today but since I almost always apply top coat it wasn't a big deal. I also found that Raise The Barbados dried darker on my

China Glaze Lemon Fizz When my girlfriend pulled China Glaze Lemon Fizz out of her purse to show me what she bought I could feel my eyes narrow a little. Sure I have seen it around but when it comes to yellow polish... well we don't get along. I try to play nice but my complexion is all wrong for it. When I happen to find a shade of yellow that I can get away with the formula is a disaster. I look so much better in blue! My girlfriend was not privy to my inner monologue and a

OPI Two-timing the Zones I thought that Two-timing the Zones was a bright, happy spring pink from the new OPI Fiji for Spring collection and that it would be a fun one. I really love these vibrant shades of pink partly because it looks fabulous on just about every complexion. One of the reasons I chose Two-timing the Zones is because I thought OPI would probably slay this one. I mean they have been making nail polish since 1989... OK so it's not as long as I was originally e

Kokie Fairy Dust Sunny days call for sparkly nails. Kokie Fairy Dust is a steel blue jelly with a strong teal shimmer, and it seemed like a good choice that fit my criteria nicely. It looked pretty in the bottle but I didn't truly appreciate it until I had it on my nails. In the bottle it looks darker, almost a muted blue. Once I started working with it and discovered how light and airy it is I liked it even more. I applied three coats and followed it up with top coat. The

Nerdlacquer Euphrosyne The first time I came across Nerdlacquer polish was on Instagram and I noticed right away that she has a thing for glitter. My kind of girl to say the least... I knew once I placed an order I might have a problem because if I had one Nerd I might want them all. I can be a "little" greedy at times especially when it comes to anything that sparkles so I held off. I finally broke down when I saw her post Euphrosyne. Most of her polishes have very unique
