Revlon Nail Polish "Minted"

  I know mint nail polishes have been in for a while now and I had gotten this Revlon nail polish in Minted a while back but I never seemed to get around to making a blog post about it till now. I love mint nail polishes, especially this one. I'm not sure if the reason being that I love mint chocolate chip ice cream and this nail polishes reminds of that or it's just I love this color in general. I pretty much never see girls at my school or anyone around me for that matter wearing mint green nail polishes and I'm sure I wouldn't be wearing it either if I hadn't seen the hype about it in blogs or on youtube...I probably would've passed this color before but now I just love it. Now on with the actual polish itself! This polish does have a somewhat thin consistency yet it's not extremely thin. It does apply somewhat streaky which is a downfall because you have to be really careful to make it look even. It is a creme finish. It requires about 2-3 coats to be opaque which isn't a problem for me. This polish does go for around four bucks which is pricier than your regular Sally Hansen polish but it isn't too much of a stretch for me. The lasting power of this polish goes for about exactly a week which is awesome. Overall, I really like this polish and would recommend it.

Milani One Coat Glitter Polish "Silver Dazzle"



The Milani One Coat Glitter Polish has caught my eye and I really wanted to pick up a couple so I did. This was not the first one I got but it's the first one I wore on my finger nails. This one is in Silver Dazzle. I think this is a really cool glitter polish. I don’t see too many gunmetal glitter polishes which really pushed me to get this polish. I think it's really pretty and is a little rock and rollish. This isn't a springy type of nail polish but I really don't care what colors are in or out for the seasons. I think all nail polish colors can be worn year round and I will still wear this during spring/summer even though it's not the brightest or pastely polish. I think the whole one coat only thing is a gimmick. If you don't want to completely cover your nail with glitter but get close to a lot , one coat is enough. But if you want to completely cover your nail your going to need to do two coats which I did. Alot of glitter polishes take 3-4 coats to cover the entire nail so I still didn't care whether it took one coat or not. This nail polish didn't last the longest. It lasted about 4-5 days which isn't much considering most good polishes last six or seven days. I definitely did a few touch ups here and there. Overall I did like the color and I might need a better top coat so I will wear this again.
