Whet Nail Polish Review & Pictures : Facetious

This nail polish has its pros and its cons...

PROS

- zero chipping after 5+ days

- very little wear on the tips after this time period as well

- dries quick

CONS

- streaky and sheer, needs at least 3 coats

Overall I really do like it though.  It's a beautiful color and it lasts really well. 

Have you tried this polish? What was your experience with it?

I got mine in the July Ipsy glambag.

Flower Beauty Glow Baby Glow Blush Bronze Duo BD1 Beachy Keen

If you know me, you'd know I have been in love with the Flower Beauty Blush/Bronzer in Shimmering Goddess and I've been wanting to pick up this shade in Beachy Keen for awhile, but my Walmart never has it in stock!  Last time shopping I just had to make my routine stop in the cosmetics section and saw that they had one in stock finally! Had to pick up it.

I love this little guy.  The bronzer seems to be a little more orangey than Shimmering Goddess, but the blush is perfect.  It creates just a very subtle hint of color great for those with light skin tones, like myself.  You won't go overboard with it.

I just love these little duos and I really hope they come out with more colors.

The packaging is sturdy and adorable, with a magnetic closure.

Revlon Parfumerie Scented Nail Enamel Polish Review - Wild Violets & Fresh Linen

Wild Violets
This polish is very opaque and perfect after two coats.  The first coat is very streaky and crappy, but two coats is just great with this polish.  I absolutely love this color! It is a dark dark purple, almost black.  It makes it look like you're wearing black nail polish from across the room, but when you look close, you realize it is actually super dark purple. It also has tiny shimmers in it that can help enhance the purple hue when in the sunlight.  It is just a beautiful nail polish!

Fresh Linen

This one took three coats to get it opaque and I honestly went back later on to apply a fourth coat.  That kind of sucks, but this polish is beautiful.  It's a pretty off-white pearl, but not too pearly.

In conclusion...

While applying these, they don't smell as strong of a traditional nail polish, but when the polish is still wet, it doesn't smell as great as the scent will once it's dried.  The scent is perfect on the first day, but it does fade quickly after that.  It's just a subtle scent that, with these two polishes, almost gives off a scent like you just freshly washed your hand with a scented soap.  They are both nice, fresh scents.

These polishes also last awesome on the nails!  After 7 days, there are still no chips an hardly any wear.  Love!

Loreal Colour Riche Lipstick Fairest Nude on Light Skin Review, Swatches, Pictures

This lipstick doesn't last super long, just a couple of hours before needing a touch up.

It feels very moisturizing at first, but after about an hour, me and my super dry lips start to feel uncomfortable.

The color is just awesome.  It's a perfect nude.  It's not too pinky, too brown-y, too light or too dark.

I hope these random pics helped!

Flower Beauty Line & Shine Lipliner - Toffee LP2

This one seems to be a little dry, it can tug on the lips, which can make it skip and can be somewhat difficult to apply at first, before the product has had time to warm up on the lips.  It is however very long wearing and pretty waterproof. It reminds me of the NYX Auto lip pencils a lot.
