Forever 21 Pink Blossom

Self-purchased

 

Forever 21 Pink Blossom ("Blossom" on the tag) is a warm, bright pinky-coral textured creme. There's also a very subtle silver shimmer that disappears once on the nail. I used 3 thin coats because thicker coats wouldn't have dried well or become textured, making the application tricky. It also doesn't level at all. Definitely an unforgiving formula! The chunky brush handle and fluffy brush didn't mitigate the application problems either. Unlike the Milani creme textures, this one had a much smoother texture. The dry time was average. I didn't use a base and top coat. As you can see, I'm pretty half-and-half on this one. The color is very pretty, but the polish can be a pain to apply.

On another note, I don't think Forever 21 polishes are going by the name "Love & Beauty" anymore (as evidenced by Pink Blossom's bottle). They recently revamped their polish line, and are now using square bottles and round/fluffy brushes. I much prefer their old line because the bottles were easier to hold and put away and the brushes were much better.

Thanks for looking! See you on the other side of the day!
