Wet n' Wild On A Trip

Self-purchased

Wet n' Wild On A Trip is a bright, medium purple creme. It's very similar to Color Club Pucci-licious, but not as bright because it's not a neon polish. I love the color because it reminds me of jacarandas, which I really enjoy seeing bloom and scatter in the wind during spring. Anyway, I used 3 thin coats, but I think I could have gotten away with 2 thick coats. The formula was great and smooth. I didn't have any problems with the wide brush, which I love because it covered the nail so quickly! With top coat.

Thanks for looking!

Deborah Lippmann Boom Boom Pow + Avon Don't Be Jaded

Self-purchased

Deborah Lippmann Boom Boom Pow (middle and ring fingers) is a gorgeous gold glitter with a smattering of 24k gold dust. This is probably my favorite glitter topper in my whole collection, and that's saying a lot as I'm going through a massive declutter! The formula was great and easy to apply - I didn't have to fish for glitter at all. As you probably guessed, I definitely recommend this glitter.

Avon Don't Be Jaded is a jade creme. Once upon a time, I used to love this color, but not so much anymore as I much prefer nudes and taupes now. I used 2 coats. It's an old polish so the formula was a bit thick and stringy. With top coat. I'm sad to say this polish was just not my cup of tea anymore.

Julep Nedra

Self-purchased

Julep Nedra is a grey-toned, dusty blue creme. It's one of the first Julep polishes I bought after Julep changed to a breathable Oxygen Technology formula, which supposedly provides healthy and beautiful nails simultaneously. I used 2 coats. The formula was smooth and very easy to apply. I'm not sure if this is because of the Oxygen Technology formula, but it dried rubbery. I used the Oxygen Smoothing base coat and Oxygen Performance top coat, which I believe are supposed to be used in the Oxygen Technology system.

Barry M Prickly Pear

Self-purchased

Barry M Prickly Pear is a pastel-yet-bright lilac creme that's perfect for spring! In some lights, I really see the blue tone in it. I believe I used 2 coats. The formula was great and easy to apply. I like the creamy, slightly thick nature of the Gelly Shine formula, but those who prefer a thinner creme may not like the formula. It tried shiny true to its Gelly Shine name, but I still used top coat out of habit.

Thanks for looking!

La Mer

La mer: (French) noun. the sea

What I used:

OPI Thanks A Windmillion
Revlon Whimsicial (over Thanks A Windmillion on the ring finger)
Gold star stud from Born Pretty Store

I remember, two years ago, I didn't like Thanks A Windmillion when I first swatched it. Now, I really like this color! So funny how much a person can grow and change in such a short amount of time.

Thanks for looking!
