Essie Nail Polish


There’s a huge hype going on about Essie Nail Polish and although I am not thaaaat into nail polish I wanted to try it out. To me usually the color is the most important thing when it comes to nail polish, I just love cute pastels! That’s why I bought Sugar Daddy and Go Ginza, each 7 €, which I already find pricey for nail polish.
I was a bit disappointed with Sugar Daddy because it turned out just to be a clear french-manicure-type of nail polish, too bad I didn’t know that! It’s honestly just very clear. Go Ginza on the other hand is super pretty:
I love pastel purple and this looks slightly pink even, just perfect! The application was ok, nothing groundbreaking, need two coats for it to look nice! It dries reasonably fast. Only problem is that it already started to vanish on the third-fourth day, well just at the top, probably because I just do a lot like washing dishes were this just happens! I am satisfied with Go Ginza but I’m not sure whether I will be buying more Essie nail polish because there are cheaper alternatives, I’ll probably be just looking for dupes of certain shades!

Find of the Day: H&M Nail Polish


Just one quick look at what you can find for just 1€ if you look really hard, super cute nail polish from H&M in a strong red with red and gold glitter particles, reminds me of christmas! The color is called “Je t’aime”
I only applied ONE layer and they already look like that, opacity is really nice. Can’t say anything about it being long-lasting because I just applied it right now..

Review: LAQA & CO Nail Polish Pen


I ordered this Laqa & Co Nail Polish Pen from Asos.com for 9,74 €, a discount from the original 14,28 €. The idea of having a pen in my purse that I can apply nail polish with seemed very practical to me, and the colors were also very pretty.
I got tweedledee, which is not pictured there!
The packaging is super cute! To apply the nail polish you just have to press the button for it to pump the polish into the brush at the top! Sounds pretty simple right?
It was not so easy because the right dosage is so difficult to estimate. Usually when I press the button way too much nail polish comes out an I have difficulties painting my nails evenly… And the color although cute (I like pale corals) is only really pretty after the second layer. It drys pretty fast though, so that’s a plus!
So it is practical and cute but the quality of the nail polish itself is not that great. A fun gimmick but won’t buy again!
