Coral Comparison

Well it's officially spring! Here's some coral colors to brighten your day :) All of these are JUST ONE COAT!

Pointer - "Lunch at the Delhi" by OPI
I like this color, but am just not loving it. Maybe I've gone too glitter crazy and this is more creamy, but it boarders on mauve which I seriously dislike. It had good application and average dry time. 3.5 Blings

Middle - "Crushed" by Sally Hansen Xtreme Wear

Pics do not do this justice. It is very shiny with deep color that sucks you right in. Good application, moderate dry time, stunning! 4.5 Blings!

Ring - "Caribbean Coral" by Sally Hansen Xtreme Wear
Very similar to "Crushed" but a bit darker and creamy instead of shiny. Super opaque, easy application, great color, very nice. 4 Blings

Pinkie - "Peach Perfection" by LoveMyNails
This one was $1 at Walmart :) It dried the fastest, but was a bit streaky and is more of a pink than coral, but it is beautiful. I haven't liked this brand in the past so was hesitant on adding this one, but it is worth it's careful application and is very opaque- for such a light color this is saying something. Very shiny and a perfect spring pink. 4 Blings

Claire's Matte Top Coat

These are some older pics of Hard Candy - Sweet P and Opi - My Chihuahua Bites with NYX - Red Glitter. With Claire's Matte top coat. This is the only matte top coat that I have tried so far. I really like it! It dry's fast and wears hard as nails! What are your favorite matte top coats? 4.5 Blings

New Rite Aid Displays

New Limited Edition Sally Hansen Insta-Dri's. Some of these look very similar to other Insta-Dri colors, however a couple are different- like the mango color for example.


We have never seen these before! Color Fever by petites- does anyone know about these? Are they any good?

WetNWild icon eye shadows. These are beautiful!

Prestige Cosmetics Limited Edition Eye Shadows. The colors aren't that original, but they would look great for Patty's Day.

All in all we are loving Rite Aid!

Lava Hot!

This is "Lava" by Hard Candy, and it is red hot! Flaming Red/Orange with yellow shimmer that is sure to catch attention. Love it, love it, love it! What more can I say? 5 Blings

OPI Look Alikes

Over at Right on the Nail I was looking at the OPI Hot & Spicy Pics and was thinking hmmm, I think I have one just that color. So I pulled out "My Chihuahua Bites" and I think they are Dupes. What do you guys think? My Pics were all taken outside so the color came out a little light. This was three coats. 3.5 Blings

Oh, and I think that I caught that Glitter Bug from Manicured Manatee. It seems to be going around. This is two coats of NYX - Red Glitter (looks orange to me). Over my Chihuahua Bites. I think this looks really HOT! 4 Blings

Hot Polish!

The first picture is Milani "Juicy Glo" by itself- 5 whopping coats and it's still slightly transparent. It also took forever to dry, but a Poshe' top coat set it nicely after the last coat. The color is out of this world, so it is worth the effort, but next time I'll layer a more opaque orange underneath. 4.5 Blings

The second picture is after adding two coats of Sinful Colors "Smoking Hot". This shimmery glitter looks much more flashy than the picture and dries fast (thank heavens after the above 5 coats!) This combo also gets 4.5 Blings.
