Essie Bahama Mama Swatch + Review

Happy Lunar New Year Everyone!

I have Essie Bahama Mama to show you today. I rarely wear darker colors so this was new to me, and I have to say, I really really like it.



 It's a oxblood type color that was popular a few years ago.


I really love the color, don't really love the formula. It was really streaky on the first coat. The second coat covered pretty well, but under sunlight, it was easy to tell see that there were patches (pointer finger).


I used two coats for the pictures above. I also made the mistake of wrapping the tip before my second coat of polish, which is why there's excess polish at the tip. hehe oops.  

Overall: love the color ( I've already worn it twice), the formula is a bit tricky, but I'm sure I'll get the hang of it. 

Thanks for reading and have a great week!

Back..With New Stuff

Hello Everyone!

I hope everyone had a wonderful holiday season.
Over the past few months, I've accumulated some exciting new things (mainly things I've wanted for a while..).



On the left is Bahama Mama (which I have wanted ever since it came out) and the right is No More Film. I have yet to try No More Film, but I will soon.


I got the cuticle oil because I lost my Burt's Bees Cuticle Cream :( and I wanted to try it. I actually really like it. It really does smell like apricot!


As you can see, I went through an Essie phase.. hehe.


I love watching Julie G's videos and she always talks about Jet Set, so I wanted to give it a go (so far so good).





I want to try and do some nail art... hopefully sometime in the near future.


Butter London British Racing Green, another color I've wanted for a while. Sally Hansen White On and Black Out, always good to have basics.

Hopefully you all enjoyed this post. My class schedule isn't as packed this semester, so hopefully I'll be blogging more.

Thanks for reading (and patiently waiting for new posts)!
