Manicure Monday - Chanel 'April' revisited

This Manicure Monday features Chanel April as the base and accent nails and tips using Essence Sneezy.

I absolutely love Chanel April. This is the only Chanel polish I own. I love the texture, the packaging, the application and the brush OMG, its a fault free brush .. See the Chanel April previous mani HERE.
 

Essence Sneezy is a gorgeos brown color with subtle silver glitter. Its a nice creamy texture. Check the Essence Sneezy previous mani HERE.

Manicure Monday - Essence Sneezy and Sportsgirl Bossy Boots

I have been recently obsessed with nail polish and so will u have noticed from my recent Manicure Monday posts.I am hopeless when it comes to nail art stuff, and am gradually trying to experiment a bit and try the easy ones :) 

So this is, what I was sporting last week and was quite happy with how it turned out :) Not sure though what this mani is called, its probably a twist on the French Manicure. 

I wore Essence 'Sneezy' from the limited edition Snow White collection, as my base color and did the 'V' with Sportsgirl 'Bossy Boots'.

Sneezy, is a gorgeous brown color, though it does not look that good on my skin tone. Bossy Boots is a fave, its a bluish purple color, featured here and here before.

Hope you liked the manicure. BTW, I am obsessed with knuckle rings, in case you are curious, these are from Diva.

Review - Essence Gel EyeLiner in Berlin Rocks (03)

Essence Gel Eyeliner in Berlin Rocks (03)

Essence Gel Eyeliner in Berlin Rocks (03)  (no concealer, no mascara, no primer)

I see myself sporting color easily in the form of eyeliners. I wear different colors ranging from black, brown, grey, navy, turquoise, jade green, purple, plum, gold, copper, etc. Eyeliners are a quick and easy way to dress up your eyes :)

So lets get to the point, today I review 'Essence Gel Eyeliner' in Berlin Rocks (03). 
I really like this product. I love the texture, application, pigmentation and the longevity of the product. This eyeliner is waterproof, and stayed on me for more than 12 hours. The formula is super creamy. I cannot compare it with any high end gel eyeliners as I haven't tried any. But if I compare it with Maybelline, I definitely find this better on formula, staying power & price.

I am pretty impressed with Essence Gel Eyeliner and I suggest all gel eyeliner lovers should give it a try (it doesn't hurt with the price). I will definitely be trying out more Essence products.
