Manicure Monday - Loreal Color Riche Le Vernis Vendome Emerald & Sequin Explosion !

This Manicure Monday features Loreal Color Riche Le Vernis in Vendome Emerald & Sequin Explosion


Loreal Vendome Emerald is a beautiful creamy green. I am not sure which category of green it fits into, though it is not emerald in my opinion. Its a beautiful formula and goes almost opaque in one coat. If you are a regular reader of my blog, you must be knowing I am a huge fan of this range. I love the big round brush, which makes for a quick and easy application. I love the mini size too.



Sequin Explosion is a gorgeous multicolored, multi shaped glitter. I wasn't able to capture the beauty of this polish in the pic properly. If you are a fan of glitter you need it in your life. It is so damn pretty and is perfect for accent nails or layering over other polishes. 


Priceline currently has buy one get one free on Loreal Nails and Lips in case you fancy trying this range. These retail for 7.95 AUD.

Manicure Monday - Quick NOTD with a special Guest and Merry Christmas !

This Manicure Monday is a special one as it features a special guest, my niece, Kavya. 

I have my family over for Christmas and by the time this  post will be up, we will be in Hunter Valley happily tasting wine and cheese ! 


We did our manicures to match our outfits. 
I am wearing hematite and silver jewelry, so I did a dark grey nail polish with some metallic accents. 


Kavya is wearing white shorts with a top with aqua colored prints, so her mani is in shades of aqua ..


Hope you liked this quick NOTD post. Leaving you guys with an old pic of last year with my niece. 


Merry Christmas !!

Manicure Monday - Sinful Colors 'Feeling Great'

This Manicure Monday features 'Feeling Great' from Sinful Colors. This came in my Lust Have It box that I won in a giveaway. 

Feeling Great is a bright pink rosy color, perfect for summers.  This is my first time using Sinful Colors and I pretty much liked this one. 

This polish is a nice creamy texture and showed opaque in two coats. 

  
The polish is more of deeper fuchsia as compared to  the pics. 


I am wearing two coats with a top coat. I have been loving wearing bright pinks lately. Have been wearing OPI Pink Flamenco and Feeling Great on rotation.    


Which colors have you been loving this season ?

Manicure Monday - Colorbar in 'Turquoise'

This Monday's Manicure features Colorbar nail lacquer in 'Turquoise'. 

It is a stunning turquoise color. I am wearing 3 coats and it gives opaque coverage. I am used to wider brushes, so did not like the brush.

Quality wise, I was not very impressed, my nail polish chipped the next day, but the reason may be I did a lot of housework. 


The accent nails are in Sportsgirl 'Speckled Mint'. Click HERE for the mani post.


I really tried  capturing the true colour but failed. In the pics, the polish looks too blue, in reality its a very true n beautiful turquoise..


I really like the Colorbar brand and am a fan of lots of their products. Colorbar is one of India's popular brands and is a hit with the Indian bloggers. It is not available in Australia.

NOTD - Sportsgirl Nail It in 'Bossy Boots'

Today's post is Sportsgirl NOTD post in 'Bossy Boots' with accent nail of Sports girl '100s and 1000s' featured HERE before. Bossy Boots is a gorgeous creamy purple shade. You must have seen 'Bossy Boots' featured in my HAUL previously, I bought it from Sportsgirl clearance. 

It has a fantastic creamy texture, lovely to apply, goes opaque in two coats. The mani fared well for 4-5 days with minimal chipping (with no top coat). Overall, I am very happy with this polish.

NOTD - Ulta3 Nail polish in 'Black Satin'

Today I have a mani post in Ulta3 'Black Satin'. I was never drawn towards black nail polishes, I liked them on others, but somehow I never wanted to try them on me, finally I gave in and I must say I am totally in love. I find black nail polish as powerful and sexy as red, am just loving them right now :). 

Anyways, Ulta3 'Black Satin' is  a classic black. Ulta3 polishes are smooth in applying, they have great texture and are really affordable, so what's not to love. This is two coats and a top coat. I have done an accent nail in Sportsgirl 100s and 1000s. I have previously done a dotty manicure with Ulta3 polishes, check HERE




Have you tried Ulta3? Do you like wearing black on your nails?

Then this is what I later did with my mani, just playing around n having fun with tape mani, though I admit its not as neat as I wanted it to be :) ..


Hope you enjoyed the post ..

NOTD - Loreal Color Riche in Rebel Blue

 As many of you must be already knowing I recently won Crashing Red's giveaway. So today I did my mani in Loreal Color Riche 'Rebel Blue' with an accent nail in 'Luxembourg Garden'.



Loreal Color Riche in 'Rebel Blue' is one stunning blue I must say and these nail polishes are brilliant formula to work with. The above pictures are two coats with a top coat. All in all, these polishes are lovely consistency and creamy formula. 

Have you tried these polishes ? Which is your favorite color in the whole range ?
