Essie - Tour De Finance

Such a gorgeous day in NY today. I can feel spring coming & yay that means it's ok to wear light colors on my nails! Lately I've been complaining about Essie polishes because I've been hating the consistency of them. They honestly annoy me so much. They're always streaky to me and sometimes their thick and ugh I don't know.. They haven't been my friends lately. I tried on Tour De Finance from the Spring 2012 Collection Navigate Her yesterday for the first time & I take back all the mean things I said about Essie. The application was perfect! We're BFF's again. I'm usually not a fan of fuchsia nail polishes but I really love this color even though it's not anything different. It has a shimmer to it & applied fabulously. I loves it.

Essie - A Crewed Interest

For Valentine's Day my boyfriend got me the Essie Navigate Her Spring 2012 Collection.. woo hoo!! I love all of the colors in this collection & I can't wait for Spring & Summer to come so I can wear these! A Crewed Interest is a gorgeous peach color that would look awesome with a tan :) But it looks great on right now too. I got a compliment on the color today.. It really stands out. It was a little annoying to apply, I had to use 3 coats.

My mom for Valentine's Day (we're always each others Valentines) got me the Super Orgasm set from Nars with a nail polish, blush, and lip gloss. I wanted to try out the nail polish with this color because it was some what similar, I thought they would look good together.

When I tried it on a naked nail there was absolutely no color to it, you just saw the gold sparkles. When I put it over A Crewed Interest the color in the bottle showed up on the nail. I love the polish color, salmon pink with gold sparkles. I think I'm going to try it over white next time & use 2 coats.
