NOTD: China Glaze Pink Voltage

Hello everyone, Today's post is China Glaze Pink Voltage it is obviously a neon and is neon in formulation ( meaning it dries matte). I really love this color and I really wanted to keep it on my fingers forever! 


With Flash:


Overall, the only complaint I have about this polish is the application. It took almost 4 coats on each finger and that was pretty surprising even for a neon polish.
TIP: If you can't get your hands on this color try:
China Glaze: Pool Party or Shocking Pink
Sinful Colors: Pink or 24/7 (both available at Walgreens)

NOTD: Orly Rage

This color is a cult classic and in the mist of the Black Friday craze I was just grabbing and buying! It was a bit harder to apply than I expected took 3 coats when a lot of the time metallics can sneak by with just one. A lot of people say that this is a true rose gold polish but I think it could be more rosy for a true rose gold and leaned more towards the gold side.Overall though this color is beautiful and I really enjoyed having it on my nails.

NOTD: Essie Your Hut or Mine

Hi everyone!
Today's post brings us a gorgeous rosy pink color! When I first saw this color I wasn't sure about it but it was $3.99 at TJ Maxx so I had to get it and once I got it on my nails I was impressed! Really like the formulation and the color is really perfect for all seasons! :)

NOTD: China Glaze Frostbite and Pizzazz

I got these two colors in a holiday set this week from Sally Beauty Supply. The set of two was $8.99! The bright blue is Frostbite and is actually apart of their permanent collection while Pizzazz the glitter polish is limited edition! I think this is a great festive color combo :)

DUPE ALERT: For Audrey vs I Need a Re-Freshmint



This has to be my closest dupe that I have found. When it is on my nails there is absolutely no difference in the two colors. I need a Re-Freshmint is another Wet N Wild Mega Last polish and I just can't get enough these mainly because the application is so amazing an easy. On my middle nail I am only wearing one coat!
& What makes this the best dupe is the price difference! For Audrey $6.50 and Wet N Wild $1.99

Overall, I much prefer the Wet n Wild color! :)

NOTD: China Glaze Secret Peri-wink-le

 If you couldn't tell by my background I really like this color and I have been eyeing it for ages! It is a cream periwinkle and it is so bright it seems like it is glowing!


The application of this color was pretty good. It seemed a little thick at times but nothing too bad. All in all I am so happy I got this polish! :)

NOTD: Wet N Wild Disturbia

Although the name seems like this should have been a Pre- Halloween post, the color is great for the fall! This color is a dark creme purple and is opaque in two coats! It is one of those colors that is so dark it looks black often and one of my favorites!




So I have had a few of these Wet N Wild Megalast nail polishes and they are absolutely INCREDIBLE! The brush is curved and it makes the application process very easy and mess free. I would definitely recommend these polishes to anyone but especially to beginners! 
&&an extra bonus they are SO inexpensive $1.99 :)

NOTD: China Glaze Ingrid

I don't know about you but I love China Glaze polishes. This one I just recently purchased and I just couldn't wait to try it out! It is a light brown with gold micro glitter! It totally reminds me of Hot coco in  the light and is a great unique color for fall. :) It also reminds me of one of my favorite beauty gurus Missglamorazzi! :)
