ULTIMATE Summer Nail Polishes~!

Hey Guys~!

I went to Ulta, CVS, and Walgreens last week and I bought some new nail polishes from Essie, Wet and Wild, Sinful Colors and China Glaze. I've tried all of them out and now I'll be reviewing them here.

From Essie I got Bikini So Teeny and Beach Bum Blu. Bikini So Teeny is a periwinkle colored polish and I love it (I'm wearing it on my nails now). I put it on yesterday, without a topcoat, and it hasn't chipped at all. It has a nice shine to it without any shimmer or glitter. The other polish I got, Beach Bum Blu, is a turquoise color with tiny amounts of shimmer in it. In certain lighting it can seem more green and in others it seems more blue. Either way it's a beautiful color.

From Wet and Wild I got the Mega-last Polish in On a Trip. It's a cool  toned purple nail polish with no shimmer or dual chrome, but it doesn't have a matte finish either. The color stands out on every skin tone. I really like the Mega-last polishes because they have wide brushes which makes applying the polish much easier. Also like the name implies, this polish lasts a long time. If you want a long wearing polish from the drugstore I recommend the Mega-last brand from Wet and Wild.



From Sinful Colors I got Hazard. It's a peachy coral color and it's perfect for summer. It has a matte finish, but I put a shiny top coat on it because I think it looks nicer that way. Like most Sinful Colors nail polishes, Hazard takes a while to dry and it NEEDS a top coat (matte, glitter, etc.) or else it will chip. Besides that, Hazard is a great coral color for anyone.

From China Glaze I got Life Preserver. It's a reddish orange color. The first coat seems sheer, but after 2-3 coats it's an opaque color. I personally I only like it on my toes since I have really pale skin. If you have a deeper completion I think this color will look nice on your fingers and toes. This polish lasts really well with a top coat and doesn't chip quickly.





So there you have it, my new and favorite summer nail polishes. Tell me your favorite summer polishes in the comment box and I hope to see you all at my next post.

How To Pick the Right Face Mask for Your Skin Type~!

Hey Guys

I have exams coming up ;_;
So to help calm myself down,
I like to give myself a facial.

And that gave me the idea for this post :)
I'm going to show you guys how to find a face mask for . . .

- Dry Skin

- Oily Skin

- Acne Prone Skin

All of the masks I'll be telling you guys about can be purchased at your local drugstore or on Amazon.

Also I've tried all of them out before writing this review and I'll be giving you my honest opinions on them.

Alright, let's get started~!

For Dry Skin I recommend the Freeman Cucumber Peel-Off Facial.

I use this mask when it's cold cause my skin gets really dry then. I apply this mask after a shower usually to my face. It's a clear gel and when it dries, your skin has a plastic look to it. When I peel it off, which is my favorite part, my skin feels smooth and fresh. However if you by accident get it on your eyebrows, peeling the gel off is painful. To avoid that after applying the mask I take a wet Q-tip and rub it over my brows to remove the mask.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

For Oily Skin I recommend the Freeman Avocado and Oatmeal Clay Mask.

This mask contains vitamin E which gets rid of excess oils and helps to unclog your pores. Applying the mask is so much fun because the clay feel great when you first put it on. When it's dry and I wash it off, my skin feels clean and refreshed. Also I like that the mask doesn't dry out my skin, unlike some clay masks that make my skin dry after washing off the mask.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
For Acne Prone Skin I recommend the Freeman Dead Sea Mineral Facial.

I love to use this mask when I'm breaking out cause it soothes my skin. When you apply it it's a light blue turquoise color and it feels lighter than the Avocado Oatmeal Mask. Compared to the other two, this is the easiest to wash off.




I hoped you guys enjoyed this review

and comment for any other reviews you want to see~!
