Impala Saia Justa and Hits Hefesto ♥

♥♥♥

Remember I told you in this post that Saia Justa was one of my 2 favorites from the swatches on the nail wheel? Well, I just had to put it on. I also told you I wasn't changing my polish anytime soon, but yesterday I went for a walk at the beach with Nahla, and for the first time EVER I let her loose, without her leash. I was scared as hell, but everything worked out great, she had a great time, and so did I. She ran, she played with a lot of other dogs, and she went in the ocean, but because I was also playing with her, throwing her ball so she would catch, and getting in the ocean myself, I had some tip wear. I had to give her a bath, and then take a shower myself. As much as I was loving my nails, I don't like tip wear, it was minor, but I decided to take it off. 

Saia Justa's formula was great, no complains at all. It's a very bright and summery color, it's winter here, but who cares?! ♥

Tiffany Blue & Holographic ♥

♥♥

How are you doing?
Yesterday I saw this post from Hazel, and felt in love, I had to try to 'recreate' it. Well, not really recreate it, I love Tiffany blue, and my For Audrey from China Glaze is my baby, all I had to do was layer a holographic top coat over it, so I would get the holo effect and not loose the polish color.
This combo is great, and because Hefesto is a top coat, can't be worn on it's own, you get a wide range of colors to play with, I'll have to try some other colors later.
It had been a while since I didn't smudge my nails, or went to sleep with them still a bit wet and getting my sheets marked on the polish. I took a little nap last night, and when I woke up it was still completely smooth.

Dark Blue And Black Gradient ♥

♥♥

Hello my loves, today's post was one I quite loved. After I applied Colorama Quadrado Azul I thought: "Well, I need to add something to it, but what?! A GRADIENT!!". When I bought Quadrado Azul, I also bought Preto Gráfico Fosco, from the same collection, but I bought it because it's a matte black, which became a love of mine.
Looked much better in person cause you can't see the flaws, but I still love it!

Colorama Quadrado Azul (♥)

♥♥

I'm in love ♥ I just bought Quadrado Azul last night. I was looking for a new black polish, when I saw this beauty. I just HAD to buy it. But when I saw at the drugstore I didn't realize it had a silver shimmer to it.
The formula was FANTASTIC, two coats and I was done. It's very, VERY shinny, but I do love to use top coat.
I had to use photoshop to edit the color, and make it color accurate. But you can still see the shimmer.

Can you see the shimmer??

I absolutely love this color, and I might get the green one from the collection, it reminds me of OPI Who The Shrek Are You? - One of my favorite polishes ever ♥
And Colorama is SUPER cheap here in Brazil, I paid R$3,05 (real) and $1.34 in dollars, each bottle had 8ml.

Tip Top Nail Polish Review

Hello ♥♥♥

I put this post on the top of the list because it's long overdue.
I've been trying to take decent pictures of these polishes for a long time. But I wasn't being able to capture the true colors, or adjust it properly on PhotoShop. About a week ago I found some new settings on my camera, which is what I was missing to take color accurate pictures.
Tip Top is a South African polish brand.
Tip Top sent me four polishes, a base coat and a top coat for review.
The polishes are very pretty, I was in love from the moment I opened the package.
I used two coats for each of them, followed by one coat of Tip Top's top coat.
The formula on the polishes was great, no issue. The base coat was also great, and I have just a little bit left. But here's the thing about their top coat, it works great with the Tip Top polishes, but not so great with other polishes. It dried super fast with my TT polishes, but it would take forever to dry with my other polishes. Which is a shame because it's very shinny!

Let's start with Pot-O-Berries: It's a dark jelly berry pink.

Sitting Pretty: It's a neon pink. A beautiful one. I actually wouldn't call it a neon, but it's such a bright pink. It's very shinny, and it doesn't dry matte like most neons. I don't know what to call it, help me out here hahah

Furfer Girl: My favorite of the four I was sent. SG is a pretty purple with lilac/pink shimmer. Formula was a dream!! This was the polish I was having more problems to capture its true color, but good news, I did ♥

And at last, but not least Cha Cha Cha: The perfect mint green. I actually have it on right now. Unlike most mint greens, this one's formula was great, and not tricky.

The polishes are fantastic, and so are the colors.
