NOTD: Sally Hansen Insta Dri x Jelly Belly Nail Color in Buttered Popcorn

Three coats of Sally Hansen Insta Dri x Jelly Belly Nail Color in Buttered Popcorn. Milky Yellow Crelly w/ Gold Glitter.

OMG babes this shade is TDF!

Buttered Popcorn is such a fun neutral shade w flare that feels so fresh for spring! At one coat you can use it as a confetti-like topper over another base shade; but at three coats you get this glam opacity! The formula here is good - drying fast between layers so application doesn't feel gloppy; while the combo of pale yellow + glittering gold perfectly captures the look of yummy, scrummy, buttery popcorn!

What nail color are you rocking for #ManicureMonday?

NOTD: OPI Infinite Shine Nail Lacquer in Princesses Rule!

Three coats of OPI's Infinite Shine Nail Lacquer in Princesses Rule! Sheer Baby Pink with Glass Flecks.

Are you swooning as much as I am right now? Like OMG

Princesses Rule! is the type of girly hue that will make you instantly feel like a Disney Princess. The shade is just so effervescent and bubbly that you can't help but to feel like a royal! This one is incredibly sheer at coat one; however, it builds beautifully to the opaque pretty you see here. Be mindful of dry time - since you're applying three coats, you do have to allow a longer amount of time for drying...but it's worth it!

NOTD: Sally Hansen Insta Dri x Jelly Belly Nail Color in Coconut

Two coats of Sally Hansen Insta Dri x Jelly Belly Nail Color in Coconut. White Creme.

Y'all know how much I love white creme polishes, so obvs Coconut was the first shade from this collection on my radar; but omg babes what. a. letdown.

Here's the sitch, Coconut is a runner, and wanted nothing more than to flood my cuticles; but what was worse than the formula itself was the brush. Tbh it drips an obscene amount of excess polish onto the nail, and creates a huge, gloppy mess. My advice: wipe the brush {from the stem/handle, all the way down to the brush head} as much as possible before applying, otherwise application is a nightmare.

Color-wise though...I l-o-v-e. Opacity is reached in two coats, and the color is bright and long-lasting {no chips in 6 days!}. Nevertheless, I'd say this one is a pass due to the application issues. Womp womp.

NOTD: OPI Classic Nail Lacquer Collection in Berlin There Done That

Two coats of OPI's Classic Nail Lacquer Collection in Berlin There Done That. Taupe Greige Creme.

Okay, not my typical nail go-to; but this one caught my eye and I had to give it a shot!

Berlin There Done That is one of those ultra-chic nail colors that works as a neutral, but feels just the tiniest bit more edgy. The formula her was perfect - being the ideal density and consistency for two easy swipes and a top coat that lasted well over a week. Highly recommend this one for sweater weather and beyond!

OPI Spring 2019 Tokyo Collection Mini Infinite Shine 5 Piece Set Swatches + Review

I'm obsessed with all of the Tokyo things, so finding out that OPI was feeling Tokyo for Spring 2019? Obvi one of the most exciting things eva! I immediately grabbed the Spring 2019 Tokyo Collection Mini Infinite Shine 5 Piece Set, which includes the 3 colors you see above in addition to OPI's Infinite Shine ProStay Primer {base coat} and Infinite Shine ProStay Gloss {top coat}; which, if you haven't tried them, are the best base and top coat on the market {they've been my go-tos for years!}. Check out my thoughts on this fab five below!

Samurai Breaks A Nail is a Bright Purple with Blue and Red Microshimmer. Talk about a gorgeous color! Samurai Breaks A Nail is one of the v few purple hues that has ever caught my eye; but that blue and red microshimmer throughout is on another level. Not gonna lie here, the formula is quite thin, so you def need a triple layer to keep it from looking patchy; but that little bit of extra effort is 100% worth it. Must have! This is 3 coats.


I'm On a Sushi Roll is a Teal Creme. I've been on a pink-to-dark-berry binge lately, so I was super excited to try this bright beauty on for size - and not just because the name is tdf! I'm On a Sushi Roll is a must. have. for the warmer months! The bright tone is eye-catching + playful; while the formula is the absolute bomb to work with! Not gonna lie, it's thinner than I expected so you def need at least two coats; but the pigmentation and staying power make it so worth it! This is 2 coats.


Another Ramen-tic Evening. Pink Lilac Creme. Can we just take note of the fact that OPI went hard with the names of these polishes when they created this collection? Like wowza I dig it! Another Ramen-tic Evening is billed as a dusty rose creme; but it def reads more pinky lilac on the nail - which I absolutely l-o-v-e for spring! The formula here is a liiittle runny, but still incredibly easy to work with, and v easy to build. If you were a fan of OPI's Getting Nadi On My Honeymoon you'll love this one! This is 2 coats.


AVAILABILITY: Ulta.

PRICE: $25.00 for the 5PC Mini Set; $9.75 for each full-size bottle.

NOTD: OPI Disney's The Nutcracker and the Four Realms Nail Lacquer Collection in Lavendare To Find Courage

Two coats of OPI Disney's The Nutcracker and the Four Realms Nail Lacquer Collection in Lavendare to Find Courage. Light Pink Lavender Creme.

I've been craving pastel polishes lately, and this pretty instantly caught my eye!

Lavendare to Find Courage is a oh-so-necessary-for-spring shade that is identical to the color seen in the bottle. IMO it leans more pink than lavender; but either way it's a stunning shade that you don't want to miss. Formula is fab! This bad boy has the potential to be a OCW if you use a heavy hand - I went lighter in my application, so used two. If you dig ultra-feminine shades this one is calling your name!
