Nail Polish: Bobbie Solar Burst

When was the last time I had glitters on my nails? I just can't remember.
 
I been wanting to get one for myself, I wanted the imported ones but unfortunately I don't have no budget right now. I needed an alternative.


Looking at the nail care section of Gaisano Mall I found a cutie called the Solar Burst from the local brand Bobbie.


Solar Burst has a lot tiny golden specks plus bigger rounded glitters of different colors (blue, red, green and white).

 

I wanted an overly glittered nails so I applied two thick coats to capture a lot of the shining particles.


Applying them on top of Dear My Neon Nails from Etude House makes it really really pretty for me.
 

 I have no regrets getting Bobbie Solar Burst at a very affordable price of P29.75.

So What Do You Think? The glitters are unevenly distributed right? That's the art! hehehe


Nail Polish: Etude House My Dear Neon Nails

Two summer looking colors are on my nails today. These neonish colors are from the Etude House Dear My Neon Nails Collection. Actually I bought these cuties last year you can check my post here and decided to wear them on my nails these season, after all it's Summer here in the Philippines.

Warning Yellow (NBE101) and Fresh Melon (NGR701) 
 
indoor with camera flash "on"
These two colors as what the name of the collection implies are indeed so bright and eye catching so perfect for beach party.

Outdoor, shade area
I had no problem with the application using it's wide and thick brush. The formula is  quite good, although I had to apply at least three (3) coats to get the full color and opacity.
 
Outdoor direct sunlight
 Overall, whether indoor or outdoor, these two looks pretty on my nails.

And additional cuteness factor when over top by glitters. Check it out on my next post. :)

Nail Art: Floral Chic

Here's the nail art design on top of the Revlon Chic. And I'm calling this particular nail art as "Floral Chic", the reason is obvious I think.


The flower + dots were painted using acrylic paints.


These are photos taken indoor with flash "on".





And below are under the midday sun.





I think I was able to give justice to this nail art. What can you say?

Nail Polish: Revlon Chic

I purchased this nail polish back in December 2012. Robinson's Department Store was on Christmas Sale and that time Revlon products were also discounted at 25%. I bought, I think 6 bottles but on different dates just not to feel the big pocket slash, lol.

One of them is the Revlon Chic.

 

Chic is a grey blue, sea green, almost a teal blue creme nail enamel from Revlon. The formula is quite good, with just two coats you'll obtain full opacity. But I prefer a three coats on my nails for a heavy deep color.

 

These are the swatches taken indoor with flash on.


By the way I used the same nail polish for my fireworks nail art here.


These are from outdoor while the sun was shining so brightly.




For me this nail polish looks great indoor that when sun lighted, it looks dull for me.

Let's see how it will turn out with flowers over it.

Stay tuned!
