Love & Beauty - Forever 21 Polishes - Gorgeous glitters!

Long time no blog. :(  I have been a busy bee! This is going to be a short one too.  Pics mostly.  

I picked these up at Forever 21 a month or so ago.  I love that they have affordable and totally trendy polishes for a super thrifty price.  These remind me of something Deborah Lippmann would put out and then Revlon would knock off..  ;) I've never had an issue with coverage or application and I just built these puppies up with about 3-4 coats and then topped with SV.  The only complaint I have about Love & Beauty polishes are their boring generic names.  Yaaaawn!

Here they are:

Have you tried Love & Beauty polishes?

Until next time  ☺

Forever 21 Nail Polishes - Sea Foam and Light Yellow

I went on a little bit of a bender the last time I went to Forever 21 with only the intention to pick up an accessory or 2.  Fortunately for my wallet, Forever 21's Love & Beauty brand is wonderfully cheap and I had some cred left over on a gift card, so the 7 polishes I bought didn't hurt one bit.  You can find Forever 21 polishes in their polish bins @ a store near you or online here: Forever 21

Here's a couple for you:

Seafoam  - This was 4 coats in order to reduce the VNL.  No top coat.  Love the shimmer! Reminds me of butter London's Victoriana.

And here's Light Yellow.  4 coats again, no top coat.  Also super shimmery...reminds me of an egg yolk.

What do you think?  You can't beat such cool colors for under $3.00.  It's practically unheard of!!!  I also picked up Confetti Crush which I am dying to use in a jelly sandwich, if only I could find the right color to sandwich it in.  I guess you'll have to wait and see what I choose.  Suggestions are welcome.  :)

Until next time.

New Year's Eve NOTD - Love & Beauty's Rust

Blogfest carries on tonight with a NOTD <--click that I am wearing as I type this.  A lot of gals may not be aware of this, but Forever 21 has a fierce line of nail polish called Love & Beauty.  Not only do they have great colors and endless choices, but they are cheap cheap cheap cheap CHEAP! $2.80 cheap. In addition, you can find their vast collection on their website Forever 21.  On my last spree at Forever 21, thanks to a b-day gift card from my super intelligent friend, Tanya, I scored a couple of beauties and Rust was one of them.

In this NOTD I used Love & Beauty’s Charcoal as a base (which also has tiny blue micro glitter in it) and then layered 2 coats of Rust over it and the result was sparkly, glittery madness, perfect for New Year’s Eve! I don’t know about you, but I have not seen a glitter polish in this color before. It is so special and different. I love hexagonal glitter and this one sure does deliver.

Well I hope you enjoyed my NOTD and hope that you have super sparkly nails for the New Year too!

Until next time… or next year…
