Color Show Polka Dots - Swatches and Review

Hey Guys!

In today's post I have 3 colors from the new Maybelline Color Show Polka Dots collection. I picked up the 3 of these that I was really interested in. I'm never really much of buying an entire collection when I know I'm not gonna wear some of it... so here we go!

Drops of Jade. 3 coats. Black and white polka dot glitter with white and black medium hex glitter in a mint jelly-ish base. I really love this one. This is my favorite of the 3 that I have. I could have gotten away with two coats, but I decided on 3. This was surprisingly really easy to work with!

Pretty in Polka. 3 Coats. Same glitter as Drops of Jade in a magenta jelly base. Another one whose formula is awesome. The magenta is really pigmented and gorgeous. Really love this one for summer!




Blue Marks the Spot. 4 coats. Light blue jelly with the same glitter as the others. This one was the problem child of the ones that I got. This was super sheer. This is 4 coats and as you can see, you can definitely still see my nails. The glitter isn't the problem in this one, just like its not in the others.... the base color is. I'm really disappointed with this one :(


Overall, the glitter in this is nice, spreads easily. I didn't have much of a problem with bald spots or the glitter bunching. It spread evenly and covered well. I really liked these... except for Blue Marks the Spot... I will probably pick up 2 more from this collection that I kind of have my eye on.

2 Summer Coral Polishes

Hey guys!

Its almost summer!!! I'm loving neons and summer colors, especially because its been really really hot in LA lately. Sunny So-Cal... woo?

Anyways, Today's post is 2 of my favorite coral polishes I just picked up recently. One of them is a really close dupe to my ALL TIME favorite toe color for summer. Here's the pictures:

Direct Sunlight

Natural Light, Shade

Bikini by Julie G. 3 coats. Holy hell, neon! I don't usually like neon pinks or corals on my fingers, and this color isn't an exception. This is basically gonna be a toe color, and its a really close dupe for China Glaze Flip Flop Fantasy, though this seems a tiny bit more pinky. Formula was pretty good, but as usual it dries to a matte finish, so topcoat is necessary

Direct Sunlight

Natural Light, Shade

Maybelline Color Show in Coral Crush. 2 Coats. This is a really pretty true coral polish. Again, this is a color that I'll get more use out of on my toes rather than my hands, but its so pretty and I think its perfect for my toes!

I'm loving the coral trend and I'm excited to wear these on my toes if I can ever manage to pry Flip Flop Fantasy off my toes (I just love it too much!)
