Pacifica 7 Free Nail Polish Review | 2014 Blogger Challenge

Hello gorgeous readers! The topic for the 2014 Blogger Challenge this time around was to review something so I decided to review something I received in my September Ipsy Glam Bag! This is the Pacifica 7 Free Nail Polish in Red Red Wine and I've been absolutely loving it!

Right: Two Coats

I did not expect to love this nail polish as much as I did. I absolutely loved the color because I surprisingly don't have anything like it and it's perfect for the Fall season, but I assumed it would just be your standard nail polish. I was wrong! Now I'm not too sure if it's all of the colors in the range or just this one, but this nail polish lasts on the nails without chipping for ages! It lasted on my nails with a base and top coat for about 5 - 6 days which is amazing for me! Most nail polishes only last about 3 - 4 days before majorly chipping on me, including Essie polishes.

The color is a gorgeous wine-y red (as the name would suggest) and I'd go so far as to say that it leans towards that "ox blood" color that is ever so popular around the holiday seasons. It goes on quite smooth, there isn't much of a fuss about it, so this gets a big thumbs up from me! The range is $9.00 a pop and I'll definitely be purchasing more to test them out. :) If you'd like to take a look at the range or purchase any of the nail polishes, you can pop into your local Target or go to their website!

NOTD | 2014 Blogger Challenge

Hello, hello! I present to you Topic 5 for the 2014 Blogger Challenge! Nude colors are in this season and I thought I'd hop on the bandwagon! :)

Unfortunately, I am not one of the gifted nail gurus, so when I can, I get my nails 

done at a local salon a few weeks ago and this has been my current nail since. :) 

I went for a "claw" style acrylic with a nude gel polish. This particular nude is 

perfect for my skin tone; it's a mocha-nude with a slight pink undertone.

The polishes at the salon are numbered so I may be wrong, but I'm pretty sure this is Nail Harmony Gelish Soak Off Gel in Ivory Coast. Below are some nail polishes I found online that look similar to this color.
