Nails

Yesterday I received a package from Milani that had a ton of goodies for me to play with.  So naturally, right when the FedEx man handed it to me, I tore open the bad boy…I may or may not have shut the door without any regard to the FedEx man… I AM SO SORRY ;__; but I couldn’t help it!  I really wanted to play with all that makeup! So, after I got everything settled, I decided to play with the nail polish first since I had already done my makeup for the day and my nails were in terrible need of a makeover.  The teal color caught my eye instantly since green is such an in color this season.

I was a little hesitant to try Milani’s nail polish out since I had a bad experience with them before (but seriously, that was over five years ago).  Let me tell you, I was super surprised! Fresh Teal is super opaque, I achieved full coverage in one coat but I ended up doing two as usual because come on,why do just one when you know that two will look even more amazing?  The brush is pretty full so it was easy for me to apply–I actually didn’t get any nail polish on the skin around my nails, WOOO!

So more about the color.  Fresh Teal is pretty much a true teal color.  It’s not too blue or to green, although when I was photographing my nails it came out super blue in the pictures but I blame that on my yellow light.  It dried into a surprisingly matte finish, but you can’t really tell in the photos because I have a clear top coat which added some shine.  It’s been on my nails for 24 hours now and it’s staying on pretty well, I have a small chip on my left thumb nail but I’m pretty sure that’s just because I’m clumsy and probably nicked it on something while it was drying yesterday.  I am so glad that Milani’s really brought up their game on their nail polish line, especially since they are super affordable!  I usually find these at around 3 dollars at Target, and if you keep an eye out on the weekly adds for drugstores, Milani is always having sales on their products.

See! It looks blue! But that’s just because of the lighting.
