Revlon - Matte Pearl Glaze

Today we take a break from reviewing polishes that can be worn on their own to review one that can't. Revlon's Matte Pearl Glaze is part of their Transforming Effects line - a line of top coats to "transform your manicure" and "create unique effects." I picked up Matte Pearl Glaze solely because I was curious as to what matte pearl would actually look like. Review and swatches are under the jump.

O.P.I. - My Pointe Exactly


I mentioned in my Flower Power review that I have a fondness for milky sheer polishes. This is the polish that started that fondness. It was originally bought because I was looking for a nice light gray. It wasn't exactly what I was looking for, but it grew on me. My Pointe Exactly is from O.P.I.'s 2012 New York City Ballet collection, which was their Soft Shades collection for that year. Review and swatches are under the jump.

Orly - Saturated

This polish was shown a week ago in my Sun and Moon manicure, and is one of my personal favorite polishes. Saturated was part of Orly's Summer 2014 collection, Baked. It took me a few tries to get an accurate bottle shot of this polish. The image above was taken in direct sunlight, and it still isn't quite right. Additional bottle shots, along with my review and swatches are under the jump.

SinfulColors - Flower Power

As far as reviews go, I am two for two on the type of polish reviewed - a pink glitter from Sinful Colors. Flower Power is part of the 2015 Bloom Blast collection. Judging by their website this polish (and the other two like it from the collection) are meant to be worn as a top coat. However, I found the polish to be wearable on its own. Full review and swatches can be found under the jump.

SinfulColors - Pinky Glitter


As I am writing this, it is currently my spring break. Between marathoning Doctor Who and studying for the midterms I have after break, I needed something girly and happy to pick up my mood. Cue SinfulColors Pinky Glitter - the result of a recent drugstore run. It is the perfect combination of pink and glitter to brighten up my day. Review and swatches are under the jump.

Hello, Blog World

My name is Macie, and this is my obligatory first blog post. A little about myself - I am a current college student who is obsessed with nail polish and has been riding horses for many years. My purpose in this blog is to chronicle and review my extensive nail polish collection. I probably will occasionally stray from this to talk about things completely unrelated, as well as stopping posting completely during busy times - like midterms and finals. This blog will not only cover my reviews of polishes. I will also post manicures, my methods of organization, nail care products, and more. If you decide to follow this blog, great! I hope you enjoy the ride. :)
