Swatch and Review: Milani Nail Lacquer for 2014 Part 1

Happy Friday, everybody! Phew! I thought this week would never end, but alas, it's here!

Today I have for you the first of four parts of Milani's 2014 collection!

Swatch and Review: SoFlaJo Sunset Grille

Hello again from Atlantic City! Today, I have for you a GORGEOUS color from SoFlaJo's Life's a Beach collection. How appropriate since I'm at the boardwalk, right?

I LOVE this color. It's a beautiful peach nail polish with subtle sparkle and applied like a DREAM. I love the fact that this color has the TINIEST hint of frost in it make it a metallic-sparkle, but just enough that it wasn't streaky.

Seriously, Jody continues to surprise me! Plus, I adore the name of this polish. It looks like the color of the sky right as the sun starts to disappear. Amazing.

The Life's a Beach polishes retail for $5 for a mini bottle like the one shown above and $10 for a full-sized bottle. There is also a discount for the full collection of minis ($40) and full-sized ($80). They can be purchased via SoFlaJo's shop page or Etsy page. Be sure to check it out!

See you all tomorrow!

Swatch and Review: Nicole by OPI Yellow... It's Me

I found this shade in the clearance bin at my local Harmons and had honestly never heard of it. My yellow drawer is quite light in comparison to the others (really, it shares its room with brown and orange), so I picked it up and thought I would give it a go.

Nicole by OPI Yellow... It's Me is a buttercup yellow with peach shimmer. It is rather opaque, so I layered two coats of it over Saint Germain Yellow Sun (stay tuned for the new SG collection tomorrow). It's very hard to see in the bottle, but the shimmer is prominent on the nail.

It was SO hard to capture the shimmer in the photos. I highly recommend that you click on the images below to see the sparkle of it better. It's like the yellow version of Sinful Colors Cinderella.

I'm not a fan of yellows, especially because they can bring out bad tones in my skin and look super gaudy. But Yellow... It's Me is an excellent shade for me because it's a little more subtle, but has a pop to it that is VERY me. It lives up to its nail!

So what do you all think? Is this your kind of yellow too?
