Sugar Coat Nail Polish, a Sweet Treat?




I have always been a fan of fun unique nail polish. From glow in the dark to scented.. fun nails.. are well, FUN! So when I was introduced to the notion of textured nail polish a few thoughts came to mind. 1.) I actually though I created textured nail polish... well I did... I painted my nails with glitter than painted a coat on top. Voila! 2.) My idea failed.. they snagged were kinda dull looking and took away the purpose of the glitter... 3.) I was hoping it'd be a lot less expensive than caviar nails....

Enter Sally Hansen "Sugar Coat" I line of textured nail color. I purchased my first two colors at Target... and couldn't wait to try them. My 1st conquest was Bubble Gum

A bluish pink than some may call a purple... GREAT color pay off with even ONE coat.. It also dries VERY fast... I wanted to love this product.. but it brings me back to the textured nail polish I created... It's a cool idea but needs some work. 1.) The textured bits.. or the "sugar coat" is DULL the bits don't shine twinkle or look anything interesting weather you're up close or far away... it almost looks like your nails were %95 dry... and then you fell asleep and rolled over on them.... 2.) they don't necessarily sang, however they do somewhat catch things.. . they also hold on to dirt... Not only dirt... but... ok... Say for instance you apply makeup with your fingers or you're applying some body cream that has color or shimmer... the nail bits hold on to it...  They are a great price, and are readily available... The lacquer DOES take on a bit more personality when a top coat is applied... however as you can tell from the photos... it still leave a lot to be desired...

With the success of Crackle, Magnetic & insta drying nail polish from Sally Hansen.. I can excuse this miss... along with the misses of Fuzzy coat and a few others ;)


My so-so experience has tamed my desire to try the WHOLE collection. Don't get me wrong these are cool... and if you know a girl who collects nail polish... get her ONNNNE &&& a good bottle of top coat!!! They're at least worth the sentiment...   They come in an array of popular colors such as Mint, black white & red...   I do hear they have glittery ones as well so hopefully they will be a bit more fun!! Happy hunting!

Bobbi Brown Foundation Review & Tutorial





So, I have been a fan of the Bobbi Brown color theory for a while. According to Ms.Brown's theory is that all tones have a warm base... at least when it comes to makeup... I used to wear COOL toned foundation (what's YOUR undertone) exclusively. Once oxidation would set in, I'd be a MESS!


I decided to try out warmer foundations after a while, and found that I get a better more natural look.... I DO however still use cool bronzers (MY favorite Bronzers) around the edges of my face.... Using the two toned method.., I have found works on most to ALL skin types and tones.... OK so on with the review....

Upon my 1st impression I was in love with it for superficial reasons. The packaging has a matte frosty feel. I liked the smell, and am a HUGE fan of PUMP foundations... Once I got over the smell the packaging, how it felt in my hands and the fact that it was a HIGHLY raved about product... I commenced with applying it.

LOVE! Okay... Let me start by saying I LOVE the way it feels when it 1st goes on... it's smooth and moisturizing with out being to gooey or oily feeling... which brings me to the fact that... it's OIL free. It's GEL based and you can tell RIGHT AWAY! Next thing I LOVED was it's matte oily free, gel based, however it doesn't look DRY dead or cakey...


The fact is... I'm a darker complected woman living in LA and I am not 12... so the fact that this wears as well as it looks and performs in the heat for 12+ hours is AMAZING to me...

I hear that this foundation does NOT compare to the Bobbi Brown Natural finish, I have NOT tried it yet but am anxious to! If you have tried it leave a comment below letting me know what you think!
