So over the weekend my mommy, a friend of ours and myself went on a little (much deserved) girls day out at the mall. It was great , I always have the best time with my mom. We're "like this" *crosses fingers* lol. So anyways, while there I made a pit stop for some much needed new jeans. Truth is that no jeans fit me like American Eagle jeans. So while I was headed for the checkout this huge bowl of nail polishes caught my eye. They had a few neons and the colors I'm about to show you today. They are so cute. I love the bottles (they hold a little less than a Hard Candy bottle).
So these pretties are un-named. I would call 90 Miles to Cuba. I know that's a bit obscure but basically from Key West, FL to Cuba it's 90 miles. This color reminds me of Key West beach water. But I didn't want to come up with something so obvious lol. Key West beach water is literally this exact shade of Turquiose. Just stunning. The shimmer in this so perfectly captures that essence of Key West. The formula for this was a BITCH. It was like that of a neon. You know? Where it is streaky and likes to drag. This was Three patient coats and I will say that it is so worth it. The final product is a beautiful and calming creamy Turquiose shimmer.
And this one I couldn't think of anything cool so I'm just gonna call it Coral Bits. This one is a Coral-y- Red. Sooo pretty. I'm not sure how I chose this over the pretty neons but something about the juiciness of this color was speaking to me. Not quite Red, not quite Coral but something in-between. This one unlike 90 miles to Cuba has a dreamy formula. It borders on being jelly like and it is super easy to work. This was two coats.
For last minute little impulse buys I am super happy with these cuties. I am willing to get over the fact that the Turquiose shade has a crappy formula because I managed to solve the issue in Three coats and the color payoff is so worth it. I am also really loving the Coral shade because it is so perfect for the coming summer months.
What do you think? Will you be checking your AE's for polishes?

ReplyDeleteamerican eagle jeggings are amazing. they're not really jeggings though, because they're still structured jeans, just super skinny. i refuse to wear anything else! hahaha.
ReplyDeletei looooove that turquoise color! i might have to see if they have them at my AE!
Love these colours & the new BM plate images. Now I have to go see if my American Eagle has these nail polishes!
ReplyDeleteDidn't know AE made nail polish. Will have to check it out next time I'm there.
ReplyDeleteThe aqua color reminds me of For Audrey, plus shimmer. Is it close?
I love love love the teal with the BM stamp!
ReplyDeleteLoving both of those, but the coral especially! And anything that's easier to apply gets a plus in my book lol.
