Dashing Diva Ultra Shine Gell Palette review

Hey guys! Today I am reviewing the Dashing Diva Ultra Shine Gell Palette. So let me start with saying these were abt $5 USD from General Dollar. These are essantially just stick on gel nail strips. I wasn't expecting anything huge being the amount you get and the fact they were $5 USD however, omg you guys these are amazing. They went on pretty easy, you just match the sizes and then file the ends to size one you apply them, they are a little hard to file down being thicker gel but nothing terribly hard. As far as lasting these things did not chip once when I had them on the whole like 2 or 3 weeks I wore them, I only removed them because my nails were growing out. They did wanna come up a few times but I could literally just smooth them back out with my finger and they were perfectly fine. I wore these while working (just an office job so nothing hard there) and also while cleaning and at the beach the they were great and stayed put. I will 100% get more of these and totally recom...

Pretty Woman Faux Nails Review

Hey guys!! Today I am reviewing the Pretty Woman Faux Nails. Sorry the photo isnt amazing quality, i was not originally gonna review these but decided to after putting them on, So putting them on initailly was quite easy, the glue tube that came with it was easy to open and squeeze and I really didn't get too much glue on me. Now once they were on the first day I had to reglue 5 nails. They were popping off when I would try and do things. That being said- by day 2, they didn't want to come off- I get annoyed quickly with long nails and wanted to remove them and had some difficulty (because i was trying to pop them off- dont do that lol). So overall I would say make sure to glue these down well and be sure they are stuck stuck, but if you do that they are quite nice- they didnt bend when i was doing things and once i got them reglued they had a pretty strong hold. My first immpression was not great with the popping off but after i fixed them they were good.  

Kiss Nails Dip Kit Review

Hey guys!! So today I thought I would review a nail product, I love getting SNS but don't often have the money to do so, so I decided to try this after seeing my friend get it. So fist and foremost I will tell you this does not come with any instructions or any nail glue. So I had to google those and be sure to grab some glue when I got these (thankfully I was told there was no glue by my friend) Aside from that though the nails that come with it are pretty decent, they are standard long nails, I cut them down quite a lot which takes a while to do and reshape, but that is just how those types of nails are. You get a thing of gel stuff you use to apply the powder and an activator, once I googled how to do it it was pretty straight forward, I did dip a couple more times than the instructions said to but that is just because that is what I have had them do at the nail salon. This was overall really easy to do, putting on the fake nails was the hardest part honestly. I only kept these ...

Elegant Touch Bare Nails

Hey guys! So first off I don't really do fake nails very often and these are the first glue on ones I have bought and tried. I chose these because I was watching Jazzybum on youtube and they are the ones she uses and said they are really good so I was like well ok I'll try those because her nails always look great. So doing these isn't too hard, they are actually fairly easy aside from the glue sticking to my fingers, but as far as applying them, cutting and filing it isn't too hard. So these actually did stay on fairly well for the most part, I think they lasted like a few days before any popped off. I tried to still do my normal stuff with the fake nails to see how they would hold up, I think you do have to be kinda gentle with them because if you get into too much that can pull at them or push them up they will pop off, so not super usable but they stay on just for like light activity. I do quite like them and they look really pretty, these were the bare ones so I co...

Just Bee Product Review

Hey guys!! I was gifted all these products so I thought I would do a little review on them!! (These are my honest opinions) Just Bee is a vegan company that uses natural ingredients in there products, I do not specifically look for vegan items, but I still think that is pretty cool! The are the lip shimmer's, I actually like these quite a lot, not only are they moisturizing but the add a little tint of color to the lips which is great. It is there, but subtle. This is the cuticle cream, you use it at night before bed and rub it into your cuticles. It is super smooth and moisturizing and I really like this as my cuticles need help lol The are the lip balms as you can probably tell. I am a little mixed on these, some of them feel really soft and moisturizing while some feel a bit dry, not sure why the different but just thought it would be good to mention. That being said the ones that are softer I do really like (I'm not sure if it has anything ...

Santee Mirror Effect Nail Polish Review

Hey guys!! Today I'm reviewing this new nail polish I got from a new app I found.  The app is called Hush and has cheap makeup and cheap dupes. I decided to spend $10 dollars and see what I would get. This nail polish was 1 dollar I believe. It goes on nicely and dries very quickly. It took 2 coats. It actually managed to last for about 6 days before really chipping badly. Which I was surprised by although I'm only doing errands and office work now. I definitely wouldn't say it's the best out there but for a dollar? I'd recommend it.

Kleancolor Nail to Toe Nail Art Pens Review

As you guys can see this was taken a while ago. I got these because they were super cheap on the app Hush. I really want to learn to do nail art because I love doing things like that but I am awful at my nails. It just isn't my forte so I thought these may help. They are not difficult to use, overall applying the polish with these works pretty well, sometimes it can come out too thick or thin but that is all in how you use them. My issue with these though, although they can work well and look good, is that half the time the polish in them doesn't really fully adhere and will come off taking off the polish underneath with it. I am not sure why this is and why it doesn't happen every time but nonetheless I thought it was a big thing to mention. Would I recommend these? Debatable, if it is all you can afford, yes, they are decent for the price. If you have the extra money though, go for a higher quality brand.

HUSH App Review

Hey guys!! So I wanted to do this post quite a while ago and never quite got to it, but I am going to do it now. lol I found this app and thought it looked really interesting although I was skeptical because it was so cheap. So I decided to take a small bit of money and test out some cheap makeup products. I got everything within a decent amount of time and it was all packaged nicely. As far as product quality goes, it isn't bad quality, it's about what I would expect for the price, but it isn't amazing either. That being said if you are new to makeup or just wanna play around with it, this stuff isn't bad. I have even seen some brands I know on there so they have some good stuff, but also some eh stuff. For the price though I think it can be worth testing some stuff to see what you think.  These are the things I tested and I will add some reviews on all the products soon:

Gel Nails Review

Hey guys!! So I really wanted a design this time so I decided to try out gel as I have heard good things about it. They paint your nails with gel polish and put them under a UV light multiple times to harden and dry. It takes a little while, but it's not too bad. Still only like 20-30 minutes to finish. This is week one and as you can see they look very nice. It's a pretty design and it looks more like normal nail polish as it doesn't really add layers. Week one was good, no chips or anything. Here is week 2. From afar they still look pretty good, you can't see any major issues which I am happy with. However, Saturday morning I chipped one trying to open some makeup so these do not stand up to things and help my nails with strength at all. A couple days later I was opening my car door and my hand slipped because it was raining and I hit my nails. A tiny piece of my nail chipped off, leaving gel behind. So the gel held up, but someh...

SNS Nails Review

So this is from the day I first got them done. They looks super shiny and pretty and I so far kinda love it. The process only took about 30-45 minutes to complete and was quite simple. The nail tech did multiple layers of polish and powder until it was how he wanted it. They had a very nice selection to choose from as well.  It kinda scares me about how my nails might look when this is removed simply because a drimal (is that spelled right??) was used on my nails for this. So I will let you guys know how that turns out. This is from week two as you can see my nails still look very much the same. No chipping or anything. I think one nail has a tiny scratch, but you can't even see it so no biggie. You can definitely see more of my actual nail now, but that's simply from them growing out more.  So far they are holding up quite nicely. They are very strong with this on and aren't breaking and cracking as I open things. In this photo from week 3 you c...

Lottie London Nail Polish Review

Hey guys!! Tonight I'm reviewing the Lottie London Nail Polish. Let me start off by saying I love the color of this nail polish. It is super pretty. It takes two coats to get the right color, but that's pretty normal. This lasted almost a week if not slightly more for me before chipping and that was including a couple days in kennel at work. I really like this, I'd totally recommend this brand. :)

Nail Medic Charcoal Infused Nail Polish Review

Hey guys!! Today I'm reviewing the Nail Medic Charcoal Infused Nail Polish.  This definitely dries quicker than most polishes which is nice.  It doesn't however avoid chipping or anything like that when I'm working kennel,  so I'd say the actual quality is on par with all my other polishes. I do like the color. It's kind of a blueish gray when on. Overall I'd recommend this.

Adesse New York Organic Infused Gel Effect Nail Lacquer in Deception Review

Hey guys! ! Tonight I'm reviewing the Adesse New York Organic Infused Gel Effect Nail Lacquer.  I like the color of this very much.  It's pretty good, I really haven't had much chipping or anything from it like I usually do with polishes. It also doesn't smell as like chemically as most polishes do when you first paint your nails,  so if that bothers you this might be a good alternative.  Overall I'd recommend this.

Trust Fund Beauty Nail Polish Review

Hey guys! Tonight I'm not necessarily going to fully review this because I've previously reviewed this type of  polish . So if you guys want to see my thoughts on it you can look at that.  I will however say I love this color (it's called Game Changer) and have gotten compliments on it when I wear it. 

Sally Hansen Hard As Nails Nail Polish Review

Hey guys!  Tonight I'm reviewing the Sally Hansen Hard As Nails Nail Polish.  This is pretty good overall. I did chip it really quickly but it was for the most part my fault. I think for most people it'd work well, but my job in particular right now is very hard on my nails so I can't blame the polish for that. I think I'm the price range it's in it works well.

LA Colors Color Last Nail Polish Review

Hey guys!  How's it going? Today I'm reviewing the LA Colors Color Last Nail Polish. These are awesome.  Funny enough I bought the first one because I wanted a new polish but didn't wanna spend more than a couple dollars, but they are actually pretty good quality especially considering the price. Even working at a vet they stay on decently well for me. If I'm not working they stay on much longer. They have great color and there is a decent variety of color choices. I haven't tested them with the top coat but that's supposed to made them last even longer.  I'd absolutely recommend these if you want a good quality cheaper nail polish. 

Meg Lovey Dovey Nail Polish Review

Hey guys! Tonight I'm reviewing the Meg Lovey Dovey Nail Polish.  So far this is staying on pretty well. Personally I kinda like the combo of colors, although I prefer the grayish one.  I think the other one might make a nice base coat since it's kinda skin colored.  If you're interested in a guys opinion though, my fiancé hates this. He said it reminds him of puke. So that's great.  He actually got a little more descriptive but I won't do that.  Lol  As far as quality though I think this is good.

Ciaté London GELOLOGY Top Coat Review

Hey guys!! I hope you're having a good weekend so far.  I thought I'd do a quick review tonight of the Ciaté London GELOLOGY Top Coat.  This is your typical clear top coat. It makes your nails look glossy and all that.  I honestly don't think it makes my polish last much longer. My polish chipped in almost the same amount of time.  So if you wanna add glossiness, I'd recommend this.  If you want to make your polish last longer, not so much.
