Pink Wednesday: 24/7

Gotta love a neon pink!

no top coat
In VA we've been having really weird winter weather and I wanted something bright to perk me up. Sinful Colors' 24/7 was just the ticket - this little hottie goes on blinding in three coats! Like most neons it dries a little matte, nothing that can't be remedied with a top coat.

I'm fairly new to Sinful polishes and I have to say I've been really pleased with them so far! They feature a very smooth 3-free formula and a great color range. The only thing I'm not crazy about is their brush - I feel like the bristles are a little stiff, but at $1.99 I can definitely deal with it! On a student budget these are a fantastic treat :)

Hope you are having a lovely Wednesday!

To Buy or Not To Buy

Welcome to my first post! I'm Maggie, a college student with a serious nail polish obsession, and I'd like to share my addiction with you :)


no top coat

This is Essie's To Buy or Not To Buy, a pale lavender with a very subtle iridescent sparkle. The color went on smoothly and dried more opaque than I thought it would. Three coats for full coverage, though I used four to make sure it was feeling photogenic. As you can see, the glitter doesn't really translate from the bottle.

I did some stamping to add a little more interest, but it was still missing something...

with Orly - Love Each Other

...so I added a coat of Orly's Love Each Other! It's a minor change and was a little difficult to capture with my camera, but it added the sparkle that I wanted and made all the difference in real life. These two are made for each other!

Thanks for reading and I hope you'll enjoy my blog!
