Pretty in Pink - OPI's Strawberry Margarita and L'oreal Magic Topcoat in The True Diamond

Hello June!

      I finally got around to doing my nails again! It's been so long. I wanted to share with you one of my favorite creme pinks, perfect for the spring and especially for the summer. This is OPI's Strawberry Margarita. Two coats will give you full opacity and it applies very easily. For my accent nail, I used L'oreal's Magic Topcoat in 'The True Diamond.' It's a beautiful white or silver microglitter polish with a silvery sheen that applies very easily too.

Covergirl Outlast Stay Brilliant Glosstini - Hunger Games Collection - Pyro Pink

Hello there!

      I have another polish post for you guys! It is Covergirl's Outlast Stay Brilliant Glosstini in Pyro Pink from the Hunger Games Collection. I have previous posts on two other polishes from the same collection that you can check out: Inferno and Violet Flicker.

 

      Like the other polishes I've tried in the collection, this polish has lots of fine silver and pink shimmers or microglitters, giving the polish a very nice shimmery effect. Also, the polish dries very quickly and applies very easily even with 3 coats of polish. I finished the polish off with Essie's Good To Go! topcoat, which is a fast dry top coat. I used 3 coats to get the opacity needed for my nails, but I think those with smaller nails can get away with 2 coats. I like that it's a darker pink color that's not in your face, making it a nice color for all year round. It has good staying power, like the other polishes, lasting well over a week without any chipping.
      It is a small-sized polish or mini polish that consists of only 3.5 ml of product. I managed to get the polishes for $2 or under each so it's not too bad if you can get them on a deal. How many of us actually ever use up all of a full-sized  nail polish anyway? I know this was advertised as limited edition collection but I still see them around in drugstores now so they'll probably still be around for awhile.
      Thanks for reading and have a nice day! :)

Covergirl Outlast Stay Brilliant Glosstini - Hunger Games Collection - Violet Flicker

      I finally got around to trying another Covergirl Outlast Stay Brilliant Glosstini that is part of the Hunger Games Collection. My first review was on Inferno; you can check that out here if you're interested. Now here are some pictures and then a quick rundown of my thoughts!

Topcoat used is Good to Go! by Essie.

Likes:

• Like the Inferno polish, this one dries quickly, which is always one of the most important things for me.
• Applies easily
• Pretty color
• Very glittery! Contains blue, purple/pink microglitters.

Dislikes:

• Very sheer; needed 3 coats for full opacity

      This color is very sheer compared to Inferno which I only needed 2 coats of. Even though this is very sheer, opacity can be achieved and the color is easily buildable. It is a dark, pretty, glittery purple color that is good for fall and because of it's glittery property it can definitely be a festive, holiday color as well. It would also make a nice topcoat, adding a bit of sparkle to your nails.
