NOTD: Forever 21's Love & Beauty Lavender!

Two (2) Coats of Love & Beauty Lavender Nail Polish & One (1) Coat of Seche Vite Top Coat
Two (2) Coats of Love & Beauty Lavender Nail Polish & One (1) Coat of Seche Vite Top Coat
Essence Lavender is a milky, mid-tone, dusty lavender purple. It's not as pale as most of the lavenders I own, which I'm actually pretty happy about because I don't need so many of the same nail polish shades.

I love the formula on this one - it applied opaquely with one coat, so worst case scenario, if you're running out the door without your nails polished, you can quickly paint your nails and be done with one coat and not have to worry about sheerness or a streaky mess. I applied two coats, and it came out perfect!

I'm currently on the lookout for my summer favorites. What are some of your favorite nail polishes or nail trends? Let me know in the comments below! ☺

Also, if you haven't already, please enter my GIVEAWAY by clicking HERE! It will end Saturday, July 16th at 11:59 CST. Please enter!

    I wasn't aware F21 has nail polishes. F21 here doesn't have it. The color looks nice on you.

    This is beautiful!! Is Lavender the exact name of the shade? I can't find it on the website!

    Thank you everyone for your lovely comments and recommendations on colors! I'm going to have a look at them all.

    socialitedreams - Do you find the lasting power to be better with Butter London polishes? I'm really curious to try them!

    Kayleigh - F21 is a little weird and sometimes lists them by different names on the site. It's called "Pale Iris" on the site, but it's currently out of stock.
