Pic from today..

Spent some quality time with my BFF today! We always have the greatest time together even when we're doing nothing..
Every time we go out together, we get numerous questions if we're sisters. Do you think we look anything alike?

NOTD: Essie Mint Candy Apple!

Two (2) coats of Essie Mint Candy Apple (No top coat)
Essie Mint Candy Apple is a polish I've wanted ever since it launched in Essie's Winter of 2009 Collection. I finally got a hold a bottle in a swap, and I really like it! I think it's a perfect color for Spring.

Mint Candy Apple is a creme formula, pastel, whitened green. The formula of this polish is great. It didn't apply streaky to my nails, it dried fairly quick and looked completely opaque with two coats.

NOTD: China Glaze For Audrey!

One (1) coat of China Glaze For Audrey (No top coat)
For Audrey is the popular Sea Green/Turquoise/Tiffany's Box Blue polish that everyone has raved about. I personally really love this polish and I think it's a great color to wear on your toes when you're sporting a tan! It is true, the color is an exact replica of the Tiffany's Box Blue.

As for the polish itself, the formula is quite thick - thicker than most polishes I own. It is opaque, but if you don't have a steady hand.. it may apply streaky. I attempted to apply this in a moving vehicle (I wasn't the one driving of course, LOL) and it was a streaky mess. I later applied it at my kitchen table and it applied much better. Two coats with this is necessary for the best outcome.

NOTD: Sally Hansen Fuchsia Power Hard as Nails X-treme Wear Nail Color

Sally Hansen Fuchsia Power

Sally Hansen Fuchsia Power

I picked this up the other day at Target for just under $3. The color is gorgeous for the summer. I applied 2 coats and a clear top coat. The formula is very thick and creamy.. I thought it was going to take forever to dry, but It dried fairly quick. Not too crazy about the thickness, but it makes for a very opaque nail with two coats. You definitely wouldn't need three coats.. and you can maybe pull off even one. I actually took the photo today and did my nails 3 days ago.. no chips or nicks yet! Hope I didn't just jinx myself.. :)
