Dior Spring Nails - Blossom 132

Hey Everyone. First and foremost - HAPPY FRIDAY!!! Gotta love a Friday. I thought I'd leave you all with a pretty Spring color this week - the Dior Blossom nail polish. They have six colors total in their spring line, but when I saw Blossom, I knew I wanted it. I love a good peachy color for the Spring time. I do enjoy Dior polishes as they have that same wide brush that's flat and cut rounded at the top like the YSL polishes. It makes it really easy to paint your nails as it fits perfectly into your nail beds and fans out nicely to coat your entire nail in one to two strokes. I think the color is really pretty and quite universally flattering. It's very fresh. A peach color with golden shimmer running through it. It is more of a sheer nail color. With two coats you can still slightly see through it which I don't mind at all because it does look like the color in the bottle meaning it's intended to be that way. If you're looking for something opaque, you'd have to do three coats to get that with this one so I wouldn't recommend this if that's what you're expecting. I, however, was very happy with it as it feels like a very light and happy color. Quite pleased!

Hope you all are doing wonderful!
Talk soon. Kisses, J

Favorite Summer Nail Polishes


A few weeks ago I went to visit my lovely cousin on the east coast (Hi Soph). Upon my arrival there, I had some time to spare before meeting up with her and found myself wandering through Duane Reade. Honest, I was just trying to kill time. Plus, I still had my luggage in hand so I was just going to do a little perusing. 30 minutes later, I was literally spilling all over the place and ended up at the register solely because I ran out of hands and arms to carry everything! Way too much money later, amongst other things, I walked out with some of my new favorite nail polishes. I seriously cannot stop wearing them. I picked up three Essie polishes from their 2013 Neons collection and they are to die for.

DJ Play That Song - Bright neon plum
Bottle Service - Neon fuchsia pink
Boom Boom Room - Bright neon pink

If you haven't already, you should definitely check these out. They are already pretty bright and neon, but if you want to be uber shocking, put a coat of white nail polish down before applying these and woah! Good stuff. Talk soon.
